WEAK/BAD BATTERY
The UPS automatically tests the battery’s condition and will illuminate the Weak/
Bad Battery LED and sound the alarm. This alarm will be repeated until the
batteries pass a self test. If the battery is weak, bad or disconnected, the
Weak/Bad Battery LED will illuminate and the alarm will beep three times every
five-minutes until the battery is reconnected or replaced. It is recommended
that the UPS be allowed to charge overnight before performing a battery test to
confirm a Weak/Bad Battery condition.
NOTE: If the UPS has a Weak/Bad Battery Alarm after reconnecting or replac-
ing the batteries, the user must initiate a self test to clear the Weak/Bad Bat-
tery Alarm. To initiate a self test see section 4 "SELF TEST".

OVERLOAD
When the amount of load attached to the UPS exceeds its power rating, the
Overload LED will illuminate (AC mode only) and the UPS will sound a constant
alarm (AC and Battery modes). This alarm will remain on until the excess load
is removed or the UPS’s self protection circuit shuts the UPS down. If the UPS
shuts down because of an Overload condition in the battery mode, the UPS
must perform an Inverter function or a Self Test to clear the Overload Alarm.

POWER MONITORING SOFTWARE
The UPS comes with a Power Monitoring Software CD. See the software CD
for the installation of the Power Monitoring Software.

USB PORT
The USB protocol is HID. The HID USB driver is standard in the Windows OS.
Simply plug the USB cable into the UPS and the computer then follow the
prompts on the screen.

OPTION SLOT
The option slot on the rear panel of the UPS is for option cards. Contact your
local dealer for the available option cards.

ALARMS

ON BATTERY
When the UPS is operating on the batteries, the On-Battery LED will illuminate
and the audible alarm will sound once every ten-seconds. The alarm will stop
once the UPS returns to the AC normal mode.

LOW BATTERY WARNING
The UPS will sound two beeps every five-seconds when the battery reserve
runs low. This condition will continue until AC returns or the UPS shuts down
from battery exhaustion.

UPS FAULT
When the UPS detects a hardware fault, the Fault LED will illuminate and the
UPS will sound a constant alarm. The fault condition, in some instances, may
be reset by turning the UPS off and then on.

RJ11 REPO (Remote Emergency Power Off) PORT
Connect one end of the RJ11 cable to the REPO port and the other end of the
RJ11 cable to the EPO switch. In the AC or the Battery mode short pin4 to pin5
for approximately 0.5-seconds to shutdown the UPS. The UPS must be turned
off and then back on again to restart the UPS.
