Basic Operation

(continued)

Power On Indicator

This LED is illuminated when
the utility condition is normal
and the UPS outlets are pro-
viding clean, protected power.

Line Fault Indicator

This LED will illuminate to warn the user that a
wiring problem such as a bad/missing ground or
reversed wiring exists within the AC receptacle.
If illuminated, disconnect all equipment and contact
an electrician to insure outlet is properly wired.

Unsafe Voltage Indicator

This LED will illuminate to inform the user that
an unsafe line voltage is present and that the
UPS has switched to battery power. This could
be either an over-voltage or under-voltage.

Battery Mode Indicator

This illuminates during utility failure or
an unsafe voltage condition, indicating
that the battery is supplying power to
the connected equipment.

AVR Indicator

This indicates that the UPS is operating in automatic voltage regulation mode. When the led is illu-
minated continuously, it indicates an input over-voltage and the UPS unit reduces (bucks) the volt-
age to the normal operating range. When the led is flashing, it indicates that the input line voltage
is low and that the UPS is increasing (boosts) input voltage to the normal range.

Load Level Indicator

This is a visual indication of the
UPS load.

The 1st arrow will illuminate when
the load is above 25%, the 2nd
above 50% and the 3rd above
75%. The 4th arrow will flash
when the load is between 85%
and 100%.

Battery Level Indicator

This is a visual indication of the
battery charge. If battery capac-
ity is under 25%, no indicator
LED will illuminate and UPS
starts beeping (if the audible
alarm is enabled).

Circuit Breakers for
Overload Protection

Resettable circuit
breakers provide
optimal overload
protection.

Non-Critical-Load Outlets

Four battery powered, surge
protected and AVR outlets for
connected equipment insures
temporary uninterrupted oper-
ation of connected equipment
during a power failure.

Critical Load Outlets

Two battery powered, surge
protected and AVR outlets for
critical-load equipment
insures temporary uninter-
rupted operation of connected
equipment during a power
failure.

IR Control Section

Learning Control Switches – Push to program or test the IR function
IR Detector Window – Receives the IR signal to be learned
Indicator LED’s – Indicates learning status
Output Delay Switches – Set the desired time delay between a power failure and
when the IR signals are sent to the connected equipment
IR Output Jacks – Standard 1/8” (3.5mm) mono jack for connection to an IR
flasher (IR flashers not included)

RS232 Serial Communication Port

The serial port allows connection and communication between
the UPS and a HTPC (home theater personal computer) or home
automation system. If used temporarily during setup (with the
included software), it allows the installer to program a number of
variables including the Critical Load Battery Threshold. See the
software documentation for more information.
