CHARGING THE BATTERY
The Enterprise 1U Rackmount Series UPS will charge the internal batteries
whenever the UPS is connected to an AC source. It is recommended that the
UPS's batteries be charged for a minimum of 4 hours before use. The UPS
may be used immediately, however, the “On-Battery” runtime may be less than
normally expected. NOTE: If the UPS is going to be out of service or stored for
a prolonged period of time, the batteries must be recharged for at least twenty-
four hours every ninety days.
CHECKING THE SITE WIRING FAULT
After plugging in the UPS, check the Site Wiring Fault (SWF) LED on the
control panel of the UPS. If the SWF LED is illuminated, the UPS is plugged
into an improperly wired AC outlet. If the UPS indicates a Site Wiring Fault
(SWF), have a Qualified Electrician correct the problem.
COMMUNICATIONS PORT CONNECTION (OPTIONAL)
MINUTEMAN Power Monitoring Software and interface cables kits can be used
with the Enterprise 1U Rackmount Series UPS. Use only MINUTEMAN or
MINUTEMAN approved interface cables with these UPSs. Connect the inter-
face cable (Serial or USB) to the appropriate communications port on the rear
panel of the UPS. Connect the other end of the cable to the device that will be
monitoring/controlling the UPS. NOTE: Connecting to the Communications
Port is optional. The UPS works properly without this connection.
CONNECTING THE UPS TO AN AC SOURCE
Plug the UPS into a two pole, three wire, grounded receptacle only. Do not use
extension cords, adapter plugs, or surge strips.
NETWORK/PHONE/FAX/MODEM PROTECTION CONNECTION (OPTIONAL)
Connect a 10/100 Base-T network, single line phone, Fax or Modem line to the
RJ11/45 protection sockets on the rear panel of the UPS. This connection will
require another length of telephone or network cable. The cable coming from
the telephone service or networked system is connected to the port marked
“IN”. The equipment to be protected is connected to the port marked "OUT".
NOTE: Connecting to the Network/Phone/Fax/Modem protection socket con-
nection is optional. The UPS works properly without this connection.
CONNECTING YOUR EQUIPMENT
Plug the equipment into the output receptacles on the rear panel of the UPS.
Do not use extension cords, adapter plugs or surge strips on the output of the
UPS. Ensure that you do not exceed the maximum output rating of the UPS
(refer to the information label on the UPS or the Electrical Specifications in this
manual).
CAUTION!
DO NOT connect a laser printer to the output receptacles on the
UPS, unless the UPS is rated 2000VA or greater. A laser printer
draws significantly more power when printing than at idle and
may overload the UPS.
