To access the front panel communication options, perform the following
steps:

shutdown.

Press and hold the Output

Off button until the long beep

ceases (approximately three seconds).

Unplug the UPS. Wait until all indicators turn off and then
continue to the next step.

2. Plug in the UPS while pressing the Output

Off button until

the alarm beeps. All indicators begin flashing.

3. Press and hold the Output

Off button a second time until the

alarm beeps again.

A single indicator, corresponding with the current setting,
remains flashing.

4. Press the Output

Off button to scroll through the

communication options, top to bottom. Each time you press the
button, the UPS beeps and the next indicator flashes.

NOTE If you do not save a selection within two minutes, the setup automatically
aborts and switches back to the original configuration.

5. Press and hold the Output On button until the alarm beeps to

select and save a communication option. Failure to release the
button immediately after the beep will cause the UPS to abort
the setup.

Normal mode.

NOTE Printer mode selections are the only serial communication modes available
from the front panel.
