Connect Power and Equipment to the UPS
Use an APC supplied cable to connect to the Computer Interface Port. DO NOT
use a standard serial interface cable since it is incompatible with the UPS
connector.
• Plug the UPS into a standard receptacle.
• Plug the equipment into the back of the UPS.
• Do not plug laser printers into a UPS of 1000 VA or less, due to the large increase in power
consumption when printing.
• Turn on all connected equipment (the equipment will not be powered until the UPS is turned
on).
• Add any optional accessories. See the literature accompanying the accessory for details.
• Connect ground leads to the TVSS screw (optional). The transient voltage surge suppression
(TVSS) screw provides grounding through the UPS’s power cord ground conductor. See
Rear Panel, page 13, for the location of the screw. To make the connection, loosen the screw
and connect the surge suppression device’s ground lead. Tighten the screw to secure the lead.
Turn on the UPS
Make sure the battery is connected before turning on the UPS!
