5. Secure the DC battery cable to both the rear of the UPS and the rear of the EBP by using M3 x 8
screws provided (2 each per connector end).
6. Repeat the above procedure for testing and securing each additional EBP required.
CAUTION: Do not use extension cords when connecting input AC power to UPS or EBP’s
7. Move the DC circuit breaker on the rear of each EBP to the ON position. At this point the UPS
will need to be started.
8. If the EBP’s are plugged into an AC source and properly installed, the internal batteries will be
charged when acceptable voltage is present. EBP’s must be charged for a minimum of 6 hours
for full battery time.
NOTE: If the EBP is going to be out of service or stored for six months or longer, the
batteries must be recharged for at least 36 hours every six months.
Extended Battery Pack Q & A
1. Which EBP’s do I connect to an AC input source?
• It is possible to plug in every EBP into an AC input source. The more connected the
faster the recharge time. It is recommended that every third EBP be connected to
incoming AC utility to properly charge the batteries in a complete system. Leaving too
many chargers connected may cause an over charge situation which could damage the
batteries.
2. Which LED’s are supposed to be lit on the front of each EBP?
• When an EBP is connected to an AC input source and the unit is charging, a GREEN LED
on the front of the EBP will be illuminated.
3. Are any LED’s on the front of the EBP supposed to be lit if it is not connected to an AC input
source?
• No. The UPS and/or the EBP’s that are plugged into an AC input source are responsible
for charging the entire system. The EBP is still working and has the capability of
providing DC voltage when needed. No LED on the front bezel will be illuminated.
4. The EBP is connected to an AC input source, why does the LED on the front of the EBP turn ON
and OFF intermittently, and does this mean this EBP is not working?
• The GREEN LED on the front of each EBP indicates that the charger contained in the EBP
is charging. Under certain conditions when the batteries are 100% charged, the charger
in the EBP will shut off and the LED will no longer be illuminated. This is normal
operation for the EBP. The EBP is working properly.
