2.9 Communication Port
The communication port on the rear panel of the UPS allows for connection to a
host computer. When used with software communication software you will have
access to important operating information. From your computer screen, you can
monitor input/output voltage, AC frequency, battery voltage, etc., and analyze
power problems. Software will also initiate automatic graceful shutdowns during
extended power failures.
If software and a communication cable are not included in your UPS package,
you can purchase it from your local dealer.
2.10 Start-Up On Battery
When ac input power is not available and the UPS is turned off, the Start-Up
on Battery function can be used to power up your equipment. Do not connect
too much equipment to the UPS during the Start-Up on Battery operation.
1. Disconnect the input ac power cord from the rear panel of the UPS.
2. Press the on/off button on the front panel until the UPS beeps.
3. After you have finished using the UPS, press the on/off button to turn off
the UPS.
2.11 Data-Line Surge Suppression
The data-line surge suppression on the rear panel provides an easy way to
protect a network (RJ45) or modem (RJ11) connection from hazardous spikes.
Connect a 10/Base-T network cable or a single line telephone into the “Line”
socket. To complete the connection, connect another network cable or
telephone line into the “System” socket. The network cable and telephone line
are optional accessories, which may be purchased from your local dealer.
