OVERVIEW

The BM850AVRLCD/BM1000AVRLCD/BM1350AVRLCD/BM1500AVRLCD provides protection from utility power that may

not always be safe for your devices. The BM850AVRLCD/BM1000AVRLCD feature 1,080 Joules and the BM1350/1500AVRLCD feature 1,500 Joules of surge protection. This UPS provides battery backup during power disruptions using maintenance-free batteries. Each model of UPS ensures consistent power to your computer or other critical devices and includes access to software that allows you to monitor the UPS from a personal computer.

AUTOMATIC VOLTAGE REGULATOR

The BM850AVRLCD/BM1000AVRLCD/BM1350AVRLCD/BM1500AVRLCD adjusts inconsistent utility power voltage to normal levels that are safe for your equipment. The Automatic Voltage Regulation(AVR) feature of this device can take erratic incoming utility power and correct it to safe levels. AVR automatically increases utility power that is too low or decreases utility power that is too high to a consistent 110 or 120 volts.

CONNECT TO UTILITY POWER

Make sure the UPS is stood up vertically on a flat surface. Connect the AC power cord to a 2-pole, 3-wire grounded receptacle (wall outlet). Make sure the wall branch outlet is protected by a fuse or circuit breaker and does not also provide power to service equipment demanding large amounts of power (e.g. air conditioner, copier, etc.). The UPS will start to charge its internal battery. The UPS will not turn on automatically when plugged in. For best results, charge the battery for eight hours prior to initial use.

DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR EQUIPMENT

1. To determine the power requirements of your equipment, ensure that the equipment plugged into the outlet does not exceed the UPS's rated capacity. If the rated capacity of the unit is exceeded, the UPS may overload and shut down or the circuit breaker may trip.
2. There are many factors that can affect the amount of power that your equipment will require. We suggest that the load placed on the battery outlets not exceed 80% of the UPS's capacity.

PLUG IN EQUIPMENT

Note: Before plugging in equipment, make sure the UPS is turned off and unplugged. Do not plug a laser printer, paper shredder, copier, space heater, vacuum cleaner, sump pump or other large electrical device into the UPS. The power requirements of these devices will overload and possibly damage the UPS.

Battery Backup Outlets

With the UPS turned off and unplugged, connect equipment requiring battery backup to the "Battery Backup" outlets. These outlets provide battery backup, EMI filtering, line conditioning, and surge protection. Battery power is automatically provided in case of power failure.

Surge Protected Outlets

Connect other devices requiring surge protection to the "Surge Protected" outlets. These outlets do not provide power during power failure.

Connect Modem/Phone Line

This UPS protects a single line (1 in/1 out) phone, modem, or fax machine from surges. To protect a fax machine, phone or modem, connect a telephone or network cable from the wall jack outlet to the IN jack of the UPS. Connect a telephone cable or network cable from the OUT jack of the UPS to a fax machine, telephone, modem or network device.

TURN THE UPS ON

To turn on the UPS unit, press the power switch for at least two seconds. The LCD display will light up. If an overload is detected, the UPS alarm will go off and the unit will beep continuously every 0.5 seconds. To fix this, turn the UPS off and unplug at least one piece of equipment from the battery-power supplied outlets. Make sure the Circuit Breaker button is depressed and turn the UPS on again. For optimal battery charge, always leave the UPS plugged into the AC outlet. To turn off the UPS unit, press the power switch again. The LCD display will turn off.
