Introduction

American Power Conversion Corporation (APC) is the leading national and international manufacturer of state-of-the-art uninterruptible power supplies, redundant switches, power management software, and related equipment. APC products protect hardware, software, and data from power disturbances in business and government offices throughout the world.

The APC Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is designed to prevent blackouts, brownouts, sags, and surges from reaching your computer and other valuable electronic equipment. The UPS filters small utility line fluctuations and isolates your equipment from large disturbances by internally disconnecting from the utility line. The UPS provides continuous power from its internal battery until the utility line returns to safe levels or the battery is discharged.

1: INSTALLATION

Read the Safety Instruction sheet before installing the UPS.

Unpacking

Inspect the UPS upon receipt. APC designed robust packaging for your product. However, accidents and damage may occur during shipment. Notify the carrier and dealer if there is damage.

The packaging is recyclable; save it for reuse or dispose of it properly.

Check the package contents. The package contains the UPS, the front bezel, a literature kit containing one CD, one serial cable, one USB cable, product documentation and Safety Information. The package also includes rails, brackets, and a hardware packet, (necessary for rack mounting the UPS).

230V models: Two IEC jumper cables are included and a utility connector plug is included for use on servers with permanently attached power cords.

The UPS is shipped with the battery disconnected.

Positioning the UPS

Online

The online LED illuminates when the UPS is supplying utility power to the connected equipment. If the LED is not lit, the UPS is either not turned ON, or is supplying battery power.

AVR Trim

This LED illuminates to indicate the UPS is compensating for a high utility voltage.

AVR Boost

This LED illuminates to indicate the UPS is compensating for a low utility voltage.

On Battery

When the on battery power LED is lit the UPS is supplying battery power to the connected equipment. When on battery, the UPS sounds an alarm—four beeps every 30 seconds.

Overload

The LED illuminates and the UPS emits a sustained alarm tone when an overload condition occurs.

Replace Battery

Failure of a battery self-test causes the UPS to emit short beeps for one minute and the replace battery LED illuminates. Refer to Troubleshooting in this manual.

Battery

Disconnected

The replace battery LED flashes and short beep is emitted every two seconds to indicate the battery is disconnected.

Automatic Self-Test

The UPS performs a self-test automatically when turned on, and every two weeks thereafter (by default).

During the self-test, the UPS briefly operates the connected equipment on battery.

If the UPS fails the self-test, the replace battery LED lights and immediately returns to online operation. The connected equipment is not affected by a failed test. Recharge the battery for 24 hours and perform another self-test. If it fails, the battery must be replaced.

Manual Self-Test

Press and hold the button for a few seconds to initiate the self-test.

On Battery Operation

The Smart-UPS switches to battery operation automatically if the utility power fails. While running on battery, an alarm beeps four times every 30 seconds.

Press the 1 Test button (front panel) to silence the UPS alarm (for the current alarm only). If the utility power does not return, the UPS continues to supply power to the connected equipment until the battery is exhausted.

If PowerChute is not being used you must manually save your files and power down before the UPS turns off.

DETERMINING ON BATTERY RUN TIME

UPS battery life differs based on usage and environment. It is recommended that the battery/batteries be changed once every three years. See the APC web site, www.apc.com, for on battery run times.
