electrical outlet that is installed near the equipment and 
is easily accessible.

receptacles. The instantaneous current drawn by this type 
of printer can overload the UPS. 

   

Before connecting devices, verify that the UPS will not overload by 
checking that the ratings of the devices do not exceed the UPS 
capacity. If the equipment rating is listed in amps, multiply the number 

of amps by the selected output voltage to determine the VA. 

After verifying that the UPS will not overload: 

 

Connect the device power cords to the output receptacles on the 
rear panel of the UPS (NA/JPN/TWN model).

The Power On, Load 1 and Load 2 LEDs illuminate, indicating that 
power is available at the UPS output receptacles. 

 

 

Charging the UPS batteries 

With the UPS in Standby mode, allow the batteries to charge before 
putting the UPS into service. 

   

 

IMPORTANT:

  Charge the batteries for at least 24 hours 

before supplying backup power to devices. The batteries 

charge to: 

 

90% of their capacity within 4 hours 

 

100% of their capacity within 24 hours 

   

 

Installing the optional UPS Network
