CONNECTING POWER AND EQUIPMENT TO THE UPS 1. Hardwire the UPS (see Hardwiring). 2. Connect equipment to the UPS (cables not included for XLT/XLJ/XLTW models). 3. Turn on all connected equipment. To use the UPS as a master on/off switch, be sure that all connected equipment is switched ON. 4. Press the button on the front panel to power up the UPS. The battery charges to 90% capacity during the first three hours of normal operation.
BASIC CONNECTORS Serial Port Ethernet Port EPO Terminal TVSS Screw External Battery Pack Connectors Power management software and interface kits can be used with the UPS. Use only interface kits supplied or approved by APC. Connect the UPS to the network. (Located on Web/SNMP card.) The optional Emergency Power Off (EPO) feature allows connected loads to be immediately de-energized from a remote location, without switching to battery operation (see EPO Option).
2: OPERATION FRONT DISPLAY PANEL Indicator Description Online The UPS is drawing utility power and performing double conversion to supply power to connected equipment (see Troubleshooting). On Battery The UPS is supplying battery power to the connected equipment. Bypass The UPS is in bypass mode, sending utility power directly to connected equipment.
Feature Function Normal /Bypass Manually switch connected equipment to bypass mode, so that utility power is sent directly to connected equipment. Battery operation is not available while the UPS is in bypass mode. (See Troubleshooting.) Cold Start This is not a normal condition. Supply immediate battery power to the UPS and connected equipment (see Troubleshooting). Press and hold the button to power up the UPS and connected equipment. The UPS will emit two beeps.
