• Be sure the air vents on the UPS are not blocked. Allow adequate space for
proper ventilation.
• The battery typically lasts for three to five years. Environmental factors impact
battery life. Elevated ambient temperatures, poor quality AC power, and frequent
short duration discharges will shorten battery life.
• Connect the UPS power cable directly to a wall outlet. Do not use surge

Battery Backup and Surge Protected outlets
When the Back-UPS is receiving input power,
the Surge Protection only outlets and the Battery
Backup with Surge Protection outlets will
supply power to connected equipment. During a
power outage or other AC problems, only the
Battery Backup outlets receive power for a
limited time from the Back-UPS.
Connect equipment such as printers, fax
machines, scanners, or other peripherals that do
not need battery backup power to the Surge
Protection Only outlets. These outlets provide
full-time protection from surges even if the
Back-UPS is switched OFF.
Master and Controlled outlets
To conserve electricity, when the device
connected to Master Outlet goes into Sleep or
Standby mode, or turns Off, the Controlled
device(s) will shut down as well, saving
electricity.
Connect a master device, such as a desktop computer or audio/visual receiver to the Master outlet. Connect
peripheral devices such as a printer, speakers, or a scanner to the Controlled outlets.

Back-UPS Pro 7002
Operation
Power-Saving Function
Power-saving outlets can be used to automatically reduce energy consumption. Just plug your computer
into the Master outlet, and when it is turned OFF or goes into “sleep” or “standby” mode, any peripherals
plugged into the Controlled outlets like speakers, scanners or printers, will also shut off automatically,
eliminating needless electricity waste.
Notes: Devices that provide network services (such as routers, modems, or wireless printers) should not be plugged into the
Controlled outlets. The Back-UPS Pro ships with this Power-Saving feature DISABLED. If you wish to use this feature, follow
the instructions below:
Enable the Power-Saving function. Press and hold MUTE and DISPLAY simultaneously for two seconds. The
Back-UPS will beep to indicate that the feature is enabled. The leaf icon on the display will illuminate.
Disable the Power-Saving function. Press and hold MUTE and DISPLAY simultaneously for two seconds. The
Back-UPS will beep to indicate that the feature is disabled. The leaf icon on the display will extinguish.
Setting the threshold. The amount of power used by a device in Sleep or Standby mode varies between devices. It
may be necessary to adjust the threshold at which the Master outlet signals the Controlled outlets to shut down.
1. Ensure a master device is connected to the Master outlet. Put that device into Sleep or Standby mode, or turn it
OFF.
2. Press
DISPLAY and MUTE simultaneously and hold for six seconds, until the leaf icon flashes three times and the
Back-UPS beeps three times.
3. The Back-UPS will now recognize the threshold level of the Master device and save it as the new threshold setting.
Power-Saving Display
The display interface can be configured to be continuously illuminated, or to save energy, it can be configured to
extinguish after a period of inactivity.
1. Full Time Mode: Press and hold
DISPLAY for two seconds. The display will illuminate and the Back-UPS will beep
to confirm the Full-Time mode.
2. Power-Saving Mode: Press and hold
DISPLAY for two seconds. The display will darken and the Back-UPS will
beep to confirm the Power-Saving mode. While in Power-Saving Mode, the display will illuminate if a button is
pressed, it then darkens after 60 seconds of no activity.
Unit sensitivity
In situations where the Back-UPS or connected equipment appears too sensitive to input voltage, it may be necessary
to adjust the transfer voltage. Adjust the sensitivity of the Back-UPS to control when it will switch to battery power;
the higher the sensitivity, the more often the Back-UPS will switch to battery power.
1. Ensure the Back-UPS is connected to AC power, but is OFF.
2. Press and hold the
POWER button for six seconds. The LOAD CAPACITY bar will flash on and off, indicating that the
Back-UPS is in programming mode.
3. Press
POWER again to rotate through the menu options. Stop at selected sensitivity. The Back-UPS will beep to
