device SmartSlot cover plate. Install Measure-UPS II. Replace the
cover plate screws. Note: Measure-UPS II is sensitive to static
electricity. Handle Measure-UPS II by the end plate only. Do not
touch the exposed printed circuit board. While it is not possible to
install Measure-UPS II upside down, it is possible to damage it in
the attempt. Note that the edges of the printed circuit board align
with the locating slots in the sides of the SmartSlot. The Smart­Slot may be oriented horizontally or vertically in the host device.
The host device may be on or off during installation.

3. Connect the supplied probe to probe connector 1 on Measure­UPS II.

4. Place the probe where desired using the supplied hook and loop
fasteners, if needed. Note: The Measure-UPS II probe is designed
for use in a controlled environment. Place it in an area that is
within the environment limits set in the specifications (see section
