SURGE Protected outlets (See #1 on Diagram 1)
These outlets do not provide power during a power outage. Do not plug any surge protectors or power strips into the battery back-up outlets (i.e. daisy chaining).
Equipment such as computer peripherals, printers, fax machine’s, or a desk lamp may be plugged into these outlets. The On/Off button does not control these outlets.
2. UPS Outlets (See #2 on Diagram 1)
These outlets are your battery back up outlets. We strongly recommend that only sensitive equipment such as your computer and monitor should be plugged into these outlets.
Caution Never connect a laser printer or scanner to the backup outlets of UPS with other computer equipment. A laser printer or scanner draws significantly more power when in use than when sitting idle. This may overload the UPS.
Should a power outage occur, your battery backup would automatically turn on Power (utility or battery) is not supplied to these outlets when the UPS is switched off.
3. The On/Off button has 4 functions: (See #3 on Diagram 1)
1. Turns on the UPS. Depress button at least 2 seconds. The green light will come on.
2. Cold start function. Assuming the battery is charged the UPS will work without it being plugged into an outlet. Depress and hold the key for at least 2 seconds to turn on the UPS.
3. Silence function. During “On Battery Mode”, the audible sound can be turned “ON” or “OFF” by depressing the switch less than
1.5 seconds.

5. USB communication port (see #5 on Diagram 2)
Your UPS features a USB communication port. Installation of the cable and software is optional. This allows the UPS to connect to your computer. The Bulldog Software will not work if the UPS is not connected to you computer. This does not mean the battery backup feature will not work without the software and cable installed. The UPS will still provide backup power but you will be unable to utilize the data management capabilities of the software.
