Overview
Remote Emergency Power Off Port
The UPS includes an isolated REPO port. The REPO feature allows the UPS to be powered
down from a remote location. To use this feature, the REPO port must be connected to a
remote, normally open switch (not supplied). When this switch is closed, the UPS
immediately disconnects power from its load segments.
To power down the entire network in the event of an emergency, the REPO ports of multiple
UPS units can be connected to a single switch.
IMPORTANT: The REPO port meets the requirements of NFPA Articles 645-10 and 645-11 for a
disconnecting means.
IMPORTANT:
• If the remote switch is closed, the REPO feature powers down protected devices immediately and
does not utilize the orderly shutdown procedure initiated by HP power management software.
• The REPO feature shuts down UPS units operating under either utility or battery power.
• If the UPS was operating on battery power when the remote switch was closed, no power will be
available to the devices until utility power is restored and manually powered up.
Warranties
To back up the wide range of features offered with the UPS, HP provides a three-year limited
warranty.
$25,000 Computer Load Protection Guarantee
In addition to the limited warranty, HP offers a $25,000 Computer Load Protection Guarantee
(provided by the original equipment manufacturer).
IMPORTANT: The $25,000 Computer Load Protection Guarantee is offered only in North America.
The $25,000 Computer Load Protection Guarantee applies only if:
• The UPS is plugged into a suitably grounded and wired outlet using no extension cords,
adapters, other ground wires, or other electrical connections.
• The UPS installation complies with all applicable electrical and safety codes specified by

Pre-Failure Battery Warranty
o
C (77oF).
Battery Maintenance
The Pre-Failure Battery Warranty, standard on all HP UPS units, extends the advantage of an
HP three-year limited warranty by applying it to the battery before it actually fails.
Specifically, the Pre-Failure Battery Warranty ensures that when customers receive
notification from HP power management software that the battery may fail, the battery is
replaced free of charge under the warranty.
HP maintains the highest standards in the industry, as evidenced by the HP Pre-Failure
Battery Warranty. This warranty is beneficial in at least two significant ways:
• Reduced total cost of ownership
• Reduced downtime
A Pre-Failure Battery warning is given 30 days before a battery failure. The warning is
indicated in one or both of the following ways:
• An LED showing the battery is low
• Notification from HP power management software
This warning provides ample time to order a spare battery. You can order a spare at
www.hp.com.
The battery warranty coverage is three years for parts. The warranty for the first year of
ownership includes parts and labor. If battery spares are not available for a particular HP UPS
model, then the entire UPS, including its battery, is replaced.

Electrostatic Discharge
To prevent damaging the system, be aware of the precautions you need to follow when
setting up the system or handling parts. A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other
conductor may damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage
may reduce the life expectancy of the device.
To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions:
• Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers.
• Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free
workstations.
• Place parts on a grounded surface before removing them from their containers.
• Avoid touching pins, leads, or circuitry.
• Always be properly grounded when touching a static-sensitive component or assembly.
Grounding Methods
There are several methods for grounding. Use one or more of the following methods when
handling or installing electrostatic-sensitive parts:
• Use a wrist strap connected by a ground cord to a grounded workstation or computer
chassis. Wrist straps are flexible straps with a minimum of 1 megohm ± 10 percent
resistance in the ground cords. To provide proper ground, wear the strap snug against the
skin.
• Use heel straps, toe straps, or boot straps at standing workstations. Wear the straps on
both feet when standing on conductive floors or dissipating floor mats.
• Use conductive field service tools.
• Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-dissipating work mat.
If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper grounding, have an authorized
reseller install the part.
