The following general safety information should be used for all rack-mounted
devices:
DANGER
Always lower the leveling pads on the rack cabinet.
v
v Always install stabilizer brackets on the rack cabinet.
v To avoid hazardous conditions due to uneven mechanical loading,
always install the heaviest devices in the bottom of the rack cabinet.
Always install servers and optional devices starting from the bottom of
the rack cabinet.
v Rack-mounted devices are not to be used as a shelf or work space. Do
not place any object on top of rack-mounted devices.
v Each rack cabinet might have more than one power cord. Be sure to
disconnect all power cords in the rack cabinet before servicing any
device in the rack cabinet.
v Connect all devices installed in a rack cabinet to power devices installed
in the same rack cabinet. Do not plug a power cord from a device
installed in one rack cabinet into a power device installed in a different
rack cabinet.
v An electrical outlet that is not correctly wired could place hazardous
voltage on the metal parts of the system or the devices that attach to the
system. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure that the outlet
is correctly wired and grounded to prevent an electrical shock.
CAUTION:
v Do not install a unit in a rack where the internal rack ambient temperatures
will exceed the manufacturer’s recommended ambient temperature for all
your rack-mounted devices.
v Do not install a unit in a rack where the air flow is compromised. Ensure
that air flow is not blocked or reduced on any side, front, or back of a unit
used for air flow through the unit.
v Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the
supply circuit so that overloading of the circuits does not compromise the
supply wiring or overcurrent protection. To provide the correct power
connection to a rack, refer to the rating labels located on the equipment in
the rack to determine the total power requirement of the supply circuit.
v (For sliding drawers.) Do not pull out or install any drawer or feature if the
rack stabilizer brackets are not attached to the rack. Do not pull out more
than one drawer at a time. The rack may become unstable if you pull out
more than one drawer at a time.
v (For fixed drawers.) This drawer is a fixed drawer and must not be moved
for servicing unless specified by manufacturer. Attempting to move the
drawer partially or completely out of the rack may cause the rack to
become unstable or cause the drawer to fall out of the rack.

Completing the installation
To complete the installation of the uninterruptible power supply, complete the
following steps:
1. If you are installing power-management software, connect a workstation or
notebook computer to the uninterruptible power supply communication port
(COM connector on the Web/SNMP card) using the communication cable that
comes with the uninterruptible power supply.
2. Connect the devices that you want to protect into the applicable uninterruptible
power supply output receptacles. For information about load segments, see
“Load segments” on page 22.
Note: Do not protect laser printers with the uninterruptible power supply
because of the exceptionally high power requirements of the heating elements.
3. If an emergency power-off (disconnect) switch is required by local codes, see
“Remote emergency power-off installation” on page 14 to install the remote
emergency power-off switch before turning on the uninterruptible power supply.
4. Connect the uninterruptible power supply power cord to a power source. All
front panel LEDs flash briefly and then only the Power-on LED flashes,
indicating that the uninterruptible power supply is in Standby mode and the
connected devices are offline. If the alarm beeps or an uninterruptible power
supply General alarm LED stays lit, see Table 6 on page 39.
Chapter 2. Installing the uninterruptible power supply in a rack or tower configuration 13
5. Press and hold the On button until you hear the uninterruptible power supply
beep (approximately one second). The Power-on LED stops flashing and the
Load level LEDs display the percentage of load being applied to the
uninterruptible power supply. The uninterruptible power supply is now in Normal
mode and is providing power to the connected devices.
Notes:
1. The batteries charge to 90% capacity in approximately 3 hours. Make sure that
you charge the batteries for 24 hours after installation or long-term storage.
2. If more than two extended battery modules are installed, use an external battery
charger for faster recharge times.
Remote emergency power-off installation
The uninterruptible power supply includes a remote emergency power-off connector
that enables you to turn off power at the uninterruptible power supply output
receptacles from a customer-supplied switch in a remote location.
The remote emergency power-off feature shuts down the connected devices
immediately and does not follow the orderly shutdown procedure initiated by any
power-management software.
Any devices that are operating on battery power are also shut down immediately.
When the remote emergency power-off switch is reset, the connected devices will
not return to battery power until the uninterruptible power supply is restarted
manually.
If the Off button is pressed after the remote emergency power-off is activated, the
uninterruptible power supply remains in Standby mode when restarted until the On
button is pressed.
Notes:
1. The remote emergency power-off function activates when the remote
emergency power-off contacts close.
2. For Europe, the emergency switch requirements are detailed in Harmonized
document HD-384-48 S1, “Electrical Installation of the Buildings, Part 4:
Protection for Safety, Chapter 46: Isolation and Switching.”
To connect a remote emergency power-off switch, complete the following steps:
1. Turn off the uninterruptible power supply and disconnect all external cables and
power cords.
