SITE WIRING F AULT

After plugging in the UPS, check the site wiring fault (SWF) LED on the rear of the unit. If the
LED is illuminated, the UPS is plugged into an improperly wired AC outlet.

CHARGING THE BA TTERIES

The Smart Up Series UPS’s will charge the batteries whenever the unit is connected to an
AC source. It is recommended that the UPS batteries be charged for a minimum of 4 hours
before use. The UPS may be used immediately. However, the “on battery” run time may be
less than normally expected.

CONNECTING YOUR EQUIPMENT

Plug the equipment into the receptacles on the rear of the unit. Insure that you do not exceed
the maximum output rating of the UPS (refer to the back panel of the UPS or the electrical
specifications in this manual). For non-critical loads, such as printers, it is recommended that
the equipment be connected to the Surge Only outlet.

CAUTION! BE SURE ALL CRITICAL LOADS ARE CONNECTED TO THE

BA TTERY SUPPLIED OUTLETS. THE SURGE ONL Y OUTLET IS NOT A BA T­TERY SUPPLIED OUTLET.

LED STATUS & ALARMS

LOAD LEVEL DISPLA Y

The 4-LED load percentage display shows the power level (20%, 40%, 60%, 80%)
drawn by the loads which are connected to THE BA TTERY-SUPPLIED OUTLETS on the
UPS. If UPS is overloaded, the OVERLOAD LED will light.

BATTER Y LEVEL DISPLA Y

This display shows the battery capacity left in the battery. The level is represented by
percentage of 25, 50, 75 and 100, and these LED’s will extinguish gradually when using
battery power. When battery capacity reaches the minimal level of 25%, the lowest
LED(25%) blinks.

When UPS is in battery mode, the ON BATTERY LED will light, proceed by a “beep” sound
for every 2 seconds, and then the UPS will start supplying power to load through battery.

ON BA TTERY MODE

8

If an overload occurs, the OVERLOAD LED will light and an uninterrupted alarm will be
heard. Under this condition, check the load connected to the UPS.

OVERLOAD

BUCK/BOOST

If the UPS detects a high utility voltage, the function of the buck is to automatically reduce the
output voltage to its nominal level. If the UPS should detect a low utility voltage, the boost
function will raise the output voltage to its nominal level. These two functions are repre­sented by their respective LED on the front panel.

BATTERY REPLACE

This function is to alert users of the need to replace the batteries. When the microproces­sor in the UPS detects a battery fault, the UPS alarm will give out three beeps. Each beep
lasts for 0.5 seconds and interrupted by an interval of 0.5 seconds. After the initial 3
beeps, the alarm will continue to sound every hour.

9

OVER TEMPERA TURE

When temperature inside the UPS is too high, the LED of Buck, Boost, Normal and On
Battery will light, the alarm will sound continuously, and after a minute the UPS will stop
supplying power to load.

BATTERY LOW

This function is to inform user of the remaining power capacity of the batteries. When the
batteries reach a low capacity condition, the UPS alarm will beep once every second,
and the LED on the 25% level will flash.

UPS Fault

When there is a breakdown on the UPS, all LEDs will light and the alarm will sound
continuously. If this happens, turn off the UPS and unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet. (see Section 7 for obtaining service)
