Safety and General Information

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - This section contains important instructions that should be followed during installation and maintenance of the UPS and batteries.

•This UPS is intended for indoor use only.

•Connect the Back-UPS power cable directly to a wall outlet. Do not use surge protectors or extension cords.

•Replace batteries only with APC by Schneider Electric approved batteries (see Replace Battery section for details)

•When grounding cannot be verified, disconnect the equipment from the utility power outlet before installing or connecting to other equipment. Reconnect the power cord only after all connections are made.

CAUTION

•Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The batteries may explode.

•Do not open or mutilate batteries. Released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes. It may be toxic.

•Before replacing batteries, remove conductive jewelry such as chains, wrist watches, and rings. High energy through conductive materials could cause severe burns.

Battery Backup + Surge Protection Outlets

Battery backup outlets provide protection to connected equipment when the Back-UPS is turned on and connected to AC power. Battery backup outlets receive power from the battery for a limited period of time when a power outage, or brownout condition occurs. Battery backup outlets provide protection from power surges or spikes. Connect a computer, monitor and other peripheral devices to these outlets.

Surge Protection Outlets

Surge protection outlets provide protection to connected equipment when the Back-UPS is connected to AC power, and is switched on or off. Surge protection outlets provide protection from power surges or spikes. Connect peripheral devices (such as printer, scanner, etc.) that do not need to remain on during power outages or AC problems to the surge protection outlets.

USB charging port

The USB port provides a maximum of 1.5A DC power. The USB port will provide power when the unit is on AC and on battery.

Turn On the Back-UPS

Press the POWER button located on the top of the Back-UPS. The POWER button will illuminate green and a single short beep will indicate that the Back-UPS is on and providing protection for connected equipment.

The Back-UPS battery charges fully during the first 24 hours while connected to AC power. The Back-UPS battery will charge regardless of whether the Back-UPS is switched on or off as long as it is connected to AC power. The UPS will have full runtime capability after the initial 24 hour charging period.

If the red Building Wiring Fault indicator (located on the end near the power cord) is lit, your building wiring may present a shock hazard that should be corrected by a qualified electrician.

Turn Off the Back-UPS

To turn off the Back-UPS, press the POWER button for at least 2 seconds. At the first beep, release the button and the UPS will turn off. A 2 second delay has been added to mitigate unintentional contact with the POWER button.

Quick Mute

The Back-UPS is able to temporarily mute user correctable alarms such as: On Battery, Battery disconnected and Overload.

During such alarms, a short press (less than 2 seconds) of the POWER button will temporarily mute the alarm until the condition has been reset. A short double beep will confirm that Quick Mute has been activated. Pressing the POWER button for more than 2 seconds will turn off the UPS.

Other critical events such as Battery replacement and Charger notification can not be temporarily muted. The unit in these cases must be turned off.

On Battery Indicator Modes

This Back-UPS has 3 On Battery Indicator modes provided that the UPS is turned on. To configure an On Battery Indicator mode, hold down the POWER button and wait for the third beep. At the third beep the POWER button will cycle red / green. Release the POWER button and its color will indicate the mode the UPS is in. Press the POWER button to cycle through each mode. See the table below for the mode selection colors. Once the mode has been selected, wait 5 seconds and the setting will be committed to the UPS.

Reinstall the battery compartment cover. Be sure that the release tabs lock into place.

Use PowerChute Personal Edition software to configure the UPS settings. Protect your computer and other equipment during a power outage. During a power outage, PowerChute will save any open files on your computer and shut it down. When power is restored, it will restart the computer.

Note: PowerChute is only compatible with a Windows operating system. If you are using Mac OSX, use the native shutdown feature to protect your system. See the documentation provided with your computer.

Installation

Use a USB cable to connect the Data port on the rear panel of the UPS to the USB port on your computer. On the computer, go to www.apc.com/tools/download. Select “Software Upgrades - PowerChute Personal Edition” in the “Filter by Software/ Firmware” drop down menu. Select the appropriate operating system. Follow directions to download the software.

Voltage Sensitivity Adjustment (optional)

The Back-UPS detects and reacts to line voltage distortions by transferring to battery backup power to protect connected equipment. In situations where either the Back-UPS or the connected equipment is too sensitive for the input voltage level it is necessary to adjust the transfer voltage.

1.Turn off the UPS while connected to a wall outlet.

2.Press and hold the ON/OFF button for 10 seconds. The POWER button will alternate green-red to indicate that the Back-UPS is in Program mode.

3.The POWER button will flash either green, amber, or red to indicate the current sensitivity level. Refer to the table for an explanation of the transfer voltage sensitivity levels.

4.To exit Program mode wait five seconds and all LED indicators will extinguish. Program mode is no longer active.
