CONNECTING EQUIPMENT TO OUTLETS
Critical equipment is connected to the uncontrolled outlets so they remain on until the UPS battery is depleted. Noncritical equipment is connected
to controlled outlets so they can be set to turn off once the battery is depleted to a set level. Controlled outlets can also be set to remain on for
additional critical loads. Use the remote management connection or the front panel LCD to congure the controlled outlets.
