3. UPS connections
• C onnect the UPS 1 to the AC-power system via a wall outlet with an earth connector,
using the attached cord 21 (see figure A).
• P lug critical equipment (computer, monitor, modem, etc.) into the outlets 19 providing
battery backup power and surge protection (see figure B), taking care not to exceed
the rated current indicated in amperes.
• O ther devices (printer, scanner, fax, etc.) can be connect to the surge protection outlets
18 (see figure B). T he surge protection outlets are not backed up by battery power in
the event of a power outage.
Optional Internet modem / Network connection:
A modem or Ethernet data line can be protected against surges by connecting it via the
UPS. Connect the existing device cable between the wall outlet and the UPS, and use a
similar cable between the UPS and the device, as indicated in figures C and D (cable not
supplied).
Optional USB connection:
The UPS device can be connected to the computer using the USB cable 4 supplied
(see figure C).

4. Master and EcoControl outlets operating procedure
In order to limit energy consumption of peripherals (scanner, printer) in standby mode,
the Eaton 5S is equipped with EcoControl outlets that are dependent on the Master
outlet. When the main device supplied by the Master outlet (computer) is shut down, the
EcoControl outlets are automatically deactivated and the peripherals shut down.
This function (deactivated by default) is validated and configured using the configuration
tool integrated in the software.
Note: when the function is activated, do not connect critical applications to
Threshold setup
A default setup ensures the correct operation of the EcoControl function. However,
depending on the consumption of the main load, the trigger threshold of the EcoControl
function may have to be modified using the configuration software supplied with the
UPS:
• F irst, make sure that the function is activated in the "EcoControl Function" tab of the
configuration tool.
• I f the peripherals connected to the EcoControl outlets do not switch off when the main
load is not in normal operation (ex: when in standby mode), the detection threshold
value must be set to high.
• I f the rated consumption level of the main load is low and the EcoControl outlets shut
down when the main load is operating normally, the detection threshold value must
be set to low.
