8. Connect Modem/Phone/Network for surge protection
Connect a single modem/phone line to a surge protected "IN" outlet on the back panel of the
UPS unit. Connect the "OUT" outlet to the computer with another phone line cable.
Caution: The telephone line lightning arrester could be rendered inoperable if improperly
installed. This surge protection device is for indoor use only. Never install telephone wiring
during a lightning storm.
Note: This connection is optional.

To prevent an abrupt computer system shutdown, connect a USB cable to your computer.
Then you can install and use the automatic shutdown software (Free download from web
site).
The USB communication port at the back of the UPS enables the computer to directly
control UPS status.
The main functions are as follows:
- Transmission of a visual alarm in event of power failure
- Automatic file closure prior to the battery going flat
- Computer & UPS shutdown

The battery is the only UPS component which is not in permanent use. It has a useful life of
approximately 3 to 5 years. However, frequent major discharges or exposure to
temperatures over 20C will shorten its life span. We therefore recommend that users
recharge the battery once every 3 months when the unit is not in use in order to compensate
for natural discharging. UPS backup time will depend on the powered load, as well as the
age and condition of the batteries.
WARNING!
Batteries should always be replaced by qualified technicians. Batteries have a very high
short circuit current: connection errors could cause electric arcs resulting in
serious burns.

Should the UPS fail to function correctly we recommend you perform the following tests
before calling the Hot Line.
Check list:
Is the main switch in the "ON" position?
Is the UPS plugged into the mains power supply?
Does the power supply fall within specified unit values?
Has the fuse gone in the mains plug?
Is the UPS overloaded?
Is the battery flat or defective?
