by utility power. However, utility power continues to be passively filtered by

the UPS.

When the UPS is operating during a power outage, the alarm beeps several times

initially, and then once every 10 seconds while in Battery Mode. The

Indicator

illuminates. The front panel displays the approximate percentage of battery capacity

remaining (see Figure 17). When the utility power returns, the UPS switches to

Normal Mode operation while the battery recharges.

If battery capacity becomes low while in Battery Mode, the I3 Indicator begins to

flash and the Output On Indicator remains lit, indicating approximately two

minutes before UPS shutdown. The alarm beeps every two seconds.

When shutdown is imminent, the Output On Indicator flashes. These warnings are

approximate, and the actual time to shutdown may vary significantly. Once these

warnings are indicated, immediately complete and save your work to prevent data

loss and similar difficulties. When utility power is restored after the UPS shuts

down, the UPS automatically connects to the load when the startup is complete.
