SAFETY WARNINGS

(SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS)

This manual contains important safety instructions. Please read and follow all instructions carefully
during installation and operation of the unit. Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to
unpack, install, or operate your UPS.

This equipment can be operated by any individuals with no previous training.

The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and easily accessible.

During the installation of this equipment it should be assured that the sum of the leakage currents of
the UPS and the connected loads does not exceed 3.5mA.

Attention, hazardous through electric shock. Also with disconnection of this unit from the mains,
hazardous voltage still may be accessible through supply from battery. The battery supply should be
therefore disconnected in the plus and minus pole at the quick connectors of the battery when
maintenance or service work inside the UPS is necessary.

Do not dispose of batteries in a fire, the battery may explode.

Do not open or mutilate the battery or batteries, released electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes.

HOW TO DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR

EQUIPMENT

1. Insure that the equipment plugged into the battery power-supplied outlets does not exceed the

UPS unit’s rated capacity (1500VA/1000W for PP1500E, 2200VA/1600W for PP2200E). If rated
unit capacities are exceeded, an overload condition may occur and cause the UPS unit to shut
down or the circuit breaker to trip.

2. If the power requirements of your equipment are listed in units other than Volt-Amps (VA), convert

Watts (W) or Amps (A) into VA by doing the calculations below. Note: The below equation only
calculates the maximum amount of VA that the equipment can use, not what is typically used by
the equipment at any one time. Users should expect usage requirements to be approximately 60%
of below value.


TO ESTIMATE POWER REQUIREMENTS

1. Watts (W) x 2.0 = VA or Amps (A) x 230 = VA
2. Add the totals up for all pieces of equipment and multiply this total by 0.6 to calculate actual

requirements. There are many factors that can affect the amount of power that your computer
system will require. The total load that you will be placing on the battery-powered outlets should
not exceed 80% of the unit’s capacity.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION GUIDE


1.

Connect the equipment to your UPS outlets. The

IEC-IEC power cords coming with the unit are used
to connect your computer and monitor to the UPS.
Items such as copiers, laser printers, vacuums,
space heaters, or other large electrical devices
should not be connected to the UPS. Please make
sure that the total loads of your equipments are
less than the maximum total power load of your
UPS.

2. Use your computer power cord to connect the UPS

to a wall outlet. Please avoid using extension cords
and adapter plugs. (To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged in at all times.)


3. Press the UPS power button to turn it on. The “Power On” indicator will be illuminated in “Green”.

4. Install your software and accessories. To use the software, simply use the enclosed serial

interface or USB cable to connect the UPS and your computer.


BASIC OPERATION

FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION

Power Switch

Press the ON/OFF button to turn the UPS on or off.


Test Switch

This UPS performs a self-test automatically when
power is on. If the UPS passes the test, it returns to
on-line operation. If the UPS fails the self-test, please
recharge the battery for 4 hours and perform another
self-test. If it fails after recharging the battery, please
replace the battery.



Battery Indicators


These indicators show a visual indication of the battery charge. If battery capacity is
under 20%, no indicator LED will illuminate and the UPS starts beeping.




Load Level Indicators


These LED indicators show a visual depiction of the UPS load. The load indicator
LED will turn orange if the load is between 80 and 100%. If the load is under 20%, no
indicator LED will illuminate.




Using Battery Indicator

This illuminates during utility failure, indicating that the battery is supplying power to
the battery-power supplied outlets.

AVR Indicator

This LED indicates that the UPS is operating in automatic voltage regulation mode.
When the LED is illuminated continuously, it indicates input over-voltage and the
UPS unit bucks the voltage. When the LED is flashed in rotation, it indicates that the
UPS unit is boosting input voltage.

Power On Indicator

This LED is illuminated when the utility condition is normal and the UPS outlets
are providing “clean power”, free of surges and spikes.



REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION

Backup Power for Critical Loads

The UPS provides 2 battery powered and surge protected
outlets for the most critical connected equipments and
insures temporary uninterrupted operation of connected
equipments during a power failure.
NOTE: When the UPS is overloaded, the UPS will
interrupt power supply to the other 6 battery outlets and
leave these 2 outlets for critical loads uninterrupted.

Battery Backup and Surge Protection Outlets

This unit provides 6 battery-powered, surge-protected and
AVR outlets for connected equipments and insures
uninterrupted operation of connected equipment during a
power failure.

Circuit Breaker Reset for Overload Protection

Re-settable circuit breakers provide optimal overload protection.


Communication Protection Ports


Ethernet RJ-45 Network Protection Ports protect your Phone, Fax and Modem from
surges over the Ethernet/Phone line.



Serial/ USB Ports

The PP1500E/PP2200E provides two serial and one USB ports to allow connection and
communication between the UPS and two computers. This allows the simultaneous shutdown of
two computer systems. These interfaces are also compatible with the UPS service provided by
Windows 2000, Windows, Windows NT, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003.

1. The Primary PC

To control and to make any change

to the operation of the UPS, please
install the PowerPanel

®

Business

Edition in your primary computer and
then connect it to the Serial Port I or
USB port of the UPS.

2. The Secondary PC

The secondary computer with

PowerPanel

®

installed should be

connected to the serial port II. This PC
will shutdown following the user settings
in PowerPanel

®

Software when a power

failure occurs but it is unable to exhibit
any control over the UPS.

When power failure occurs, one of the following shutdown sequences will be executed:
1. If the Primary and Secondary serial ports are both in use: the Primary computer will start to count
down (user controlled delay) for shutdown (User Control delay can be set in the PowerPanel

®

Business Edition software. Recommended time is 5 minutes). Once the Primary computer is
shutdown, the UPS will signal the Secondary computer and initiate the Secondary to shutdown. The
UPS default shutdown time is 2 minutes. Therefore, it is recommended that Secondary computer is
set to shutdown within 1 minute in PowerPanel

®

Software.

2. If only the Secondary serial port is in use: the Secondary computer will shutdown following the
user settings in PowerPanel

®

Software. However, the Secondary computer will not able to signal the

UPS to shutdown. Therefore, the UPS will only power off when it is in low battery.
