APC BACK-UPS BR650CI - Manual

1
Connect Battery
For safety, the Back-UPS is shipped with one battery wire disconnected. The Back-UPS will not operate until the wire is connected to the touch safe battery
terminal.
NOTE: Small sparks may occur during battery connection. This is normal.
TURN the Back-UPS over, and slide
the battery compartment cover off of
the battery housing.
1 2 3 REMOVE the battery from the battery
compartment, and connect the black wire
to the negative (-) battery terminal. Ensure
the battery is installed as shown below.
INSTALL the battery compartment cover
back onto the battery housing.
Place the Back-UPS to avoid:
- Direct sunlight
- Excessive heat
- Excessive humidity or contact with fluids
Plug the Back-UPS power cord directly into a wall outlet, and not to a surge
protector or power strip. The wall outlet should be located near the equipment, and
easily accessible.

Surge Protection Only
These outlets provide full-time protection from surges even if the
Back-UPS is switched OFF. Plug your printer, fax machine,
scanner, or other peripherals that do not need battery power into
these outlets.
Battery Backup Surge Protection
These outlets are powered whenever the Back-UPS is switched
ON. During a power outage, or other utility problems (brownouts,
over-voltages), these outlets will be powered for a limited time by
the Back-UPS. Plug your computer, monitor, and two other data-
sensitive devices (external disk or tape drive) into these outlets.

Transfer Voltage and
Sensitivity Adjustment
(Optional)
In situations where the Back-UPS, or connected
equipment, appears too sensitive to the input volt-
age, it may be necessary to adjust the transfer
voltage. This is a very simple task that requires
the use of an ON/OFF push button. To adjust the
transfer voltage, perform the following steps:
1. Plug the Back-UPS into the utility power
source. The Back-UPS will be in “Standby
mode” (no indicators are lit).
2. Press the ON/OFF push button fully in for 10
seconds. The Online LED will begin glowing in
a cyclical order: GREEN-AMBER-RED, indi-
cating it is going into “Program mode”.
3. The Back-UPS will then indicate the current
sensitivity, as shown in the Transfer Voltage
and Sensitivity Adjustment table below.
4. To select the LOW sensitivity setting, press the
ON/OFF push button until the LED begins
flashing GREEN.
5. To select the MEDIUM sensitivity setting,
press the ON/OFF push button until the LED
begins flashing RED.
6. To select the HIGH sensitivity setting, press
the ON/OFF push button until the LED begins
flashing AMBER.
7. To exit Programming mode, once sensitivity is
set, wait approximately 5 seconds, and all of
the LED indicators will be off (unlit).
