Setting Up Windows Internal Power Management for UPS Service

Note 1: Wake Up and Auto Power-On ATX PC

When AC returns, if the user wants the UPS to power up the PC equipped with
ATX power, our UPS has two methods in order to do this function:

1. Enable the wake-up by modem in the PC BIOS, and then connect the UPS

and PC with RS232 cable. When AC returns, the UPS will send a signal to
start up the PC by RS232 cable.

2. Enable the AC return restart in the PC BIOS (if your PC BIOS can support

this function), and when the AC returns, then the PC will start up directly.

If you don’t need to have your PC auto power on after auto shutdown, you may
just set up Windows internal power management for UPS service as follows:

When there is a utility failure, the UPS will send the AC-fail and low-battery
signals to the PC, and Windows will shut down and send back to the UPS a
shutdown signal. The UPS will be off automatically after the PC is off. The UPS
will be on automatically when utility is recovered. The PC will assume the power
from your UPS. If you have set up your PC to wake-up or auto restart in BIOS as
described in the foregoing note, your PC will be turned on automatically.

2000 Control Panel by
