CyberPower Systems CPS320SL - Manual (Page 3)

CPS320SL / CPS375SL / CPS500SL / CPS575SL / CPS650SL
Guaranteed Uninterruptible Power System
DESCRIPTION
INSPECTION
The box should contain the following:
(1) PowerPanel™ software (floppy disk); (1) serial interface cable (DB-9);
(1) telephone communication cable; (1) user manual; (1) warranty registration card;
(1) UPS unit.
HOW TO DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR EQUIPMENT
1. Make sure that the total Volt-Amp (VA) requirements of your computer, monitor and peripherals does not exceed 1440 VA.
2. Insure that the equipment plugged into the three battery power-supplied outlets does not exceed the UPS unit’s rated capacity
(320VA/185W for CPS320SL, 375VA/210W for CPS375SL, 500VA/275W for CPS500SL, 575VA/320W for CPS575SL and
650VA/350W for CPS650SL). If rated unit capacities are exceeded, an overload condition may occur and cause the UPS unit to
shut down and the circuit breaker to trip.
3. 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:
Watts (W) x 1.82 = VA or Amps (A) x 120 = VA
Add the totals up for all pieces of equipment and multiply this total by .6 to calculate actual requirements.
There are many factors that can effect 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.
1
X Battery/Surge Outlets
Provides three battery powered/surge outlets for connected
equipment and insures temporary uninterrupted operation
of your equipment during a power failure.
Y Full-Time Surge Protection Outlets
Provides three always on surge suppression outlets.
Z Power Switch
Can be used as a mater on/off switch for equipment
connected to the battery power supplied outlets.
[ Electrical Wiring Fault Indicator
This LED indicator will illuminate to warn the user that a
wiring problem exists, such as bad ground, miss ground or
reversed wiring. If this is illuminated, user is advised to
disconnect all electrical equipment from the outlet and have
an electrician check to ensure the outlet is properly wired.
\ Power On Indicator
This LED is illuminated when the utility condition is normal
and the UPS outlets are providing power, free of surges
and spikes. ] Circuit Breaker
Located on the side of the UPS, the circuit breaker serves to
provide overload and fault protection. Under normal operating
conditions, the circuit breaker is depressed.
^ Serial Port to PC
This port allows connection and communication from the DB-9
serial port on the computer to the UPS unit. The UPS
communicates its status to the PowerPanel™ software. This
interface is also compatible with the UPS service provided by
Windows NT and Windows 2000.
_ Communication Protection Ports
Communication protection ports will protect any standard modem,
fax or telephone line.
` Outlets Designed for AC Adapters
Allows six AC power adapter blocks to be plugged into the UPS
without blocking adjacent outlets.
