Caution

• For safety, the Back-UPS ES is shipped with one battery wire disconnected. Small sparks may occur during battery

must be located near the equipment and easily accessible.

Connect the Battery

Overview

Turn on the Back-UPS

Press the ON/OFF switch to turn the unit ON. A single short beep and the green “Power On” indicator confirms that

Back-UPS ES is on and ready to provide protection. The UPS will automatically perform a self-test when power is

applied to the unit, the green LED will flash during the self-test.

Note: Prior to first use, charge the Back-UPS for at least 16 hours to ensure sufficient runtime. The unit is charging

whenever it is connected to utility power, whether the unit is turned ON or OFF.

Master Outlet—Connect a master device, such as a computer. See

“Using the power-saving outlets” on page 2.

Battery Backup and Surge Protection—These outlets receive

power whenever the unit is ON. During a power outage or other

utility problems (brownouts, over-voltages), these outlets will

receive power from the unit for a limited time. Connect a computer,

monitor, and two other data-sensitive devices into these outlets.

Note that one of these outlets is the Master outlet. See “Using the

power-saving outlets” on page 2.

Controlled Outlets—Connect peripheral devices. See “Using the

power-saving outlets” on page 2.

Surge Protection—These outlets provide full-time protection from

surges even if the unit is OFF, but will only supply power when the

unit is ON. Connect a printer, fax machine, scanner, or other

peripherals that do not need battery power during power outages.

Note that if the power-saving feature is enabled, three of these

outlets are controlled by the Master outlet.

Data Port—Use the supplied RJ45/USB cable to connect the Back-

UPS unit to a computer to install the software. See “Install the

PowerChute® Personal Edition software” on page 2.

Circuit Breaker—Push to re-set the circuit breaker.

Modem/Phone/Fax—Connect a DSL or dial-up modem, phone,

fax machine, or 10/100 Base-T ethernet equipment. Note: Do not

connect the UPS telephone protection ports to both the

telephone and network system cables at the same time.

Wall outlet—Connect the unit to a data line wall outlet.
