Personal Edition Software
Overview
Use PowerChute Personal Edition software to configure the UPS settings.
Protect your computer and other equipment during a power outage. During a power
outage, PowerChute will save any open files on your computer and safely shut it
down. When power is restored, it will restart the computer.
Configure the UPS to use features such as power-saving outlets, shutdown
configuration, and alarms.
Monitor the UPS for power usage and power events.
Note: PowerChute is only compatible with a Windows operating system. If you are
using a Mac OSX, use the native shutdown feature to protect your system. See the
documentation provided with your computer.
Installation
Use a USB cable to connect the Data port on the rear panel of the UPS to the USB port
on your computer.
If the Back-UPS came with a PowerChute CD, insert the CD into your computer and
follow the on-screen instructions
If the Back-UPS did not come with a PowerChute CD, go to www.apc.com and
download the software free of charge.
Turn On the Back-UPS
Press the POWER ON button located on the top of the Back-UPS. The Power On/
Replace Battery LED will illuminate and a single short beep will be audible to
indicate that the Back-UPS is providing protection for connected equipment.
The Back-UPS battery charges fully during the first 16 hours while connected to
utility power. The Back-UPS battery will charge while the Back-UPS is switched on
or off and is connected to utility power. Do not expect full battery run capability
during the initial charge time.
If the red Building Wiring Fault LED located on the side of the Back-UPS
illuminates, do not operate the Back-UPS. Have a qualified electrician correct the
building wiring fault.
