Software

Surge Protection

These outlets provide full-time protection from surges even if the Back-UPS ES

is switched OFF. Plug your printer, fax machine, scanner, or other peripherals

that do not need battery power into these outlets.

Place the Back-UPS ES to avoid:

- Direct sunlight

- Excessive heat

- Excessive humidity or contact with fluids

Plug the Back-UPS ES power cord directly into a wall outlet;

not a surge protector or power strip.

Connect Computer Cable

The supplied cable and software provide automatic file saving and shutdown of

the operating system in the case of a sustained power outage.

Connect the cable to the Data Port of the Back-UPS ES. Connect the other end

of the cable to the USB port on your computer. The software will automatically

find the USB Port of your computer.

Battery Back-up + Surge Protection

These outlets are powered whenever the Back-UPS ES 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 ES. Plug your

computer, monitor, CD-ROM drive and one other data-sensitive device such as

an external disk or tape drive, or Home Phoneline Networking Association

(HPNA) device into these outlets.

Press the ON/OFF switch to power the unit ON.

A single short beep and the green “Power On” indicator

confirms the Back-UPS ES is on and ready to provide

protection.

The Back-UPS ES should charge for at least 16 hours to ensure

sufficient runtime. The unit is being charged whenever it is

connected to utility power, whether the unit is turned ON or

OFF.

If the red Building Wiring Fault indicator (located on the end

near the power cord) is lit, your building wiring presents a shock

hazard that should be corrected by a qualified electrician.

See the Troubleshooting section for additional assistance.

For safety, the Back-UPS ES is shipped with one battery wire disconnected. The 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 ES over and press in the release tab.

Slide the plastic battery cover off the unit.

Insert the battery back into the compartment. Slide the

plastic battery cover back in place until the tab locks.

Terminals

Connect the battery wire firmly to the battery terminal.

Idle peripheral devices (printer/scanners, speakers) continue to draw power when not in use. To conserve

power, the Back-UPS uses “master controlled outlets”. The Master outlet senses when the master device

(computer) that is plugged into the Master outlet is no longer drawing current, and automatically shuts off

power to the Controlled outlets. Pressing the MASTER ENABLE button for one second enables and disables

this feature. When enabled, the green MASTER ENABLE LED is lit (on). When it is disabled, the LED is not

lit (off). The Back-UPS ships with MASTER ENABLE activated. Note: Do not connect peripherals to the

Controlled Outlets if you want them to continue to run when your computer is turned off.

Threshold Programming

When the computer is turned off, the Master outlet shuts off power to the Controlled outlets. However, when

the computer goes into “hibernation (sleep) mode” the Master outlet may not properly recognize the reduced

power level. To ensure the Master outlet shuts off power to the Controlled outlets properly, the threshold set-

ting may need to be adjusted from the “default value”. If the peripherals plugged into the Controlled outlets

do not turn off when the computer goes into hibernation mode, first ensure the MASTER ENABLE LED is lit,

and if so, then perform the procedure provided below to switch the threshold setting to High. Conversely, if

the computer has an extremely low power level, it may require that the threshold setting be set to Low if the

Controlled outlets automatically shut off, even when the computer is running. The Back-UPS automatically

exits this mode in five seconds if no buttons are pushed, or no operations are run. The three threshold set-

tings that can be selected are summarized in the table below.

Perform the following steps to change the threshold settings:

1. Plug the Back-UPS into the utility power source; do not turn power on. The unit will be in standby mode

(no LEDs are lit).

2. Press and hold down the MASTER ENABLE button for 10 seconds, until all indicators flash to show it has

entered threshold programming mode.

3. When the MASTER ENABLE button is released, the LEDs that are illuminated indicate the current thresh-

old setting (Low, Medium or High).

4. Press the MASTER ENABLE button to select a different threshold setting.

The Back-UPS protects a single line (2-wire) phone (including Digital Subscriber

Line - DSL), Home Phoneline Networking Association (HPNA) type equipment,

modem, 10/100Base-T Ethernet, or fax machines from surges when connected

through the UPS as shown in the drawing. The UPS also protects a cable

modem, CATV converter, or DSS receiver from surges when it is connected

through the UPS coaxial connectors as shown in the drawing.
