Once set up, the Master Power UPS operates automatically to protect your devices.

Normal Operation

  • When connected to a wall outlet, the UPS charges its internal battery and provides conditioned power to connected devices.
  • The UPS continuously monitors the incoming power for fluctuations and outages.

Power Outage

  • In the event of a power outage, the UPS automatically switches to battery power, providing uninterrupted power to connected devices.
  • The UPS will emit an audible alarm (beeping) to indicate it is operating on battery power.
  • Depending on the load, the UPS can provide approximately 10 minutes of backup for a typical PC or up to 40 minutes for a modem/router.
  • During a prolonged outage, save your work and properly shut down your computer to prevent data loss.

Power Restoration

  • When utility power returns, the UPS automatically switches back to utility power and begins recharging its battery.
  • The audible alarm will cease.

Software Monitoring (via USB)

  • If you have installed the UPS monitoring software, you can view real-time status, battery charge level, input/output voltage, and configure automatic shutdown settings for your computer during extended power outages.
