CAUTION RISK OF HYDROGEN SULPHIDE GAS AND EXCESSIVE SMOKE · Replace the battery at least every 5 years or at the end of its service life, whichever is earlier. · Replace the battery immediately when the UPS indicates battery replacement is necessary. · Replace batteries with the same number and type of batteries as originally installed in the equipment. · Replace the battery immediately when the UPS indicates a battery over-temperature condition, or when there is evidence of electrolyte leakage. Power off the UPS, unplug it from the AC input, and disconnect the batteries. Do not operate the UPS until the batteries have been replaced. Failure to follow these instructions can result in minor or moderate injury and equipment damage. Inventory USB Data Port Cable https://manual-hub.com/ Connect the Battery The UPS is shipped with the battery disconnected. Lay the UPS with the battery door facing up. The arrows point to the locking tabs of the battery compartment. Press the tabs downwards and pull the battery door away from the unit to access the battery modules. Using the handles on both sides of the battery, lift the battery 30 degrees upward to expose the battery connector. Connect the red wire as shown above. Push the battery into the unit Align the side rails on the cover with the rails on the UPS and slide the cover till it locks in position. Install PowerChute TM Personal Edition Software Use PowerChute Personal Edition software to configure the UPS settings. During a power outage, PowerChute will save any open files on your computer and shut it down. When power is restored, it will restart the computer. Note: PowerChute is only compatible with a Windows operating system. If you are using Mac OSX, use the native shutdown feature to protect your system. See the documentation provided with your computer. Installation Use the USB Data Port Cable supplied with the Back-UPS to connect the data port on the Back-UPS to the USB port on your computer. Download PowerChuteTM Personal Edition Software from www.apc.com/pcpe. Select the appropriate operating system and follow directions to download the software. 2 Back-UPS Pro Gaming UPS 1500 VA https://manual-hub.com/ Connect the Equipment Battery Backup and Surge Protected outlets When the Back-UPS is receiving input power, the Battery Backup with Surge Protection outlets will supply power to connected equipment. During a power outage or other AC problems, the Battery Backup outlets receive power for a limited time from the Back-UPS. Connect Gaming PC, Console, router and Monitor to these outlets so you could stay on line during power outage. Connect equipment such as External Hard Drive, Television or other peripherals that do not need battery backup power to the Surge Protection Only outlets. These outlets provide full-time protection from surges even if the Back-UPS is turned off. USB and Serial Data Port Ground Screw Building Wiring Fault Indicator Coaxial Ports with Surge Protection To use PowerChute Personal Edition, connect the supplied USB communication cable. Connect the ground lead from an additional surge suppression device such as a stand-alone data line surge protector. If this illuminated, there is a problem with the wiring in the building. Contact an electrician immediately and do not use the Back-UPS. Connect a cable modem or other equipment with coaxial jacks. Circuit breaker Reset Button Use to reset the system after an overload condition has tripped the circuit breaker interrupt current flow. Surge Protected Outlets In/Out Ethernet Surge Protected Ports Battery Backup Outlets with Surge Protection Rear LEDs These outlets provide full-time protection from surges, even if the Back-UPS is off. Connect equipment such as printers and scanners that do not require battery backup protection. Use an Ethernet cable to connect a cable modem to the in port, and connect a computer to the OUT port. During a power outage or other AC problems, the Battery Backup receive power for a limited time from the Back-UPS. Connect critical equipment such as Gaming PC, Console, Router or other gaming gear into these outlets. The Rear LEDs provide 12-color ambient lights to help you add/remove loads from outlets.

Reactor Circle: Provides 12-color ambient lights. On Line: The Back-UPS is supplying conditioned Utility power to connected equipment Load Capacity: The approximate load capacity percentage is indicated by the number of load bar sections illuminated. Each bar represents approx 20% of load capacity. Battery Capacity: The battery charge level is indicated by the number of bar sections illuminated. When all five bar sections are illuminated, it indicates that the battery is fully charged. When only one bar section is illuminated, it indicates the battery charge is nearing depletion. Low Battery: When the battery charge is completely depleted and the UPS is nearing shutdown, the indicator will flash accompanied by a continuous beep. Replace Battery: The battery is nearing the end of its useful life and should be replaced immediately. On Battery: The UPS is supplying battery power to the connected equipment. The UPS will emit an audible beep once in every 10 seconds. System Error Detected: A system error has been detected. The system error number will be displayed on the display interface. Refer "Detected System Errors" on page 7, for details. Overload: The connected equipment is drawing more power than the rated capacity of the UPS. 4 Back-UPS Pro Gaming UPS 1500 VA https://manual-hub.com/ Mute: An illuminated line through the icon indicates that the audible alarm is disabled. Out: Output voltage, frequency In: Input voltage, frequency Automatic Voltage Regulation: When illuminated, the Back-UPS is compensating for low input voltage.

Troubleshooting Back-UPS Pro Gaming UPS 1500 VA 9 https://manual-hub.com/ Problem Back-UPS will not switch on. The Back-UPS does not provide power during a utility power outage. The Back-UPS is operating on battery power, while connected to utility power. The Back-UPS does not provide the expected amount of backup time. The Replace Battery indicator is illuminated. The Overload indicator is illuminated. The System Error Detected indicator is illuminated, all the front panel indicators are flashing. Possible Cause The Back-UPS is not connected to utility power. The circuit breaker has tripped. The internal battery is not connected. The input voltage is out of range. Be sure that essential equipment is not plugged into a surge only outlet. Plug is not inserted fully into the wall outlet, the wall outlet is no longer receiving utility power, the circuit breaker has tripped. The Back-UPS is performing an automatic self-test. The input voltage is out of range, the frequency is out of range, or the waveform is distorted. Battery Backup outlets may be fully or improperly loaded. The battery was recently discharged due to a power outage and has not fully recharged. The battery has reached the end of its useful life. The battery has reached the end of its useful life. The equipment connected to the Back-UPS is drawing more power than the Back-UPS can provide. An internal error has been detected. Corrective Action Be sure that the Back-UPS is securely connected to a utility outlet. Disconnect non-essential equipment from the Back-UPS. Reset the circuit breaker. Reconnect equipment one item at a time. If the circuit breaker trips again, disconnect the device that caused the circuit breaker to trip. Connect the battery. Adjust the transfer voltage and sensitivity range. Disconnect equipment from the surge only outlet and re-connect to a Battery Backup outlet. Be sure that the plug is fully inserted into the wall outlet. Be sure that the wall outlet is receiving utility power by checking it with another device. Reset the circuit breaker No action is necessary. Adjust the transfer voltage and sensitivity range. Disconnect non-essential equipment from the Battery Backup outlets and connect the equipment to surge outlets. Charge the battery cartridge for 16 hours. Replace the battery. Replace the battery immediately Disconnect non-essential equipment from the Battery Backup outlets and connect the equipment to surge outlets. Determine the detected system error by matching the detected error number displayed on the LCD with the corresponding detected system error number in "Detected System Errors" table in page 7.
