Power management software and interface cable can be used with the UPS.
Use only a supplied or approved interface cable.
Any other serial interface cable will be incompatible with the UPS connector.
The optional Emergency Power Off (EPO) feature allows connected loads to be immediately de-
energized from a remote location, without switching to battery operation (see EPO Option).
The UPS features a transient voltage surge-suppression (TVSS) screw for connecting the ground
lead on surge suppression devices such as telephone and network line protectors.
When connecting grounding cable, disconnect the unit from the utility power outlet.
Optional external battery packs provide extended runtime during power outages. These units
support up to 10 external battery packs.
