3. Installation 3A. Storing the UPS and Recharging the Battery Always store the equipment in its original packaging. The battery is of the sealed lead-acid type. Battery recharge requires that the battery module be plugged into an energized NEMA 5-15 receptacle for 6-8 hours. The battery may be charged in the box by pulling the AC cord out through the bottom. Battery storage or prolonged shutdown should never exceed 6 months or 68°F (20°C), for a battery initially at 100% charge. The battery war

The transistor resistance is 27 ohms and the maximum current allowed is 140mA AC or DC with ambient temperature of up to 40°C. In order to get a "logic low" you have to limit the current to: logic low voltage required divided by 27, logic low voltage = 0.5V. I max = 0.5/27=0.0185A=18mA. If you intend to use other forms of communication, an optional Multi-slot Communication is available that will convert the RS232 serial commands into the following formats: w Ethernet, SNMP w J-Bus/RS422 w High

If desired, the UPS can be set up to operate at a known, fixed frequency regardless of the detected utility frequency. Fixed-frequency operation is often desirable in installations that make use of cold-start capability. Discussion on this is in the Advanced Configuration Section (section 6) of this manual. If utility power is present and within specifications, your UPS will start up in bypass mode. Power will be supplied to your computer loads and will be protected from a utility loss. The util
