1 - Remove the power cord supplying the equipment to be protected.

2 - Connect the power cord (1) just removed from the equipment to the AC-power socket

␣ ␣ 8 , and then to the AC-power wall outlet.

3 - Connect the protected equipment to the

UPS using the two cords 20 .

Connect priority loads to the two standard outlets ␣ 5 and any non-priority loads to the two programmable outlets ␣ ␣ 6 (1 and 2).

If the UPS is connected to a computer running MGE communications software, it is possible to program the interruption of power to the programmable outlets 6 during operation on battery power, thus reserving backup power for the priority loads.

4 - Lock the connections using the securing system 26 (for rack models only).

As soon as the UPS is energised, the battery begins charging. Eight hours are required to charge to the full rated backup time.

(1) Make sure the cord has the following characteristics: 250 V, 10 A, cross-sectional area

1␣ mm 2 , type HO5.
