The Back-UPS protects a single line, 2 wire telephone 
line, including a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL), a 
modem, a 10/100 Base-T ethernet, or a FAX machine 
from power surges when connected through the 
Back-UPS coaxial connectors.
PowerChute
 Personal Edition Software
Overview
PowerChute Personal Edition Software allows you to use your computer to access additional power protection and 
management features of the Back-UPS.
Using PowerChute, you can: 
•  Preserve work in progress during a power outage by putting your computer into Hibernate mode. 
When the power returns, the computer will appear exactly as it did before the power outage.
•  Configure the Back-UPS management features, such as power-saving outlets, shutdown 
parameters, audible alarms, and more.
•  Monitor and view the status of the Back-UPS, including the estimated runtime, power 
consumption, power event history, and more.
Available features will vary by Back-UPS model and operating system.
If you choose not to install PowerChute, the Back-UPS will still provide backup power and power protection to 
connected equipment. However, you will only be able to configure a limited number of features using the display 
interface.
Compatibility
PowerChute is compatible with Windows operating systems only. For a detailed list of supported operating 
systems, go to www.apc.com, select Software & Firmware.
For Mac operating systems, we recommend using the native shutdown application (within System Preferences) 
which recognizes your battery backup and allows you to configure shutdown of your system during power outages. 
To access this application, connect a USB cable from the Back-UPS 
DATA PORT (POWERCHUTE PORT)
 to a USB 
port on your computer, and see the documentation provided with your computer. 
Install PowerChute
 Software
To install PowerChute Personal Edition (PCPE) software, connect the supplied USB cable between the data port on 
the UPS and to a computer with access to the web.
