The OR1000ELCDRM1U/OR1500ELCDRM1U provides automatic voltage regulation for inconsistent 
utility power. The OR1000ELCDRM1U/OR1500ELCDRM1U features 1030 Joules of surge protection, 
and provides battery backup during power outages.    The OR1000LCDRM1U/OR1500LCDRM1U 
ensures consistent power to your computer system and its included software will automatically save 
your open files and shutdown your computer system during a utility power loss. 

 

 
1. Make sure that the total Volt-Amp (VA) requirements of your computer, monitor, and peripheral 

equipment does not exceed 1000 VA/ 1500VA. 

2. Ensure that the equipment plugged into the four battery power-supplied/surge outlets does not 

exceed the UPS unit's rated capacity (1000VA/600W for OR1000ELCDRM1U, 1500VA//900W for 
OR1500ELCDRM1U).    If the rated unit capacities are exceeded, an overload condition may occur 
and cause the UPS unit to shut down and the circuit breaker to trip.     

3. If the power requirements of your equipment are listed in units other than Volt-Amps (VA), convert 

Watts (W) or Amps (A) into VA by performing the calculations below.  Note:  The equation listed 
below only calculates the maximum amount of VA that the equipment can use, not what is typically 
used by the equipment at given time.    Users should expect usage requirements to be approximately 
60% of the maximum power requirements: 
Watts (W) x 1.67 = 

VA or  Amps (A) x 230 = 

VA 

Add the totals up for all pieces of equipment and multiply this total by 0.6 to calculate the approximate 

requirements. 

There are many factors that can affect the amount of power that your computer system will require.   

The total load that you will be placing on the battery-powered outlets should not exceed 80% of the 
unit's capacity.

1. Your new UPS may be used immediately upon receipt.    However, recharging the battery for at least 

four hours is recommended to ensure that the battery's maximum charge capacity is achieved.   
Charge loss may occur during shipping and storage.    To recharge the battery, simply leave the unit 
plugged into an AC outlet.    The unit will charge in both the on and off position. 

2. If you will use the software, connect the USB cable to the USB port on the UPS.   
3. With the UPS unit off and unplugged, connect the computer, monitor, and any externally powered 

data storage device (Zip drive, Jazz drive, Tape drive, etc. into the battery power supplied outlets.   
DO NOT plug a laser printer, copier, space heater, vacuum, paper shredder or other large 
electrical device into the UPS.    The power demands of these devices will overload and 
possibly damage the unit. 

4. To protect a fax, telephone, modem line or network cable, connect a telephone cable or network cable 

from the wall jack outlet to the IN jack of the UPS. Then connect a telephone cable or network cable 
from the OUT jack on the UPS to the modem, computer, telephone, fax machine, or network device. 

5. Plug the UPS into a 2 pole, 3 wire grounded receptacle (wall outlet).    Make sure the wall branch 

outlet is protected by a fuse or circuit breaker and does not service equipment with large electrical 
demands (e.g. air conditioner, refrigerator, copier, etc. Avoid using extension cords.    If used, the 
extension cord must be grounded and rated for 15 amps.   

6. Depress the power switch to turn the unit on.    The power on indicator light will illuminate and the unit 

will "beep" once. 

7. If an overload is detected, an audible alarm will sound and the unit will emit one long beep.    To 

correct this, turn the UPS off and unplug at least one piece of equipment from the battery power 
supplied outlets.  Wait 10 seconds.  Make sure the circuit breaker is depressed and then turn the 
UPS on. 

8. Your UPS is equipped with an auto-charge feature.    When the UPS is plugged into an AC outlet, the 

battery will automatically recharge. 

9. To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged into an AC outlet at all times. 
10. To store your UPS for an extended period, cover it and store with the battery fully charged.   

Recharge the battery every three months to ensure battery life.
