Inspect the UPS upon receipt. The box should contain the following:

UPS Unit; PowerPanel   Personal Edition Software Disk x 1; USB Cable x 1; Telephone Cable x 1; 

IEC-IEC Power Cord x 2; UPS User Manual; Warranty Card.

1. Insure that the equipment plugged into the battery power-supplied outlets does not exceed the UPS 

unit’s rated capacity (425VA/255W for UP425UIT, 550VA/330W for UP550UI, 750VA/450W for UP750UI). 

If rated unit capacities are exceeded, an overload condition may occur and cause the UPS unit to shut 

down or the circuit breaker to trip.

2. 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 doing the calculations below. Note: The below equation only calculates 

the maximum amount of VA that the equipment can use, not what is typically used by the equipment at 

any one time. Users should expect usage requirements to be approximately 60% of below value.

1.            Watts (W) x 1.6 =            VA or           Amps (A) x 230 =           VA

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

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. Connect the equipment to your UPS outlets. The IEC-IEC power cords coming with the unit are used to 

connect your computer and monitor to the UPS. Items such as copiers, laser printers, vacuums, space 

heaters, or other large electrical devices should not be connected to the UPS. Please make sure that the 

total loads of your equipments are less than the maximum total power load of your UPS.

2. Use your computer power cord to connect the UPS to a wall outlet. Please avoid using extension cords 

and adapter plugs. (To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged in at all times.) 

3. Press the UPS power button to turn it on. The “Power On” indicator will be illuminated in “Green”.

4. Install your software and accessories. To use the software, simply connect the enclosed USB/Serial 

interface cable to the USB/Serial port on the UPS and an open USB/Serial port on the computer.

 Read and follow the 

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS before servicing the battery.  

precautions. Keep unauthorized personnel away from batteries. If you have questions, contact your 

dealer or call the number in this manual for information on battery replacement.

 

Use only the specified type of battery. See your dealer for replacement batteries.

 The battery may present the risk of electrical shock. 

Do not dispose of batteries in a fire, 

as it may explode. Follow all local ordinances regarding proper disposal of batteries.

 Do not open or mutilate the batteries. Release electrolyte is harmful to the skin and eyes 

and may be toxic.

 A battery can present a high risk of short circuit current and electrical shock. 

1. Remove all watches, rings or other metal objects.

2. Only use tools with insulated handles.

3. 

DO NOT lay tools or other metal parts on top of battery or any battery terminals.

4. Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove source of ground. 

    

CONTACT WITH A GROUNDED BATTERY CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK! The likelihood of

    such shock will be reduced if such grounds are removed during installation and maintenance

    (applicable to a UPS and a remote battery supply not having a grounded circuit).

5. Batteries are consider 

HAZARDOUS WASTE and must be disposed of properly. Contact your local

    government for more information about proper disposal and recycling of batteries.

6. Turn off and unplug all connected equipment.

7. Turn the UPS off and unplug it from the AC power source.

8. Turn the UPS upside down.

9. 

Note! The battery replacement is not available for UP425UIT.

Press the power button to turn the UPS ON or OFF.

This LED is illuminated when the utility condition is normal and the UPS outlets are providing 

“clean power”, free of surges and spikes.

This illuminates during utility failure, indicating that the battery is supplying power to the 

battery-power supplied outlets.

The LED illuminates when the UPS battery is no longer useful and must be replaced.

Please see manual “Battery replacement procedure”.

The LED illuminates when the loads connected to the UPS exceed the UPS

capacity.

The UPS provides battery powered and surge protected outlets for connected equipment to 

insure temporary uninterrupted operation during a power failure and against surges and 

spikes.

The UPS provides surge protected only outlet for connected equipments against surges and 

spikes.

Fuse provide optimal overload protection. When overload occurs, the fuse will broken and 

UPS switches to battery mode. You will need to change the spare fuse that provided with the 

unit so the UPS will provide the power from utility.  

This Port allows connection and communication from USB port on the computer to the UPS 

unit. The UPS communicates its status to the PowerPanel  Personal Edition software. This 

interface is also compatible with the UPS service provided by Windows 

R

 2000 and   

Windows 

R

 XP.

This port allows connection and communication from the DB-9 serial on the computer to the 

UPS unit. 

Note: Only one of the above two ports can be used to communicate with your computer at 

one time.

Note: To install PowerPanel   Personal Edition Software the computer will need Microsoft 

R

 

Internet Explore 5.0 or higher installed.

Note: If using the Serial Port, users need to download PowerPanel

  

 software from our 

website http://www.cyberpower-eu.com and order the standard serial cable.

These ports are used for the protection of your network devices from the surge and spike 

through network cables.

These DIP switch setting is used for choosing the UPS input voltage sensitivity. The default 

value is 180Vac ~ 266Vac which is used for most the computer systems and switching power 

supply. The high sensitivity value is 196Vac ~ 256Vac which is used for some precision 

instruments. And the low sensitivity value is 160Vac ~ 278Vac which is used for the wild 

voltage power supplies.
