TESTING YOUR UPS SYSTEM
Once you have set up your UPS system, you may wish to test it. Make sure that the UPS has been charged for at least 4 hours before performing this test.
If you are using PowerPanel Plus™:
1. With your UPS and computer on, open an application such as notepad.
2. Enter some data into the application.
3. Unplug the UPS from the AC outlet.
When a power failure occurs, PowerPanel Plus™ will appear on the screen. The outlet and battery symbols will change to indicate a power failure. The
countdown timer will move towards zero. When the timer reaches zero, the software will begin to save and close any open applications. The software will
auto-assign names to any files that have not been previously saved, and then save the file to the
PCTemp
folder which is located in the root directory of your
C drive
(where
C
is the name of your main hard drive). Once all open files have been saved and closed, PowerPanel Plus™ will shut down the operating
system. Once the operating system is shutdown, the UPS will turn off within 90 seconds. Wait until the UPS has turned off before plugging the UPS back
into the outlet.
Once the test has been completed, plug the UPS back into the AC outlet and turn it back on. You may then restart your computer. Please allow 4 hours for
the UPS to recharge before attempting another self-test.
If you are not using PowerPanel Plus™:
1. Have your computer and UPS turned on.
2. Unplug the UPS from the wall to simulate a power failure.
3. The UPS will begin beeping, indicating a power failure.
4. Save and close any open files.
5. Shut down the operating system.
6. Once the computer system is shutdown, turn the UPS off.
