SB-1000 MANUAL
OPERATION
1) Operation check
It is recommended that the user perform a
simulation test when using the UPS for the
first time or when adding an additional piece
of equipment. Conduct a simulation-test: first,
switch on the UPS and wait for the power
indicator to light up, then simply unplug the
UPS to simulate a utility failure.
2) Check the power requirement of your
equipment
A. Make sure the total power of your equipment
does not exceed rating capacity. (600W /
1000VA)
B. Also make sure the equipment you plugged
into the Battery Power-Supplied outlets does
not require total power exceeding the capacity
of the UPS (600W / 1000VA). Otherwise,
overload may occur and cause the circuit
breaker to trip.
3) Limited rating power of UPS
When a utility failure occurs, the UPS output
outlets will supply power to your equipment
from its battery, and the alarm will beep every
5 seconds. Be sure that your equipment is
running under the limited rating power. Plug
the UPS back into the existing power source.
Repeat the test a few times to make sure the
UPS works properly and to determine the
expected runtime.
