Terminal) via the seven-pin output connector, using the appropriate cable (must be ordered
separately). See www.apc.com for a list of available output cables.
2. Plug the PowerShield power cord into the utility power cord inlet and then into the wall outlet.
Do not overload the wall outlet or circuit.
Cold Start Feature: Upon installation of a charged battery, power will immediately be applied to
the unit even when utility power is not present.
Attention: To disconnect from utility power, remove the plug from the wall outlet.
Optional Runtime Extension
The runtime may be extended by adding the external battery CP20B12BP.
