Main Outlet Group and the Switched Outlet Group
Overview
The Main Outlet Group and t he Switched Outlet Group can be c onfigured to independently turn off, t urn
on, shut down, and reboot connected equipment. (These features are not avai lable on the 750 VA tower
units.)
The Main Outlet Group and the Switched Outlet Group can be commanded to do the following:
• Turn of f: Disconnect from power immediat el y and restart only with a manual command
• Turn on: Connect to power immediately
• Shutdown: Disconnect power in sequence, a nd automatically reapply power in sequence when
utility power becomes avai lable
• Reboot: Shut down and resta rt
In addition, the Main Outlet Group and the Switched Outlet Group can be configured to do the
following:
• Tur n on or off in a specified sequence
• Automatically turn off or shut down when various conditions occur
Note: If the Main Outlet Group and the Switched Outlet Group ar e not conf igured, all of the
outlets on the unit will still provide battery back-up pow er.
Using the Main Outlet Group and the Switched Outlet Group
The Main Outlet Group functions as a master switch. It will turn on first when po wer is
applied, and shut off last when there is a power outage and battery run-time has been
exhausted.
The Main Outlet Group must be turned on for the Switched Outlet Group to turn on.
1. Connect critical equipment to the Main Outlet Gro up.
2. Connect peripheral equipment to the Switched Ou tlet Group.
– Nonessent ial equipment that s hould shut o ff qui ckl y in the event of a powe r outage to conserve
battery runtime can be added to a short power-off delay
– If equipment has dependent pe ri pherals tha t must resta rt or shut down in a specific order, such
as an ethernet switch that must restart before a connected serve r, connect the devices to
separate groups
– Equipment that needs to reboot inde pe ndently from other equipment should be added to a
separate group
3. Use the Configuration me nus to configure how the Swi tched Outlet Gr oup will react in the event
of a power outage.
Customize the Main Outlet Gr oup and th e Switched Outlet Group
Use the Control menus to change the Switched Outlet Group a nd the Main Outlet Gr oup settings.

Emergency P ower Off
EPO Overview
The Emergency Power Off (EPO) opt ion is a safety feature that will immediately disconne ct all
connected equipment from utili ty powe r. The UPS will immediately shut down and will not switc h to
battery power.
The UPS must be manually r esta rted to rea pply power to co nnected e quipment. P ress ON/OFF on the front
panel of the unit.
Normally open contacts
1. If the EPO switch or relay c ontac ts are normally open, insert the wires
from the switch or contacts a t pins 1 and 2 of the EPO terminal block.
Use 16-28 AWG wire.
2. Secure the wires by tightening the screws.
If the contacts are closed, the UPS will turn OFF and power will be removed from the load.
Normally closed contacts
1. If the EPO switch or relay c ontacts are normally closed, insert th e wires
from the switch or contacts a t pins 2 and 3 of the EPO terminal block.
Use 16-28 AWG wire.
2. Insert a wire jumper between pins 1 and 2. Secure the wires by
tightening t he three screws at positions 1, 2, and 3.
If the contacts are opened, the UPS will turn OFF and power will be removed from the load.
Note: The power for oper a ting the EPO cir cuit is sour ced from pin 1. This is an isolated 24 V which can
source only a few milliamperes.
If the normall y cl osed (NC) EPO confi gurati on is used, the EPO swit ch or relay should be rated f or "dr y"
circuit applic ations, the ra ting should be for low voltage and low current applications. This normally
implies the contacts are gold-plated.
Adhere to all national and local electrical codes when wiring the EPO. Wiri ng must be performed
by a qualified electr ician.
The EPO interface is a Safety Ex tr a Low Voltage (SELV) circuit. Connect the EPO interface only to
other SELV c ircuits. The EPO inter face monitors circuits that have no determined voltage potential.
SELV circuits are contr olled by a switch or relay properly isolated from utility power. To avoid damage
to the UPS, do not connect the EPO interface to any circuit other than a SELV circuit.
