Microsoft recommends that you disconnect any UPS before
upgrading your Windows NT release. This precaution applies to
APC UPSs. During upgrades, Windows NT sends character strings
to the serial ports. If an APC UPS is in advanced signaling mode, it
may interpret such a character string as an instruction to switch to
battery operation, causing the UPS to run on battery for the rest of
the Windows NT installation. Such an unnecessary switch to
battery power reduces battery run time and could cause the
installation to fail if the battery has insufficient run time remaining.
