Install PowerChute
Personal Edition Software
Use PowerChute Personal Edition software to configure the UPS settings. During a
power outage, PowerChute will save any open files on your computer and shut it down.
When power is restored, it will restart the computer.
Note: PowerChute is only compatible with a Windows operating system. If you are
using Mac OSX, use the native shutdown feature to protect your system. See the
documentation provided with your computer.
Installation
Use the cable supplied with the Back-UPS to connect the data port on the Back-UPS to
the USB port on your computer. On the computer, go to www.apc.com Search for
“PowerChute Personal Edition” then click on “View Details” to download the latest
version of PCPE software. Click the download link and select Software product. Select
the appropriate operating system. Follow directions to download the software.
Connect the Equipment
Battery backup and surge protected outlets
When the Back-UPS is receiving input power, the Battery Backup with Surge Protection
outlets will supply power to connected equipment. During a power outage or other AC
problems, the Battery Backup outlets receive power for a limited time from the Back-
UPS.
Connect equipment such as printers, fax machines, scanners, or other peripherals that do
not need battery backup power to the Surge Protection Only outlets. These outlets
provide full-time protection from surges even if the Back-UPS is switched OFF.
