Start Up the POD

1. If you already have a UPS installed, turn off all connected loads and unplug them from

the UPS. Turn off the UPS and disconnect the UPS input cord.

2. Make sure the 3U POD rotary switch is in the UTILITY position. Plug the POD input cord

(labeled UTILITY) into the utility outlet (wall receptacle).

WARNING: The 3U POD is now electrically live. The UTILITY lamp (orange) should now

be illuminated.

3. Plug the UPS input cord into the receptacle on top of the 3U POD labeled “CONNECT

UPS LINE CORD HERE.”

WARNING: The UPS system is now electrically live.

4. Connect the second POD input cord (labeled UPS) into the matching load receptacle on

the rear of the UPS.

5. Plug in all loads to the output distribution receptacles, evenly distributing them on the

3U POD. The 3U POD now powers your equipment in the UTILITY mode.

6. Turn ON the loads and ensure all are up and operating according to specification.

7. Start the UPS according to its specific user manual.

8. Verify that the UPS lamp (green) on the 3U POD is illuminated. If so, transfer the rotary

switch from UTILITY to UPS. The load is now being supplied with conditioned power

through the UPS.

9. Before any operation or procedure, always verify that both the UPS lamp (green) and the

UTILITY lamp (orange) are illuminated before changing the status of the rotary switch.
