How to use

Place the UPS in a well-ventilated, stable location near the protected equipment and connect the UPS input to a properly grounded 230 V outlet using the IEC C20 connection. Plug critical devices into the IEC C13 and C19 outlets. Configure communication settings via USB or serial to enable monitoring and safe shutdown where required and use the graphic LCD to check status and alarms. For battery-backed operation, ensure the internal lead‑acid battery is charged; after extended storage or battery replacement, allow the UPS to recharge fully (typical recharge time ~3 hours).

Recommendations

For continuous protection, connect only necessary critical equipment to the battery-backed outlets and perform periodic battery checks. Replace the battery with the APC replacement battery cartridge specified for model SMC3000I to restore original runtime. Keep the UPS firmware and monitoring software up to date and place the unit in a cool, dry environment away from direct heat sources.
