This manual contains important instructions that should be followed during installation and maintenance of
the UPS and batteries. Please read and follow all instructions carefully during installation and operation of
the unit. Read this manual thoroughly before attempting to unpack, install, or operate.
CAUTION! The UPS must be connected to a grounded AC power outlet with fuse or circuit breaker
protection. DO NOT plug the UPS into an outlet that is not grounded. If you need to de-energize this
equipment, turn off and unplug the UPS.
CAUTION! DO NOT USE FOR MEDICAL OR LIFE SUPPORT EQUIPMENT! CyberPower Systems does
not sell products for life support or medical applications. DO NOT use in any circumstance that would affect
the operation or safety of any life support equipment, with any medical applications, or patient care.
CAUTION! The battery can energize hazardous live parts inside even when the AC input power is
disconnected.
CAUTION! To prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, install in a temperature and humidity controlled indoor
area, free of conductive contaminants. (Please see specifications for acceptable temperature and humidity
range).
CAUTION! To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover, except to service the battery. There
are no user serviceable parts inside, except for the battery.
CAUTION! To avoid electrical shock, turn off the unit and unplug it from the AC power source before
servicing the battery or installing a computer component.
CAUTION! DO NOT USE WITH OR NEAR AQUARIUMS! To reduce the risk of fire, do not use with or near
aquariums. Condensation from the aquarium can come in contact with metal electrical contacts and cause
the machine to short out.

OVERVIEW
The Value 1200E-GP/1500E-GP/2200E-GP provides automatic voltage regulation for inconsistent utility
power. The Value 1200E-GP/1500E-GP/2200E-GP features 910 Joules of surge protection, and provides
battery backup during power outages. The Value 1200E-GP/1500E-GP/2200E-GP ensures consistent power
to your computer system and its included software will automatically save your open files and shut down your
computer system during a utility power loss.
HOW TO DETERMINE THE POWER REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR
EQUIPMENT
1. Ensure that the equipment plugged into the battery power-supplied/surge outlets does not exceed the
UPS unit’s rated capacity (1200VA/720W for Value 1200E-GP, 1500VA/900W for Value 1500E -GP,
2200VA/1320W for Value 2200E-GP). If the rated unit capacities are exceeded, an overload condition
may occur and cause the UPS unit to shut down or the fuse blow.
2. There are many factors that can affect the amount of power that your computer system will require. For
optimal system performance keep the load below 80% of the unit’s rated capacity.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION GUIDE
1. Your new UPS may be used immediately upon receipt. However, recharging the battery for at least 8
hours is recommended to ensure that the battery's maximum charge capacity is achieved. Charge loss
may occur during shipping and storage. To recharge the battery, simply leave the unit plugged into an AC
outlet. The unit will charge in both the on and off position.
2. With the UPS unit off and unplugged, connect the computer, monitor, and any externally powered data
storage device (Zip drive, Jazz drive, Tape drive, etc. into the battery power supplied outlets. DO NOT
plug a laser printer, copier, space heater, vacuum, paper shredder or other large electrical device
into the battery power supplied outlets. The power demands of these devices will overload and
possibly damage the unit.
3. To protect a fax, telephone, modem line or network, connect a telephone cable or network cable from the
wall jack outlet to the IN jack of the UPS. Then connect a telephone cable or network cable from the OUT
jack on the UPS to the modem, computer, telephone, fax machine, or network device.
4. Plug the UPS into a 2 pole, 3 wire grounded receptacle (wall outlet). Make sure the wall branch outlet is
protected by a fuse or circuit breaker and does not service equipment with large electrical demands (e.g.
air conditioner, refrigerator, copier, etc. Avoid using extension cords.
5. Depress the power switch to turn the unit on. The power on indicator light will illuminate and the unit will
"beep".
6. If an overload is detected, an audible alarm will sound and the unit will emit one long beep. To correct this,
turn the UPS off and unplug at least one piece of equipment from the battery power supplied outlets. Wait
10 seconds. Make sure the circuit breaker is depressed and then turn the UPS on.
7. To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged into an AC outlet at all times.
8. To store your UPS for an extended period, cover it and store with the battery fully charged. Recharge the
battery every three months to ensure battery life.
