UPS Installation

Mounting the Universal Power Supply

Prior to putting the GigaCenter into service, the UPS must be mounted to ensure the low

voltage power cord that is connected between the UPS and the GigaCenter is long enough to

span the distance between the two devices.

Depending on your configuration, power cords of varying lengths may be included:



The AC power cord that runs from the UPS to the AC wall outlet is 8-feet long. Make

sure an AC outlet is available within that distance.



The power/signal cord that runs from the UPS to the GigaCenter is available in any of

the following configurations based on model.

844G-1/854G-1 (North American Markets), Sold Separately



Connectorized Power and Signal Cable - An 8-pin (GigaCenter end) to 7-pin terminal

block (UPS end) cable available in 3 foot (1 meter) or 10 foot (3 meters) lengths.



Connectorized Power and Signal Cable - An 8-pin (GigaCenter end) to dressed and

tinned (un-terminated) cable available in 20 foot (6 meter) length.



Power Adapter, 2-prong Type A - An 8-pin (GigaCenter end) to standard North

American 2-prong electrical outlet (how long?)

Mounting the UPS

WARNING!

High voltage electrical and pressurized natural gas lines may be

present. Make sure you fully understand the locations of these and all other utility

connections before drilling through any surface.

CAUTION!

The UPS is designed for indoor installation and must be installed in a

location with adequate airflow.

Make sure the UPS is not installed under water pipes which may leak or drip from

condensation.

Note:

The UPS must be located less than 50 feet (15.2 meters) from the GigaCenter when

using an 18 AWG Type I power cord or less than 70 feet (21.3 meters) from the GigaCenter

when using 16 AWG Type II power cord.

1.

Unpack the UPS and associated hardware from the carton.

2.

Find a suitable location for the UPS and prepare mounting screws per the mounting hole

pattern shown below.

Note:

Refer to the back of this guide for a UPS mounting template.

1.

Pre-drill mounting holes (to accept an 8-32 pan head screw - not provided) of the

appropriate size.

Important:

Make sure the material you are mounting the UPS to is of sufficient strength

to support its weight of 7.16 pounds (3.25 kgs).

2.

Insert a screw into each hole, leaving 3/16-inch (.48 cm) of the screw protruding from

the wall.

3.

Align the key slots on the top of the UPS with the screws and slide the unit down into

place.

4.

If the UPS is not snug after test fitting the mounting screws, remove the UPS and tighten

the mounting screws slightly to allow for a tighter fit.

5.

Unpack the battery and slide it into the UPS housing.

6.

Attach the battery leads to the battery (red to red, black to black).

7.

Re-install the battery cover.

Installing the Power/Signal Cable

The cable providing power and alarm signaling from the UPS to the GigaCenter is pre-wired

and ready for plug-and-play use. This pre-wired power/signal cable is available in 3 foot (1

meter) or 10 foot (3 meter) lengths.

Note:

A 20 foot (6 meters) cord is also available including a (2 x 4) 8-pin connector on the

GigaCenter end and dressed and tinned non-terminated 7-wire on the opposite end (provides

"cut to length" option).

To connect the power/signal cable

1.

Locate the power and alarm cable and remove any cable ties.

2.

Plug one end into the UPS and plug the other end into the GigaCenter ([2 x 4] 8-pin

connector).
