CYBERPOWER CP1285D (01) PDF Document

To ensure safe operation of the CYBERPOWER CP1285D, please adhere to the following precautions:

Install the unit in a temperature and humidity controlled indoor area free of conductive contaminants.

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.

Hazardous live parts inside can be energized by the battery even when the AC input power is disconnected.

The UPS must be connected to an AC power outlet with fuse or circuit breaker protection. Do not plug into an outlet that is not grounded. If you need to de-energize this equipment, turn off and unplug the unit.

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.

To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit provided with 20 amperes maximum branch circuit overcurrent protection in accordance with the National Code, ANSI / NFPA 70.

DO NOT USE FOR MEDICAL OR LIFE SUPPORT EQUIPMENT. CyberPower Systems does not sell products for life support or medical applications.

DO NOT USE WITH OR NEAR AQUARIUMS. Condensation from the aquarium can cause the unit to short out.

DO NOT USE WITH LASER PRINTERS. The power demands of these devices will overload and possibly damage the unit.

Follow these steps to set up your CYBERPOWER CP1285D:

Step 1. Recharging the batteries for at least 16 hours is recommended to insure that the battery’s maximum charge capacity is achieved. To recharge the batteries, simply leave the unit plugged into an AC outlet. The unit will charge in both the ON and the OFF position.

Step 2. With the UPS unit off and unplugged, connect your computer, monitor, and any externally powered data storage device into the battery power supplied outlets. Plug your peripheral equipment (printer, scanner, speakers) into the full-time surge protection outlets.

Step 3. DO NOT plug a laser printer, paper shredder, copier, space heater, vacuum or other large electrical device into the UPS. The power demands of these devices will overload and possibly damage the unit.

Step 4. To surge protect a network connection, connect a network cable from the wall jack outlet to the IN jack of the UPS. Then connect a network cable from the OUT jack on the UPS to the network device.

Step 5. Plug the UPS into a 2 pole, 3 wire grounding 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. The use of extension cords, outlet strips, and surge strips is prohibited.

Step 6. Press the power switch to turn the unit on. The power on indicator light will illuminate and the unit will beep once.

Step 7. 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.

Step 8. To maintain optimal battery charge, leave the UPS plugged into an AC outlet at all times.

Step 9. To store your UPS for an extended period, cover it and store with the battery fully charged. While in storage recharge the battery every three months to insure battery life.

The CYBERPOWER CP1285D features the following controls and indicators:

1. Power Switch: Master on/off switch for equipment connected to the battery power supplied outlets.

2. Power On Indicator: This LED is illuminated when the utility condition is normal and the UPS outlets are providing power, free of surges.

3. Using Battery Indicator: This LED is illuminated when the unit is running in the backup condition.

4. AVR Indicator: This LED is illuminated when the unit is running in the Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) mode.

5. Over Load Indicator: This LED is illuminated when the unit is overloaded. You will need to reduce the load.

6. Battery and Surge Protected Outlets: Four battery powered/surge protected outlets for connected equipment during a power failure.

7. Full-Time Surge Protection Outlets: Four always-on surge suppression outlets.

8. Electrical Wiring Fault Indicator: Warns of wiring problems such as bad ground, missing ground, or reversed wiring. If illuminated, disconnect all equipment and have an electrician check the outlet.

9. Communication Protection Ports: Protects standard modem, fax, telephone line, broadband network or Ethernet connections.

10. Circuit Breaker: Located on the side of the UPS to provide overload and fault protection.

11. Serial/USB Ports to PC: Allows connection and communication between the UPS and a computer.

12. Coax/Cable/DSS Surge Protection: Protects cable modems, CATV converters, or DSS receivers.

13. Outlets Designed for AC Adapters: Four outlets spaced to allow AC power adapter blocks without blocking adjacent outlets.

To replace the battery in your CYBERPOWER CP1285D, follow these instructions:

Step 1. Turn off and unplug all connected equipment.

Step 2. Turn the UPS off and unplug it from the AC power source.

Step 3. Turn the UPS upside down.

Step 4. Remove the retaining screw.

Step 5. Slide the battery compartment cover (front panel) completely off of the unit.

Step 6. Remove the batteries from the compartment.

Step 7. Disconnect the battery wires from the batteries.

Step 8. Install the replacement batteries by connecting the red wire and black wire to the same color wires from the battery pack.

Step 9. Put the batteries back into the compartment.

Step 10. Slide back the battery compartment cover and tighten the retaining screw.

Step 11. Recharge the UPS for 8 to 16 hours to fully charge the battery.

Precautionary Measures: Remove all watches, rings or other metal objects. Only use tools with insulated handles. Do not lay tools or metal parts on top of battery or any terminals. Wear rubber gloves and boots.
