4.3. OPERATING PRINCIPLE

• It is an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) system with line-interactive technology that offers the best protection solution for the units and the information that make up both domestic and professional IT environments (small businesses, offices, shops, etc.).
• The use of AVR Boost&Buck technology – permanent stabilisation of the supply voltage – provides a two-fold advantage: higher protection of connected loads, combined with a reduced use of UPS batteries.
• In the case of a power supply outage, it supplies electrical power from the batteries to ensure the units continue operating.
• It is also worth mentioning the built-in communication functions to communicate between the UPS and computer system through the USB HID port (communication cable supplied with the unit) and the monitoring software, compatible with Windows, Linux, Unix and Mac.

4.3.1. Features

• Line-interactive technology
• High level of reliability through control by microprocessor
• AVR Boost&Buck permanent stabilisation
• USB HID interface in all models, by default
• Monitoring software for Windows, Linux, Unix and Mac
• A single on/off button for easy and convenient use
• Protection against overloads, short-circuits and transients
• Smart battery charger that reduces the average recharging time
• Recharging the batteries with the equipment switched off
• Cold start function using the batteries (not connected to the mains)
• Automatic start-up after the input voltage is reconnected

INSTALLATION

• Read and follow the Safety Information set out in chapter 2 of this document. Failure to adhere to any of the indications set out in chapter 2 may cause a serious or very serious accident for those who are in direct contact with the unit or who are in the vicinity, as well as faults in the unit and/or in the loads connected to it.

• Check that the information on the name plate is the right information for the installation.

• Once you have unpacked the unit, inspect it and ensure that it is in perfect condition before proceeding. If this is not the case, please contact your distributor.

• Limitations to the connection and use of the unit according to its morphology and sector or work environment:
  • For its connection.
  – In units with a power supply plug and output sockets (with no connection terminals).
  It can be connected by staff with no specific technical training; in general, by anyone who uses household appliances.
  • For its use.
  – Unit with no connection terminals, generally designed for household environments and, to a lesser extent, for shops, industry and other sectors. The unit can be used by staff with no specific technical training by simply following the instructions in the user manual.

• Always bear in mind that the UPS is an electrical generator, which is why the user must take the necessary precautions to prevent direct or indirect contact.

5.1. STORAGE LOCATION AND CONDITIONS

• Install the UPS in a protected area that does not have excessive humidity but has suitable ventilation.
• Place the UPS at a distance of at least 20 cm from other units to prevent interference.
• Do not operate the unit where the temperature and humidity exceed the permitted limits (see the technical specifications).

5.2. CONNECTING THE UNIT TO THE MAINS FOR THE FIRST TIME OR AFTER IT HAS BEEN OUT OF USE FOR TWO MONTHS

• Insert the mains plug 1 into an AC socket. In models with an IEC socket, a cable is supplied to power the unit. Insert the end of the connector into the base 2 and the plug on the other end into the AC socket.
•  For the best results, charge the battery for at least 4 hours before using the unit for the first time or when it has been out of use for more than two months. Otherwise, the SPS.ONE may not react in a satisfactory way if there is an outage during the initial operating hours. Its response capacity during unexpected AC power supply failures is dependent on the energy accumulated in the battery.
• The battery charges by simply connecting the unit to the mains.

5.3. CONNECTING THE LOADS

• Connect the loads to the sockets 3 on the rear of the unit.
• Never connect a laser printer or scanner to the UPS. This may damage the unit and/or consume the energy stored in the batteries, which is reserved for other more  ensitive and more important types of loads.

5.4. CONNECTING THE COMMUNICATION CABLE

• To enable unattended start-up/stop of the UPS and to monitor its status, connect one end of the communication cable to the connector 4 of the USB HID port of SPS.ONE and the other end to the communication port of the PC.
• With the monitoring software installed in your PC, you can programme the UPS start-up/stopping time, as well as monitor its status in real-time. Follow the steps described below before downloading and installing the monitoring software:

5.5. DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE

• To download the free monitoring software, register as a user and then register your unit(s) at the following site: support.salicru.com
• You will find a link to the “ACTIVATION GUIDE” on the registration page. Follow the steps indicated.
• Once you have registered, you can download the software for each model from the site: support.salicru.com/software
• Use with your installation as with any other type of software.
• When you reboot your PC, the monitoring software will appear as an orange icon on the system tray, next to the clock.

5.6. STARTING UP/STOPPING THE UNIT
5.6.1. Starting up the SPS.ONE

• With SPS.ONE stopped, press the button 7 to start the unit.
• Start up the loads.

5.6.2. Stopping the SPS.ONE

• Stopping the loads.
• Switch the unit off, press the button 7.
