EPS: Emergency Power System.
Once you have connected the mains and the AC input port of the product via the AC charger cable, you can use the AC output port of the product to power your unit (at this point the AC power comes from the mains, not the battery of the product). In the event of a sudden loss of mains power, the product can automatically switch to battery mode within 20ms. Since this is a non- professional UPS function, it does not support 0ms switching. Do not connect to equipment with high uninterruptible power requirements such as data servers and workstations. Please test several times to confirm compatibility before use and it is recommended to connect to only one device. Do not use more than one unit at a time to avoid triggering the overload protection. Failure to follow these instructions may result in equipment failure or loss of data for which we cannot be held responsible.
