OVERVIEW
The BC900C / BC1000C / BC1200C / BC1285C / BC1500C provide automatic voltage regulation for
inconsist ent utility power. The BC900C / B C1000C / BC1200C / BC12 85C / BC1500 C features
890/890/1080/1080/1500 Joules of surge protection, and provide battery backup during power outages.
The BC900C / BC1000C / BC1200C / BC1285C / BC1500C ensure consistent power to your computer
system and include software that will automatically save your open files and shutdown your computer
system during a utility power loss.
AUTOMATIC VOLTAGE REGULATOR?
The BC900C / BC1000C / BC1200C / BC1285C / BC1500C stabilize inconsistent utility power. The incoming utility power may be damaging
to important data files, but with Automatic Voltage Regulation, the computer will not experience damaging voltage levels. An Automatic
Voltage Regulator automatically increases low or decreases high voltage to a consistent, computer safe 110v/120v. The unit’s powerful
sealed lead-acid batteries will provide power only if the incoming voltage drops below 90v or increases above 140v.
HARDWARE INSTALLATION GUIDE
1.Your new UPS may be used immediately upon receipt. However, recharging the batteries for at least 16 hours is recommended to insure
that the battery’s maximum charge capacity is achieved. A loss of charge may occur during shipping and storage. To recharge the
batteries, simply leave the unit plugged into an AC outlet. The unit will charge in both the ON as well as the OFF position.
2.With the UPS unit off and unplugged, connect your computer, monitor, and any externally powered data storage device (Zip drive, Jazz
drive, Tape drive, etc…) into the battery power supplied outlets. Plug your peripheral equipment (printer, scanner, speakers) into the full-
time surge protection outlets. 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.
3.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.
4.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 (e.g. refrigerator, copier, etc…).
The warranty prohibits the use of extension cords, outlet strips, and surge strips.
5.Press the power switch to turn the unit on. The power on indicator light will illuminate and the unit will “beep” once.
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. While in storage recharge the battery every
three months to insure battery life.

The LCD display indicates a variety of UPS
operational conditions. All descriptions apply
when the UPS is plugged into an AC outlet
and turned on or when the UPS is on battery.
INPUT voltage meter: This meter measures the AC voltage that the UPS system is
receiving from the utility wall outlet. The UPS is designed, through the use of automatic
voltage regulation, to continuously supply connected equipment with stable, 110/120
output voltage. In the event of a complete power loss, severe brownout, or over-voltage,
the UPS relies on its internal battery to supply consistent 110/120 output voltage. The
INPUT voltage meter can be used as a diagnostic tool to identify poor-quality input power.
OUTPUT voltage meter: This meter measures, in real time, the AC voltage that the UPS
system is providing to the computer, such as normal line mode, AVR mode, and battery
back up mode.
Note: The OUTPUT voltage meter shows the status of the battery back up outlets.
ESTIMATE RUN TIME: This displays the run time estimate of the UPS with the current
battery capacity and load.
NORMAL icon: This icon appears when the UPS is working under normal conditions.
BATTERY icon: During a severe brownout or blackout, this icon appears and an alarm sounds (two short beeps followed by a pause) to
indicate the UPS is operating from its internal batteries. During a prolonged brownout or blackout, the alarm will sound continuously (and the
BATT.CAPACITY meter shows one 20% capacity segment shaded) to indicate the UPS’s batteries are nearly out of power. You should save
files and turm off your equipment immediately.
A.V.R (Automatic Voltage Regulator) icon: This icon appears whenever your UPS is automatically correcting low AC line voltage without
using battery power. This is a normal, automatic operation of your UPS, and no action is required on your part.
SILENT MODE icon:This icon appears whenever the UPS is in silent mode. The buzzer does not beep during silent mode until the battery
reaches low capacity.
OVER LOAD icon: This icon appears and an alarm sounds to indicate the battery-supplied outlets are overloaded. To clear the overload,
unplug some of your equipment from the battery-supplied outlets until the icon turns off and the alarm stops.
FAULT icon: This icon appears if there is a problem with the UPS. Contact CyberPower Systems at [email protected] for
further help and support.
BATT. CAPACITY meter: This meter displays the approximate charge level (in 20% increments) of the UPS’s internal battery. During a
blackout or severe brownout, the UPS switches to battery power, the BATTERY icon appears, and the charge level decreases.
LOAD CAPACITY meter: This meter displays the approximate output load level (in 20% increments) of the UPS’s battery outlets.
