How to Install Eaton 5S UPS

• Place the UPS on a flat, well-ventilated surface near the equipment you want to protect. Ensure there is at least some airflow and avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or in a damp area.
• Connect the UPS to a properly grounded wall outlet using the included power cord. Avoid daisy-chaining other power strips or extension cords from the UPS input.
• Plug critical devices (computer, monitor, and essential peripherals) into the battery-backed outlets on the UPS. If available, connect non-critical devices (printers, speakers) to surge-only outlets to maximize runtime for the most important gear.
• Connect the USB cable from the UPS to your computer and install the Eaton UPS Companion software. This software enables automatic shutdown, event logging, and real-time monitoring, helping protect your work and data during outages.
• Power on the UPS and use the LCD to verify status. If needed, enable Eco-Control to optimize energy savings during periods of low load, and configure notification settings so you receive alerts during outages or battery events.
