Apc Back-ups Cs 500 Manual

There should be a communications cable that came with the APC UPS, one end of this cable will have USB connector on it and the other end may look like an ethernet connector. The USB end of this cable should be plugged into a USB slot on the Mac Pro computer and the other end plugged into the slot labeled Data Port on the APC UPS. With this cable connected the APC UPS will communicate to the computer the charge percentage of the battery and a loss of AC power. After the communications cable is connected click on the Apple symbol on the upper left of the screen, then click on System Preferences, then under System Preferences screen click on Energy Saver. On the Energy Saver Screen should be two boxes at the top center, one labeled Power and the other labeled UPS, click on the UPS box and this will bring up the UPS preferences screen. On the UPS screen should be a box labeled Shutdown Options. Click on the Shutdown Options and this will bring up a screen with three options for Automatic Shutdown of the computer. I have an APC Back UPS 1500, I have set it to shutdown after 3 minutes. Also the Energy Saver Screen will have a box labeled Show UPS status on the menu bar that can be selected to display UPS status on the menu bar. To answer the question of is the UPS overloaded, there could be a yellow display light labeled Overload. If this light is not lit the load is below 1000 volt amperes and within range of the UPS. Or the UPS could have a small Display and a Menu Display button that could be used to check the load on the UPS.
