Hi, I have a question on the operation of the above referenced unit that I am hope someone maybe able to help me with.
If the mains power is connected and the unit is turned off using the on/off switch on the front facia does this turn off power to all the outlets or does does it just turn off the provision of battery backup if the mains power is disconnected?
A supplementary question...........In the event that it does isolate the controlled outputs then is the on/off switch provided with a double confirm in the case that the switch is bumped say?
Thanks

The power button when toggled turns off the outputs. To turn the unit off completely you must press and hold down the button.
Depending upon (UPS) firmware in place and production year. Using the steps outlined above (Only) turns off the output it does not disconnect AC Mains from the internal system.
The EPO circuit is the only thing that will rapidly turn off and disconnect AC Mains from the main unit.
You can easily validate your specific system by completing those tasks and report what you see and observe.
Let me know if you have more questions. If not and this reply answered your query please do mark it as a solution.
So it may help the next person asking the same. 👍
