overlapping or blocking adjacent outlets.
ECO FUNCTION SETUP
ECO Function
When the ECO function is active the UPS can detect whether the PC that is connected to the USB port is turned on
or off. If the PC is turned off, the UPS will turn off the ECO controlled outlets and cut power to the devices connect-ed
to them in order to save power.
Generally, these are peripherals that are not used when the PC is not turned on.
ECO Controlled Outlets
Three of the surge-only outlets are also ECO con-trolled outlets. When the PC that is connected to the USB port is
turned off, the UPS will turn off the ECO controlled outlets to save energy.

UPS is receiving utility power and not in battery mode.

ECO function. When the ECO function is selected, press the Mode switch for 3 seconds to turn the function ON
or OFF. Once ON or OFF is selected, wait 8 seconds for the setting to be confirmed and the LCD screen will
return to status mode. For the EC450/550/750G, press the ECO button for 3 seconds to turn ON or OFF the
ECO function.

or if there is no PC is connected to the UPS via USB.
