The additional external battery pack connects to the UPS in the same way whether the UPS is being
used in tower or rack mount format. When used in tower format, the UPS and additional battery packs
can be mounted together in one set of mounting support stands (fig.3.3.6.c).
Connect the cables provided with the battery between UPS and battery pack – plug them between UPS
sockets and nearest sockets on the battery pack (fig.3.3.6.d). The connectors and sockets are keyed and
can be plugged only in correct position. At first start up the value of the total battery capacity has to be
set with the UPS Monitoring software.
