Overview
The APC® by Schneider Electric Smart-UPS® SRC 5/6/8/10 kVA is a high performance uninterruptible
power supply (UPS). It provides protection for electronic equipment from utility power blackouts,
brownouts, sags, and surges; small utility fluctuations and large disturbances. The UPS also provides
battery backup power until utility power returns to safe levels or the batteries are fully discharged.
Refer to the APC Web site, www.apc.com for available Network Management Card options.

Standard menus
The Standard menus are the most commonly used menus for UPS configuration.
Advanced menus
The Advanced menus provide additional options for the UPS and are available only if the display
interface is configured to use the Advanced menus.
Connect the serial cable to the serial port on the back of the UPS. If using USB communication to the
UPS, disconnect USB cable prior to connecting serial cable.
1. Once the blank terminal window is open, follow these steps to enter the number of battery packs:
NOTE: Letter key commands are case sensitive. Use capital letters when using letter key
commands.
2. Press Y. The UPS will respond with SM in the command box. If the UPS does not respond to the
Y command, ensure the serial cable is securely connected to the serial port on the UPS. Use only
an APC supplied serial cable.
3. When SM appears in the command box press the > key. The UPS will respond with the number
of battery packs connected to the UPS. If the UPS has not been previously programmed to
recognize the number of battery packs this number will be 1.
4. Use the + or - keys to change the number of battery packs. OK will appear in the command box.
5. Press > key. The number of battery packs will appear in the command box.
NOTE: The + or - keys and the > key must be used again to change the number of battery packs
from this point in the programming.

The switch should be connected in a normally open switch contact. External voltage is not required; the
switch is driven by 24 V internal supply. In closed condition, 4 mA of current are drawn.
The EPO switch is internally powered by the UPS for use with non-powered switch circuit breakers.
The EPO circuit is considered a Class 2 circuit, (UL, CSA standards) and a SELV circuit (IEC standard).
EPO connector • Strip insulation from one end of each wire to be used
located on the UPS rear panel for connecting EPO.
• Insert screwdriver into the slot above terminal to be

wired. Insert stripped wire into terminal. Remove
screwdriver to secure wire in terminal. Repeat for
each terminal.

Both Class 2 and SELV circuits must be isolated from all primary circuitry. Do not connect any circuit to the EPO
terminal block unless it can be confirmed that the circuit is Class 2 or SELV. If circuit standard cannot be
confirmed, use a contact closure switch.
Use one of the following cable types to connect the UPS to the EPO switch.
• CL2: Class 2 cable for general use.
• CL2P: Plenum cable for use in ducts, plenums, and other spaces used for environmental air.
• CL2R: Riser cable for use in a vertical run in a floor-to-floor shaft.
• CLEX: Limited use cable for use in dwellings and for use in raceways.
• For installation in Canada: Use only CSA certified, type ELC, (extra-low voltage control cable).
• For installation in other countries: Use standard low-voltage cable in accordance with national and
local regulations.
Bypass Overload alarm on LCD panel, UPS emits a sustained alarm tone
The UPS is overloaded The connected equipment exceeds the specified maximum load as defined in

Once the battery packs have been disconnected the connected equipment is not
protected from power outages.
When the battery packs have been replaced the LED on the display interface will prompt the
user to enter a new battery replacement date.
Return spent batteries to an appropriate facility for proper disposal and recycling.
