Matrix-UPS should be set up on a solid level surface if possible. Padding on floor will help dampen system noise.2. User needs to know input voltage to Matrix-UPS.

If 240VAC input, Matrix-UPS Input Select Tap Wire must be moved.3. D16 compressor. Set Matrix-UPS EU (Electronics Unit, the top half of the unit) in place on top of Matrix-UPS IU (Isolation Unit, the bottom half of the unit) and tighten rear knob.4. Add SmartCell battery packs to system, either on top of Matrix-UPS or by its side.5. Hook Anderson connector from SmartCell battery pack to EU slot, then add SmartCell communications cable.Note: Battery communication cable must go from EU's 'batt com' input to the 'output' marking of first SmartCell.

Follow this pattern for additional SmartCell battery packs.6. Once all pieces are connected, turn main circuit breaker located on the rear of Matrix-UPS IU to 'ON' position.7. Front LCD display should read On-line with a% load. If LCD display does not illuminate, press all three buttons found directly underneath the display simultaneously.8.

User can then scroll through menu option of the LCD display to check current Matrix-UPS settings.9. Change the sensitivity setting to LOW (default is AUTO). This LOW setting is preferred.10. Go to menu 'UPS Tests' and perform a battery test.Matrix-UPS NoisesThe Matrix-UPS will make certain noises which are normal to its operation and are acceptable. If the noise is not typical there will probably be other circumstances or errors along with the sound. Below are some of the acceptable sounds and their causes.1. Loud Hum - This sound will be heard anytime the transformer is energizing (usually on startup) and is normal.

The physical size of the transformer and the initial current surge into it causes this sound.2. Beeping - The Matrix-UPS will make different beeps depending on the UPS condition or fault.Line Failure - four beeps about every five secondsBypass - one beep every four secondsBypass with no battery communication - five beepsLine failure with no battery communication - Continuous beepingFailed self test - Chirping3. Clicking/Fineline Output RegulationThis sound will be heard anytime the Matrix-UPS is adjusting taps for voltage regulation, the Matrix-UPS will maintain +/- 5% on the output voltage. For the Matrix-UPS to switch taps, it will first go to battery and then the relays will adjust to the input line.
