Personal Edition Software

Overview

PowerChute Personal Edition Software allows you to use your computer to access additional power protection and management

features of the Back-UPS.

Using PowerChute, you can:

• Preserve work in progress during a power outage by putting your computer into Hibernate mode. When the power returns, the computer will

appear exactly as it did before the power outage.

• Configure the Back-UPS management features, such as power-saving outlets, shutdown parameters, audible alarms, and more.

• Monitor and view the status of the Back-UPS, including the estimated runtime, power consumption, power event history, and more.

Available features will vary by Back-UPS model and operating system.

If you choose not to install PowerChute, the Back-UPS will still provide backup power and power protection to connected

equipment. However, you will only be able to configure a limited number of features using the display interface.

Compatibility

PowerChute is compatible with Windows operating systems only. For a detailed list of supported operating systems, go to

www.apc.com, select Software & Firmware.

For Mac operating systems, we recommend using the native shutdown application (within System Preferences) which

recognizes your battery backup and allows you to configure shutdown of your system during power outages. To access this

application, connect a USB cable from the Back-UPS

DATA PORT (POWERCHUTE PORT) to a USB port on your computer, and

see the documentation provided with your computer.
