Getting started with your CertaUPS

 

CertaUPS provide uninterruptable power supply systems, a backup power solution that has been designed to keep your network online in case of a power outage emergency.

Sitting between your infrastructure devices and the power feed to your office, server or home network, they act as a power regulator. When you lose the power feed, your UPS will keep the devices connected either online, or carefully power them down to stop corruption.

Even the top of the range technology is still affected without power, using a CertaUPS system will protect your network.

Setting up your device

We wanted to show you just how easy it is to set up your own UPS device, that can be used to power a single person’s desktop through to an entire company’s servers and system.

Alex Claro, our Solution’s Architect has filmed the set-up guides for how you can get your UPS up and running.

After you have installed your UPS device onto your desktop, you can set up your Winpower Monitor, where you choose your initial settings for your device. Once set up, the Winpower Monitor will give you a detailed overview of your UPS, including the current run time, load and voltage.
