Problems Connecting FT1200 System and
Monitor to APC 420 UPS
We have recently been made aware of a number of
occasions where both the FT1200 and accompanying monitor have been connected to
APC 420 UPS units, with the result that the UPS has apparently failed when the
monitor was powered up.
Mitsubishi Electric PC Division does not recommend this
combination of FT1200 system unit and monitor, as it exceeds the rating for the APC 420.
The overload surge created by switching on the monitor, can subsequently cause the UPS to
fail. The APC 420 is rated to support the system unit ONLY, and the monitor must
therefore be connected to an independent mains source.
