^ There's a manual included along with it. Read it for installation procedure.
Its available online too. APC Back-UPS 1100, 230V, IEC320, without auto shutdown software
The black wire (negative) is already connected in your photo. Only the positive wire (red) is not connected.
Connect the red wire to the red socket (which is left unconnected) in 13'26 numbered battery by pushing it in. Its like molex plug. it will spark a bit while connecting, so don't be alarmed. Then slide both the batteries in and shut the compartment door. Keep it for charging for 10-12 hours. Then you can use it.
Try not to fully discharge the batteries. Always shutdown the system promptly if batteries go below 50 percent to get good life out of them.Thanks it worked. I have connected it and also connected my Monitor and CPU switch behind the UPS and it started working. Bro is there anything that I need to take care of for this UPS then do let me know. You may help me out with some pointers as this is my first time I am using UPS.
I'm not sure what you're asking. What switch? The batteries will be used only in case of a powercut or in times of overvoltage/ undervoltage. They are not in use always. Once the batteries are fully charged, the ups will trickle charge it to maintain that state. Plus the ups will also discharge it a bit during ups startup to test the condition of batteries.I just want to ask one more thing since I have connected the UPS, do I have to keep this switch on always as soon as I start the switch button, Wont the battery get dried up soon since its gets charged everytime.

ok, i got it. you need not keep the main switch on always. if you use the ups in case of powercuts then you need to keep the main switch on till the batteries are fully charged. example - if there was no powercut during your use of the pc, then you can switch off the mains too. If there was a powercut for 10mins, then the battery would have lost around 20percent of their capacity and to charge them, you can switch off the ups front button, but need to keep the main switch to the ups always on till it charges fully. This can take anywhere between 1hr -3hrs depending on the charge lost.
Since your ups model does not support pc monitoring, you should as a safety, shutdown the pc after 15mins of prolonged power failure. This would be somewhere near the 40 percent battery usage i assume.
