**Illumina Protein Prep Automation System (IPPAS)**\
An UPS is not provided with the IPPAS. The following specifications apply to the UPS that is recommended for use with the instrument

![](/files/5aAQiOziwCZRlnhktCUI)

**Important notes:**

Illumina recommends that instruments are connected to the UPS, and that the UPS is connected to emergency power in the lab/institution.

* UPSs are not meant to support runs for long periods of time - they are only meant to get the instrument over the initial outage before emergency power is connected (so only for a manner of minutes at most).
* Use one UPS per instrument (do not plug in multiple instruments into one UPS) - multiple instruments/computers on a single UPS can cause spontaneous power failures.

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://knowledge.illumina.com/instrumentation/general/instrumentation-general-reference_material-list/000005838.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
