Where do I connect the USB cable from a UPS to a power7 720? I want to

I have the 720 working on the UPS. The UPS is rated at 810W and the

system

powered up thru the UPS. Then it held when I pulled the power cord from

the

wall. Should be no problem, right?

( the UPS is made by CyberPower. purchased at Costco. $90. I had tried an
APC UPS rated at 550W. Did not hold when I powered up the 720. )

thanks,
