for PowerVerter APS and PowerVerter Plus Models

ESPAÑOL: p. 3

The APS/PV Remote allows you to monitor and control at a distance many of the functions of a Tripp Lite PowerVerter Plus or PowerVerter APS model featuring a RJ11 Remote Port.

Installation

Label

For Use with a PowerVerter APS: Affix the label marked "APS Remote" to the front of the Remote so that the holes in the label align with the Remote's LEDs and switch.

For Use with a PowerVerter Plus: Affix the label marked "PV Remote" to the front of the Remote so that the holes in the label align with the Remote's LEDs and switch.

Cable: Insert one end of the 50' Remote Cable into the Remote Port on the front of your PowerVerter. Insert the other end into the RJ11 port on the bottom of the Remote.

Mounting: Using two to four screws appropriate to your mounting surface*, attach the Remote securely so that the LEDs can be clearly seen.

* Screws must be provided by the user.

4. AUTO/CHARGE ONLY Switch (APS Remote)

Move this switch to the AUTO position to have the APS provide connected equipment with AC power (convertedfromDCpowerfromattachedbatteries)intheeventofanACpoweroutage.MoveittotheCHARGE ONLY position when equipment is not in use to conserve battery power by disabling the inverter. In either position, the APS will supply AC power to connected equipment and charge connected batteries while AC input is present.

5. LINE LED (APS Remote)

This green light will turn continuously ON when the APS is receiving AC power input if the APS is set to AUTO/REMOTE and the Remote is set to AUTO. This indicates that the APS will provide power from battery backup if utility power fails. It will flash intermittently when the APS is receiving AC power input if the APS is set to AUTO/REMOTE and the Remote is set to CHARGE ONLY to warn you that the APS WILL NOT provide battery backup during AC power outages.

6. INV LED (APS Remote)

This yellow light will turn continuously ON when connected equipment is receiving battery-supplied AC power (i.e. during a power outage or when the APS is disconnected from AC input).

7. LOAD LED (APS Remote)

This red light will turn continuously ON to warn that the APS’s load is between 80% and 110% of capacity. The light will flash when the APS's inverter shuts down due to a severe overload or overheating. If this happens, turn the APS OFF, remove the overload and let the APS cool before turning it ON again.
