This manual contains important instructions and warnings that should be
followed during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite UPS
Systems.
UPS Location Warnings
• Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or
direct sunlight.
• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between between
32º F and 104º F (0º C and 40º C).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
UPS Connection Warnings
• Connect your UPS to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not
modify the UPS's plug. Do not use adapters that eliminate the UPS's
ground line.
• Do not plug your UPS into itself; this will damage the UPS and void
your warranty.
• If you are connecting your UPS to a motor-powered AC generator, the
generator must provide clean, filtered computer-grade output.
Equipment Connection Warnings
• Do not use Tripp Lite UPS Systems for life support appliances in which
a malfunction of failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System could cause failure
or significantly alter the performance of a life-support device.
• Do not connect surge suppressors to the output of your UPS. This may
damage your UPS and will void both the surge suppressor and UPS
warranties.
Battery Warnings
• Your UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your UPS
for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Battery replacement must be performed by qualified service personnel.
Because the batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burn from
high short-circuit current, observe proper precautions. Unplug and turn
off the UPS before performing battery replacement. Use tools with
insulated handles, and replace the existing batteries with the same
number and type of new batteries (Sealed Lead-Acid). Do not open the
batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object.
• The UPS batteries are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal
requirements, or in the USA only call 1-800-SAV-LEAD for recycling
information. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire.
• Do not attempt to add external batteries.

Quick Installation
Plug your UPS into an
1
electrical outlet.
Plug your computer, monitor
2
and external modem into
battery-supported outlets.
Plug other equipment into
surge-only outlet(s) .*
*Separate battery-supported/surge and surge-only outlet(s)
are available only on select models (identified on the back of
your UPS). Your UPS is designed to support only computer
equipment. You will overload your UPS if you connect
household appliances, laser printers or surge suppressors to
battery-supported outlets.
Set your UPS’s “OFF – ON”
Switch.**
3
USA, Canada & Western Europe
· Set it and leave it “ON” at all times.
All Other Countries
· Set to “OFF” when you are not using connected
equipment.
(WARNING! When set to “OFF,” UPS will not provide battery
backup during a blackout or brownout)
· Set to “ON” when you are using connected
equipment.
**See Basic Operation section for the Switch Function, UPS
Conditions and Setting Advantages.
–Optional Installation–
(Select models)
OPTION 1 (Phone-Line Surge Suppression)
Using telephone cords, connect your wall jack to the
UPS jack marked “LINE” (or “IN”). Connect your
equipment to the UPS jack marked “EQUIP” (or “OUT”).
OPTION 2 (UPS Software)
Using Tripp Lite cable (if supplied), connect the DB9
port of your computer to the DB9 port of your UPS.
Load software (if supplied) and run installation
program appropriate for your operating system.
†Phone line and DB9 port connections are optional. Your UPS
will function properly without these connections. Make sure
the equipment you connect to the UPS’s telephone jacks is also
protected against surges on the AC line. Select models protect
TWO lines on one cable simultaneously (see specifications.) If
you have one of these models and want to protect two lines
that do NOT travel through one cable, you must use "Y"
splitters appropriate to your application to adapt them to your
UPS's phone jacks.

recommendations in Step 3 of the Quick Installation section.
"ON" Position
Function: ENABLES battery backup. UPS Conditions: The UPS
battery is charging. Power is ON at the UPS receptacles. The " "
indicator light is illuminated. Setting Advantages: Provides
battery backup during blackouts or brownouts.
"OFF" Position
Function: DISABLES battery backup. UPS Conditions: The UPS
battery is charging. Power is ON at the UPS receptacles. The " "
indicator light is illuminated. The " " indicator light is flashing.
Setting Advantages: Continues to charge the battery when
power is present while turning OFF the inverter to prevent battery
backup operation when equipment is not in use.
Use this momentary switch to do three things:
Silence the UPS alarm*
Move this switch to the left and release it. Note: When the battery
is nearly depleted the alarm resumes (and cannot be silenced) to
alert you to immediately shut down connected equipment.
*The UPS alarm consists of a series of short beeps followed by a brief pause. The alarm is activated when
the UPS switches to battery during a blackout or brownout.
Test your UPS's battery charge**
Leave your connected equipment ON. With your UPS plugged in
and turned ON, move this switch to the left; hold it there for 2
seconds and release it. The UPS will momentarily switch to
battery to test its charge. If the UPS alarm sounds or the properlysized load is not supported, let your UPS charge its batteries for
12 hours and repeat the test. If alarm still sounds, contact Tripp
Lite for service. CAUTION: Do not unplug your UPS to test its
batteries. This will remove safe electrical grounding and may
introduce a damaging surge into your network connections.
**If your model is not equipped with this switch, you can still test your UPS batteries. First plug your UPS
into a grounded surge suppressor (which will maintain the ground connection), then turn the surge
suppressor's power switch OFF.
Cold-Start your UPS
If your UPS is equipped with a MUTE/TEST switch, you may “cold
start” it and use it as a stand-alone power source when utility
power is not present, providing that the UPS's battery is charged.
To “cold start” your UPS, first turn the "OFF/ON" switch ON.
Then, move the MUTE/TEST switch to the left, hold momentarily
and release when the " " indicator light begins to flash.

Indicator Lights
All Indicator Light descriptions apply when the UPS is plugged into a wall outlet and turned on.
This green light will turn ON whenever your UPS is plugged in and
receiving normal AC line power.
This red light will turn ON when your UPS is providing your equipment
with battery power.
This yellow light will turn ON continuously after you test your UPS
battery’s charge with the “Mute/Test” Switch to indicate that the UPS’s

battery is less than fully charged. If it stays on continuously, contact
Tripp Lite for service. The light will flash after you set the “OFF/ON”
Switch to the “OFF” position to indicate that the UPS will not provide
battery backup during a blackout or brownout.
Whenever your UPS is automatically correcting high or low AC line
voltage, this green light will turn ON and the UPS will gently click. The
more the UPS has to correct voltage, the more the green light will turn

ON and the more the UPS will click. These are both normal, automatic
operations of your UPS, and no action is required on your part.
This red light will turn ON when the UPS’s capacity has been exceeded
while it is operating from battery power (either during a self-test or
during a blackout). Remove overload from battery-supported outlets

immediately.
Other UPS Features
AC Receptacles
The receptacles provide your connected equipment with AC line
power during normal operation and battery power during blackouts and brownouts. They also protect your equipment against
damaging surges and line noise. Select models, however,
feature “surge-only” receptacle(s) (identified on the back of the
UPS) that provide peripherals with surge protection without
committing precious battery power to support them during
blackouts.
RJ11 Telephone Jacks (Available on select models)
These jacks protect your equipment against telephone line
surges. Connecting your equipment to these jacks is optional.
Your UPS will still work properly without this connection.
DB9 Port (Available on select models)
The DB9 port connects your UPS to any workstation or server.
Use with Tripp Lite software and cabling to automatically save
open files and shut down equipment during a blackout. This port
sends contact-closure signals to indicate line-fail and lowbattery status. Contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for more
information.
Battery Replacement Door
Under normal conditions, the original battery in your UPS will
last several years. Battery replacement should be performed
only by qualified service personnel. Refer to “Battery Warnings” in
the Safety section on page 2.

Storage & Service
Storage
First turn your UPS OFF and disconnect its power cord from the wall outlet.
Then disconnect all equipment to avoid battery drain. If you plan on storing your
UPS for an extended period of time, fully recharge the UPS batteries once every
three months by plugging the UPS into a live AC outlet and letting the UPS
charge for 4 to 6 hours. If you leave your UPS batteries discharged for an
extended period of time, they will suffer a permanent loss of capacity.
Service
If returning your UPS for service, contact your local Tripp Lite dealer or
distributor. They will refer you to a service center. Please carefully pack the UPS
using the ORIGINAL PACKING MATERIAL that came with the unit. Enclose a
letter describing the symptoms of the problem. If the UPS is within the
warranty period, enclose a copy of your sales receipt.
