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, heat, dust and direct sunlight.
• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between 0° C and 40° C
(between 32° F and 104° F).
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
UPS Connection Warnings
• Connect your UPS to a grounded AC power outlet. Do not modify the the UPS's
plug to eliminate its connection to ground. Do not use adaptors that will
eliminate the UPS's connection to ground.
• Do not plug the 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 applications in which a
failure or malfunction of a Tripp Lite UPS System could cause the failure of a
life support device 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 regulations for disposal
requirements. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire.
• Do not attempt to add external batteries unless your UPS is equipped with
External Battery Connectors. Connect only Tripp Lite battery packs with the
correct voltage (see voltage requirements label on the rear of your UPS) and a
connector that matches the color of your UPS’s External Battery Connector.
• Observe proper polarity when connecting replacement batteries. Only connect
Negative (black) wires to Negative (black) terminals. Only connect Positive (red)
wires to Positive (red) terminals.
• During “hot-swap” battery replacement (when the UPS and connected equipment
are turned ON) your UPS will not be able to provide battery backup in the event
of a blackout because the batteries will be momentarily disconnected as they are
exchanged.

(power ON at the UPS receptacles) and “Standby” mode (power OFF at
the UPS receptacles).
Mute/Test Switch
Use this momentary switch to do two things:
Silence the blackout alarm
Engage this switch 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.
Test your UPS’s battery charge
Leave your connected equipment ON. With your UPS plugged in and
completely turned ON, engage this switch; hold it there for 5 seconds
and release it. The UPS will momentarily switch to battery to test its
charge. The “XXX” light will turn ON and the alarm may sound if your
UPS fails a self-test and/or the UPS battery is less than fully charged.
Let the UPS charge for 12 hours and perform a second self-test. If the
light continues to stay on, 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.
Indicator Lights
All Indicator Light descriptions apply when the UPS is plugged into a wall outlet and
turned ON.
This green light will shine constantly to indicate AC power is available
at the receptacles. It will flash to indicate AC power
“System Enable Switch” and “ON/Standby Switch” descriptions above.)
This multi-colored light displays 7 separate UPS battery charge
conditions. It will turn from red (low) to yellow (medium) to green (full)
to show you the level of battery charge. If the light is constant, then your
UPS is operating from line power and the battery is charging. If the light
is flashing, then your UPS is operating from battery power and the
battery is discharging. When the light flashes red, your battery will
soon be depleted; close any files you are working on and shut down
your computer.
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 multi-colored light displays 4 separate UPS load conditions. It
will turn from green (low) to yellow (medium) to red (high) as you
connect equipment to show you the load level your UPS is supporting.
When the light is red your UPS is supporting a load above 85% of its
capacity. If the red light begins flashing, your UPS is severely
overloaded. Remove overload immediately until light stops flashing.
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. You can remotely reboot connected equipment by
turning all of the receptacles OFF and ON at once using Tripp Lite UPS
software. Select models, however, feature unique “Remote Reboot
Outlets” (identified on the back panel of your UPS) which allow you to
use Tripp Lite UPS software to remotely reboot equipment connected
to these outlets without interrupting power to equipment connected to theother outlets.* See software instructions for details.
* Note: constant power is available at the Remote Reboot Outlets (and all other outlets)
unless controlled through Tripp Lite UPS software.
“SMART” RS-232 Port
The RS-232 port connects your UPS to any workstation or server. Use
with Tripp Lite software and #73-0743 cable to monitor and manage
network power and automatically save open files and shut down
equipment during a blackout. This port uses RS-232 communications
to transmit UPS and power conditions (Pin 7 = Transmit; Pin 8 =
Common; Pin 9 = Receive). Contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for
more information and a list of available SNMP, network management
and connectivity products.
“BASIC” Contact-Closure Ports
The contact-closure ports connect your UPS to any workstation or
server. Use with Tripp Lite software and #73-0844 cabling to automatically save open files and shut down equipment during a blackout. This
port sends contact-closure signals to indicate
status. Contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for more information.
LAN Interface DIP Switches (available on select models)
DIP Switches #1 and #2 activate or deactivate remote shutdown
through the “BASIC” Contact-Closure Ports. See “DB9 Port Connection”
on page 4 for which switch controls which port. Note: DIP Switch #3
has no function. DIP Switch #4 serves as the UPS’s “System Enable
Switch.”
External Battery Connector (available on select models)
Use this to connect additional Tripp Lite battery packs for additional
runtime. Refer to the label next to the connector for
appropriate Tripp Lite battery pack to connect. Refer to instructions
available with the battery pack for complete connection information
and safety warnings.

line-fail and low-battery
Battery Replacement Door
Under normal conditions, the original batteries in your UPS will last
several years. Battery replacement should only be performed by
qualified service personnel. Refer to “Battery Warnings” in the Safety
section on page 2. When replacing batteries, qualified service
personnel should follow this procedure: 1) turn UPS OFF; 2) remove
the battery door located on the front panel; 3) pull batteries partially
out of the case; 4) make a detailed sketch of the batteries and the
polarity, color and connection of all cables; 5) disconnect battery
terminals; 6) dispose of used batteries; 7) reconnect replacement
batteries exactly as original batteries were; 8) push batteries back into
case and replace cover.*
* You may not receive full runtime until your replacement batteries have fully charged.
Storage & Service
Storage
Turn your UPS OFF: first, engage the ON/Standby Switch and release it to place your
UPS in the “Standby” mode; then set the System Enable Switch* to “DISABLE”; finally,
disconnect the UPS power cord from the wall outlet. If you plan on storing your UPS
for an extended period of time, recharge the UPS batteries once every three months.
Follow steps #1 and #3 in the Installation section and allow the UPS to charge from
4 to 6 hours. If you leave your UPS batteries discharged for an extended period of time,
they will suffer permanent loss of capacity.
* The location of the switch varies by model. See page 3.
