SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of all Tripp Lite UPS Systems. Failure to heed these warnings will void your warranty.

UPS Location Warnings

• Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, conductive contaminants, dust or direct sunlight.

• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature 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 directly to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug the UPS into itself; this will damage the UPS.

• Do not modify the UPS’s plug, and do not use an adapter that would eliminate the UPS’s ground connection.

• Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet.

• If the UPS receives power from 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 or failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System could cause failure or significantly alter the performance of a life-support device.

Battery Warnings

• Your UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open your UPS for any reason except battery replacement. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.

• 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. Tripp Lite offers a complete line of UPS System Replacement Battery Cartridges (R.B.C.). Visit Tripp Lite on the Web at www.tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate the specific replacement battery for your UPS.

• The UPS batteries are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal requirements, or in the USA only call 1-800-SAV-LEAD or 1-800-8-BATTERY (1-800-8-228-8379) or visit www.rbrc.com for recycling information. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire.

• Unless your UPS system includes an external battery connector, do not attempt to add external batteries.

Quick Installation

Using a small tool, set the Voltage Dip Switch to match your input voltage. (All models are preset to the 120V setting.)

Note: if the Voltage Dip Switch setting does not match your input voltage (if it is set above or below the input voltage), the UPS system will naturally consider the input voltage as a constant overvoltage or undervoltage condition. The UPS system will respond accordingly by automatically adjusting the input voltage to match the Voltage Dip Switch setting. This will cause constant, unnecessary wear on the UPS system.

Plug one end of the detachable line cord into your UPS’s AC Input Receptacle and the other end into an electrical outlet.

Plug the UPS directly into a properly grounded, 3-wire, 15-amp AC outlet that does not share a circuit with a heavy electrical load (such as an air conditioner, refrigerator, etc.).

After plugging your UPS in, check the Site Wiring Fault LED on its rear panel. If it is lit, the outlet is improperly wired; unplug the UPS and have a qualified electrician check the outlet.

Note: Once your UPS is plugged in, it will begin charging its batteries. If this is the first time you have plugged in your UPS, or if your UPS has been in storage for a prolonged period, it will need to charge its batteries for at least 6 hours before it can support connected equipment in the event of a power failure.

Plug your equipment into your UPS.

Your UPS is designed to support computer equipment only. You will overload your UPS if you connect devices with high power demands such as household appliances or laser printers to your UPS’s outlets.

Turn your UPS ON:

• Press the “ON/TEST” Switch

• Hold it for several seconds until you hear a beep

• Release it

Your UPS will begin providing power to its outlets.

Basic Operation

These connections are optional. Your UPS will function properly without these connections.

USB and RS-232 Serial Communications

Use the included USB cable and/or DB9 serial cable to connect the communication

port on your computer to the communication port of your UPS. Install on your computer the Tripp Lite PowerAlert Software appropriate to your computer’s operating system. Consult your PowerAlert manual for more information.

External Battery Connection (select models)

All UPS models come with a robust internal battery system; select models feature connectors that accept optional external battery packs (sold separately from Tripp Lite*) to provide additional runtime. Adding external batteries will increase recharge time as well as runtime. See battery pack owner’s manual for complete installation instructions. Make sure cables are fully inserted into their connectors. Small sparks may result during battery connection; this is normal. Do not connect or disconnect battery packs when the UPS is running on battery power.

* See Specifications section for battery packs available for your specific UPS model.

Front Panel Switches

“ON/TEST” Switch: This switch controls four separate UPS functions:

UPS Power On

To turn power on at the outlets, press the “ON/TEST” switch, hold it for several seconds until you hear a beep, then release it.

UPS Self-Test

When the UPS is in normal operation (the “VOLTAGE OK” LED is on and the “ON BATTERY” LED is off), press the “ON/TEST” switch and hold it until you hear a beep. This initiates a 10-second self-test of the battery. The UPS will shift to battery power (the “ON BATTERY” LED will illuminate) for ten seconds.

Alarm Silence

To silence the UPS “on-battery” alarm, press the “ON/TEST” switch and hold it until you hear a beep.

UPS Cold Start

To use your UPS as a stand-alone power source when AC power is unavailable (i.e. during a blackout), press the “ON/TEST” switch and hold it until you hear a beep. The UPS will then provide battery power to its outlets. The “ON BATTERY” LED will be illuminated since your UPS will be operating from battery power.

“OFF” Switch: This switch turns power off at the outlets. Press this switch, hold it until you hear a beep, then release it. The UPS will continue charging its batteries and the fan will continue to cool internal components even after you turn the UPS receptacles off. To turn the UPS OFF completely, including the charger, disconnect the UPS’s power cord after pressing the “OFF” switch.

Front Panel Indicator Lights

“NORMAL” LED: This green light will be lit when the UPS is providing AC utility power to connected equipment without needing to alter its voltage.

“TRIMMING” LED: This yellow light be lit when the UPS is trimming AC utility power to nominal levels and providing it to connected equipment. The UPS will click faintly when trimming AC power. This is a normal, automatic function of your UPS and no action is required on your part. If your UPS has to trim power frequently, you may be in a poor power area, and should consider obtaining power protection for equipment that is not connected to a UPS.
