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.
• Do not install the UPS near magnetic storage media, as this may result in data corruption.
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. Your warranty will be
voided if anything is used to connect your UPS to an 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 applications 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.
• Do not connect surge suppressors or extension cords to the output of your UPS.
Battery Warnings
• Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current.
Observe proper precautions. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. Do not open the
UPS or batteries. Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object. Unplug
and turn off the UPS before performing battery replacement. Use tools with insulated
handles. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the UPS. Battery replacement should
be performed only by authorized service personnel using the same number and type of
batteries (sealed Lead-Acid). The batteries are recyclable. Refer to your 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. 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 to locate the specific replacement battery for your UPS.
• If your UPS model is equipped with an external battery connector, only connect Tripp Lite
battery packs of the appropriate type and correct voltage. Do not connect or disconnect
external batteries while the UPS is operating from battery.

Quick Installation
Insert a user-supplied power
cord (with country-specific plug)
into the UPS System’s IEC-320-C20
AC Input Receptacle. Plug the
cord into an AC wall outlet.
NOTE! After you plug the UPS into a live AC outlet, the UPS (in
“Standby” mode) will automatically charge its batteries, but will
not supply power to its outlets until it is turned ON.
Using the jumper cords supplied
with the UPS, plug your equipment
into the UPS.*
* Order additional jumper cords from Tripp Lite. Call (773) 869-1234;
order part # P004-006. Your UPS is designed to support only computer equipment. You will overload the UPS if the total VA ratings for
all the equipment you connect exceeds the UPS's Output Capacity
(see Specifications). To find your equipment's VA ratings, look on
their nameplates. If the equipment is listed in amps, multiply the
number of amps by 230 to determine VA. (Example: 1 amp × 230 =
230 VA). If you are unsure if you have overloaded the UPS’s outlets, see
“OUTPUT LOAD LEVEL” LED description.
Turn the UPS ON.
Press and hold the “ON/OFF/STANDBY” button for
one second. The alarm will beep once after one second
has passed. Release the button.

These connections are optional. Your UPS will function properly without these connections.
USB Communications
Use the included USB cable to connect the USB
port of your computer to the USB port of your
UPS. Install on your computer the Tripp Lite
PowerAlert Software appropriate to your computer’s
operating system. Your UPS may feature additional
communications ports; these ports may also be
connected to additional computers which have
PowerAlert Software installed. Consult your
PowerAlert manual for more information.
RS-232 Serial Communications
If your computer is equipped with a DB9 serial
port, use the included serial cable to connect the
DB9 port of your computer to the DB9 port of
your UPS. Install on your computer the Tripp Lite
PowerAlert Software appropriate to your computer’s
operating system. Your UPS may feature additional
communications ports; these ports may also be
connected to additional computers which have
PowerAlert Software installed. Consult your
PowerAlert manual for more information.
External Battery Connection
(select models)
Your UPS comes with a robust internal battery
system; external batteries are only needed to
extend runtime. Adding external batteries will
increase recharge time as well as runtime.
The illustration (see ) shows the location of your
UPS’s External Battery Connector, where you will
insert the battery pack cable. Complete installation
instructions for your battery pack appear in the battery
pack’s owner’s manual. Make sure that 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.
If you connect any
external batteries, set the
Battery Charge Level Switch (see ) to the up
position. This will increase your UPS’s charger
output so the additional batteries charge faster.
Note: the switch to the right of the Battery Charge
Level Switch is inactive and will not affect UPS
operation regardless of its position.
CAUTION! DO NOT set the Battery Charge Level Switch to the up position without an external battery connected. There is a risk of damaging the UPS’s internal battery system.
