Important Safety Instructions

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 may affect 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 0º C and 40º C.

• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.

• Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle). Mounting in this manner will seriously inhibit the unit’s internal cooling, eventually causing product damage not covered under warranty.

Important Safety Instructions

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 other than Tripp Lite surge

protectors are 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.

• The mains socket outlet that supplies the UPS should be near the UPS and be easily accessible.

• To remove AC voltage from the UPS, pull the plug from the socket outlet.

Equipment Connection Warnings

• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of

the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended.

• Do not connect surge protectors or extension cords to the output of your UPS. This might damage the UPS and may affect the surge

protector and UPS warranties.

• Connect the UPS to an outlet that is adequately protected against excess currents, short circuits and earth faults, as part of the

building installation. The outlet protection for the UPS should be in series with the mains input.

• To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit that has branch circuit over current protection with an ampere rating in accordance

with the National Electrical Code® (NEC®), ANSI/NFPA 70 or your local electrical code. In Europe, the circuit breaker must meet the IEC/EN 60934 standard and have a contact air gap of at least 3 mm. The recommended circuit breaker rating for building installation is 240V/20A and must meet the rated short circuit capacity of at least 1 KA.

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 visit tripplite.com/ UPSbatteryrecycling 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 tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate the specific replacement battery for your UPS.

Installation

Rack Mounting

Mount your equipment in either a 4-post or 2-post rack or rack enclosure. The user must determine the fitness of hardware and procedures before mounting. If hardware and procedures are not suitable for your application, contact the manufacturer of your rack or rack enclosure. The procedures described in this manual are for common rack and rack enclosure types and may not be appropriate for all applications.

4-Post Mounting

The included plastic pegs A will temporarily support the empty

rackmount shelves B while you install the permanent mounting hardware. Insert a peg into the third hole from the top on the front end of each bracket. On the rear end, insert a peg into the center hole. (Each front bracket has 6 holes and each rear bracket has 5 holes.) The pegs will snap into place.

After installing the pegs, expand each shelf to match the depth

of your rack rails. The pegs will fit through the square holes in the rack rails to support the shelves. Refer to the rack unit labels to confirm that the shelves are level in all directions.

Note: The support ledge of each shelf must face inward.

Remove the pegs at the front end of each bracket. Secure the

shelves B to the mounting rails permanently using the included screws and cup washers C as shown. Place 2 screws at the front of each rail (4 total) and 2 screws at the back of each rail (4 total). Tighten all screws before proceeding.

Note: The rear pegs can be left in for installation, but the front ones must be

removed before the bracket is secured by screws.

WARNING! Do not attempt to install your UPS until you have inserted and tightened the required screws. The plastic pegs will not support the weight of your UPS.

Attach your UPS’s mounting brackets D to the forward

mounting holes E of the UPS using the included hardware F. The mounting bracket “ears” should face forward.

With the aid of an assistant (if necessary), lift your UPS and

slide it into the shelves. Attach the UPS mounting brackets to the forward mounting rails with user-supplied screws and washers G. Tighten all screws securely.

2-Post Mounting

If you mount 2U UPS models in 2-post racks, they require the addition of a Tripp Lite 2-Post Rackmount Installation Kit (model: 2POSTRMKITWM, sold separately). See Installation Kit owner’s manual for installation procedure.

Power Strategy Selection Options

Tripp Lite SmartOnline LCD UPS systems offer several built-in power strategy options that enable the UPS to optimize performance to meet user needs for MAXIMUM POWER QUALITY, MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY, and FREQUENCY REGULATION or FREQUENCY CONVERSION operation. An additional AUTO-ADAPTIVE power strategy combines the benefits of high-efficiency and maximum power quality. Each power strategy option enables the UPS to automatically shift between specific operating modes as power and UPS status dictates. Available power strategy options include:

• Auto-Adaptive Power Strategy enables the UPS to automatically switch between ONLINE MODE and ECONOMY MODE as dictated by

the quality and reliability of UPS input power. If the UPS does not experience a power failure in a week’s time (not including UPS selftest) the UPS will automatically switch to ECONOMY MODE. If a power failure occurs, the UPS will maintain output in BATTERY MODE. When power is restored, the UPS will repeat the cycle by running in ONLINE MODE until there are no power failures for one week’s time.

• Max-Efficiency Power Strategy enables the UPS to run continuously in ECONOMY MODE anytime incoming AC power is within the

configured bypass low/high voltage range. If UPS input voltage is outside the configured bypass range, the UPS will automatically switch to ONLINE MODE until AC input voltage is restored within the configured bypass voltage range. This is similar to Auto-Adaptive Power Strategy, except transfer to ECONOMY MODE is immediate as voltage levels recover. There is no one-week time period of power failure free operation required in order for the UPS to return to ECONOMY MODE operation.

• Max-Quality Power Strategy enables the UPS to run continuously in ONLINE MODE the entire time incoming AC power is within the

range for online mode operation. The UPS will remain operating continuously in Online Double-Conversion mode, providing the highest quality output power with zero transfer time. Auto-bypass mode is available during UPS failure modes when AC input is within the bypass range.

• Frequency Regulation Power Strategy is similar to Max-Quality Power Strategy, except the UPS will actively regulate output

frequency within +/-0.05Hz of the 50 or 60Hz nominal frequency measured on startup. The UPS will remain operating continuously in Online Double-Conversion mode, providing the highest quality output power with zero transfer time. Auto-bypass mode is available during UPS failure modes when AC input is within the bypass range.

• Frequency Conversion to 60Hz & Frequency Conversion to 50Hz Power Strategies are similar to Max-Quality power strategy,

except the UPS will actively regulate output within +/-0.05Hz of the 50Hz (Freq. Conv. to 50Hz setting) or 60Hz (Freq. Conv. to 60Hz setting). Auto-bypass is not available in FREQUENCY CONVERSION mode. Typical applications include converting 50 to 60Hz (or 60 to 50Hz) for sensitive electronic devices.

Note: Maximum power supported in Frequency Regulation/Conversion modes is derated by 30%.

UPS Operating Modes

Tripp Lite SmartOnline UPS systems are able to automatically switch between operating modes under conditions specified in the configured Power Strategy. The UPS continuously indicates status using front panel LEDs and the interactive LCD viewing screen.

• Battery Mode is the UPS system’s automatic response to power failures and voltage variations outside of the online voltage range. In

BATTERY MODE, the UPS maintains sine wave AC output power from battery reserves. Once power is restored, the UPS will return to the protected operating mode as dictated by the configured power-strategy and input power conditions.

• Online Mode (also known as ONLINE, DOUBLE CONVERSION MODE) offers the highest level of UPS equipment protection. In ONLINE

MODE, the UPS actively regenerates power from AC to DC, then from DC to AC to provide continuously regulated AC output within 2% of the selected nominal output voltage with zero transfer time as the UPS switches between ONLINE and BATTERY modes.

• Economy Mode offers power saving operation with the highest level of UPS operating efficiency. In ECONOMY MODE, the UPS saves

energy by turning off the online, double-conversion process whenever input power is within the ECONOMY MODE voltage range. If line voltage falls outside of the ECONOMY MODE, the UPS will respond by automatically switching to ONLINE MODE until line voltage recovers.

• Frequency Regulation Mode gives the UPS the ability to correct frequency variations present on UPS input power. See Power Strategy Selection Options section for details.

• Frequency Conversion to 60Hz and Frequency Conversion to 50Hz Modes give the UPS the ability to convert frequency from 50Hz to 60Hz (or 60Hz to 50Hz). See Power Strategy Selection Options section for details.

Note: Maximum power supported in Frequency Regulation/Conversion modes is derated by 30%.

• Bypass Mode offers filtered and unregulated power to connected equipment.

Operations

Power Strategy Operating Features and Supported UPS Operating Modes

The configured UPS Power Strategy provides a framework for UPS operation as it switches between operating modes as dictated by power events and UPS status. Each Power Strategy offers a unique set of operating parameters that the UPS adheres to in order to meet user preferences for high-performance or high efficiency. Additional frequency regulation and conversion options are also available for advanced applications. The chart below lists the UPS operating modes supported for each Power Strategy option.

Enables the UPS to send a low-battery alert as batteries discharge to the selected charge level during a power failure.

Timed shutdown sets the maximum amount of battery runtime in seconds or minutes the UPS will provide during a power failure. Use the DISABLE setting for the longest possible battery runtime.

Low battery shutdown sets the maximum amount of battery discharge before the UPS shuts down due to low battery. The setting of DISABLE allows the batteries to discharge to 0% before shutdown.

The “Beep Delay” setting allows the audible alarm to be delayed up to 120 seconds to prevent the audible-alarm from sounding in response to short duration power failures.

The UPS will communicate shutdown messaging to connected systems prior to UPS shutdown. The setting of INTERRUPT OK will interrupt shutdown messaging if power is restored after shutdown messaging is sent.

The UPS will signal the selected condition by shorting pins 1&5 on the DB9 port.

The UPS will signal the selected condition by shorting pins 8&5 on the DB9 port.

The UPS will perform the selected action when pins 3&9 are shorted on the DB9 port for at least 3.8 seconds.

For the Reboot option (output off for 30 seconds before reboot): Note the pins must be shorted for at least 3.8 seconds to perform the reboot. The reboot happens at exactly 3.8 seconds. If the pins continue to be shorted for more than 3.8 seconds, no further action should be taken. The UPS takes no action on release of the short.

The Power Toggle option is intended to keep the unit powered on whenever the pins are not shorted and powered off whenever the pins are shorted. Note this input cannot power on the unit from an off state unless valid AC is applied (this function will not impose a coldstart). To power on, the pins must be not shorted for at least 3.8 seconds and AC must be valid. To power off, the pins must be shorted for at least 3.8 seconds.

The UPS will perform the selected action if the USB signal from a connected device is lost in line power mode for the duration selected.

The UPS will perform the selected action if the USB signal from a connected device is lost in battery power mode for the duration selected.

This control sets the duration of USB signal loss before the selected line power-mode / battery power-mode action engages.

UPS installed date is automatically set by the unit after 2 hours of continuous operation.

Configuring External Battery Packs

Tripp Lite SmartOnline INT UPS systems support the connection of external battery packs to enable extended-run UPS operation. In order for the UPS to provide efficient charging levels and accurate runtime predictions for optimal network runtime prior to sending autoshutdown messaging, external battery packs need to be configured to the UPS upon installation.

There are 3 methods available to configure external battery packs to the UPS, depending on battery pack selected and quantity added to the UPS. Some battery pack configurations may require the use of more than one configuration method.

EXTERNAL BATTERIES can be

Configuring SMART and NON-SMART BATTERY PACKS via the front panel LCD screen

Adding up to 6 SMART BATTERY PACKS to the UPS

Each SmartOnline UPS has a designated SMART BATTERY PACK, where up to 6 SMART battery packs can be connected to the UPS for fully automatic detection and configuration. SMART battery packs include a wired data connection that connects to the UPS Battery Pack Detection port for automatic recognition and configuration by the UPS.

To configure the UPS for use with up to 6 SMART BATTERY PACKS, just connect the included POWER and DATA cables between the UPS and the first SMART BATTERY PACK. Then connect the POWER and DATA cables for additional SMART BATTERY PACKS to the one ahead of it. The UPS will automatically detect and configure up to 6 SMART BATTERY PACKS to the UPS.

Adding more than 6 SMART BATTERY PACKS to the UPS

SmartOnline UPS systems support automatic detection of up to 6 SMART BATTERY PACKS as described above. It is possible to configure the UPS for more than 6 SMART BATTERY PACKS by configuring all additional SMART PACKS as NON-SMART. When configuring the UPS with more than 6 SMART BATTERY PACKS, configure BPs #1-6 using the BP Detection port method listed above. Then configure SMART BATTERY PACKS #7 and above and any other supported battery pack models to be connected as NON-SMART BATTERY PACKS. See the ADDING NON-SMART Battery Packs section for more information.

Adding BATTERY PACKS to the UPS manually (SMART and NON-SMART battery packs)

If you’re connecting more than the 6 SMART Battery Packs the UPS can automatically detect OR are connecting supported NONSMART Battery Packs to the UPS, you can configure them via the UPS front panel LCD interface. First, install the Battery Pack power connections to the UPS as described in the battery pack documentation. Then, using the SETTINGS / BASIC SETTINGS / BATTERY configuration screens, select the EXTERNAL BATT menu option (see the Front Panel Button Functions and Front Panel LCD Selection and Configuration Options sections under the Operations section for instructions on accessing this section).

Optional Connections

Your UPS will function properly without these connections.

Phone Line or Phone/Network Line Surge Suppression

Your UPS has jacks which protect against surges on a phone

line.* Using appropriate telephone or network cords, connect your wall jack to the UPS jack marked “IN.” Connect your equipment to the UPS jack marked “OUT.” Make sure the equipment you connect to the UPS's jacks is also protected against surges on the AC line.

* Not compatible with PoE (Power Over Ethernet) applications.

Note: Use the same type of connector for the phone line surge suppression input and output ports.

USB and RS-232 Serial Communications

Use the included USB cable (see 2a) and/or RS-232 serial

cable (see 2b) to connect the communication port of 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. Your UPS may feature additional communications ports; these ports may be connected to additional computers that have PowerAlert Software installed. Consult your PowerAlert manual for more information.

RS-232 Dry contact communications are simple, but some knowledge of electronics is necessary to configure them. The RS-232 port’s pin assignments are shown in the diagram. If the UPS battery is low, the UPS sends a signal by bridging pins 8 and 5. If utility power fails, the UPS sends a signal by bridging pins 1 and 5. To shut the UPS down remotely, short pin 3 to pin 9 for at least 3.8 seconds. Additional functions of these pins can be configured through the LCD or via Web management accessory card communication.

Your model may differ.

Optional Connections

EPO Port Connection

This optional feature is only for those applications that require connection to a facility’s Emergency Power Off (EPO) circuit. When the

UPS is connected to this circuit, it enables emergency shutdown of the UPS’s inverter and inhibits transfer to internal bypass. Connect the EPO port of your UPS (see 3a) to a user-supplied normally closed or normally open switch according to the circuit diagram (see 3b).

Note: If a non-latching EPO switch is used, the EPO must be held for a minimum of 1 second. This does not apply to a latching EPO switch.

Optional Connections

External Battery Connection

Check the Model Specific Accessories section under

Overview for compatible battery packs and maximum quantities

for your UPS system. Ensure that your battery pack matches the voltage listed next to your UPS battery connector. Adding external batteries will increase recharge time as well as runtime. See the battery pack owner’s manual for complete installation and setup 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.

IMPORTANT! In order for the runtime-remaining LCD and the software information screens to accurately predict runtime

with external battery packs connected, you must configure any connected packs by following the instructions under the Configuring External Battery Packs section under Operations.

CAUTION: Do not open or mutilate batteries. Released material is harmful to the skin and eyes. It may be toxic. The following

precautions should be observed when working on batteries: Determine if the battery is inadvertently grounded. If inadvertently grounded, remove the source from ground connection. Contact with any part of a grounded battery can result in electrical shock. The likelihood of such a shock can be reduced if grounds are removed during installation and maintenance. (This is applicable to equipment and remote battery supplies that do not have a grounded supply circuit.)
