2.1 Mounting the Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS)
Important: The ATS should be installed onto the rack rails in the lowest U space available
(height < 36 in./1 m).
Mount your equipment in a 4-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.
Note: Each snap-in slide rail assembly consists of a sliding rack enclosure mounting bracket and an inner
channel rail. For ease of installation, the inner channel rails come pre-attached to the ATS unit.
2. Installation
1Align the rear bracket’s tabs with the rack
enclosure’s square mounting holes and
push the metal hooks through the
mounting holes 1A. Then push the rear
bracket toward the enclosure support for
the blue tabs snap the mount into place
1B. Then align the front bracket’s tabs
with the rack enclosure’s front square
mounting holes. Push the front bracket’s
metal hooks through the mounting holes
and push the front bracket toward the
enclosure support for the blue tabs to
snap the mount into place. Make sure
to install the mounting bracket into
the lowest U space.
2Repeat step one for the second mounting
bracket on the opposite side of the rack
enclosure.
3Once both mounting brackets are fixed
onto the rack enclosure, secure the rear
brackets using the included M5X10L
screws.
4Align the inner channel rails attached to
the ATS with the mounting brackets. Then
slide the unit into the rail assembly. Using
a screwdriver, secure the ATS’s panel-
mounted thumb screws to the rack
enclosure.

2.2 Mounting the Power Strip
Note: Mounting buttons come pre-installed to the
Power Strip for toolless mounting. A second set of
button mounting holes on the power strip allow
alternate positioning in the rack.
Position the Power Strip as desired within the
rack enclosure, align the buttons with the rack
mounting slots and slide the Power Strip
downward into position.
Your model may differ slightly from image.
2. Installation
2.3 Connecting the Power Strip to the ATS
The power strip has a 7 conductor cord with an
8-position plug. The plug installs directly to the
ATS mating receptacle on the back of the unit.

2. Installation
2.4 Connecting the ATS
2.4.1 Connect ATS Input Plugs
Note: The ATS comes equipped with two 3-Phase AC
power inputs: Source A and Source B. Source A is
the default preferred (primary) source. See
Navigating Config Menus and Submenus section
for instructions on changing the preferred source. The
connection instructions below assume Source A is the
preferred source.
Connect the Source A input plug Ato a
preferred 3-Phase AC power source. Under
normal operating conditions, the ATS will
distribute AC power from the Source A input
source. Connect the Source B input plug Bto
an alternative source of grounded AC power.
Do not plug the Source B input into the same
power source as the Source A input. The ATS
will distribute AC power from the Source B
input only if the Source A input becomes
unavailable or unstable.
2.4.2 Connect Equipment
to Power Strip
Do not exceed the load rating of the power
strip. The total electrical current used by each
phase of the power strip will be displayed in
amperes on the digital meter.
2.5 Networking the ATS
Your ATS can receive its IP address assignment via DHCP server (dynamic) or static (manual)
addressing methods. If you are uncertain which method to use, contact your network administrator
for assistance before continuing the configuration process.
Note: The MAC address (12-digit string in this format: 000667xxxxxx) is printed on a label and attached to the ATS
enclosure. For static IP address assignment, use the DB9 configuration cable (730866) included with the ATS.
The ATS provides remote monitoring and more via Web browser, telnet and SNMP-based Network
Management Systems. For more information about configuration and operation of the ATS via the
PowerAlert Web browser interface, refer to the SNMPWEBCARD User's Guide by going to
www.tripplite.com/support and typing SNMPWEBCARD into the search field.

6. Configuration and Operation
6.1 Automatic Transfer Switch
When the Source A and Source B inputs are both connected to power sources, the ATS operates
as an Automatic Transfer Switch, providing redundant input power for high availability applications.
The ATS will distribute power from the preferred input source under normal operating conditions
and switch to the other input source under abnormal conditions. The default preferred source is
Source A (Refer to the Navigating Config Menus and Submenus section for instructions on
changing the preferred source). The ATS will switch to the preferred source whenever it is “Good”
according to the ATS input voltage definitions (see section 6.1.2).
6.1.1 Preferred Configuration
The Automatic Transfer Switch function provides increased availability when the Source A and
Source B inputs of the ATS are connected to separate power sources. For maximum availability, it
is recommended, when using UPS Systems, that the UPS systems are matching with pure sine
wave output for the Source A and Source B input power sources. The automatic transfer switch
function will be compromised if the Source A and Source B inputs are connected to the same
utility power source.
