UPS Location Warnings
• Install your UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or direct sunlight.
• For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between 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. Your warranty will be
voided if anything other than Tripp Lite surge suppressors 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.
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
• Except for battery replacement, your UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not
open your UPS for any reason. There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Because batteries present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current,
qualified service personnel should observe proper precautions: 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.
• During hot-swap battery replacement, the UPS will not provide backup power in the
event of a blackout or other power interruptions.
• Do not operate UPS without batteries.
• Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. The UPS batteries are recyclable. Refer to local
codes for disposal requirements.
• When adding external battery packs to select models with external battery pack connectors,
connect only Tripp Lite-recommended battery packs of the correct voltage and type. Do
not connect or disconnect battery packs when the UPS is operating on battery power.

Quick Installation
Unplug the computer’s power
cord from both AC outlet and
the computer’s AC input.
Insert the female plug of the
computer’s cord into the UPS’s AC
input. Insert the male plug of the
computer’s cord into AC outlet.*
NOTE! After you plug the UPS into a live AC outlet, the UPS will
turn ON automatically. See “ON/OFF” Button description in the
Basic Operation section if you want to place the UPS in any mode
other than ON.
* See Specifications for circuit amperage requirements.
Using one of the jumper cords
supplied with the UPS, insert
the cord’s female plug into
computer’s AC input . Insert
the cord’s male plug into any of
UPS’s female output receptacles.
Plug additional equipment into
the UPS.*
Use one of the additional jumper cords supplied with
the UPS, or order additional jumper cords from
Tripp Lite. Call [phone]; 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.

These connections are optional. Your UPS will function properly without these connections.
Phone Line or Phone/Network
Line Surge Suppression
(Select models only)
Your UPS has jacks which protect against
surges on a phone line. Using telephone 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.
USB Communications
Use any USB cable to connect the USB port of
your computer to the USB port of your UPS.
Download the PowerAlert UPS monitoring
software program appropriate for your operat-
ing system from www.tripplite.com and install
it on your computer.
External Battery Connection
(Select models only)
All UPS models come with a robust internal
battery system; select models feature connectors
that accept an optional external battery pack
(sold separately from Tripp Lite*) to provide
additional runtime. Adding an external battery
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
pack when the UPS is running on battery power.
*See Specifications section for battery pack available for
your specific UPS model.

“ON/OFF” Button
• To turn the UPS ON: if utility power is present, the UPS will turn
ON automatically. If utility power is absent, you can “cold-start” the
UPS (i.e.: turn it ON and supply power from its batteries*) by pressing
and holding the ON/OFF button for one second.**
• To turn the UPS OFF: first, unplug the UPS from the wall outlet;
then press and hold the ON/OFF button for one second.** The UPS
will be completely “OFF” (deactivated).
• To place the UPS in “Charge-Only” Mode: this mode enables bat-
tery charging, but disables battery backup. WARNING: when the UPS
is in this mode, it will not provide battery backup during a blackout
or brownout. This mode is only recommended for use in areas that
experience frequent blackout/brownout conditions and when connected
equipment is not in use. Press and hold the ON/OFF button for four
seconds to place the UPS in this mode.** Press and hold the ON/OFF
button for one second** to take the UPS out of this mode.
*If fully charged. **The alarm will beep once briefly after the indicated interval has passed (with
the exception of a continuous beep which signals transition to the “Charge-Only” Mode).
“MUTE/TEST” Button
To Silence (or “Mute”) UPS Alarms: briefly press and release the
MUTE/TEST button. Note: continuous alarms (warning you to imme-
diately shut down connected equipment) cannot be silenced.
To Run a Self-Test: with your UPS plugged in and turned ON, press
and hold the MUTE/TEST button for two seconds. Continue holding
the button until the alarm beeps several times and the UPS performs
a self-test. See “Results of a Self-Test” below. Note: you can leave
connected equipment on during a self-test. Your UPS, however, will
not perform a self-test if you have placed it in “Charge-Only” mode
(see “ON/OFF” Button description).
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.
Results of a Self-Test: The test will last approximately 10 seconds
as the UPS switches to battery to test its load capacity and
charge. All LEDs will be lit and the UPS alarm will sound.
• If the “OVERLOAD” LED remains lit and the alarm continues to
sound after the test, the battery-supported outlets are overloaded.
To clear the overload, unplug some of your equipment from the bat-
tery- supported outlets and run the self-test repeatedly until the “OVER-
LOAD” LED is no longer lit and the alarm is no longer sounding.
CAUTION! Any overload that is not corrected by the user
immediately following a self-test may cause the UPS to shut
down and cease supplying output power in the event of a
blackout or brownout.
• If the “REPLACE BATTERY” LED remains lit and the alarm
continues to sound after the test, the UPS batteries need to be
recharged or replaced. Allow the UPS to recharge continuously
for 2-4 hours, and repeat the self-test. If the LED continues to
flash, contact Tripp Lite for service. If your UPS requires battery
replacement, visit www.tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm
to locate the specific Tripp Lite replacement battery for your UPS.

All Indicator Light descriptions apply when the UPS is plugged into an AC outlet and turned on.
“LINE POWER” LED: this green LED lights continuously to indicate
that the UPS is ON and supplying your equipment with AC power from a
utility source. The LED flashes to remind you that you have used the
ON/OFF button to place the UPS in “Charge-Only” mode.
“BATTERY POWER” LED: this yellow LED flashes and an alarm
sounds (4 short beeps followed by a pause) to indicate the UPS is operating
from its internal batteries. During a prolonged brownout or blackout, this
LED and the “REPLACE BATTERY” LED will light continuously and an
alarm will sound continuously to indicate the UPS's batteries are nearly out
of power; you should save files and shut down your equipment immediately.
“REPLACE BATTERY” LED: this red LED lights continuously and an
alarm sounds after a self-test to indicate the UPS batteries need to be
recharged or replaced. Allow the UPS to recharge continuously for at least
4 hours, and repeat the self-test. If the LED continues to flash, contact Tripp Lite
for service. If your UPS requires battery replacement, visit
www.tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate the specific Tripp Lite
replacement battery for your UPS.
“OVERLOAD” LED: this red LED lights continuously and an alarm
sounds after a self-test to indicate the battery-supported outlets are overloaded.
To clear the overload, unplug some of your equipment from the battery-
supported outlets and run the self-test repeatedly until the LED is no longer
lit and the alarm is no longer sounding.
CAUTION! Any overload that is not corrected by the user immediately
following a self-test may cause the UPS to shut down and cease supplying
output power in the event of a blackout or brownout.
“VOLTAGE CORRECTION” LED (select models only): Lights green
whenever your UPS is automatically correcting high or low AC line voltage.
The UPS will also click gently. These are normal, automatic operations of
your UPS, and no action is required on your part.

AC Outlets: the outlets will provide battery backup and surge protection;
plug your computer, monitor, printer and other critical devices here. Your
UPS is designed to only support computer equipment. You will overload
the UPS if the total VA ratings for all the equipment you connect to the
outlets exceeds the UPS’s output capacity (see Specifications). If you are
unsure if you have overloaded the outlets, run a self-test (see
“MUTE/TEST” Button description).

Telephone/Network Protection Jacks (select models): These jacks
protect your equipment against surges over a telephone or data line.
Your UPS has either jacks which can be used with both phone and
data lines, or jacks which can be used with phone lines only. See
Specifications to determine what kind of jacks your UPS has.
Connecting your equipment to these jacks is optional. Your UPS will
work properly without this connection.
External Battery Pack Connection (select models): Check to
ensure that the external batteries you are connecting match the voltage
listed on your UPS's battery connector. Plug the battery connection
cable (attached to the battery pack) into the UPS’s External Battery
Connector. Since your UPS has internal batteries, external batteries
are only needed to extend runtime. Adding external batteries will
increase recharge time as well as runtime. Make sure that the end of
the cable is fully inserted into the UPS connector. Several small
sparks may result during battery connection; this is normal.
USB Port: The USB port connects your UPS to any USB workstation
or server. Using this port, your UPS can communicate “line-fail” and
“low-battery” status to your computer. Use with Tripp Lite software
and any USB cable to automatically save open files and shut down
equipment during a blackout. Contact Tripp Lite Customer Support or
consult your power protection software manual for more information.
Battery Replacement Door: Battery Replacement Door: Under normal
conditions, the original battery in your UPS will last several years. Battery
replacement should be performed only by qualified service personnel.
Refer to “Battery Warnings” in the Safety section. Should your UPS
require battery replacement, visit Tripp Lite on the Web at
www.tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate the specific
replacement battery for your UPS.
Power Sensitivity Adjustment: This dial is normally set fully counter-
clockwise, which enables the UPS to provide maximum protection
against waveform distortions in its AC input. When such distortion
occurs, the UPS will normally switch to providing PWM sine wave
power from its battery reserves for as long as the distortion is pres-
ent. In areas with poor utility power or where the UPS’s input power
comes from a backup generator, chronic waveform distortion could
cause the UPS to switch to battery too frequently, draining its battery
reserves. You may be able to reduce how often your UPS switches to
battery due to moderate waveform distortion by experimenting with
different settings for this dial. As the dial is turned clockwise, the
UPS becomes more tolerant of variations in its input power’s AC wave-
form. NOTE: The further the dial is adjusted clockwise, the greater
the degree of waveform distortion the UPS will allow to pass to con-
nected equipment. When experimenting with different settings for
this dial, operate connected equipment in a safe test mode so that the
effect on the equipment of any waveform distortions in the UPS’s
output can be evaluated without disrupting critical operations.

Storage
All connected equipment should be turned off, then disconnected from the UPS to avoid battery
drain. Unplug the UPS from the wall outlet; then press and hold the ON/OFF button for one second.
The UPS will be completely “OFF” (deactivated). Your UPS is now ready for storage. If you
plan on storing your UPS for an extended period of time, fully recharge the UPS batteries once
every three months by plugging the UPS into a live AC outlet and letting the UPS charge for up
to 4 hours. If you leave your UPS batteries discharged for an extended period of time, they will
suffer a permanent loss of capacity.
Service
Before returning your UPS for service, follow these steps:
1. Review the installation and operation instructions in this manual to ensure that the service
problem does not originate from a misreading of the instructions. Also, check that the UPS
System’s circuit breaker(s) are not tripped. This is the most common cause of service
inquiries which can be easily remedied by following the resetting instructions in this manual.
2. If the problem continues, do not contact or return the UPS to the dealer. Instead, call Tripp Lite
at [phone]. A service technician will ask for the UPS's model number, serial number
and purchase date and will attempt to correct the problem over the phone.
3. If the problem requires service, the technician will issue you a Returned Material
Authorization (RMA) number, which is required for service. If you require packaging, the
technician can arrange to send you proper packaging. Securely pack the UPS to avoid damage
during shipping. Do not use Styrofoam beads for packaging. Any damages (direct, indirect,
special, incidental or consequential) to the UPS incurred during shipment to Tripp Lite or
an authorized Tripp Lite service center is not covered under warranty. UPS Systems shipped
to Tripp Lite or an authorized Tripp Lite service center must have transportation charges
prepaid. Mark the RMA number on the outside of the package. If the UPS System is within
the 2-year warranty period, enclose a copy of your sales receipt. Return the UPS for service
using an insured carrier to the address given to you by the Tripp Lite service technician.
