LINE POWER LED:
This green light will illuminate whenever the UPS is ON and
receiving normal AC line power.
BATTERY POWER LED:
This yellow light will illuminate when the UPS is providing
equipment with battery power.
REPLACE BATTERY LED:
This red light will illuminate continuously after the UPS runs
a self-test to indicate that the battery is weak. If it remains lit after allowing the UPS to
charge for twelve hours and running a second self-test, contact Tripp Lite for service.
OVERLOAD LED:
This red light will illuminate continuously to indicate that the UPS is
overloaded when the UPS is providing power from battery or after the UPS runs a self-
test. If it lights up, immediately remove some of the equipment connected to the “UPS/
Surge” outlets and run a self-test. Large overloads may cause the UPS to shut down.
Battery Backup Protected/Surge Protected Outlets:
Provide both battery backup
and surge protection. Plug your computer, monitor and other critical equipment into
these outlets.
NOTE
: DO NOT PLUG LASER PRINTERS INTO THESE OUTLETS.
Surge-Only Protected Outlets:
Provide surge and line noise protection, not battery
backup. Plug equipment (such as a printer, scanner or fax machine) that does not
require battery backup during a utility power failure into these outlets.
USB Communication Port:
This port can connect your UPS to any computer for
automatic file saves and unattended shutdown in the event of a power failure. Use
with Tripp Lite’s PowerAlert Software and appropriate USB cable. A USB cable may be
included with your UPS. You can obtain the PowerAlert software FREE via the Web at
www.tripplite.com. Any user-supplied USB cable may then be used to connect your
UPS to your computer.
NOTE
: This connection is optional. The UPS will work properly
without this connection.
Tel/DSL Protection Jacks:
Stop surges on the phone or fax line. A built-in splitter
(one jack in and two jacks out) allows you to simultaneously protect and connect two
devices sharing a single line. Connecting your equipment to these jacks is optional.
Your UPS will work properly without this connection.
Battery Replacement Door (bottom panel, not shown):
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.
