2. External Battery Connector:
Use this to connect one or more Tripp Lite battery modules to the power module. Remove the cover for
access. The power module will not start without a connection to a charged battery module. Refer to the battery module owner’s manual
for connection instructions and safety warnings.

6. RS-232 Communication Port:
This female DB9 serial port may be used to connect your UPS to a workstation or server. It uses RS-232
protocol to communicate with a connected computer. It is used with Tripp Lite software and the included serial cable to monitor and
manage the UPS remotely over a network and to automatically save open files and shut down equipment during a blackout. See
“Optional Connection” for details.

Accept direct plug-in connection of NEMA L6-30P or NEMA L6-20P equipment plugs.
9. AC Output Breakers:
Control output power to the PDU's AC output receptacles.
10. Maintenance Bypass Switch:
Permits qualified service personnel to remove the PDU from the power module for routine maintenance
without disrupting power to the load. When this switch is set to BYPASS the load will receive unfiltered AC utility power and no
battery backup power will be available in the event of a blackout. See the “Manual Bypass Operation” section for detailed manual bypass
procedures.
WARNING! For qualified service personnel only. If the complete bypass procedure (see “Manual Bypass Operation,” p. 10) is
not followed, the UPS will not be adequately powered down, presenting a risk of death or serious injury from contact with high
voltage.
