Basic Operation
Other UPS Features (Rear Panel)
AC Outlets:
All models include NEMA 5-15R outlets. These outlets provide your
connected equipment with AC line power during normal operation and battery
power during blackouts and brownouts. The UPS protects equipment connected
to these outlets against damaging surges and line noise. If you have a serial or
USB connection to your UPS, you can remotely reboot connected equipment by
turning the outlets OFF and ON using Tripp Lite’s PowerAlert Software. The
outlets are divided into one or more load banks (labelled “LOAD 1,” etc.) which
may be remotely switched OFF and ON without interrupting power to equipment
connected to the other outlets. Outlets labelled “UNSWITCHED” may not be
remotely switched off.
Communications Ports (USB or RS-232):
These ports connect your UPS to
any workstation or server. Use with Tripp Lite’s PowerAlert Software and included
cables to enable your computer to automatically save open files and shut down
equipment during a blackout. Also use PowerAlert Software to monitor a wide
variety of AC line power and UPS operating conditions. Consult your PowerAlert
Software manual or contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for more information.
See “USB and RS-232 Serial Communications” in the “Optional Installation”
section for installation instructions.
EPO (Emergency Power Off) Port:
Your UPS features a EPO port that may be
used to connect the UPS to a contact closure switch to enable emergency
inverter shutdown. See Optional Installation.
Accessory Slot:
Remove the small cover panel from this slot to install optional
accessories to remotely monitor and control your UPS. Refer to your accessory’s
manual for installation instructions. Contact Tripp Lite Customer Support at
773.869.1234 for more information, including a list of available SNMP, network
management and connectivity products.
External Battery Connector (optional on select models):
Use to connect
Tripp Lite external battery packs for additional runtime. Refer to instructions
available with the battery pack for complete connection information and safety
warnings. Visit tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate the supported
battery type(s) for your UPS.
Input Breaker:
Your UPS features one breaker that protects your UPS. If one or
more breakers trip, remove some of the load on the circuit(s), then reset them
by pressing the breaker switch(es) in.
