Basic Operation
LINE POWER:
This green light will turn ON whenever your UPS is receiving
normal AC line power. It will flash while the UPS is in CHARGE ONLY mode
to indicate that the UPS will not provide battery backup during a black-out
or brownout.
BATTERY POWER:
This yellow light will turn ON when your UPS is pro-
viding your equipment with battery power.
BATTERY CHARGE:
This red light will turn ON continuously after the UPS
runs a self-test to indicate that the UPS’s battery is weakly charged. If it
remains lit after you have allowed the UPS to charge for twelve hours and
have run a second self-test, contact Tripp Lite for service.
OVERLOAD (Select models only):
This red light will turn ON continuously
when the UPS is providing power from battery or after the UPS runs a
self-test to indicate that the UPS’s inverter is overloaded. If it lights up,
immediately remove some of the equipment connected to the UPS and run
a self-test. Large overloads may cause your UPS to shut down.
VOLTAGE REGULATION (Select models only):
This light will turn ON
when your UPS is automatically correcting high or low utility line voltage.
The UPS will also click gently when this automatic voltage regu-lation is
operating. These are both normal functions of your UPS, and no action is
required on your part.
Indicator Lights
All Indicator Light descriptions apply when the UPS is plugged into an AC outlet and turned on.
AC Receptacles:
“UPS/Surge” receptacles are used to provide your con-
nected equipment with AC line power during normal operation and bat-tery
power during blackouts and brownouts. They also protect your equip-
ment against damaging surges and line noise. “Surge-only” receptacles
(identified on the back of select UPS models) are used to provide periph-
erals with surge protection without committing precious battery power to
support them during blackouts.
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 equip-ment during a blackout.
Contact Tripp Lite Customer Support or con-sult your power protection
software manual for more information.
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 tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate
the specific replacement battery for your UPS.
