Basic Operation
AC Outlets:
The
A
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
A
outlets exceeds the UPS’s output capacity. If you are unsure if you
have overloaded the
A
outlets, run a self-test (see MUTE/TEST Button
description).

Indicator Lights
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.
