Important Safety Instructions
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the
installation, operation and storage of this product. Failure to heed these warnings will void
the warranty.
UPS Location Warnings
• The UPS is designed for indoor use only in a controlled environment, away from excess
moisture, extreme temperatures, conductive contaminants, dust or direct sunlight.
• Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
UPS Connection Warnings
• Connect the UPS directly to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug the UPS into
itself; this will damage the UPS.
• Do not modify the UPS plug, and do not use an adapter that would eliminate the UPS ground
connection.
• Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet. The warranty will be void if
anything other than Tripp Lite surge suppressors are used to connect the UPS to an outlet.
• If the UPS receives power from a motor-driven AC generator, the generator must provide clean,
filtered, computer-grade output.
• The UPS contains its own energy source (battery). The output terminals may be live even when
the UPS is not connected to an AC outlet.
Equipment Connection Warnings
• Do not use Tripp Lite UPS Systems for life support applications in which a malfunction or
failure of a Tripp Lite UPS System could cause failure or significantly alter the performance of
a life support device.
• Do not connect surge suppressors or extension cords to the output of the UPS. This might dam-
age the UPS and will void the surge suppressor and UPS warranties.
Battery Warnings
• The UPS does not require routine maintenance. Do not open the UPS for any reason. There are
no user-serviceable parts inside.
• Batteries can present a risk of electrical shock and burn from high short-circuit current. Observe
proper precautions. Do not dispose of the batteries in a fire. Do not open the UPS or batteries.
Do not short or bridge the battery terminals with any object. Unplug and turn off the UPS before
performing battery replacement. Use tools with insulated handles. There are no user-servicea-
ble parts inside the UPS. Battery replacement should be performed only by authorized service
personnel using the same number and type of batteries (sealed Lead-Acid).
• The batteries are recyclable. Refer to local codes for disposal requirements or in the USA
only call 1-800-SAV-LEAD or 1-800-8-BATTERY (1-800-822-8837) or visit www.rbrc.com for
recycling information. Tripp Lite offers a complete line of replacement batteries at
www.tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm.
• Do not attempt to add an external battery pack to the UPS.
Quick Installation
STEP 1: Place the UPS in either a horizontal or vertical (tower) position.
CAUTION: To safely balance the UPS when it is placed in a vertical ("tower") position,
make sure the LCD Display is located at the top of the front panel.
STEP 2: Plug the UPS into an outlet that doesn't share a circuit with a heavy electrical
load.*
* An air conditioner, refrigerator, etc.
After plugging the UPS into a wall outlet, push the ON/OFF button for one second to turn the
UPS on (see Basic Operation section). Please Note! The UPS will not turn on automatically
in the presence of live utility power.
STEP 3: Plug your equipment into the UPS.
* Your UPS is designed to support electronic equipment only. The UPS will become overloaded if the total VA ratings for all the
equipment connected to the outlets exceeds the Output Capacity. To find VA ratings, look on the equipment nameplates. If the
equipment is rated in amps, multiply the number of amps by 120 volts to determine VA. (Example: 1 amp × 120 volts = 120 VA). If
unsure if the outlets are overloaded, run a self-test (see "MUTE/TEST" Button description).
STEP 4: Optional Installation. The UPS includes USB and RS-232 communication ports as
well as coaxial and Tel/DSL/Network surge protection jacks. (Not compatible with PoE
(Power over Ethernet) applications.) These connections are optional; the UPS will work prop-
erly without these connections. See the connector descriptions in the Basic Operation section for
connection instructions.

MUTE/TEST Button
1
"ON/OFF" Button:
• To turn the UPS on: Press and hold the ON/OFF Button for one second.* If utility power
is absent, pressing the Button will "cold-start" the UPS, i.e. turn it on and supply power from
its battery.**
• To turn the UPS off: Press and hold the ON/OFF Button for one second.* The UPS will be
turned completely off (deactivated).
* The alarm will beep once briefly after one second has passed. ** Providing runtime proportionate to the battery's level of charge.

"MUTE/TEST" Button:
• To Silence (or "Mute") UPS Alarms: Briefly press and release the MUTE/TEST button.
Note: continuous alarms (warning to shut down connected equipment immediately) cannot
be silenced.
• To Run a Self-Test: With the UPS plugged in and turned on, press and hold the
MUTE/TEST button for two seconds. Continue holding the button until the alarm beeps
several times and the UPS performs a self-test. See "Results of a Self-Test"
below. Note: leave connected equipment on during a self-test.
CAUTION! Do not unplug the UPS to test its battery. This will remove safe electrical
grounding and may introduce a damaging surge into network connections.
Results of a Self-Test: The test will last approximately 10 seconds as the UPS switches to
battery to test load capacity and charge. All LCD Display icons will be illuminated and the
UPS alarm will sound.
• If the "FAULT" icon remains lit and the alarm continues to sound after the test, the outlets
are overloaded. To clear the overload, unplug some equipment from the outlets and run the
self-test repeatedly until the "FAULT" icon 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.
• If the "REPLACE" icon remains lit and the alarm continues to sound after the test, the UPS
batteries need to be recharged or replaced. Allow the UPS to recharge continuously for 12
hours, and repeat the self-test. If the icon continues to illuminate after repeated self tests,
contact Tripp Lite for service. Battery replacement should only be performed by
qualified service personnel. If the UPS requires battery replacement, Tripp Lite offers a
complete line of replacement batteries at www.tripplite.com.

LCD Display:
The LCD Display indicates a variety of UPS operational conditions. All descriptions apply
when the UPS is plugged into a live AC outlet and turned on. The LCD Display can be rotat-
ed for easy viewing, regardless of whether the UPS is in a horizontal or vertical ("tower")
position. To rotate the display, insert a small tool in the slots on the sides of the display to pop
it out of the UPS housing; rotate the display, and snap it back into the UPS housing.
3a) "INPUT VOLTAGE" Meter: This meter measures, in real time, the AC voltage that the
UPS system is receiving from the utility wall outlet. Although the meter may occasionally
display input voltages which stray (due to poor quality utility service) outside the range of
standard computer tolerance, rest assured that the UPS is designed (through the use of
automatic voltage regulation) to continuously supply connected equipment with stable
output voltage. In the event of a blackout (power loss), severe brownout (low power) or over-
voltage (high power), the UPS will rely on its internal battery to supply stable output voltage.
3b) "BATTERY CAPACITY" Meter: This meter displays the approximate charge level (in
20% increments) of the internal battery. During a blackout or severe brownout, the UPS will
switch to battery power, the "ON BAT" icon will be illuminated, and the charge level will
deplete.
