Basic Operation
Other UPS Features (Rear Panel)
AC Receptacles: Your UPS features IEC320-C13 outlets. These output
receptacles 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 receptacles against damaging surges and
line noise. If you have a serial or USB connection to your UPS, you can remote-
ly reboot connected equipment by turning individually controllable receptacles
IEC320-
OFF and ON using Tripp Lite's PowerAlert Software. Three receptacles,
C13/230V
labeled LOAD 1, LOAD 2 and LOAD 3, are individually controllable and may
be remotely switched OFF and ON using PowerAlert Software without
interrupting power to equipment connected to other outlets. Outlets labeled
UNSWITCHED may not be remotely turned off. Unswitched outlets can only
be turned off by turning off all output receptacles. See software instructions for
details.
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 mon-
itor 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.
Voltage DIP Switches: These switches enable the UPS to be set to match
actual input voltage. If the Voltage DIP Switches are set above or below input

voltage, the UPS will treat the input as a continuous overvoltage or undervolt-

age condition, and will automatically adjust input voltage to match the Voltage
DIP Switch setting. This will cause constant, unnecessary wear on the UPS.
Note: The Voltage DIP Switches must be set with the UPS turned OFF and
disconnected from utility power. If the switches are set while the UPS is
connected to utility power, the setting will not take effect.
