Your UPS comes with a robust internal
battery system; external batteries are
needed only to extend runtime. Adding
external batteries will increase recharge
time as well as runtime. Contact Tripp Lite
to find out which external battery packs
your model supports.

you will insert the battery pack cable. Complete installation instructions for your battery pack
appear in the battery pack owner's manual. Make sure that cables are fully inserted into their
connectors. Small sparks may result during battery connection; this is normal.
Do not connect or disconnect battery packs when the UPS is running on battery power.
Caution! When an external battery pack is connected, make sure the AC load does not
exceed the nameplate rating. Select models are derated when an external battery pack
is connected. See UPS nameplate label for derating details.
When connecting external batteries to the UPS, go to the Tripp Lite website at
tripplite.com/en/support/bpconfig/index.cfm to download the External Battery Pack Utility
software to configure your UPS for external battery support.
Note:
1. The runtime and charge rate will automatically recalculate once the External Battery Pack Tool process is
complete.
2. If the setup will no longer include external batteries, the UPS can be configured to work without external
batteries via the LCD Screen. See External Battery Settings Control section under Basic Operation for
details.
3. If external battery packs are removed, the UPS must be reset to "NO EXTERNAL BATTERY" via the LCD
interface or the External Battery Configuration Program available on the Tripp Lite website. Failure to do
so may result in damage to the internal batteries due to over-charging.
