Indicator Lights, Other UPS Features | Tripp Lite TE-300, TE-700L

Indicator Lights

All Indicator Light descriptions apply when the UPS is plugged into a wall outlet and turned ON.

This green light will turn ON whenever your UPS is plugged in and receiving normal AC line power.

This red light will turn ON when your UPS is providing your equipment with battery power.

This yellow light will turn ON after you test your UPS battery’s charge with the “Mute/Test” Switch to indicate that the UPS’s battery is less than fully charged. If it stays on continuously, contact Tripp Lite for service. The light will flash after you set the “OFF/ON” Switch to the “OFF” position to indicate that the UPS will not provide battery backup during a blackout or brownout.

select models

This red light will turn ON when the UPS’s capacity has been exceeded while it is operating from battery power (either during a self-test or during a blackout). Remove overload from battery- supported outlets immediately.

Other UPS Features

AC Receptacles

The receptacles provide your connected equipment with AC line power during normal operation. They will provide battery power during blackouts and brownouts only if the “OFF/ON” Switch is set to the “ON” position. The receptacles also protect your equipment against damaging surges and line noise. Select models, however, feature “surge-only” receptacles (identified on the back of your UPS) that provide peripherals with surge protection without com- mitting precious battery power to support them during blackouts.

DB9 Port (Available on select models)

The DB9 port connects your UPS to any workstation or server. Use with Tripp Lite software and cabling to automatically save open files and shut down equipment during a blackout. This port sends contact-closure signals to indicate line-fail and low-battery sta- tus. It also receives a shut down signal from the connected computer to conserve the UPS battery charge. Contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for more information.
