•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 battery.**
•To Turn the UPS Off: Press and hold the ON/OFF Button for one second.* The UPS will be turned off completely.
*The alarm will beep once after one second has passed. ** Providing runtime proportionate to the UPS battery's level of charge.
2“MUTE/TEST” Button
•To Silence (or “Mute”) UPS Alarms: Briefly press and release
the MUTE/TEST button. Note: continuous alarms that warn 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: connected equipment may remain connected during a self-test.
CAUTION! Do not unplug the UPS to test the 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 battery-supported outlets are overloaded. To clear the overload, unplug some equipment from the battery-supported 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 24 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.
rely on the internal battery to supply computer-grade output voltage.
3-2) “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.
3-3) “AVR” (Automatic Voltage Regulation) Icon: This icon will illuminate whenever the UPS is automatically correcting low AC line voltage without depleting battery power. This is a normal, automatic operation of the UPS, and no action is required.
3-4) “REPLACE” (Battery Recharge/Replace) Icon: This icon will illuminate and an alarm will sound after a self-test to indicate the UPS battery needs to be recharged or replaced. Allow the UPS to recharge continuously for 24 hours, and repeat the self-test. If the icon continues to illuminate, 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. 3-5) “ON BAT” (On Battery) Icon: During a severe brownout or blackout, this icon illuminates and an alarm sounds (4 short beeps followed by a pause) to indicate the UPS is operating from its internal batteries. Monitor the “Battery Capacity” Meter to determine the approximate battery charge level available to support equipment. During a prolonged brownout or blackout, the alarm will sound continuously (and the “BATTERY CAPACITY” Meter will show one 20% capacity segment shaded) to indicate the batteries are nearly out of power; save files and shut down your equipment immediately.
3-6) “FAULT” Icon: This icon will illuminate and an alarm will sound after a self-test to indicate the battery-supported outlets are overloaded. To clear the overload, unplug some of the equipment from the battery-supported outlets and run the self-test repeatedly until the icon is no longer illuminated 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.
3-7) LCD Dimmer: Adjusts the brightness of the LCD Display.
