Installation

Input Connection

1Connect a user-supplied power cord to the UPS system’s IEC-320-C14 input receptacle , located at the end of the input power cord. The user-supplied power cord should have an IEC-320-C13 connector at one end and a plug compatible with the local site’s utility outlets at the other end. (Your computer’s detachable power cord is

probably compatible.)

Note: The plug will vary depending on the type of power cord supplied by the user.

2After connecting the user-supplied power cord to the UPS system’s IEC-320-C14 input receptacle, insert the plug directly into a grounded 230V AC outlet. The outlet should not share a circuit with a heavy electrical load such as an air conditioner or refrigerator.

Power On

3Press the ON/OFF/TEST/MUTE button for 1 second (the UPS will beep) to turn the UPS system on. The green ON/OFF light will illuminate when the UPS system is on.

Note: The UPS system will not begin to charge its battery until it has been turned on. Connected equipment will not be supported adequately during a power failure until the internal battery has charged for 4-6 hours. It will take up to 8 hours for the battery to charge completely.

Output Connections

4Using the included C13-to-C14 power cord , connect a personal computer or other electronic equipment to one of the UPS system’s IEC-320-C13 output receptacles . Connect additional equipment with user-supplied power cords that have a C14 connector at one end.

Note: Laser printers, large household appliances or other equipment with very high power requirements should not be connected to the UPS. The UPS will become overloaded if the combined power requirement for all connected equipment exceeds the total output capacity of the UPS (550VA). The VA rating for each piece of equipment can be found by consulting the equipment’s documentation and/or nameplate. If amps are shown, multiply by 230V to determine VA (Volts x Amps = VA).

C13-to-C14 power cords (Part # P004-006) are available from Tripp Lite. Call +1 773 869 1234 for more information.
