Other UPS Features

Basic Operation

AC Receptacles: “UPS/Surge” receptacles are used to provide connected equipment with AC line power during normal operation and battery power during blackouts and brownouts. They also protect equipment against damaging surges and line noise. Select models feature special outlets (clearly labeled on the rear panel), which provide surge-only (not battery backup) protection designed for laser printers and other heavy-draw devices.

Telephone/DSL/Ethernet Protection Jacks: These jacks protect equipment against surges over a telephone or data line. Connecting equipment to these jacks is optional. The UPS will work properly without this connection.

USB Communication Port: This port can connect your UPS to any computer for automatic file saves and unattended shutdown in the event of a power failure. Use with Tripp Lite's PowerAlert Software (available as a FREE download at www.tripplite.com) and appropriate USB cable. A USB cable may be included with your UPS. If the appropriate cable did not come with your UPS, any user-supplied USB cable may then be used to connect your UPS to your computer. This connection is optional. The UPS will work properly without this connection. Note: This UPS System provides basic communication compatibility with most integrated Windows®, Macintosh® and Linux® power management applications.

Battery Replacement Door: Under normal conditions, the original battery in the UPS will last several years. Battery replacement should be performed only by qualified service personnel. Refer to “Battery Warnings” in the Safety section. Should the UPS require battery replacement, visit Tripp Lite on the Web at www.tripplite.com/support/ battery/index.cfm to locate the specific replacement battery for the UPS.

Power Sensitivity Adjustment: This dial is normally set fully counterclockwise, which enables the UPS to protect against waveform distortions in its AC input. When such distortions occur, the UPS will normally switch to providing PWM sinewave power from its battery reserves for as long as the distortions are present. In some areas with poor utility power or where the UPS’s input power comes from a backup generator, frequent brownouts and/or chronic waveform distortion could cause the UPS to switch to battery too often, draining its battery reserves. It may be possible to reduce how often the UPS switches to battery due to waveform distortion or brownouts by experimenting with different settings for this dial. As the dial is turned clockwise, the UPS becomes more tolerant of variations in its input power’s AC waveform and switches to battery less often. NOTE: The further the dial is adjusted clockwise, the greater the degree of waveform distortion the UPS will allow to pass to connected equipment. When experimenting with different settings for this dial, operate connected equipment in a safe test mode so that the effect on the equipment of any waveform distortions in the UPS’s output can be evaluated without disrupting critical operations. The experiment should last long enough to assure that all expected line conditions are encountered.

OMNIVS1500 specifications

Tripp Lite’s OMNIVS series of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) is designed to provide reliable protection for home and office electronics. The models in the series, including the OMNIVS1500XL, OMNIVS1000, OMNIVS800, and OMNIVS1500, deliver key features that enhance performance, efficiency, and user experience.

The OMNIVS1500XL is the highest capacity model in the series, offering 1500 VA / 900 Watts of power. It features automatic voltage regulation (AVR), which stabilizes voltage fluctuations without switching to battery power, ensuring that connected equipment receives consistent power. The LCD display provides real-time data on battery status, load levels, and estimated runtime, making it easy for users to monitor their power situation.

The OMNIVS1000, with a capacity of 1000 VA / 600 Watts, meets the needs of users who require reliable power for desktop computers, networking equipment, and other sensitive electronics. Like its larger counterpart, this model includes AVR and a user-friendly LCD interface. With several outlets, it enables multiple devices to be protected simultaneously, ensuring that everything from gaming consoles to home office equipment remains powered during outages.

For users with lighter power requirements, the OMNIVS800 delivers a capacity of 800 VA / 450 Watts. This model is ideal for more compact setups, providing enough power for essential devices while still maintaining the features that Tripp Lite is known for, such as AVR and a clear LCD display.

The OMNIVS1500 combines a balance of power and features, making it a versatile choice for small to medium office environments. Featuring a capacity of 1500 VA / 900 Watts, it is equipped with multiple outlets to accommodate various devices.

All models in the OMNIVS series feature advanced battery technology, ensuring efficient power management and long life. They come equipped with a range of outlets, including surge-protected and battery-backed options, enabling users to prioritize the protection of sensitive equipment. Additionally, the compact design of these UPS units allows for easy integration into various environments, whether on a desktop or tucked away in a rack.

Overall, the Tripp Lite OMNIVS series provides an effective solution for safeguarding essential electronics against power disruptions while offering features that enhance usability and performance across different models.
