AC Receptacles: Your UPS features 15-amp AC outlets, and select models also feature 20-amp and 30- amp AC outlets. These output receptacles provide your connected equipment with AC line power during normal operation and battery power during blackouts and brownouts. The UPS protects equipment connect- ed to these receptacles against damaging surges and line noise. If you have a serial or USB connection to your UPS, you can remotely reboot connected equip- ment by turning the receptacles OFF and ON using Tripp Lite's PowerAlert Software. Select models have their receptacles divided into one or more load banks (labelled “LOAD 1,” etc.) which may be remotely switched OFF and ON using Tripp Lite UPS software without interrupting power to equipment con- nected to the other outlets. Select models feature special outlets (clearly labeled on the rear panel) which provide surge-only (not battery backup) protection. Select models also feature outlets labelled “UNSWITCHED”, which may not be remotely switched off. See software instructions for details.

Communications Ports (USB or RS-232): These ports connect your UPS to any Media Center PC or home automation system. Use with Tripp Lite’s PowerAlert Software and included cables to enable your Media Center PC, home automation system or server to automatically save open files and shut down equipment during a blackout. Also use PowerAlert Software to monitor a wide variety of AC line power and UPS operating conditions. Consult your PowerAlert Software manual or contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for more information. See “USB and RS-232 Serial Communications” in the “Optional Installation” section for installation instructions.
EPO (Emergency Power Off) Port: Your UPS features a EPO port that may be used to connect the UPS to a contact closure switch to enable emergency inverter shutdown. See Optional Installation.
