Tripp Lite Audio/Video Pure Sine Wave UPS Systems USB and RS-232 Serial Communications

Installation (continued)

Optional Connections (continued)

2USB and RS-232 Serial Communications

Use the included USB cable (see 2a ) and/or DB9 serial cable (see 2b ) to connect the UPS to a Media Center PC, home automation system or server. Install the Tripp Lite PowerAlert Software appropriate to your equipment's operating system. Your UPS may feature two communication ports; the additional port can be used to connect the UPS to a second home entertainment or home automation PC that has PowerAlert Software installed. For more information, consult your PowerAlerts manual.

3EPO Port Connection (Select Models)

This optional feature is only for those applications that require connection to a home automation/home security Emergency Power Off (EPO) circuit. When the UPS is connected to this circuit, it enables emergency shutdown of the UPS's inverter. Using the cable provided, connect the EPO port of your

UPS (see 3a ) to a user-supplied normally closed or normally open switch according to the circuit diagram (see 3b ). The EPO port is not a phone line surge suppressor; do not connect a phone line to this port.

4External Battery Connection

Check to ensure that the external batteries you are connecting match the voltage listed on your UPS's battery connector. All UPS models come with a robust internal battery system; all models feature connectors that accept optional external battery packs (sold separately from Tripp Lite) to provide additional runtime. Adding external batteries will increase recharge time as well as runtime. See the battery pack owner's manual for complete installation instructions. Make sure cables are fully inserted into their connectors. Small sparks may result during battery connection; this is normal. Do not connect or disconnect battery packs when the UPS is running on battery power.
