receiving from the utility wall outlet. Although the

Meter may occasionally display input voltages which

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

stray outside the range of standard computer tolerance

(due to poor quality utility service), rest assured that the UPS is designed (through the use of automat- ic voltage regulation) to continuously supply connected equipment with stable, computer-grade output voltage. In the event of a blackout (power loss), severe brownout (low power) or overvoltage (high power), the UPS will rely on its internal battery to supply computer-grade output voltage.

3b) “BATTERY CAPACITY” Meter: This meter displays the approximate charge level (in 20% increments) of the UPS's 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.

3c) “AVR” (Automatic Voltage Regulation) Icon: This icon will illuminate whenever your UPS is automatically correcting AC line voltage without depleting battery power. This is a normal, automatic operation of your UPS, and no action is required on your part.

3d) “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.

3e) “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 UPS's batteries are nearly out of power; you should save files and shut down your equip- ment immediately.

3f) “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 your equipment from the battery-supported outlets and run the self-test 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.
