printers, refrigerators, air conditioners and electric heaters should not be connected to the UPS.
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. Note: Models with tel/DSL/Ethernet
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, a
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.
External Battery Connector (Select Models Only): Use to connect a single Tripp Lite external battery pack for additional runtime. Refer to instructions available with the battery pack for complete connection information and safety warnings.
Automatic Voltage Regulation: The UPS will automatically correct abnormal AC line voltage. When automatic voltage regulation is operating, the UPS may click gently. This is a normal, automatic operation of the UPS, and no action is required.
