Quick Installation

STEP 1: To install the UPS in a 4-post rack, attach the included mounting hardware to the UPS as shown in diagram A . To mount the UPS in a 2-post rack, attach the included hardware to the UPS as shown in diagram B . Then, using an assistant if necessary, lift the UPS and attach it to a standard rack or rack enclosure with user- supplied hardware. Caution: If the UPS is placed flat on a surface, do NOT stack any other object directly on top of the unit. The UPS will stand in a tower position without the aid of the included hardware. However, for added stability Tripp Lite recommends that the included hardware be attached as shown in diagram C . The UPS and included hardware are designed for common rack and rack enclosure types and may not be appropriate for all applications.

STEP 2: Plug the UPS into a properly grounded outlet.

After plugging the UPS into a wall outlet, push the MODE button for two seconds to turn the UPS on (see Basic Operation section). Please Note! The UPS will not turn on automatically in the presence of live utility power.

STEP 3: Plug your equipment into the UPS.

*Your UPS is designed to support electronic equipment only. You will overload the UPS if the total VA ratings for all the equipment you connect to the outlets exceeds the UPS’s Output Capacity. To find your equipment’s VA ratings, look on their nameplates. If the equipment is listed in amps, multiply the number of amps by 120 to determine VA. (Example: 1 amp × 120 = 120 VA).If you are unsure if you have overloaded the outlets, run a self-test (see Self-Test description in Basic Operation section).

STEP 4: Optional Installation.

All models include USB and RS-232 communication ports as well as Tel/DSL/network surge protection jacks. These connections are optional; the UPS will work properly without these connections. See the connector's description in the Basic Operation section for connection instructions.

If the LINE POWER icon	does not illuminate when the UPS is turned ON, try the
following:

1.Make sure that the UPS is plugged into a live AC outlet.

2.Press the MODE button for 2 seconds to start the UPS. (A beep should sound when the

UPS starts.)

3.If the UPS still does not start, contact Tripp Lite Tech Support for assistance.
