Phone Line/Network Line Surge Suppression

Your UPS has jacks which protect against surges over a phone or network dataline. Using telephone cords or network data cables as appropriate, connect your wall jack to the UPS jack marked “IN.” Connect your equipment to the UPS jack marked “OUT.” Make sure the equipment you connect to the UPS’s jacks is also protected against surges on the AC line.

To Silence (or “Mute”) UPS Alarms: briefly press and release the

MUTE/TEST button. Note: continuous alarms (warning you to imme- diately shut down connected equipment) cannot be silenced.

To Run a Self-Test: with your UPS plugged in and turned ON, press and hold the MUTE/TEST button for two seconds. Continue holding the button until the alarm beeps several times and the UPS performs a self test. See “Results of a Self-Test” below. Note: you can leave connected equipment on during a self-test. Your UPS, however, will not perform a self-test if you have placed it in “Charge-Only” mode (see “ON/OFF” Button description).

Basic Operation

Buttons

“ON/OFF” Button

•To turn the UPS ON: if utility power is present, the UPS will turn ON automatically. If utility power is absent, you can “cold-start” the UPS (i.e.: turn it ON and supply power from its batteries*) by pressing and holding the ON/OFF button for one second.**

•To turn the UPS OFF: first, unplug the UPS from the wall outlet; then press and hold the ON/OFF button for one second.** The UPS will be completely “OFF” (deactivated).

•To place the UPS in “Charge-Only” Mode: this mode enables bat-

tery charging, but disables battery backup. WARNING: when the UPS is in this mode, it will not provide battery backup during a blackout or brownout. This mode is only recommended for use in areas that experience frequent blackout/brownout conditions and when connected equipment is not in use. Press and hold the ON/OFF button for four seconds to place the UPS in this mode.** Press and hold the ON/OFF button for one second** to take the UPS out of this mode.

*If fully charged. ** The alarm will beep once briefly after the indicated interval has passed (with the exception of a continuous beep which signals transition to the “Charge-Only” Mode).

CAUTION! Do not unplug your UPS to test its batteries. This will remove safe electrical grounding and may introduce a damaging surge into your network connections.

Results of a Self-Test: The test will last approximately 10 seconds as the UPS switches to battery to test its load capacity and charge. All LEDs will be lit and the UPS alarm will sound.

•If the “OVERLOAD” LED remains lit and the alarm continues to sound after the test, the battery-supported outlets are over- loaded. To clear the overload, unplug some of your equipment from the battery-supported outlets and run the self-test repeat- edly until the “OVERLOAD” LED is no longer lit 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.

•If the “REPLACE BATTERY” LED remains lit and the alarm continues to sound after the test, the UPS batteries need to be recharged or replaced. Allow the UPS to recharge continuously for 12 hours, and repeat the self-test. If the LED remains lit, contact Tripp Lite for service. If your UPS requires battery replacement, visit www.tripplite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate the specific Tripp Lite replacement battery for your UPS.
