Other UPS Features (Back Panel)
AC Output Receptacles: Your UPS features IEC320-C13 AC out- lets, and select models also feature IEC320-C19 AC outlets. These output receptacles provide your connected equipment with AC line power during normal operation and battery power during blackouts and brownouts. The UPS protects equipment connected to these recep- tacles against damaging surges and line noise. If you have a serial or USB connection to your UPS, you can remotely reboot connected equipment by turning the receptacles OFF and ON using Tripp Lite’s PowerAlert Software. Select models have their receptacles divided into one or more load banks (labeled “LOAD 1,” etc.) which may be remotely switched OFF and ON using Tripp Lite UPS software without interrupting power to equipment connected to the other outlets. See software instructions for details.
AC Input Receptacle: This receptacle accepts a user-supplied power cord (with country-specific plug).

RS-232 (DB9 port)
Communication Ports (USB or RS-232): These ports connect your UPS to any workstation or server. Use with Tripp Lite’s PowerAlert Software and included cables to enable your computer to automatically save open files and shut down equipment during a blackout. Also use PowerAlert Software to monitor a wide variety of AC line power and UPS operating conditions. Consult your PowerAlert Software manual or contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for more information. See “USB Communications” and “RS-232 Serial Communications” in the “Optional Installation” section for installation instructions.
EPO Port (select models): Your UPS features an EPO port that may be used to connect the UPS to a contact closure switch to enable emergency inverter shutdown. See “EPO Port Connection” in the “Optional Installation” section.
Battery Replacement Door: Under normal conditions, the original battery in your UPS will last several years. Battery replacement should be performed only by qualified service personnel. Refer to “Battery Warnings” in the Safety section. Should your UPS require battery replacement, visit Tripp Lite on the Web at www.tripplite.com to locate the specific replacement battery for your UPS.
External Battery Connector (select models): Use to connect one or more Tripp Lite battery packs for additional runtime. Refer to Specifications and/or the label next to the connector to determine the appropriate variety of battery pack to use. Refer to the battery pack instruction manual for complete installation information and important safety warnings. See “External Battery Connection” in the “Optional Installation” section.
