Basic Operation continued

“BATTERY CHARGE / BATTERY POWER” LED:

For SMX Models Only: when the UPS is operating from utility power, this multicolored LED indicates the approximate charge state of the UPS’s internal batteries: red indicates the batteries are begin- ning to charge; yellow indicates the batteries are roughly midway through charging; and green indicates the batteries are fully charged. When the UPS is operating from battery power during a blackout or severe brownout, this LED indicates the approximate amount of ener- gy (ultimately affecting runtime) that the UPS’s batteries will provide: red indicates a low level of energy; yellow indicates a medium level of energy; and green indicates a high level of energy. Since the runtime performance of all UPS batteries will gradually deplete over time, it is recommended that you periodically perform a self-test (see “MUTE/TEST” Button description) to determine the energy level of your UPS batteries BEFORE a blackout or severe brownout occurs. During a prolonged blackout or severe brownout, you should save files and shut down your equipment since battery power will eventu- ally be depleted. When the LED turns red and an alarm sounds contin- uously, it indicates the UPS’s batteries are nearly out of power and UPS shut down is imminent.

For OMNIX Models Only: this yellow LED will illuminate when your UPS is providing your equipment with battery backup power.

“BATTERY WARNING” LED: this LED lights red and an alarm sounds intermittently after you initiate a self test (See “MUTE/TEST” Button description) to indicate 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 continues to light, contact Tripp Lite for service. If your UPS requires battery replacement, visit www.trip- plite.com/support/battery/index.cfm to locate the specific Tripp Lite replacement battery for your UPS.
