14 External Battery Pack Connectors: Use these connectors to connect the battery pack to the power module and to daisy-chain additional Tripp Lite external battery packs with the main external battery pack for extended runtime. (Daisy-chaining additional battery packs is optional.) Remove the retention bracket(s) for access (the diagram shows the upper bracket removed). Check to ensure that the external battery pack you are connecting matches the voltage listed next to the battery connector. Small sparks may result during battery connection; this is normal. Do not connect or disconnect battery packs while the UPS is running on battery power (the “BATTERY” LED will be lit on the control panel). Warning: Always use the connector retention brackets to secure the battery pack connection (see the “Connection” section for instructions). Do not operate the UPS system without the connector retention brackets in place.

15 Battery Power Cable: Use this cable to connect the battery pack to the power module.
