Quick Installation
STEP 3: Plug your equipment into the UPS: Select outlets will provide battery backup and surge pro-
tection; plug your computer, monitor and other critical devices here.* Select outlets will provide surge
protection only; plug your printer and other nonessential devices here. (See Basic Operation Section.)
* 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 Battery Backup Protected/Surge Protected 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 Battery Backup Protected/Surge Protected outlets, run a self-test
(see “MUTE/TEST” Button description).
CAUTION: The UPS must be plugged into a live AC outlet and turned on for 24 hours after initial
installation to fully charge the UPS's internal battery. Your connected equipment will receive utili-
ty-supplied AC power (if present) immediately after the UPS is plugged in and turned on; howev-
er, your connected equipment may not receive full battery backup in the event of a blackout or
severe brownout until the UPS's internal battery is fully charged.

“MUTE/TEST” Button
•To Silence (or “Mute”) UPS Alarms: briefly press and release the
MUTE/TEST button. Note: continuous alarms (warning you to shut down
connected equipment immediately) 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
2
until the alarm beeps several times and the UPS performs a self-test.
MUTE/TEST Button
See “Results of a Self-Test” below. Note: you can leave connected
equipment on during a self-test.
CAUTION! Do not unplug your UPS to test its battery. 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 LCD Display icons will be illuminated and the UPS alarm will sound.
•If the “FAULT” icon remains lit and the alarm continues to sound after the test, the battery-
supported outlets are overloaded. To clear the overload, unplug some of your equipment from the
battery-supported outlets and repeat the self-test until the “FAULT” icon is no longer lit and the
alarm is no longer sounding. Note: The alarm beeps once per minute.
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” icon 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 24 hours,
and repeat the self-test. If the icon continues to illuminate after repeated self tests, contact
Tripp Lite for service. Battery replacement should only be performed by qualified service
personnel. If the UPS requires battery replacement, Tripp Lite offers a complete line of replacement

LCD Status Screen
The LCD Status Screen indicates a variety of UPS
operational conditions. All descriptions apply when the
UPS is plugged into an AC outlet and turned on.
Note: The LCD will illuminate for 1 second when the
UPS is plugged in, before it is turned on. The LCD
Status Screen can be rotated for easy viewing, regard-
less of whether the UPS is in a horizontal or vertical
position. To rotate the LCD Status Screen: insert a small
tool in the slots on the sides of the screen to pop it out
of the UPS housing; rotate the screen, and snap it back
into the UPS housing.

in real time, the AC voltage that the UPS system is
receiving from the utility wall outlet. Although the
Meter may occasionally display input voltages which
stray outside the range of standard computer tolerance

(due to poor quality utility service), rest assured that the UPS is designed (through the use of automat-
ic voltage regulation) to continuously supply connected equipment with stable, computer-grade output
voltage. In the event of a blackout (power loss), severe brownout (low power) or overvoltage (high
power), the UPS will rely on its internal battery to supply computer-grade output voltage.
3b) “BATTERY CAPACITY” Meter: This meter displays the approximate charge level (in 20%
increments) of the UPS's internal battery. During a blackout or severe brownout, the UPS will switch
to battery power, the “ON BAT” icon will be illuminated and the charge level will deplete.
3c) “AVR” (Automatic Voltage Regulation) Icon: This icon will illuminate whenever your UPS is
automatically correcting AC line voltage without depleting battery power. This is a normal, automatic
operation of your UPS, and no action is required on your part.
3d) “REPLACE” (Battery Recharge/Replace) Icon: This icon will illuminate and an alarm will
sound after a self-test to indicate the UPS battery needs to be recharged or replaced. Allow the UPS to
recharge continuously for 24 hours, and repeat the self-test. If the icon continues to illuminate, contact
Tripp Lite for service. Battery replacement should only be performed by qualified service personnel.
3e) “ON BAT” (On Battery) Icon: During a severe brownout or blackout, this icon illuminates and
an alarm sounds (4 short beeps followed by a pause) to indicate the UPS is operating from its internal
batteries. Monitor the “Battery Capacity” Meter to determine the approximate battery charge level
available to support equipment. During a prolonged brownout or blackout, the alarm will sound
continuously (and the “BATTERY CAPACITY” Meter will show one 20% capacity segment shaded)
to indicate the UPS's batteries are nearly out of power; you should save files and shut down your equip-
ment immediately.
3f) “FAULT” Icon: This icon will illuminate and an alarm will sound after a self-test to indicate the
battery-supported outlets are overloaded. To clear the overload, unplug some of your equipment from
the battery-supported outlets and run the self-test until the icon is no longer illuminated 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.
