Basic Operation
Front Panel Switches
“ON/TEST” Button: This switch controls four separate UPS functions:
UPS Power ON
To turn the UPS on, press this button, hold it for several seconds until you hear
a beep, then release it. The “ON LINE” LED will illuminate.
UPS Self-Test
During normal on-line operation, press this button and hold it until you hear a
beep. This initiates a 10-second self-test of the battery. The UPS will shift to
battery power (all LEDs will illuminate) for ten seconds.
Alarm Silence
To silence the UPS “on-battery” alarm, press this button and hold it until you
hear a beep.
UPS Cold Start
To use your UPS as a stand-alone power source when AC power is unavailable
(i.e. during a blackout), press this button and hold it until you hear a beep. The
UPS will then provide battery power to its outlets.*
* The “ON BATT” Indicator Light will be illuminated since your UPS will be operating from battery
power.
“OFF” Button: This button turns power OFF at the UPS receptacles. Press
this switch, hold it until you hear a beep, then release it. The UPS will
continue charging and the fan will continue to cool internal components even
after you turn the UPS receptacles off. To turn the UPS OFF completely,
including the charger, disconnect the UPS’s power cord after pressing the
“OFF” switch.
Front Panel Indicator Lights
“ON LINE” LED: This green light will illuminate constantly to indicate the
UPS is performing normal on-line operation (filtering and resynthesizing
incoming AC line voltage to provide pure sine wave output). When this light
is illuminated, you can monitor the load level of your UPS on the “LOAD
ACTIVE METER” LEDs.
“LINE” LED: This green light will illuminate constantly to indicate the
utility supplied AC line voltage at your wall outlet is nominal. It will flash if
the line voltage is outside the nominal range (either too low or two high). No
action is required on your part when the LED flashes; the UPS continuously
and automatically filters AC line power to provide your equipment with pure
sine wave AC power, regardless of brownout or overvoltage conditions. If this
light is off, then AC line voltage is not present (blackout) or is at an extremely
high voltage, and the UPS will provide connected equipment with power from
battery.

Basic Operation
continued
Front Panel Indicator Lights
“BYPASS” LED: This yellow light will flash to indicate that the UPS’s
DC/AC inverter is deactivated and the UPS is in the “Bypass” mode. During
normal operation this LED will light briefly when the unit is plugged in, but if
an internal fault or overload occurs this light will flash constantly to show that
connected equipment will receive filtered AC mains power, but will not
receive battery power during a blackout. In this case, contact Tripp Lite for
service.
“FAULT” LED (select models only): This red light will flash when your UPS
detects an internal fault (overheating, overvoltages, etc.) or when it detects a
wiring fault in your wall outlet (reversed phases, missing ground, etc.) The
UPS will only detect wiring faults when it is plugged into a utility outlet but
not turned ON. If the light persists after restarting the UPS, contact an
electrician to check the AC line. Your UPS will identify the presence of most
(but not all) wiring faults.
“LOAD ACTIVE METER” LED: This green light will illuminate when
your UPS is receiving AC power to indicate that the set of four dual-function
LEDs is displaying the load level of your UPS.
“BATT ACTIVE METER” LED: This green light will illuminate when your
UPS is operating from battery power to indicate that the set of four dual-
function LEDs is displaying the battery charge level of your UPS. Note: the
“ON BATT” LED will also be illuminated.
“OVERLOAD” LED: This red light will illuminate constantly to indicate
that your UPS’s capacity has been exceeded while it is in on-line operation.
The UPS alarm will beep continuously. Immediately remove overload until
light and alarm goes off. If you do not immediately remove the overload, the
UPS will transfer from on-line to bypass operation.
“BATT LOW” LED: This yellow light will illuminate when your UPS’s
battery charge level is low. The UPS alarm will beep until either the battery
charge is depleted or the batteries are adequately recharged.
“ON BATT” LED: This green light will illuminate constantly to indicate that
AC line voltage is not present and your UPS is providing your equipment with
battery power. The UPS will also beep every two seconds, unless silenced by
the “ON/TEST” Button. When this light is illuminated, you can monitor the
battery charge level of your UPS on the “BATT ACTIVE METER” LEDs.

AC line power and UPS operating conditions. Consult your PowerAlert
Software manual or contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for more
information. See “USB and RS-232 Serial Communications” in the “Optional
Connections” section for installation instructions.
USB Port
(Select Models)
The DB9 port can be used to monitor and control your UPS using either RS-
232 or dry contact protocols.
DB9 Port
RS-232 communications are complex but easy to implement by using a DB9
cable to connect the UPS to a computer with Tripp Lite PowerAlert Software
installed.
Dry contact communications are simple, but some knowledge of electronics is
necessary to configure them. The DB9 port's pin assignments are shown in the
diagram at the left.
Units with both USB and DB9 ports: If the UPS battery is low, the UPS
sends a signal by bridging pins 1 and 5. If utility power fails, the UPS sends a
signal by bridging pins 8 and 5. To shut the UPS down remotely, short pin
3~pin 9 for at least 3.8 seconds.
Units with DB9 ports only: If the UPS battery is low, the UPS sends a signal
by bridging pins 1 and 5. If utility power fails, the UPS sends a signal by
bridging pins 8 and 5. To shut the UPS down remotely, send a 5V to 12V signal
on pin 3 (using pin 5 as the negative ground) for at least 3.8 seconds.
EPO (Emergency Power Off) Port: Select models feature a EPO port that
may be used to connect the UPS to a contact closure switch to enable
emergency inverter shutdown. See Optional Installation.
