Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains instructions and warnings that should be followed during the installation, operation and storage of this product. Failure to heed these warnings will void the warranty.

UPS Location Warnings

Install the UPS indoors, away from excess moisture or heat, dust or direct sunlight.
For best performance, keep the indoor temperature between between 32º F and 104º F (0º C and 40º C).
Leave adequate space around all sides of the UPS for proper ventilation.
Do not mount unit with its front or rear panel facing down (at any angle). Mounting in this manner will seriously inhibit the unit's internal cooling, eventually causing product damage not covered under warranty.

UPS Connection Warnings

The UPS contains its own energy source (battery). The output terminals may be live, even when the UPS is not connected to an AC supply.
Connect the UPS directly to a properly grounded AC power outlet. Do not plug the UPS into itself; this will damage the UPS.
Do not modify the UPS plug, and do not use an adapter that would eliminate the ground connection.
Do not use extension cords to connect the UPS to an AC outlet. The warranty will be void if anything other than Tripp Lite surge protectors are used to connect the UPS to an outlet.
If the UPS receives power from a motor-powered AC generator, the generator must provide clean, filtered, computer-grade output.
Install in accordance with National Electrical Code standards ANSI/NFPA 70 and Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, C22.1.
Short Circuit backup protection and overcurrent protection is provided by the building installation for permanently connected models.
To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to a circuit provided branch circuit overcurrent protection in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 and the Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, C22.1. Be sure to use maximum 20A overcurrent protection, in accordance with the plug/equipment rating, for the installation.
The plug on the power supply cord is intended to serve as the disconnect device. Be sure that the socket-outlet is installed near the equipment and is made easily accessible.

Equipment Connection Warnings

Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended.
Do not connect surge protectors or extension cords to the output of the UPS. This may damage the UPS and will void the surge protector and UPS warranties.

Quick Installation

Connect the UPS to an electrical outlet.
Make sure the outlet does not share a circuit with a heavy electrical load such as an air conditioner or refrigerator.
Plug a computer, monitor and/or other equipment into the UPS system.
The UPS is designed to support only computer equipment. Connecting high power draw equipment such as household appliances or laser printers to outlets providing UPS battery backup will overload the UPS. Special outlets (clearly labeled on the rear panel) provide surge-only (not battery backup) protection designed for laser printers and other high power draw equipment.
"UPS/Surge" receptacles are used to provide connected equipment with AC line power during normal operation and battery power during blackouts and brownouts. They also protect equipment against damaging surges and line noise. Connect the computer and monitor to the "UPS/Surge" receptacles.
Select UPS Operating Mode.
Press the ON/OFF button to toggle the UPS between the ON ("" LED lit) and the OFF ("" LED not lit) modes.

These connections are optional. The UPS will function properly without these connections.

Phone Line/Network Line Surge Suppression
The UPS has jacks which protect against surges over a phone or network data line.
Using telephone cords as appropriate, connect the wall jack to the UPS jack marked "IN." Connect equipment to the UPS jack marked "OUT." Make sure the equipment connected to the UPS jacks is also protected against surges on the AC line.
USB Communications
Use any USB cable to connect the computer's USB port to the USB port of the UPS. PowerAlert software can be obtained for free via the Web at www.tripplite.com. Download the software to your computer and follow the installation instructions.
RS-232 Communications (Select Models Only)
Use any DB9 cable to connect the computer's DB9 port to the DB9 port of the UPS. PowerAlert software can be obtained for free via the Web at www.tripplite.com. Download the software to your computer and follow the installation instructions.

Basic Operation

Buttons

ON/OFF Button:
Switch the Operating Mode: While the UPS is plugged into a live AC outlet, press the ON/OFF button and hold it until the UPS beeps (about 2 seconds) to toggle between ON and OFF.
ON Mode: ENABLES battery backup. UPS Conditions: The UPS charges the battery and supplies power to the outlets while receiving utility line power. The "" indicator light will illuminate. If utility power fails, the UPS provides power from battery.
Cold-Start: Cold start the UPS to use it as a stand-alone power source when utility power is not present (if the UPS battery is charged). To cold start the UPS, press and hold the ON/OFF button until the UPS beeps (about 2 seconds), then release. The "" indicator will illuminate and AC power inverted from stored battery power will be provided to the outlets.

MUTE/TEST Button:
Silence the UPS On-Battery Alarm: Press and hold this button to silence the UPS on-battery alarm. A series of short beeps followed by a brief pause will occur when the UPS is providing AC power from battery.

Note: When the battery is nearly depleted, the low battery alarm—a continuous beep that cannot be silenced—will warn to shut down connected equipment immediately.

Run a Self-Test: To run a self-test, leave connected equipment on. With the UPS plugged in and ON, press and hold the button until the UPS beeps (about 2 seconds) then release it.
Self-Test Results: All LEDs will illuminate and several short beeps will sound as the UPS momentarily switches to battery to test charge and load capacity. The test will last up to 10 seconds. If the inverter is overloaded, the "" LED will stay illuminated and the UPS will continue to beep after the test; if this happens, remove some of the load from the "UPS/Surge" outlets and run the self-test again. If the batteries are weak, the "" LED will stay illuminated and the UPS will continue to beep after the test. If this happens, let the UPS charge its batteries for 12 hours and repeat the test. If the condition persists, contact Tripp Lite for service.

Do not unplug the UPS to test its batteries. This will remove safe electrical grounding and may introduce a damaging surge into network connections.

Indicator Lights

All Indicator Light descriptions apply when the UPS is plugged into an AC outlet and turned on.
LINE POWER: This green light will illuminate whenever the UPS is ON and receiving normal AC line power.

BATTERY POWER: This yellow light will illuminate when the UPS is providing equipment with battery power.

REPLACE BATTERY: This red light will illuminate continuously after the UPS runs a self-test to indicate that the battery is weak. If it remains illuminated after allowing the UPS to charge for twelve hours and running a second selftest, contact Tripp Lite for service.

OVERLOAD (Select Models Only): This red light will illuminate continuously to indicate that the UPS is overloaded when the UPS is providing power from battery or after the UPS runs a self-test. If it illuminates, immediately remove some of the equipment connected to the "UPS/Surge" outlets and run a selftest. Large overloads may cause the UPS to shut down.

Other UPS Features

AC Receptacles: "UPS/Surge" receptacles are used to provide connected equipment with AC line power during normal operation and battery power during blackouts and brownouts. They also protect equipment against damaging surges and line noise. "Surge-Only" receptacles are used to provide peripherals with surge protection without committing precious battery power to support them during blackouts.
Telephone/DSL/Ethernet Protection Jacks: These jacks protect equipment against surges over a telephone or data line. Connecting equipment to these jacks is optional. The UPS will work properly without this connection.

Note: Models with tel/DSL/Ethernet (RJ45) jacks are not compatible with PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications.

RS-232 (Select Models Only) and USB Communication Ports: These ports can connect your UPS to any computer for automatic file saves and unattended shutdown in the event of a power failure. Use with Tripp Lite's PowerAlert Software (available as a FREE download at www.tripplite.com) and appropriate DB9 or USB cable. A DB9 or USB cable may be included with your UPS. If the appropriate cable did not come with your UPS, any user-supplied DB9 or USB pass-through cable may then be used to connect your UPS to your computer. This connection is optional. The UPS will work properly without this connection.

Note: This UPS System provides basic communication compatibility with most integrated Windows^®, Macintosh^® and Linux^® power management applications.

Battery Replacement Door: Under normal conditions, the original battery in the 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 http://www.tripplite.com/products/battery-finder/ to locate the specific replacement battery for your UPS.
Power Sensitivity Adjustment: This dial is normally set fully counterclockwise, which enables the UPS to protect against waveform distortions in its AC input. When such distortions occur, the UPS will normally switch to providing PWM sinewave power from its battery reserves for as long as the distortions are present. In some areas with poor utility power or where the UPS's input power comes from a backup generator, frequent brownouts and/or chronic waveform distortion could cause the UPS to switch to battery too often, draining its battery reserves. It may be possible to reduce how often the UPS switches to battery due to waveform distortion or brownouts by experimenting with different settings for this dial. As the dial is turned clockwise, the UPS becomes more tolerant of variations in its input power's AC waveform and switches to battery less often.

Note: The further the dial is adjusted clockwise, the greater the degree of waveform distortion the UPS will allow to pass to connected equipment. When experimenting with different settings for this dial, operate connected equipment in a safe test mode so that the effect on the equipment of any waveform distortions in the UPS's output can be evaluated without disrupting critical operations. The experiment should last long enough to assure that all expected line conditions are encountered.

Automatic Voltage Regulation (SMART550USB and SMART750USB Only): During brownouts, the UPS will automatically correct low AC line voltage. When automatic voltage regulation is operating, the UPS may click gently. This is a normal, automatic operation of the UPS, and no action is required.

Storage & Service

Storage

To avoid battery drain, all connected equipment should be turned off and disconnected from the UPS. Remove the AC input to the UPS, then press and hold the ON/OFF button for one second. Your UPS will be completely turned off (deactivated), and will be ready for storage. If you plan on storing your UPS for an extended period, fully recharge the UPS batteries every three months. Plug the UPS into a live AC outlet, turn it on by pressing and holding the ON/ OFF button for one second, and allow the batteries to recharge for 12 hours. If you leave your UPS batteries discharged for a long period of time, they will suffer a permanent loss of capacity.
