Mute/Test Button; Indicator Lights - Tripp Lite OMNIVS1500 Owner's Manual

Basic Operation

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 that is activated 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 be lit (except the AVR LED) and the
UPS will emit several short beeps as it 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 lit 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 lit 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. CAUTION: 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 lit after allowing the UPS to charge for twelve hours and
running a second self-test, contact Tripp Lite for service.
OVERLOAD: 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 lights up, immediately remove
some of the equipment connected to the "UPS/Surge" outlets and
run a self-test. Large overloads may cause the UPS to shut down.
Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR): This green light will
illuminate when your UPS is automatically correcting high or low AC
voltage. The UPS will also click gently. These are normal, automatic
operations of your UPS, and no action is required.
