"ON/OFF/TEST" Button
• To turn the UPS on: Press and hold the ON/OFF/TEST Button for one second. If utility power is
absent, pressing the Button will "cold-start" the UPS, i.e. turn it on and supply power from its
batteries.*
• To turn the UPS off: Press and hold the ON/OFF/TEST Button for one second.* The UPS will be turned
completely off (deactivated).
• To run a Self-Test: With your UPS plugged in and turned ON, press and hold the ON/OFF/TEST button
for three seconds.
* If fully charged.
CAUTION! To perform a self-test, you must hold the ON/OFF/TEST button continuously for three seconds;
if you release the button too early, you will turn the UPS system OFF and cut power to connected equipment
loads.
The test will last approximately 10 seconds as the UPS switches to battery to test its load capacity and charge. All
LEDs will be lit. See LED descriptions below to determine the results of the Self-Test.
Note: You can leave connected equipment on during a self-test.
CAUTION! Do not unplug your UPS to test its batteries. This will remove safe electrical grounding and may
introduce a damaging surge into your network connections.
2
"ON/OFF" LED: This green LED lights continuously to indicate that the UPS is ON and supplying your
equipment with AC power either from a utility source or from the UPS's internal batteries.
3
"OVERLOAD/CHECK BATTERY" LED: This red LED lights continuously after a self-test to indicate the
capacity of the battery-supported outlets has been exceeded. To clear the overload, unplug some of your equipment
from the battery-supported outlets; then use the ON/OFF/TEST button to run a Self-Test. If the UPS continues to
detect an overload, remove more equipment and repeat the self test until successful.
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. The LED flashes
to indicate the battery needs to be recharged or replaced. If the LED flashes during a prolonged blackout or
brownout, the UPS's batteries are nearly out of power; you should save files and shut down your equipment
immediately. If the LED flashes following a UPS self-test (after the UPS is turned ON), it may indicate that
the battery needs to be replaced. Allow the UPS to recharge continuously for 12 hours; then use the
ON/OFF/TEST button to run a Self Test. If the LED continues to flash, contact Tripp Lite for service. Should
your UPS require battery replacement, visit Tripp Lite on the web at www.tripplite.com/support/
battery/index.cfm to locate the specific replacement battery for your UPS.
4
Battery Backup Protected/Surge Protected Outlets: Provide both battery backup and surge protection. Plug your
computer, monitor and other critical equipment into these outlets. NOTE: DO NOT PLUG LASER PRINTERS
INTO THESE OUTLETS.
5
Tel/DSL Line Protection Jacks: These jacks protect equipment against surges over a single phone line. Select
models feature a built-in splitter (one jack in/two jacks out), allowing you to connect two devices sharing a single
line. Connecting your equipment to these jacks is optional. Your UPS will work properly without this connection.
6
Coax Protection Jacks: Gold coaxial "F" connectors protect connected equipment by stopping surges on asingle
DSS satellite, cable or antenna line. Connect a coaxial cable from the wall jack directly to the coaxial jack labeled
"IN." Connect a coaxial cable from the coaxial jack labeled "OUT" directly to the device to be protected. The UPS
system must always be the first item connected in line from the coaxial wall jack. The UPS system must be plugged
into a 3-wire grounded AC outlet for coaxial line surge protection to work. Make sure coax cables connected to
satellite dishes, antennas, etc. are also grounded. Connecting your equipment to these jacks is optional. Your UPS
will work properly without this connection.
7
Resettable Input Circuit Breaker: Protects your electrical circuit from overcurrent draw from the UPS load. If
this breaker trips, remove some of the load, then reset it by pressing it in.
