Use the MUTE/TEST button to do two things:
continued
• CHARGE ONLY Mode: DISABLES battery backup. UPS Conditions:
The UPS charges its battery and supplies power at its receptacles
when it is receiving utility line power. The "
flashing. Setting Advantages: Continues to charge the battery when
power is present while turning OFF the inverter to prevent battery
depletion during power outages when equipment is not in use.
Cold-Start Your UPS: You may "cold start" your UPS and use it as a
stand-alone power source when utility power is not present, providing
that the UPS battery is charged. To "cold start" your UPS, press and
hold the ON/OFF button until you hear a beep (about 2 seconds), then
release it. The "
" indicator light will illuminate and AC power
inverted from stored battery power will be provided at its receptacles.
Shut Down Your UPS: Press and hold the ON/OFF button when AC
line power is absent (i.e. during a blackout, or when the UPS is
unplugged) to deactivate your UPS.
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 alert
you to immediately shut down connected equipment.
Run a Self-Test: Your UPS performs a self-test whenever it is first
plugged in. To have it run a self-test at another time, leave your
connected equipment on. With your UPS plugged in and in the UPS
mode, press and hold this button until you hear a beep (about 2 seconds)
then release it.
Results of a Self-Test: All the LEDs will be lit and the UPS will emit
several short beeps as it momentarily switches to battery to test its
charge and load capacity. The test will last at most 10 seconds. If the
inverter is overloaded, the "
continue to beep after the test; if this happens, remove some of the load
and run the self-test again. If the batteries seem weak, the "
will stay lit and the UPS will continue to beep after the test; if this
happens, let UPS charge its batteries for 12 hours and repeat the test. If
the condition persists, contact Tripp Lite for service. 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.
