“MUTE/TEST” Button
To Silence (or “Mute”) UPS Alarms: briefly press and release the MUTE/TEST button.*
To Run a Self-Test: with your UPS plugged in and turned ON, press and hold
the MUTE/TEST button for two seconds.* Continue holding the button until
the alarm beeps several times and the UPS performs a self test. See “Results of
a Self-Test” below. Note: you can leave connected equipment on during a self-test.
Your UPS, however, will not perform a self-test if the UPS is not turned on (see
“ON/OFF/STANDBY” Button description).
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.
Results of a Self-Test: The test will last approximately 10 seconds as the
UPS switches to battery to test its load capacity and battery charge.
• If the “OUTPUT LOAD LEVEL” LED remains lit red and the alarm continues
to sound after the test, the UPS’s outlets are overloaded. To clear the overload,
unplug some of your equipment and run the self-test repeatedly until the
“OUTPUT LOAD LEVEL” LED is no longer lit red and the alarm is no
longer sounding.
* The alarm will beep once briefly after the indicated interval has passed.
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.
• If the “BATTERY WARNING” LED remains lit and the alarm continues
to sound after the test, the UPS batteries need to be recharged or replaced.
Allow the UPS to recharge continuously for 12 hours, and
repeat the self-test. If the LED remains lit, contact Tripp Lite for service.
If your UPS requires battery replacement, visit www.tripplite.com to
locate the specific Tripp Lite replacement battery for your UPS.
Basic Operation
continued
Buttons (Front Panel)
Indicator Lights (Front Panel)
All Indicator Light descriptions apply when the UPS is plugged into a wall outlet
and turned ON.
“POWER” LED: this green LED lights continuously when the UPS is ON and
supplying connected equipment with AC power from a utility source. The LED
flashes and an alarm sounds (4 short beeps followed by a pause) to indicate the
UPS is operating from its internal batteries during a blackout or severe
brownout. If the blackout or severe brownout is prolonged, you should save
files and shut down your equipment since internal battery power will eventually
be depleted. See “BATTERY CHARGE” LED description below.
“VOLTAGE CORRECTION” LED: this green LED lights continuously
whenever the UPS is automatically correcting high or low AC voltage on the
utility line without the assistance of battery power. The UPS will also emit a
slight clicking noise. These are normal, automatic operations of the UPS, no
action is required on your part.
