Note:

1. The runtime will automatically recalculate once the External Battery Pack Tool process is complete.

2. If the setup will no longer include external batteries, the UPS can be configured to work without external

batteries via the LCD Screen. See External Battery Settings Control section under Basic Operation for details.

3. If external battery packs are removed, the UPS must be reset to “NO EXTERNAL BATTERY” via the LCD

interface or the External Battery Configuration Program available on the Tripp Lite website. Failure to do so

may result in damage to the internal batteries due to over-charging.
