Basic Operation
Buttons (Front Panel)
“ON/OFF/STANDBY” Button
• To turn the UPS ON: with the UPS plugged into a live AC wall outlet*,
press and hold the “ON/OFF/STANDBY” button for one second.** Release
the button. If utility power is absent, you can “cold-start” the UPS (i.e.:
turn it ON and supply power for a limited time from its batteries***) by
pressing and holding the “ON/OFF/STANDBY” button for one second.**
• To turn the UPS OFF: with the UPS ON and receiving utility power, press
and hold the “ON/OFF/STANDBY” button for one second.** Then unplug
the UPS from the wall outlet. The UPS will be completely OFF.
* After you plug the UPS into a live AC outlet, the UPS (in ”Standby” mode) will
automatically charge its batteries, but will not supply power to its outlets until it is
turned ON. ** The alarm will beep once briefly after the indicated interval has passed.
*** If fully charged.
“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 continues to illuminate red and the
alarm continues to sound after the test, the UPS outlets are overloaded.
To clear the overload, unplug some of your equipment and run the self-
test repeatedly until the “OUTPUT LOAD LEVEL” LED no longer illuminates
red and the alarm no longer sounds.
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 illuminated 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 illuminated, 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.
* The alarm will beep once briefly after the indicated interval has passed.
