Basic Operation

Accessory Slot: Remove the small cover panel from this slot to install

optional accessories to remotely monitor and control your UPS. Refer to

your accessory’s manual for installation instructions. Contact Tripp Lite

Customer Support at 773.869.1234 for more information, including a list

of available SNMP, network management and connectivity products.

Voltage DIP Switches (select models): These switches enable you to

set the UPS to match actual input voltage. If the Voltage DIP Switches are

set above or below input voltage, the UPS will treat the input as a

continuous overvoltage or undervoltage condition, and will automatically

adjust input voltage to match the Voltage DIP Switch setting. This will

cause constant, unnecessary wear on the UPS system.

Note: The Voltage DIP Switches must be set with the UPS turned OFF and

disconnected from utility power. If the switches are set while the UPS is connected

to utility power, the setting will not take effect.

Power Sensitivity Adjustment: This dial is normally set fully counter-

clockwise, which enables the UPS to provide maximum protection against

waveform distortions in its AC input. When such distortion occurs, the UPS

will normally switch to providing sine wave power from its battery reserves

for as long as the distortion is present. In areas with poor utility power or

where the UPS’s input power comes from a backup generator, chronic

waveform distortion could cause the UPS to switch to battery too

frequently, draining its battery reserves. You may be able to reduce how

often your UPS switches to battery due to moderate waveform distortion by

experimenting with different settings for this dial. As the dial is turned

clockwise, the UPS becomes more tolerant of variations in its input

power’s AC waveform.

Note: The further the dial is adjusted clockwise, the greater the degree of waveform

distortion the UPS will allow to pass to connected equipment. When experimenting

with different settings for this dial, operate connected equipment in a safe test mode

so that the effect on the equipment of any waveform distortions in the UPS’s output

can be evaluated without disrupting critical operations.

External Battery Connector (optional): Use to connect Tripp Lite

external battery packs for additional runtime. Refer to instructions available

with the battery pack for complete connection information and safety

warnings.
