Plug the UPS into a properly grounded outlet: After plugging the UPS into a wall outlet, push the
ON/OFF/MUTE/TEST button to turn the UPS on (see Basic Operation section). Please Note! The UPS
will not turn on automatically in the presence of live utility power.
2. Plug your equipment into the UPS: Select outlets (see Basic Operation section) will provide
battery backup and surge protection; plug your computer, monitor and other critical devices here.*
Select outlets (see Basic Operation section) will provide surge protection only; plug your printer and
other non-essential devices here.
* Your UPS is designed to support electronic equipment only. You will overload the UPS if the total VA ratings
for all the equipment you connect to the Battery Backup Protected/Surge Protected outlets exceeds the UPS’s
Output Capacity. To nd your equipment’s VA ratings, look on their nameplates. If the equipment is listed in
amps, multiply the number of amps by 120 to determine VA. (Example: 1 amp × 120 = 120 VA). If you are unsure if
you have overloaded the Battery Backup Protected/Surge Protected outlets, run a self-test (see “ON/OFF/MUTE/
TEST” Button description).
Note: UPS system will function properly upon initial startup; however, maximum runtime for the unit’s battery will only
be accessible after it has been charged for 24 hours.
If the LINE POWER indicator light does not illuminate when the UPS is turned ON, try the following:
1. Make sure that the UPS is plugged into a live AC outlet.
2. Press the ON/OFF/MUTE/TEST button to start the UPS. (A beep should sound when the UPS starts.)
3. If the UPS still does not start, contact Tripp Lite Tech Support for assistance.

short chirp and then release the button. The system is now muted.
• ToRunaSelf-Test: Press and hold the “ON/OFF/MUTE/TEST” button until you hear
a long, sustained beep and then release the button. The system will now perform a
self-test.

button continuously until you hear a long, sustained beep; if you release
the button too early, you will turn the UPS system OFF and cut power to
connected equipment loads.
The test will last approximately 10 seconds as the UPS switches to battery to test its
load capacity and charge. All LEDs will be lit and the UPS alarm will sound. See LED
descriptions to determine the results of the self-test.
Note: You can leave connected equipment on during a self-test.
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.
*If fully charged.
