Accessory Slot: Remove the small cover panel from this slot to install option-
al accessories to remotely monitor and control your UPS. Refer to your acces-
sory’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.
Power Sensitivity Adjustment: This dial is normally set fully counter-clock-
wise, which enables the UPS to provide maximum protection against waveform
distortions in its AC input. When such distortion occurs, the UPS will normal-
ly 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 mod-
erate 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 clock-
wise, 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 (Select Models Only): 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.
Battery Charge Level Switches (Select Models Only): Controls the UPS
system’s battery charge rate. If you connect any external batteries, set the Battery
Charge Level Switch to the down position. This will increase your UPS's charger
output so the additional batteries charge faster.
CAUTION! DO NOT set the Battery Charge Level Switches to the down
position without an external battery connected. There is a risk of damaging the
UPS’s internal battery system.
Input Breaker(s) (all models): Protect your electrical circuit from overcurrent
draw from the UPS load. If these breakers trip, remove some of the load, then
reset them by pressing the breaker(s) in.
Ground Screw: Use this to connect any equipment that requires a chassis ground.
