Installation
Connection and Start-Up  
1
Plug your UPS’s line cord into an  
electrical outlet.  
Your UPS must be connected to a dedicated  
circuit of sufficient amperage. Note, however,  
that the select models may be fitted with  
different plug types. Refer to the “OP Rating/  
Plug Rating” chart printed on the top of your  
UPS.  
Once your UPS is plugged in, the fan and all  
Indicator Lights will turn ON. The “LINE” and  
“LOAD ACTIVE METER” LEDs will illuminate  
and the UPS will emit a beep to indicate normal  
operation. However, power is not supplied to  
your UPS’s AC outlets until the UPS is turned on.  
Your model may differ.

2
Plug your equipment into your UPS.  
Your UPS is designed to support audio/video  
systems and their associated servers, Media  
Center PCs, and a Tripp Lite HT3100PC Power  
Conditioning Center only. The total number of  
components connected should not exceed UPS  
capacity. This will overload your UPS system.  
You will also overload your UPS if you connect  
household appliances to the UPS's outlets.  
Your model may differ.

Turn your UPS ON:  
• Press the “ON/TEST” Button  
• Hold it for several seconds until you hear  
a beep  
• Release it  
Your UPS will begin providing AC power to its outlets.  
The “ON LINE” LED will illuminate.  
Optional Connections  
Your UPS will function properly without these  
connections.

Your model may differ.  
External Battery Connection  
4-5  
Check to ensure that the external batteries you  
are connecting match the voltage listed on  
your UPS's battery connector. All UPS models  
come with a robust internal battery system; all  
models feature connectors that accept optional  
external battery packs (sold separately from  
Tripp Lite) to provide additional runtime.  
Adding external batteries will increase  
recharge time as well as runtime. See the  
battery pack owner's manual for complete  
installation instructions. Make sure cables are  
fully inserted into their connectors. Small  
sparks may result during battery connection;  
this is normal. Do not connect or disconnect  
battery packs when the UPS is running on  
battery power.

Basic Operation  
Front Panel Switches  
“ON/TEST” Button: This switch controls four separate UPS functions:  
UPS Power ON  
To turn the UPS on, press this button, hold it for several seconds until  
you hear a beep, then release it. The “ON LINE” LED will illuminate.  
UPS Self-Test  
During normal on-line operation, press this button and hold it until  
you hear a beep. This initiates a 10-second self-test of the battery. The  
UPS will shift to battery power (all LEDs will illuminate) for ten  
seconds.  
Alarm Silence  
To silence the UPS “on-battery” alarm, press this button and hold it  
until you hear a beep.  
UPS Cold Start  
To use your UPS as a stand-alone power source when AC power is  
unavailable (i.e. during a blackout), press this button and hold it until  
you hear a beep. The UPS will then provide battery power to its outlets.*  
* The “ON BATT” Indicator Light will be illuminated since your UPS will be operating  
from battery power.  
“OFF” Button: This button turns power OFF at the UPS receptacles.  
Press this switch, hold it until you hear a beep, then release it. The  
UPS will continue charging and the fan will continue to cool internal  
components even after you turn the UPS receptacles off. To turn the  
UPS OFF completely, including the charger, disconnect the UPS’s  
power cord after pressing the “OFF” switch.  
Front Panel Indicator Lights  
“ON LINE” LED: This green light will illuminate constantly to indicate  
the UPS is performing normal on-line operation (filtering and  
resynthesizing incoming AC line voltage to provide pure sine wave  
output). When this light is illuminated, you can monitor the load level  
of your UPS on the “LOAD ACTIVE METER” LEDs.  
“LINE” LED: This green light will illuminate constantly to indicate  
the utility supplied AC line voltage at your wall outlet is nominal. It  
will flash if the line voltage is outside the nominal range (either too  
low or two high). No action is required on your part when the LED  
flashes; the UPS continuously and automatically filters AC line  
power to provide your equipment with pure sine wave AC power,  
regardless of brownout or overvoltage conditions. If this light is off,  
then AC line voltage is not present (blackout) or is at an extremely  
high voltage, and the UPS will provide connected equipment with  
power from battery.

(continued)  
Basic Operation  
continued  
Front Panel Indicator Lights  
“BYPASS” LED: This yellow light will flash to indicate that the  
UPS’s DC/AC inverter is deactivated and the UPS is in the “Bypass”  
mode. During normal operation this LED will light briefly when the  
unit is plugged in, but if an internal fault or overload occurs this light  
will flash constantly to show that connected equipment will receive  
filtered AC mains power, but will not receive battery power during a  
blackout. In this case, contact Tripp Lite for service.  
“FAULT” LED (select models only): This red light will flash when  
your UPS detects an internal fault (overheating, overvoltages, etc.) or  
when it detects a wiring fault in your wall outlet (reversed phases,  
missing ground, etc.) The UPS will only detect wiring faults when it  
is plugged into a utility outlet but not turned ON. If the light persists  
after restarting the UPS, contact an electrician to check the AC line.  
Your UPS will identify the presence of most (but not all) wiring faults.  
“LOAD ACTIVE METER” LED: This green light will illuminate  
when your UPS is receiving AC power to indicate that the set of four  
dual-function LEDs is displaying the load level of your UPS.  
“BATT ACTIVE METER” LED: This green light will illuminate  
when your UPS is operating from battery power to indicate that the  
set of four dual-function LEDs is displaying the battery charge level  
of your UPS. Note: the “ON BATT” LED will also be illuminated.  
“OVERLOAD” LED: This red light will illuminate constantly to indicate  
that your UPS’s capacity has been exceeded while it is in on-line operation.  
The UPS alarm will beep continuously. Immediately remove overload  
until light and alarm goes off. If you do not immediately remove the  
overload, the UPS will transfer from on-line to bypass operation.  
“BATT LOW” LED: This yellow light will illuminate when your UPS’s  
battery charge level is low. The UPS alarm will beep until either the  
battery charge is depleted or the batteries are adequately recharged.  
“ON BATT” LED: This green light will illuminate constantly to  
indicate that AC line voltage is not present and your UPS is providing  
your equipment with battery power. The UPS will also beep every two  
seconds, unless silenced by the “ON/TEST” Button. When this light  
is illuminated, you can monitor the battery charge level of your UPS  
on the “BATT ACTIVE METER” LEDs.

(continued)  
Basic Operation  
continued  
Front Panel Indicator Lights  
“REPLACE BATT” LED: This red light will illuminate constantly  
and the UPS alarm will beep every 2 seconds if your UPS’s  
microprocessor detects a battery fault or if your UPS fails the  
automatic self-test (after you turn your UPS ON) and the UPS battery  
is less than fully charged. Let the UPS system charge for at least 12  
hours and perform a self test using the “ON/TEST Button” as described  
on page 7. If the light continues to stay on, contact Tripp Lite for  
service.  
Rear Panel  
Accessory Slot: Remove the small cover panel from this slot to use  
optional accessories to remotely monitor and control your UPS.

runtime. Contact Tripp Lite Customer Support at (773) 869-1234 for  
the appropriate Tripp Lite battery pack to connect. Refer to  
instructions available with the Battery Pack for complete connection  
information and safety warnings.  
Fan: The fan cools the UPS’s internal components. It is always on  
when line power is present.  
Input Circuit Breaker Switch: This resettable breaker prevents high  
input current from damaging the UPS or the attached load. If this  
breaker trips, make sure your UPS is connected to AC power of the  
proper voltage before resetting the circuit breaker by pushing the  
breaker switch in.  
Ground Screw: Use this to connect any equipment that requires a  
chassis ground.  
Output Circuit Breakers Switches (Select Models Only): These  
resettable circuit breakers protect your UPS from output overload. If  
one or both breakers trip, remove some of the load on the circuit(s)  
and allow the UPS to cool before pressing the breaker switch(es) in  
to reset.

Rear Panel  
Input Cord: This permanently attached power cord connects your  
UPS to a power outlet.  
AC Receptacles (Varied by Model): These 15-, 20- and 30-amp  
receptacles provide your connected equipment with pure sine-wave  
AC output from the AC line during normal operation and from battery  
power during blackouts and severe brownouts. Power provided at  
these outlets is filtered to protect connected equipment against  
damaging surges and line noise. The receptacles are divided into  
numbered load banks, as labelled on the unit. Using PowerAlert  
software and cabling, load banks one and two may be individually  
turned off and on from a remote location, allowing users to reset or  
reboot connected equipment.  
NEMA 5-15R  
NEMA 5-15/20R  
Other outlet types not shown  
Telephone or Telephone/Network Protection Jacks: These jacks  
protect your equipment against surges over a telephone line or  
telephone/network data line, depending on model. Connecting your  
equipment to these jacks is optional. Your UPS will work properly  
without this connection. Not compatible with PoE (Power Over Ethernet) applications.  
Communications  
Communications Ports (USB or RS-232): These ports connect your  
UPS to any Media Center PC or home automation system. Use with  
Tripp Lite’s PowerAlert Software and included cables to enable your  
Media Center PC, home automation system or server to automatically  
save system settings and shut down equipment during a blackout.  
Also use PowerAlert Software to monitor a wide variety of AC line  
power and UPS operating conditions. Consult your PowerAlert  
Software manual or contact Tripp Lite Customer Support for more  
information. See “USB and RS-232 Serial Communications” in the  
“Optional Connections” section for installation instructions.  
Dry contact communications are simple, but some knowledge of  
electronics is necessary to configure them. The DB9 port's pin  
assignments are shown in the diagram. If the UPS battery is low, the  
UPS sends a signal by bridging pins 1 and 5. If utility power fails, the  
UPS sends a signal by bridging pins 8 and 5. To shut the UPS down  
remotely, short pin 3~pin 9 for at least 3.8 seconds.  
EPO (Emergency Power Off) Port: Your UPS features a EPO port  
that may be used to connect the UPS to a contact closure switch to  
enable emergency inverter shutdown. See Optional Installation.
