Basic Operation (Front Panel)
continued
• If the “FAULT” icon remains lit and the alarm continues to sound after the test, the battery-
supported outlets are overloaded. To clear the overload, unplug some of your equipment from
the battery-supported outlets and repeat the self-test until the “FAULT” icon is no longer lit and
the alarm is no longer sounding.
Note:
The alarm beeps once per minute.
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 “REPLACE” icon remains lit 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 24
hours, and repeat the self-test. If the icon continues to illuminate after repeated self tests,
contact Tripp Lite for service. Battery replacement should only be performed by qualified
service personnel. If the UPS requires battery replacement, Tripp Lite offers a complete line of
replacement batteries at www.tripplite.com.
Note:
The alarm beeps once per minute.

LCD Status Screen
The LCD Status Screen indicates a variety
of UPS operational conditions. All
descriptions apply when the UPS is plugged
into an AC outlet and turned on.
Note: The LCD will illuminate for 1 second
when the UPS is plugged in, before it is
turned on. The LCD Status Screen can be
rotated for easy viewing, regardless of
whether the UPS is in a horizontal or
vertical position. To rotate the LCD Status
Screen: insert a small tool in the slots on
the sides of the screen to pop it out of the
UPS housing; rotate the screen, and snap
it back into the UPS housing.

“Input Voltage” Meter:
This meter measures, in real time, the AC voltage that the UPS
system is receiving from the utility wall outlet. Although the Meter may occasionally display
input voltages which stray outside the range of standard computer tolerance (due to poor
quality utility service), rest assured that the UPS is designed (through the use of automatic
voltage regulation) to continuously supply connected equipment with stable, computer-grade
output voltage. In the event of a blackout (power loss), severe brownout (low power) or
overvoltage (high power), the UPS will rely on its internal battery to supply computer-grade
output voltage.
3b
“BATTERY CAPACITY” Meter:
This meter displays the approximate charge level (in 20%
increments) of the UPS's internal battery. During a blackout or severe brownout, the UPS will
switch to battery power, the “ON BAT” icon will be illuminated and the charge level will deplete.
3c
“AVR” (Automatic Voltage Regulation) Icon:
This icon will illuminate whenever your UPS is
automatically correcting AC line voltage without depleting battery power. This is a normal,
automatic operation of your UPS, and no action is required on your part.
3d
“REPLACE” (Battery Recharge/Replace) Icon:
This icon will illuminate and an alarm will
sound after a self-test to indicate the UPS battery needs to be recharged or replaced. Allow
the UPS to recharge continuously for 24 hours, and repeat the self-test. If the icon continues
to illuminate, contact Tripp Lite for service. Battery replacement should only be performed by
qualified service personnel.
