Optional Connections
(continued)
USB and RS-232 Serial
Communications
Use the included USB cable (see
) and/or
DB9 serial cable (see
) to connect the UPS
to a Media Center PC, home automation
system or server. Install the Tripp Lite
PowerAlert Software appropriate to your
equipment's operating system. Your UPS may
feature additional communication ports; these
ports may be connected to additional home
entertainment or home automation PCs that
have PowerAlert Software installed. Consult
your PowerAlert manual for more information.
EPO Port Connection
This optional feature is only for those
applications that require connection to a home
automation/home security Emergency Power
Off (EPO) circuit. When the UPS is connected
to this circuit, it enables emergency shutdown
of the UPS's inverter. Using the cable
provided, connect the EPO port of your UPS
(see
) to a user-supplied normally closed or
normally open switch according to the circuit
diagram (see
).
The EPO port is not a
phone line surge suppressor; do not connect
a phone line to this port.
External Battery Connection
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.
