Basic Operation
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.
Results of a Self-Test:
The test will last approximately 10 seconds as
the UPS switches to battery to test its load capacity and battery charge.
• If the “OUTPUT LOAD LEVEL” LED remains lit red and the alarm
continues to sound after the test, the UPS system's outlets are
overloaded. To clear the overload, unplug some of your equipment
and run the self-test repeatedly until the “OUTPUT LOAD LEVEL” LED
is no longer lit red and the alarm is no longer sounding.
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 “BATTERY WARNING” LED 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 12 hours, and
repeat the self-test. If the LED remains lit, contact Tripp Lite for
service. If your UPS requires battery replacement, visit tripplite.com
to locate the specific Tripp Lite replacement battery for your UPS.
