Optional Installation
Troubleshooting
These connections are optional. The UPS will function properly without these connections.
1
USB Communication Port: This port can connect your UPS to any computer for automatic
file saves and unattended shutdown in the event of a power failure. Use with Tripp Lite’s
PowerAlert software and appropriate USB cable. A PowerAlert CD and USB cable may be
included with your UPS; if so, insert the CD into the CD tray of your computer and follow
the installation instructions. If PowerAlert software and the appropriate cable did not come
with your UPS, you can obtain the software FREE via the Web at www.tripplite.com. Any
user-supplied USB cable may then be used to connect your UPS to your computer. Note: This
connection is optional. The UPS will work properly without this connection.
2
Telephone/DSL Protection Jacks: Your UPS has jacks that protect against surges over a
telephone/DSL line. Using telephone data cables, connect your wall jack to the UPS jack
marked “IN.” Connect your equipment to the UPS jack marked “OUT.” Make sure the
equipment you connect to the UPS system’s jacks is also protected against surges on the AC
line.
If the LINE POWER indicator light (LCD screen on Digital models) does not illuminate when the UPS is turned ON, try the following:
1
Make sure that the UPS is plugged into a live AC outlet.
2
If your UPS has a sliding ON/OFF switch, place it back in the OFF position, wait several seconds, then place it in the ON position again.
3
If your UPS had an ON/OFF button, you must press it for at least one second to start the UPS. (A beep should sound when the UPS starts.)
4
If the UPS still does not start, contact Tripp Lite Tech Support for assistance.
