Basic Operation continued Other UPS Features Hospital Grade AC Receptacles: The receptacles provide your connected equipment with AC line power during normal operation and battery power during blackouts and brownouts. They also protect your equipment against damaging surges and line noise. Tel/DSL Protection Jacks (Select Models Only): These jacks protect connected equipment against surges travelling over the modem/fax or telephone line. Connecting your equipment to these jacks is optional. Your UPS will still work properly without this connection. Not compatible with PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications. DB9 Port (Select Models Only): The DB9 port connects your UPS to any workstation or server. Use with Tripp Lite's PowerAlert UPS monitoring software and a DB9 cable to enable your computer to automatically save open files and shut down equipment during a blackout. The UPS can also report power availability and UPS status, and select UPS models have other capabilities. Consult your PowerAlert manual for more information. USB or DB9 Communication Port (select models only): These ports 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 or DB9 cable. A PowerAlert CD and USB or DB9 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 DB9 pass-through or 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.
