The UPS will function properly without these connections. 1 Phone Line/Network Line Surge Suppression The UPS has jacks which protect against surges over a phone line or network data line. Using telephone cords or network data cables as appropriate, connect the wall jack to the UPS jack marked "IN." Connect equipment to the UPS jack marked "OUT." Make sure the equipment connected to the UPS jacks is also protected against surges on the AC line. NOTE: Tel/DSL/Ethernet (RJ-45) jacks not compatible with PoE 1 (Power over Ethernet) applications. 2 USB Communications Use a USB cable to connect the computer's USB port to the USB port of the UPS. Download the PowerAlert UPS monitoring software program appropriate for the computer's operating system from www.tripplite.com/software/ and install it. NORM DELAY NORM DELAY 3 External Battery Connection 2 (Select Models) All UPS models come with a robust internal battery system; NORM DELAY select models feature connectors that accept an optional external battery pack (sold separately from Tripp Lite) to provide additional runtime. Adding an external battery will increase recharge time as well as runtime. See 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.
