How to install Tripp Lite by Eaton 1440VA 900W Line-Interactive UPS

• 1. Position the UPS near a wall outlet in a well-ventilated area, away from heat sources, moisture, and excessive dust. Ensure there is enough clearance for the LCD to be read and for airflow around the unit.
• 2. Plug the UPS into a dedicated, grounded 120V circuit. Avoid using extension cords or power strips for the UPS itself to ensure clean, reliable operation.
• 3. Connect your critical devices to the UPS outlets—the computer, monitor, modem/router, and any peripherals that require uninterrupted power. Reserve nonessential devices for surge protection on the remaining outlets if applicable.
• 4. Connect the UPS to your computer or server using the included USB or Serial cable. Install any recommended software or use your operating system’s power management features to enable automatic shutdowns and notifications.
• 5. Power on the UPS and perform a self-test through the LCD menu or the management software to verify battery readiness and proper outlet protection. Review the LCD readout to confirm load and battery status, then adjust alarm settings if necessary.
