USB Communication Port Note: The USB port may be used to connect your UPS to a
workstation or server. It is used with Tripp Lite software and the included USB cable to
monitor and manage the UPS remotely over a network and to automatically save open
files and shut down equipment during a blackout. See "Optional Connection" for
details. For USB communications, both DIP switches must be in the ON position. This
will disable the RS-232 port.
