Tripp Lite Kiosk - Manual

"Tripp Lite
was the only
company which
offered us a
single-purchase
solution for
ensuring 100% kiosk availability.
Tripp Lite offered us two availability
products for the price of one—a
UPS system and a remote service
monitoring/rebooting application.
We cut the cost of components
protecting kiosk availability in half,
which saved our customers
approximately $130 per kiosk, on
average. With service averaging
$150 per call or ‘truck roll,’
Tripp Lite UPS Systems pay for
themselves by eliminating just one
service call. There's no question
that Tripp Lite provides KIS with
the best combination of superior
price, performance and customer
service."
Don Stark, Vice President of Engineering
Kiosk Information Systems, Inc.
"Tripp Lite's
SmartPro 550
USB WatchDog
System is
the only
single-purchase solution available to
ensure 100% availability by
protecting a kiosk investment from
the two most common causes of
downtime: power failure and
system or service lockup."
Kiosk Magazine, August 2002
"The unofficial theme
of the Spring 2002
N+I conference was
Return to the
Enterprise, with
e-business, storage,
remote access and
security products dominating. Our
editors reviewed dozens of products
at the show and selected these five
to receive Communications News'
Editors' Choice Awards."
Communications News, June 2002
"To keep all these
snazzy kiosks up
and running and
in good shape you
can turn to the SmartPro 550 USB
WatchDog System from Tripp Lite, a
single purchase solution ensuring
100% availability, monitoring and
operating system restart."
Kiosk Business, January/February 2003
"A crash-free
PC may be
impossible,
but you can have a PC that restarts
automatically if it freezes up.
Tripp Lite's WatchDog system works
with several of the company's
uninterruptible power supplies.
WatchDog monitors your OS and
reboots the PC if it stops respond-
ing, ensuring that any critical PCs
you have will remain up and
running while they're unattended."
