Press the button once to power the UPS and the connected equipment. Check that the power cable from the UPS to the utility power supply is securely connected at both ends. Check the utility power supply to the UPS by plugging in a table lamp. If the light is very dim, have the utility voltage checked. Do not attempt to use the UPS. Unplug the UPS and have it serviced immediately. The UPS is protecting the connected equipment. Batteries require recharging after extended outages. If the battery is near the end of its service life, consider replacing the battery even if the replace battery LED is not yet lit.

Turn the UPS off and have it serviced immediately. The UPS will restart automatically when utility power returns. The UPS will return to normal operation when the power is restored battery is discharged from an and the battery has a sufficient charge.

The connected equipment exceeds the specified maximum load as defined in Specifications at the APC web site, www. The alarm remains on until the overload is removed. Disconnect nonessential equipment from the UPS to eliminate the overload. The UPS continues to supply power as long as it is online and the circuit breaker does not trip; the UPS will not provide power from batteries in the event of a utility voltage interruption.

If a continuous overload occurs while the UPS is on battery, the unit turns off output in order to protect the UPS from possible damage. Weak battery. Failure of a battery self-test. Allow the battery to recharge for 24 hours. Then, perform a self-test. If the problem persists after recharging, replace the battery. The UPS repeats the alarm every five hours. Perform the selftest procedure after the battery has charged for 24 hours to confirm the replace battery condition.

The alarm stops and the LED clears if the battery passes the self-test. Wiring The site wiring LED is lit faults detected include missing ground, hot-neutral polarity reversal, and rear panel.
