SOLUTION

 

 

CAUSE

 

 

 

THE OVERLOAD LED IS LIT AND THE UPS EMITS A SUSTAINED ALARM TONE

The UPS is overloaded.

 

 

The connected equipment exceeds the specified “maximum load” as de-

 

 

 

 

 

 

fined in Specifications at the APC web site, www.apc.com.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The alarm remains on until the overload is removed. Disconnect nonessen-

 

 

 

 

 

 

tial 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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

THE REPLACE BATTERY LED IS LIT

Allow the battery to recharge for 24 hours. Then, perform a self-test. If the

 

 

 

 

 

 

problem persists after recharging, replace the battery.

The UPS emits short beeps for one minute and the replace battery LED

 

 

 

 

 

 

illuminates. The UPS repeats the alarm every five hours. Perform the self-

 

 

 

 

 

 

test procedure after the battery has charged for 24 hours to confirm the

 

 

 

 

 

 

replace battery condition. The alarm stops and the LED clears if the bat-

 

 

 

 

 

 

tery passes the self-test.
