The "Life Cycle Monitoring" function provides UPS maintenance advice to guarantee installation availability for the user.

The display gives 3 messages enabling the following to be identified:

-The end of the contractual legal warranty: "End of warranty check recommended".

-Regular maintenance requirements and the end of service life for consumable components: "Technical check recommended".

-The end of the battery service life: "Battery check required".

In addition to these messages, the minor fault LED (32) lights up and the buzzer sounds.

These messages can be deleted by pressing the function key (35). This also causes LED (32), to go out, the buzzer to stop and the removal of the "Global Alarm" remote signalling.

To completely disable LCM indications, use the display to enter the password required to disable the function.
