7.0Troubleshooting Procedures

Faults are those abnormal conditions that can occur and cause the unit to shutdown normal operation. The faults are detected by the protection circuitry (see System Protection Features Section 5.2) in the unit. The UPS “Fault” lamp will light red. "Troubleshooting" involves monitoring the bar graph lamps on the front panel and then interpreting the readout by using the fault mode display charts.

7.1Non-Fatal Fault Mode

Non-fatal faults may or may not cause the unit to shut down. These faults normally will cause the UPS to transfer to bypass mode. Use "System Restart" procedures (see Section 5.10) to transfer the UPS back to “On Line” mode. Use the following chart to decode the display. All non-fatal faults will cause the red “Fault” LED to flash.
