TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem Possible Cause Corrective Action

Back-UPS will not switch on. Back-UPS not connected to AC power source. Ensure the Back-UPS is securely connected to an AC outlet.

Back-UPS circuit breaker “tripped”. Disconnect non-essential equipment from the Back-UPS. Reset

(push in) the rear panel circuit breaker. Switch on the Back-UPS

and plug in devices one at a time. If the circuit breaker trips

again, disconnect the device that caused the breaker to trip.

Utility input voltage quality is out of range. Consider adjusting the transfer voltage and sensitivity. See

Transfer Voltage and Sensitivity Adjustment.

Back-UPS does not power

essential equipment during an

outage.

Equipment plugged into a Surge Only outlet. Unplug device from 'Surge Only' outlet and move to a 'Battery

Backup' outlet.

Back-UPS operates on battery

although utility power exists.

Back-UPS circuit breaker “tripped”. Disconnect non-essential equipment from the Back-UPS. Reset

(push in) the rear panel circuit breaker. Switch the Back-UPS on

and plug equipment in one-at-a-time. If the circuit breaker trips

again, disconnect the device that caused the breaker to trip.

Utility input voltage quality is out of range. Consider adjusting the transfer voltage and sensitivity. See

Transfer Voltage and Sensitivity Adjustment.

Back-UPS does not provide

expected backup time.

Back-UPS is heavily loaded. Unplug non-essential equipment (printers, scanners, etc) from

the Battery Backup outlets and plug into 'Surge Only' outlets.

Back-UPS battery cartridge is discharged due to

recent power outage and has not had time to

recharge.

Charge the battery cartridge for 8 hours. Back-UPS runtime is

reduced until the battery cartridge is fully charged.

Battery has reached the end of its life. Replace battery cartridge (see Order Replacement Battery

Cartridge).

Red Replace Battery indicator is

flashing. Green On Line indicator

is on.

Internal battery cartridge is not connected. Connect battery cartridge (see Connect Battery Cartridge).

Red Replace Battery indicator is

on.

Battery has reached the end of its life. Replace the battery cartridge (see Order Replacement Battery

Cartridge).

Red Overload indicator is on or

flashing.

Connected equipment is drawing more power than

the Back-UPS can provide.

Move one or more equipment power plugs from Battery Backup

outlets to Surge Only outlets.

Green On Line indicator is on and

all other front panel indicators are

flashing.

Internal UPS fault. Contact APC Technical Support (see Contact Information).

SERVICE

If the Back-UPS arrived damaged, notify the carrier.

If the Back-UPS requires service, do not return it to the dealer. The following

steps should be taken:

1. Consult the Troubleshooting section to eliminate common problems.

2. If the problem persists, go to http://www.apc.com/support/.

3. If the problem still persists, contact APC Technical Support.

• Have the Back-UPS model number, serial number and date of purchase

available. Be prepared to troubleshoot the problem with an APC Technical

Support representative. If this is not successful, APC will issue a Return

Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number and a shipping address.

LIMITED WARRANTY

The standard warranty is two (2) years from the date of purchase. APC’s standard

procedure is to replace the original unit with a factory reconditioned unit. Customers

who must have the original unit back due to the assignment of asset tags and set

depreciation schedules must declare such a need at first contact with an APC Technical

Support representative. APC will ship the replacement unit once the defective unit has

been received by the repair department, or cross-ship upon the receipt of a valid credit

card number. The customer pays for shipping the unit to APC. APC pays ground

freight transportation costs to ship the replacement unit to the customer.

In situations where the Back-UPS or connected equipment appears too sensitive to

input voltage, it may be necessary to adjust the transfer voltage. This is a simple task

requiring use of the front panel pushbutton. To adjust the transfer voltage, proceed as

follows:

1. Plug the Back-UPS into the utility power source. The Back-UPS will be in a

Standby Mode (no indicators lit).

2. Press the front panel pushbutton fully inward for 10 seconds. All indicators on the

Back-UPS will flash to acknowledge going into Programming Mode.

3. The Back-UPS will then indicate its current Sensitivity Setting, as shown in the

following table.

4. To select the Low Sensitivity setting, press the pushbutton until the yellow

indicator is flashing.

5. To select the Medium Sensitivity setting, press the pushbutton until the yellow

and red indicators (second and third from the top) are flashing.

6. To select the High Sensitivity setting, press the pushbutton until yellow and both

red indicators (bottom three) are flashing.

7. To exit without changing the Sensitivity Setting, press the pushbutton until the

green indicator is flashing.

8. Once in Programming Mode, if the pushbutton is not pressed within 5 seconds,

the Back-UPS will exit Programming Mode; all indicators will extinguish.
