Possible Cause

Battery test did not run or

was interrupted.

One of the conditions listed in

“Running Automatic Battery

Tests” on page 61 was not

present.

Resolve the condition, then restart the test.

The UPS does not transfer to

Bypass mode.

The bypass utility does not

qualify.

Check the bypass utility. The UPS is receiving

bypass utility power that may be unstable or in

brownout conditions.

Bypass mode is disabled.

Check that the Bypass settings are configured

correctly. See “Settings” on page 48.

UPS on Bypass
(Notice 169)
Intermittent Alarm

The UPS is operating from

Bypass mode.

The equipment transferred to bypass utility

power. Battery mode is not available and your

equipment is not protected; however, the utility

power continues to be passively filtered by the

UPS. Check for one of the following alarms:

overtemperature, overload, or UPS failure.

On Manual Bypass

UPS was manually commanded

to transfer to Bypass mode and

will remain in bypass until

commanded.

Battery Disconnected
(Alarm 199)
Beeping Alarm

The UPS does not recognize the

internal batteries.

If the condition persists, contact your service

representative.

Battery voltage is lower than the

batteries disconnected level

defined for this UPS. This may

be due to a blown fuse,

intermittent battery

connection, or battery cable

being disconnected.

Verify that all batteries are properly connected.

If the condition persists, contact your service

representative.

Low Battery Warning
(Alarm 56)
Beeping Alarm

Battery time remaining or

battery capacity is lower than

the battery low warning level

defined for this UPS.

This warning is approximate. The actual time to

shutdown may vary depending on the UPS load

and presence of an External Battery Module

(EBM).

Low Battery Shutdown
(Alarm 174)

The UPS has exhausted the

battery capacity and shut down.

Resolve the condition that led to shutdown, and

then apply utility power for 48 hours to recharge

the batteries.
