Low Battery Warning

The red “LOW BATTERY WARNING” LED precedes “LOW BATTERY

SHUTDOWN” by 2 to 5 minutes and indicates that the batteries can no longer
support the load. Immediate steps should be taken to begin an orderly system
shutdown. From LOW BATTERY WARNING, it may take several hours to
fully recharge the batteries.

Low Battery Shutdown

The “LOW BATTERY SHUTDOWN” LED indicates that the UPS has

shut itself down to prevent over-discharge damage to the batteries. In critical
applications, an additional power source (such as a generator) should be used
until utility line power returns.

Test

The yellow “TEST” LED indicates that the UPS is simulating a LINE

FAILURE to self-test the backup capabilities of the unit. If, during the one
minute test, the UPS fails to supply backup power, it resumes LINE
PRESENT operation without interruption to the load and lights the “SERVICE”
LED.

Service

The “SERVICE” LED indicates that the UPS is no longer able to provide

backup power to the load and that service is required. Consult the manual's
troubleshooting section or contact your authorized Alpha service center.
