CHECK BUILDING WIRING
FAULT INDICATOR
If the rear panel Building Wiring Fault (red) indicator is lit, a potential shock hazard exists due to one of the following conditions:
• Open or high resistance ground
• Hot or neutral polarity reversed
• Overloaded neutral circuit
Improper building wiring should be corrected by a qualified electrician. Do not use the Back-UPS until the condition that caused the fault is corrected.
Note: Improper building wiring will not prevent the Back-UPS from operating, but it will limit its protection capability.

STATUS INDICATORS AND ALARMS
There are four status indicators (lights) on the front panel of the Back-UPS (On Line, On Battery, Overload, and Replace Battery).
On Battery (yellow) - is lit whenever the battery of the Back-UPS is powering equipment connected to the
Battery Backup Outlets.
The Back-UPS features a transient voltage surge-suppression (TVSS) screw for connecting the ground lead on additional surge suppression devices such as network and data line surge protectors.

Four Beeps Every 30 Seconds - this alarm is sounded whenever the Back-UPS is running On
Battery. Consider saving work in progress.
Continuous Beeping - this alarm is sounded whenever a low battery condition is reached.
Battery run-time is very low. Promptly save any work in progress and exit all open applications.
Shutdown the operating system, computer and the Back-UPS.
TVSS GND
On Line (green) - is lit whenever utility power is powering the Battery Backup outlets.
Overload (red) - is lit whenever power demand has exceeded the capacity of the Back-UPS.
Continuous Tone - this alarm is sounded whenever the Battery Backup outlets are overloaded.
Circuit Breaker - the circuit breaker button located on the rear panel of the Back-UPS will stick out if an overload condition forces the Back-
UPS to disconnect itself from utility power. If the button sticks out, disconnect non-essential equipment. Reset the circuit breaker by pushing the button inward.
Replace Battery (red) - is lit whenever the battery is near the end of its useful life, or if the battery is not connected (see above). A battery that is near the end of its useful life has insufficient run-time and should be replaced.
Chirps for 1 Minute Every 5 Hours - this alarm is sounded whenever the battery has failed the automatic diagnostic test.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem
Back-UPS will not switch on.
Possible Cause
Back-UPS not connected to AC power source.
Back-UPS circuit breaker “tripped”.
Utility input voltage quality is out of range.
Corrective Action
Ensure the Back-UPS is securely connected to an AC outlet.
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.
Consider adjusting the transfer voltage and sensitivity. See
Transfer Voltage and Sensitivity Adjustment.
Connect battery cartridge (see Connect Battery Cartridge).
Unplug device from 'Surge Only' outlet and move to a 'Battery
Backup' outlet.
Back-UPS does not power essential equipment during an outage.
Back-UPS operates on battery although utility power exists.
Back-UPS does not provide expected backup time.
Internal battery cartridge is not connected.
Equipment plugged into a Surge Only outlet.
Back-UPS circuit breaker “tripped”.
Utility input voltage quality is out of range.
Back-UPS is heavily loaded.
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.
Consider adjusting the transfer voltage and sensitivity. See
Transfer Voltage and Sensitivity Adjustment.
Unplug non-essential equipment (printers, scanners, etc) from the Battery Backup outlets and plug into 'Surge Only' outlets.
Charge the battery cartridge for 8 hours. Back-UPS runtime is reduced until the battery cartridge is fully charged.
Back-UPS battery cartridge is discharged due to recent power outage and has not had time to recharge.
Battery has reached the end of its life.
Red Replace Battery indicator is flashing. Green On Line indicator is on.
Red Replace Battery indicator is on.
Red Overload indicator is on or flashing.
Green On Line indicator is on and all other front panel indicators are flashing.
Internal battery cartridge is not connected.
Battery has reached the end of its life.
Connected equipment is drawing more power than the Back-UPS can provide.
Internal UPS fault.
Replace battery cartridge (see Order Replacement Battery
Cartridge).
Connect battery cartridge (see Connect Battery Cartridge).
Replace the battery cartridge (see Order Replacement Battery
Cartridge).
Move one or more equipment power plugs from Battery Backup outlets to Surge Only outlets.
Contact APC Technical Support (see Contact Information).
ORDER REPLACEMENT BATTERY CARTRIDGE
The battery cartridge typically lasts 3-6 years, shorter if subjected to frequent outages or elevated temperatures. Order part number RBC32.
Please recycle spent battery cartridges.

TRANSFER VOLTAGE AND SENSITIVITY
ADJUSTMENT
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.
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.
4.
