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.

Note: Allow the Back-UPS to charge for a full
eight (8) hours prior to use.

• When Self-Test has successfully completed,
only the green On Line indicator will be lit.

Press the front panel Power ON/OFF switch and
observe that the following events occur after
pressing and releasing the switch:

• If the internal battery cartridge is not
connected (see Step 2 above), the green On
Line indicator and red Replace Battery
indicators will light. The Back-UPS will also
emit a chirping sound.

• The green On Line indicator flashes.
• The yellow On Battery indicator lights while
a Self-Test is being performed.

On Line (green) - is lit whenever utility power is
powering the Battery Backup outlets.

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.

Circuit Breaker - the circuit breaker button
located on the rear panel of the Back-UPS will
stick out if an overload condition forces the BackUPS 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.

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.

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.

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.
2.
3.

Consult the Troubleshooting section to eliminate common problems.
If the problem persists, go to http://www.apc.com/support/.
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.
