TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The irregular operation of the UPS is very often not due to a malfunction, but to simple problems, inconveniences or
distractions.
Users are advised to consult the following table which provides useful information on how to solve some of the most common
problems.
WARNING: the table below often refers to the use of the maintenance BYPASS. Remember to make sure that the
UPS is powered up and not in STAND BY mode before restoring the correct operation.
If it is in Stand By mode, switch the UPS on, entering the SYSTEM ON menu and wait until the start up sequence
has finished before removing the maintenance BYPASS.
For further details, read the sequence described in the section describing the maintenance BYPASS (SWMB)
very carefully.
NOTE: For the exact meaning of the codes mentioned in the table, please read the "ALARM CODES" section.
