power.  

Products 
connected to unit 
malfunction or 
overheat.  

Products connected 
to the power system 
do not accept 
modified sine wave 
form.  

Your application is not compatible with the power 
system

’s modified sine wave output. 

Inadequate run 
time.

  

Power system

’s 

battery is not fully 
charged. 

Charge the battery by leaving the power system plugged 
into a wall outlet at least 15 hours 

As the battery ages, the available run time decreases. 
The internal battery also ages prematurely if the power 
system is installed in a hot environment or not kept in a 
charged condition.  

Error Codes 

If the products connected to the power system do not operate and the alarm is sounding, check the 
unit’s LED screen for an error code.  

Error Code 

Possible Cause 

Solution 

F05 

Low voltage shut-down 
because battery is discharged. 

Recharge battery by plugging the 
AC power cord into a wall outlet.  

F04 

Overload shutdown while 
supplying backup power. The 
AC product(s) connected are 
consuming more than the 
power system

’s continuous 

power rating.  

The AC products connected 
have a surge power that 
exceeds the power system

’s 

surge capability.  

The AC products connected are 
short-circuited 

Use products with a total power 
rating within the power system

’s 

continuous power rating of 1440 W. 

 

 

Use products with a total starting 
surge power within the power 
system

’s capability of 3000 W.  

 

Have the load serviced by a 
qualified technician.  

F03 

High-temperature shut-down 
has occurred. The power 
system has overheated due to 
poor ventilation, excessive 
ambient temperature, or power 
demand beyond the unit’s five-
minute output power capability.  

Disconnect products from the AC 
outlets. Allow the unit to cool for 20 
minutes. Clear blocked fan or 
remove objects covering unit. Move 
the unit to a cooler place. Reduce 
load to less than 1800 W if 
continuous operation is required.  

F01 

Under-voltage warning. The 
battery is nearly discharged.  

Reduce the load to extend run time, 
or recharge battery by plugging the 
AC power cord into a wall outlet 
when back-up power is no longer 
required.  

F02 

Over-Voltage (voltage > 15.5 
+/- 0.3 V) 

Lower the voltage < 15.0 +/- 0.3 V
