9 - Troubleshooting
Whenever a malfunction occurs, first check external factors (e.g. connections, temperature, humidity or load) to
determine whether the problem is caused by the unit itself or by its environment. Subsequently check whether
the MCB/switches on the rear panel (fig. 12, 7-8-9) are in ‘on’ position. Always check these external factors
before concluding that your UPS is faulty.
The front screen will indicate the problem and solution (if the problem is due to environmental circumstances). If
the solution is not shown on the screen, please contact your dealer.
During the self-test, performed immediately after start-up, the UPS may detect a system failure. In this case a
message is displayed for 30 seconds before the self-test is repeated. If the faulty situation persists, please
contact your dealer.
(One of) the following messages can be displayed:
SELFTEST FAILURE
PCB POWER SUPPLY
One or more voltages of the internal power supply is (are) outside
tolerance. Please contact your dealer
.
An external AC voltage (not the UPSs output voltage) was detected on the
output terminals. Please contact your dealer.
SELFTEST FAILURE
AC ON INPUT
The internal battery fuse is defective. Please contact your dealer.
SELFTEST FAILURE
INT.BATTERY FUSE
The battery extension circuit breaker is in 'the off' position. Please switch it

Malfunction of the battery charger. Please contact your dealer.
SELFTEST FAILURE
EXT.BATTERY FUSE
SELFTEST FAILURE
BATTERY CHARGER
Malfunction of the input circuit: voltage delivered is too high. Please contact
your dealer.
SELFTEST FAILURE
Uic TOO HIGH
The temperature of (one of) the components is (still) too high.
SELFTEST FAILURE
TEMP TOO HIGH
See section 5.3.2.
The battery voltage is too low to allow start-up. Wait for a few hours, leave
the UPS switched on.*
SELFTEST FAILURE
Uba TOO LOW
Malfunction of input circuit: voltage delivered is too low. The batteries may
be faulty or depleted. Wait for a few hours, leave the UPS switched on.*
SELFTEST FAILURE
Uic TOO LOW
Hardware output voltage detection 'Q4' is active.
SELFTEST FAILURE
Q4 NOT OK
* If absence of input power (utility failure, maintenance work) is expected to last longer than a few hours, switch
off the UPS to save battery power. If the UPS input power is absent for several days and the UPS remains on
under no-load conditions, the batteries can be discharged very deeply, resulting in a short battery life time.
