An irregular operation of the UPS is frequently not due to malfunctions, but to simple problems, inconveniences or distractions.
Therefore, the user is advised to consult the table below providing useful information on how to solve the most common
problems.
WARNING: the table below often refers to the use of the maintenance BYPASS. Before restoring the correct
operation of the UPS, make sure that it is switched on and not in STAND-BY.
In case it is in stand-by, turn the UPS on by accessing the "SYSTEM ON" menu, and wait for the start-up sequence
to be completed before removing the maintenance BYPASS.
For further information read carefully the sequence described in the "maintenance BYPASS (SWMB)"
paragraph
NOTE: For the exact meaning of the codes mentioned in the table, please read the "ALARM CODES" section.
