Remedy 

No indication and alarm even though 
the main is normal.   

The AC input power is not 

connected properly. 

Check if input power cord 

firmly connected to the mains. 

The AC input is connected to 

the UPS output. 

Plug AC input power cord to 

AC input correctly. 

The icon

180° and then connect to UPS 

system. 

The icon 

and 

  flashing on 

LCD display and alarm is sounding 
every second. 

The external or internal 

battery is incorrectly 

connected. 

Check if all batteries are 

connected properly. 

Fault code is shown as 27 and the 

icon 

  is lighting on LCD display 

and alarm is continuously sounding. 

Battery voltage is too high or 

the charger is at fault. 

Contact the manufacturer. 

Fault code is shown as 28 and the 

icon 

  is lighting on LCD display 

and alarm is continuously sounding.

is flashing on 

LCD display and alarm is sounding 
twice every second. 

UPS is overloaded 

Remove excess loads from 

UPS output. 

UPS is overloaded. Devices 

connected to the UPS are fed 

directly by the electrical 

network via the Bypass. 

Remove excess loads from 

UPS output. 

After repetitive overloads, the 

UPS is locked in the Bypass 

mode. Connected devices are 

fed directly by the mains. 

Remove excess loads from 

UPS output first. Then shut 

down the UPS and restart it. 

Fault code is shown as 43 and The

Fault code is shown as 01, 02, 03, 04, 
11, 12, 13 and 41 on LCD display and 
alarm is continuously sounding. 

A UPS internal fault has 
occurred. There are two 

possible results: 

1. The load is still supplied, 

but directly from AC power via 

bypass. 

2. The load is no longer 

supplied by power.
