If the input circuit breaker on your GE UPS has tripped, it could be due to a UPS overload. Try reducing the load and then reset the breaker. If the issue persists, it may indicate a system failure.
What to do if the overload LED is lit and the buzzer is sounding continuously on my GE Digital Energy GT?
If the overload LED is illuminated and the buzzer is continuously sounding on your GE UPS, it indicates that the UPS is overloaded. Reduce the load by unplugging non-critical devices.
Why won't my GE Digital Energy GT turn on?
If your GE UPS won't switch on, several factors could be the cause. First, ensure the line cord is properly connected. Second, verify that the wall socket is functional and the mains voltage is within acceptable limits. Third, check if the input circuit breaker has tripped and reset it if necessary, making sure the UPS isn't overloaded. Fourth, the battery voltage might be too low, so allow the UPS to recharge the battery.
What to do if my GE UPS has no output?
If your GE UPS has no output, it could be due to several reasons. The UPS may be over-temperature, in which case you should allow it to cool down. Alternatively, there may be a utility failure and the battery is depleted, so you should wait until utility power returns. Finally, the input breaker may have tripped; refer to the instructions above for a tripped breaker.
What does it mean when the 'Battery low' LED is lit and the buzzer beeps twice per second on my GE Digital Energy GT UPS?
When the 'Battery low' LED lights up and the buzzer beeps twice per second on your GE UPS, it means the battery is close to being exhausted during a utility failure. The UPS output will soon be lost, so you should shut down the load in an orderly manner.
Why is my GE Digital Energy GT UPS buzzer sounding continuously due to over-temperature?
If your GE UPS buzzer is sounding continuously due to over-temperature, it could be because the ambient temperature is too high, or the ventilation is blocked. Try to reduce the ambient temperature and enhance ventilation. It could also be due to fan failure, in which case you should have the fan replaced.
What should I do if the 'Replace battery' LED lights up and the buzzer sounds continuously on my GE Digital Energy GT?
If the 'Replace battery' LED lights up and the buzzer sounds continuously on your GE UPS, it could be a 'false alarm' if the battery test occurred just after a utility failure. Allow the UPS to recharge the battery for approximately 8 hours, then repeat the battery test. If the alarm persists, it may indicate that the battery is close to being worn out, and you should consider replacing it after allowing the UPS to recharge for 8 hours and performing another battery test.
Why can't I link my GE UPS to my computer?
If you cannot link your GE UPS to your computer, the communication cable may be defective, so check the cable. Alternatively, there may be a transmitting rate fault, so adjust the transmitting rate. Finally, the communication port may be faulty, so check the COM1/COM2 configuration of the computer.
What does it mean when the 'Fault' LED flashes on my GE Digital Energy GT?
If the 'Fault' LED is flashing on your GE UPS, it indicates a wiring fault, specifically that the L-N (Line-Neutral) wires are reversed. You should have the site wiring checked by a qualified electrician.
