To Next PageTo Next PageWhat to do if the Alarm LED is illuminated and there is a continuous acoustic alarm on my GE UPS?
The alarm LED is illuminated and there is a continuous acoustic alarm because of a UPS failure, UPS over-temperature, or overload at the UPS output. To resolve this, allow the UPS to cool down or reduce the UPS load. If the problem persists, it indicates a UPS failure, and you should contact your UPS dealer or visit www.GEDigitalEnergy.com.
Why is the runtime of my GE GT UPS less than specified?
If the delivered runtime is less than specified for your GE UPS, the battery extension fuse switch may be in the ‘Open’ position, the batteries may not be fully charged, the batteries may be defective or the charger may be defective. First, switch the battery extension fuse to the ‘On’ position. If that doesn't work, charge the batteries for 8 hours and reconfirm the runtime. If the issue persists, contact your UPS dealer, as the batteries or charger may be defective.
What to do if the last load bar LED is lit and there is an intermittent acoustic alarm on my GE GT?
The last load bar LED is lit and there is an intermittent acoustic alarm because of an overload at the UPS output. To resolve this, reduce the UPS load.
How to fix a GE UPS with no display and no alarm?
If there is no display and no alarm on your GE UPS and it is switched off, it could be due to the mains being switched off, no mains voltage being present, or the input fuse being blown or the circuit breaker tripped. First, switch on the mains supply. If that doesn't work, carry out a mains inspection, consulting a qualified electrician if needed. Finally, check the input fuse and replace it or reset the breaker if necessary.
Why is there no communication between my GE UPS and PC?
If there is no communication between the GE UPS and the PC, it could be due to an incorrect communication cable, a defective PC interface or the interface being accessed by another service, or interference on the data cable. First, check whether the correct cable is used. Then, check if no other software is accessing the interface. Finally, rearrange the cables to eliminate any interference.
What does it mean if the mains indicator is not illuminating on my GE GT, but mains voltage is present?
If the mains indicator is not illuminating, but mains voltage is present, and there is an intermittent acoustic alarm, the input fuse may be blown, or the circuit breaker may be tripped. Replace the fuse or reset the breaker.
