Yes, I had this same behavior with my Back-Ups Pro 1100's of 1980-90 vintage.
How old are the batteries in the unit? If they are >3 years old they are
probably
toast. Once I changed out my batteries, my APC's are back online 24/7.
If fact, I have one 1100 that has started failing this same way yet again
after
only ~2 years on new batteries, so it seems I bought a sour pair.
Best,
Duncan

Hello HWG,
I searched the APC FAQ and knowledge base to no avail, so I am hoping
to find the answer here. The unit has been in service a long time, I
love it and have many of them in use. Never seen this before until
now, basically the UPS just shuts down on it's own. It is being
monitored with Powerchute software but there are NO automations in
place for it to shutdown the UPS unit or even systems for that matter.
It just monitors the power and logs it all for me. I have cleared logs
and double checked to make sure something isn't telling it to shutdown
the unit. Since I am not perfect nor is software, I am going to
terminate that connection (DB9 serial) to help rule that out. It's
been in use awhile and I am hoping it's not going out on me.
Ideas?
