Problem Possible Cause Solution
The UPB50 is not charging the
notebook when the AC adapter is
connected to the UPB50.
Notebook AC adapter output
voltage does not match the output
voltage setting on the output
voltage selector switch.
Check the voltage rating from the system label on the notebook or
power adapter. Slide the output voltage selector switch to the
corresponding voltage. Press the Status button for 1~3 seconds and
then release. The LED indicators will illuminate and the battery will
resume power output.
The UPB50 has automatically shut
down due to abnormally high
temperature.
Remove the UPB50 from the enclosed area, and let it cool for a few
minutes. Press the Status button for 1~3 second(s) and then release.
The unit will recover from thermal protection mode.
The notebook being used is
drawing more than 70W from the
UPB50.
The UPB50 is designed to deliver 70 Watts of continuous output
power. Perform one of the following to resume the UPB50 power
output:
1. Fully charge the notebook internal battery using the adapter
provided with the notebook; connect the UPB50 to the notebook.
OR:
2. Change the power settings on the notebook to conserve battery
power.
When not connected to a
notebook computer, UPB50 does
not provide power (LED indicators
do not illuminate).
When the UPB50 has been stored
or has not been connected to a
notebook computer for 15 minutes
or more, it will enter Sleep Mode
status.
Press the Status button for 1~3 second(s) and then release. The
Status indicators will illuminate and the battery will resume power
output. If no indicators are lit, charge the UPB50.
I. Recycling, Storage, and Battery Life
The UPB50 should be disposed of properly. Please do not incinerate or dispose of in trash receptacles. For more information about APC's
battery recycling program, visit: mobilecomputing.apc.com.
For best results, do not store the UPB50 where there is excessive heat or cold, as such environments can damage the battery pack and reduce
battery life. If storing the UPB50 for an extended period, completely discharge and recharge the unit before the next use.
To completely discharge: Attach the UPB50 to a notebook and wait until all LED indicators are off during use.
To completely charge: Attach any compatible notebook power adapter to the UPB50 and continue charging it until all Status indicators are
extinguished.
For best results, the UPB50 should be completely discharged and recharged once every 3 months. This will condition the cells inside the battery
and ensure the UPB50 delivers the most capacity available.
