APC Easy UPS BVX Series 650 VA: beeping at random times

eslhere08 · ‎2022-09-19

I purchased 1 Easy UPS BVX Series 650 VA a month ago for my work-from-home setup to help me with my work during sudden power outages. My Internet modem is plugged in, and the UPS itself is plugged into AC all the time. I only turn the UPS off on weekends to rest but it is still plugged in. However, I noticed at random times that the UPS would beep once or twice even with the power on. So far, I have heard the beeping twice(last, last week, and just tonight) but that's that. I always check the temperature of the entire device and I make sure it's plugged properly. Is it normal or am I doing something wrong?

I also tested if the UPS was working without the power and it was normal ( 4 beeps every 30 seconds) meaning the UPS is supplying battery power.

Feedback and advice would be appreciated.

Hi @eslhere08

Thank you for reaching out to the SE Community, my name is Jon and I will assist you with this query. Apologies for the inconvenience this has caused you, will you be able to provide the model number of the UPS and the beep pattern that it emits?

Hello, @JonPro !
Thank you for your comment. The model number of my device is BVX650I-PH 9B2211A10016. The beep pattern is irregular, for instance, it happens once a day and beeps for 1- 2 times. Again, it doesn't happen much. Could it be beeping when there's a fluctuation in the electricity? I've continued to monitor this as I keep my UPS always plugged in and on, but so far no beeps have occurred, except when there's a power outage.
