LED display "On Line" not lit--BX1500

[Anonymous user]

Hello all,

Brand new to the forum and i have a question. I just bought my 1st UPS yesterday. It is the Back-UPS BX 1500 xs series. Here's the question. Per the instructions, the "On Line" symbol should be lit all the time the unit is plugged in(I think). Mine is not on. The led screen is blank unless I initiate something. I think it's working but not sure. Should the "on line" symbol be lit? How can I test to be sure it's working.

Sorry if these questions are lame or have been asked before but I'd like to know. Thanks in advance for helping.

Hi JonPro,

The model # is BX1500LCD.

Thanks again

John,

I have attached the user manual for this UPS, if you would like to keep the LCD on I suggest that you enable the Full Time LCD display mode and disable the power saving. The guide can be found on page 2 of the user manual.

Here is a screenshot of the guide:
