Is there a way to turn off the automatic self test? The sound of the clicks in the UPS would wake me up in the middle of the night.

The self test is not the only thing that makes relays click on and off. Your unit might be clicking due to noise on the power line, small voltage fluctuation, small power glitches that you can't even notice with naked eyes, all of this and more can make your unit click, this is a completely normal behaviour.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not sure if the auto self test is happening every 14 days as I don't recall hearing the clicks during the same time of day. Is the schedule always the same time of day every 14 days or at random times every 14 days?

Thank you for your assistance. I will post back here if the auto self test wakes me up again.
