Hi everybody,
I have a new APC UPS (Back-UPS BX950MI-GR). When first plugged in it reported being around 5% charged.
After a day or so it was fully charged and I got a report email saying 'LOWBATT' and 'REPLBATT'.
The in GUI report page showed 100% charge and around 30min of runtime. So it looked okay.
I replugged the USB and the error seemed to have cleared.
I checked the UPS on my pc using APC powerchute. Showed nothing weird, self-test ran without issues.
About a week later (Aug 10th) I get the same 'LOWBATT' and 'REPLBATT' email reports.
I ran a 'upsc ups@localhost' command I found on these forums, which spit out this:
In GUI reporting page still showed 100% charge and around 30min runtime.
Again checked the UPS by connecting it to my pc and doing a self-test in powerchute.
Today (Aug 12th) all of a sudden I get a 'COMMBAD' and continues 'NOCOMM' email reports.
I checked the usb cable, both sides still connected. So I don't know what happened.
Ran another 'upsc'
Other than the output showing the battery being made in 2001. Which I would doubt. Is there anything weird anyone can see?
Anything I should check or do? As the UPS is just over two weeks old, I haven't opened it up incase I get recommended to have it replaced.
Battery is also 'non user servicable'. So I shouldn't be opening it. Not that this would stop me. haha.
Hoping you can help.
Oh, Truenas version number might help? TrueNAS-13.0-RELEASE
