Frequently Asked Questions

Can you adjust the alarm settings?

Yes, BE425M's alarm can be adjusted to 3 modes: 1. Full Alarm (Alarm beeps every 30 seconds, then every 1/2 second when on low battery); 2. Quiet Alarm (no alarm until low battery notification); 3. No Alarm while the UPS is 'on battery.' See instructions for more details.

Does a separate battery need to be purchased with this UPS?

No, the BE425M ships in ready-to-use condition. No other purchases are required.

Can I plug my laser printer into a UPS?

Due to the large amount of power used by laser printers, APC does not recommend connecting them to a UPS below 1500VA. If laser printers are connected, it may cause the UPS to transfer to battery repeatedly, exhausting the battery unnecessarily
