Unplug your UPS from the wall. Disconnect the batteries. Push the on button. LED's may flash. This is how to reset the logic. Connect the batteries and plug back in. Everything should be reset.

Lighting the LED internal fault

apc offer schematics or BOM's
there secret service manuals covers card (PCB) changes and jack names .



if not too old their official service centers can fix it;.
even out of warranty if it has recalls as many do. (smoker it.)

why be here at all and not talking to APC.com DIRECT? WHY be here.
it is their design and they made it in a factory and they do support it why not call them.? first for even ideas...
step 1 is remove batteries and test them on a bench, google how to load test UPS batteries,
I can .

now what they say on their real forum APC.com

"first off they do NOT want you inside (aside from safe battery swaps)
that is simple dead owners never buy new UPS or upgrade ever,"
case in point.
240vac is really 340volts peak and is fully lethal to humans, not Doctor Teflon man (lol)
step one is read your error logs files, using powerchute app free from them.
top fail are batteries bar none we bench test them load tested ask or google it.
step2 is log files to read. never skip this step.

yours is the older 5kw model
a tower?
and newer ones are better.
I guess you are not in the USA, (suffix "I" code )
we have EPA/DOE banning most 10 year old model here, so that is huge problem state side.
230vac line in?

What can you advice me to do? i have a UPS SURTD5000XLI, indicating a red Led light, but when i remove it from the AC power source, the Red Led also remove & when i flog it again to the AC Source it...

Is red light on for overload or for battery?
If on overload, try reducing the load on the UPS. If red light on overload persists buy a new UPS (overload fault hard to repair).

Red light on battery - replace the batteries.

Red light on boost or buck, may mean that the nominal voltage of ups and the limits need to be changed/corrected.

SURTD5000XLI

RTM the manuals at APC.com
are all there
just read it , be brave crack a book as my dad said and USA military (all)
RTFM then.
I guess you lost the AC power cord?
just buy it like this DOA or?
i see page 2
showing how to connect it.
but the cable is not the same on all countries
things that matter are would wide and your secret not told
is power voltage there
and what connectors or connection type needed, direct wired
or plug-in and what plugs you use in your country.

manual words pg1
Configurable for 220 : 230 or 240 nominal output voltage?????
Output Frequency (sync to mains)50/60 Hz +/- 3 Hz user adjustable +/- 0.1??????

Nominal Input Voltage230V?????
XLI (the I means international version as in not for USA)
is that you 12,000- miles from USA< not told
no clues at all locations not even a country.
the manual said this day 1 new
so you did lose the the cable.

3000 VA XLI models: two output power cords,
two input power cords
page 5
Wiring must be performed by a qualified electrician.
are you, ? the first page shows connecting 1 of 2 cables supplied
the other and is done by the electrician.
