Información adicional

Considerations:

  1. This check is designed to verify charging cycles for the BBU part numbers: '078-000-177-02', '078-000-211-01', '088-000-177-02', '088-000-211-01'
  2. If the alert was present before the failing BBU is replaced, the alert may remain active for an additional 48 hours after the BBU replacement.
  3. An alert is activated if there are eight or more charging cycles within the preceding 48 hours, irrespective of BBU age.
  4. During a power outage, the Battery Backup Unit (BBU) starts to discharge. When power is restored, the node recharges the BBU to its full capacity, which is recorded as one charging cycle. An alert may be issued if there are multiple power outages within a 48-hour window. If this occurs, it is advisable to wait for a continuous 48-hour period without any power interruptions to determine if the alert resolves itself.
