APC Smart-UPS turning off by itself?

I have an APC Smart-UPS 3000.

Last Sunday, it turned off by itself. Noone was in the office and noone was logged in at the time it happened.

What could cause this ? I'm concerned it may happen again.

The log show the outputs "has been commanded to shutdown", but does not explain by who or where. Local panel ? Scheduled test ? Remote ? What are the possibilities ?

UPS web interface is password protected. Please see the log here : Most recent event is the sysadmin logging in to check what's up...

Running latest firmware :

If anyone has any idea it'd be much appreciated. Thanks

EDIT: Oct 21 2019, additional info : a few days ago, the UPS went OFFLINE and can no longer be started due to an "inverter fault". So it is possible this type of unexpected shutdown is a sign of a fault within the UPS and I urge anyone running into the same type of trouble to be careful with the unit. I wish APC was providing more detailed diagnostics when it happens.


Interesting, same as mine Smart-UPS SRT 3000 (+3 additional battery packs) switched out outlet group 1 and 2 when battery capacity was 70% without obvious reason.

Network Management Card (NMC) Reports Graceful Shutdown

Another example is when a UPS has a fault condition and goes into failure bypass (where bypass is available). Most Smart-UPS on-line designs, such as SURT and SURTA models, turn off the UPS's battery charger when in failure bypass. As a result, the battery will discharge over time. When the battery hits a low battery condition, the UPS wants to shutdown the UPS's loads as it cannot maintain failure bypass forever (a minimum battery voltage is required to keep the logic power supply on for the on-line Smart-UPS).
