Victron energy inverter battery querie?

Ive inherited this inverter multiplus compact 12v 1200 va 50 amp which supplies power to my back up battery on my submersable pumps in my basement

we had a power cut and the back up didnt cut in and it was flashing red on the inverter, its now flashing orange on the charger light

can anyone tell me what i need to do to get it to charge my battery if the power goes off again im confused as to what lights should be on/flashing and do i use the charger only switch at anytime

Hi @Andy T. That does sound like the battery is shot, can you get a multimeter and check the battery voltage whilst simulating a power failure?
