How old is the battery? A continuous beep should mean that your battery is dead or very close to.

If you have a multimeter, you could pull the battery out and check what you get. A 12V lead-acid battery should give you about 12.5V. If you get less than 12V when the battery should be fully charged (the UPS has not had to kick in for 12+ hours) then you almost certainly have either a battery or charging circuitry issue. If you read more than 12.5V, the battery is probably ok and the problem might be in the UPS's battery monitoring circuitry.

While you are in there, you might want to check that the battery terminals are fully inserted and snug-fitting.
