9.
Connect the battery leads. Follow the placement and connections exactly as shown in Figures 5 & 6.
NOTE:
The battery will be
fully charged within 48 hours (maximum). Emergency lamps may or may not light at this time, depending on the battery charge.
10.
Loosen (do not remove) the set screws at the swivel base of the light head assembly. Adjust the lighting fixtures to the desired
position/angle and tighten the set screws.
11.
Check all connections for continuity and grounding integrity.
12.
Reinstall the enclosure cover and securely tighten the four (4) captive screws. To maintain a proper seal, the screws require
1.83 ft.-lb. torque.
13.
Apply AC to the unit. The pilot light should begin to flash.
14.
Activate the diagnostic test by pushing and releasing the push-to-test switch. See “Self-Diagnostic Testing” for further information.
Self-Diagnostic Testing
Features
There are three types of diagnostic monitoring/testing: on-going (constant), periodic (every 30 days), and user-initiated
(push-to-test switch).
• The on-going diagnostic monitors the battery voltage constantly to see if it is in the proper range. Battery failure status will be
displayed when not in the proper range. See “Table 2—Status Indicator Codes” for more information.
• The frequency of the self-diagnostic test is every 30 days (periodic) or approximately 1 second after the push-to-test switch is
pushed and released (user-initiated). The 30-day counter resets to 0 when a power outage is detected or when the push-to-test
switch is activated.
• When the self-test is triggered (by pushing the push-to-test switch), the diagnostic test will not check for light head currents.
The user can visually verify that the lights are working by pressing and holding the push-to-test switch. Any installed light heads
connected to the unit will light to assure the user that the lamps are working.
• During the self-diagnostic test, the LED light head(s) will be turned on for 30 seconds while the push-to-test switch LED flashes ON
and OFF.
• The self-diagnostic test stimulates the load transfer circuit by resetting the AC present detection circuit.
• The push-to-test switch LED will show the status of the emergency light when AC is present. See “Table 2—Status Indicator
Codes” for more information.
• Learn Mode: When the push-to-test switch is activated and the battery has enough capacity to power the light heads, the unit will
detect which light head and how many are installed. This information will be used during the periodic (30-day) diagnostic test.
If the learn mode is successfully performed, the pilot light will flash a number of times equal to the number of light heads detected.
If it is not successfully performed, then the pilot light will just flash indicating charging. You can either wait until the battery is
charged before activating the push-to-test switch or just use the built-in default of one (1) light head minimum.
Parameters
In the AC present state, the following parameters are monitored:
• Battery charge current.
• Battery terminal voltage during charge.
During the periodic (30-day) diagnostic test, the following parameters are tested:
• Battery terminal voltage under load.
• Transfer circuit states.
• Lamp head current.
NOTE:
The installed light heads will be tested if a “Learn Mode” has occurred; otherwise, a minimum of
one (1) working light head is checked.
