Technical datasheet HFX and HFXE T8_10
4.4 Operation HFXE
Setting of 1.5h and 3h operation is selected by connection of Charging Indicator (LED) to terminals 5, 6 and 7 as described in table below.
For manual operation (no selftest) a single colour LED is used,
For a Selftest operation a bidirectional LED is used (RED / GREEN) connected such that OK = GREEN. For connection of the bicoulor LED the green
coloured LED is refered to as Anode and Cathode
TEST :
NOTE : A full test should not be activated when the battery is empty or low capacity - this could result in a wrong error-message.
A test is activated manually, as a selftest or by connection of a test-switch.
Manual test:
By disconnecting the mains when the battery has been charged for a minimum of 24 hours.
Status of the test must be observed manually.
Self test:
By using a Bipolar LED connected to the 2 of the 3 pins 5, 6 or 7 as shown above, then a self
test will be performed. This test will automatically run a short Monthly test and one Full Annual test operating the Emergency Lamp (LAMP 1) from the battery.
The test sequence will follow the requirement given in the standard IEC62034 2006-05
“Automatic test systems for battery powered emergency escape lighting”.
Indicator LED
System status
Action
Continuous green
System ok
Battery charging ok and no faults apparent.
Continuous blinking red
Battery capacity problem
24 h charge periode after last discharge not completed, or faulty battery. Restest
system after 24h charging period, or replace battery
Intermittent blinking red
Faulty lamp
Faulty or missing lamp. Replace lamp. Lower lamp power in emergency mode may
cause lamp-fault detection on functioning lamp. Fluorescent lamps are sensitive to
lower ambient temperatures.
Continuous red
Charging error
Battery defective or missing. Connect or replace battery.
