Instructions for Self-Test/Self-Diagnostics

Once the unit is properly installed in accordance with the installation instructions and AC power is supplied to the unit, the 

dual color (SDT STATUS) LED indicator will illuminate, followed by the amber (INV ON) LED indicator. The dual color LED 

indicates the unit’s status. A steady GREEN LED indicates normal service; A blinking GREEN/RED LED indicates the 

battery is charging; A BLINKING RED LED (in different combinations) indicates a service alert. Refer to Table 3 below for 

details. During loss of normal utility power, the dual color LED will not be illuminated. The AMBER (INV ON) LED indicator 

will be illuminated only during inverter operation initiated by the loss of utility power or during any manual or automatic 

self-test.

Self-Diagnostic Service

The self-diagnostic function is factory preset and performs the following:

1. Monitoring of battery, battery charger, and connected loads.

2. Self-testing and a (30) second battery discharge once every (30) days, after normal utility power has been supplied for 

a minimum of (96) hours.

3. Self-testing and a (30) minute battery discharge once every (180) days, after normal utility power has been supplied for 

a minimum of (96) hours.

4. Self-testing and a (90) minute battery discharge once every (365) days, after normal utility power has been supplied for 

a minimum of (96) hours.
