INSTALLATION 

Airflow is vital to the performance of this product.

Install with AT LEAST 12" (30cm / 300mm) clear space on both ends and do not block ventilation holes.

1.  Extend un-switched 24-hour AC supply of rated voltage to the unit, installed in accordance with all applicable codes 

and standards. This circuit should NOT be energized/live at the time.

2.  Unscrew the cover screws (4 pcs) on the sides of the unit. Lift and remove the front cover 

.  

 

3.  Knockouts are stamped into both sides of the cabinet. Knock out the appropriate hole(s) and bring wires through 

them into the cabinet. 

4.  Mount the unit securely into place. This unit is 

FLOOR MOUNT ONLY!

5.  Make proper wiring connections for the AC supply and output loads to the terminal blocks within the unit 

 (see 

AC 

WIRING DIAGRAM

, page 2).          

   

6.  Batteries are shipped separately. Install batteries into the cabinet and complete the appropriate connection:  

Red wire to positive battery terminal (+) and Black wire to negative battery terminal (-). 

7.  Route wires and secure in place. 
8.  Select Load Operation Mode (N-ON / N-OFF) from the internal toggle switch 

.

9.  Replace cover and secure with cover screws 

10.  Turn on AC line voltage supply.

Wall Switch Option:

The feature of optional wall switch connection is to allow the normally-on lamp loads to become switchable by a standard 
wall switch. Conversely, the system will by-pass the wall switch during emergency mode to provide full output to all 
lighting loads in its circuit. 
Maximum number of wall switch outputs per system is two.
Maximum number of breakers per system is four. 

UNIT RESET

1.  Disconnect AC input, disconnect batteries from inverter, disconnect load.
2.  Wait 10 seconds; measure battery voltage during wait period to verify condition.
3.  Reconnect batteries, and then reconnect AC input.
4.  If unit turns ON with no error notifications, turn OFF unit with power button and reconnect lighting load.
5.  Turn on AC to verify system operates normally.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problems

Reasons

Solutions

No AC output voltage 

during emergency

Surge (or inrush) of lighting load exceeds 

inverter’s maximum, causing unit shutdown

•  Reduce number of connected lighting 

fixtures, or replace with lower-surge 

fixtures

•  Reset unit

No AC output voltage,  

with AC input present  

(N-ON mode only)

Lighting load exceeds inverter’s maximum 

capacity, causing unit shutdown

•  Reduce number of connected lighting 

fixtures

•  Reset unit

Short-circuit, causing AC output circuit 

breaker to trip

•  Locate and clear short-circuit
•  Reset circuit breaker located on inverter 

box inside the unit enclosure

Unit does not turn ON,  

with AC input present

Battery voltage is lower than acceptable 

threshold

•  Disconnect battery and recharge by 

separate means; battery may need 

replacement

Battery is not connected to inverter box

•  Connect 12V battery terminals to 

inverter

Unit does not last up to  

required emergency 

duration

Battery is not fully charged

•  Allow battery recharge for up to 24 

hours

Lighting load exceeds unit rating

•  Reduce number of connected lighting 

fixtures to below unit power rating

Batteries are defective, or aging

•  Replace batteries
