Operation
Turning off the RG Battery Backup
Turn switch to OFF position. The “On A/C” LED light should turn off.
To Silence Audible Alarm
Turn mute switch to ON (down) position.
To Conduct a Self-Test
Use the self-test to verify both the operation of the RG Battery Backup
and the condition of the battery. Turn the mute switch ON and OFF
(down and up), then ON and OFF (down and up) again within five seconds.
The RG Battery Backup automatically conducts a self-test every 21 days.
NOTE: During the self-test, the RG Battery Backup briefly operates on
battery-backup power. The “Testing Battery” LED will flash for five
minutes during the test period. If the RG Battery Backup passes the
self-test, it returns to normal operation on A/C, and the green “On A/C”
LED light is lit.
If the green “Testing Battery” LED does not flash when the self-test is
conducted, it is likely that the battery voltage is low. This could
happen immediately following installation, during the recharging period
following a power failure, or during “On Battery” mode. This is
normal. Wait until the battery fully recharges (18 hours) before re-
initiating the self-test.
If the RG Battery Backup fails the self-test, it immediately returns to
normal operation on A/C and lights the “Replace Battery” LED. The
operation of the RG is not affected. Fully recharge the battery (18
hours) and perform the self-test again. If the “Replace Battery” LED is
still on, the battery needs to be replaced.
