8. System Startup
Visually inspect the installation thoroughly.
After completing the system installation and power system wiring, perform the following startup and test procedure
to ensure proper operation:
8.1 Check System Connections
1. Make sure that the AC input power is switched off, the batteries are disconnected, and all the power modules
are removed from the shelf.
2. Triple-check the polarity of all connections.
8.2 Verify AC and Power the Rectifier Shelf
NOTE:
Insert the first module into the front left most position using the side of the shelf as a
guide. Subsequent modules can be inserted using the previous module as a guide.
Do not force a module into position if it does not seat properly. All modules are keyed to
ensure that the correct module (voltage/polarity) type is used.
1. Install one power module.
a. Place the rectifier module on the shelf bottom and slide the module into the rear connector (inside the shelf).
b. Apply pressure on the module handle to engage the rear connector in the shelf receptacle.
c. Tighten the screw on the bottom of the faceplate to secure the module to the shelf.
2. Verify that the AC input voltage is correct and switch on the corresponding feeder breaker. The power module
AC ON
LED illuminates after a preset start delay. (See 4.1.1 for a description of the LEDs.)
3. Using the controller, test the functionality of various module alarms and controls.
8.3 Triple Check Battery Polarity and Connections
1. Use a voltmeter to verify that the battery polarity is correct. Ensure that no cells or batteries are reversed.
2. Connect the batteries to the output of the system.
3. Install the remaining power modules.
4. In the adjustments menu of the controller, set the float and equalize voltages to the levels specified by the battery
manufacturer.
5. Using the controller, test the functionality of the various module alarms and controls. Perform a load test with the
system using a resistive load box.
6. Enable the temperature compensation (temp comp) feature in the batteries menu. Program the settings for slope
and breakpoints (upper and lower) according to the specific batteries used.
8.4 CXC HP Reset
Use the LCD on the front panel of the optional CXC HP to restart the microprocessor. Click
