INSTALLATION
This unit is designed to be mounted on a wall or ceiling. Provide standard units with a single unswitched supply from a 120VAC, 240VAC,
or 277VAC branch circuit used for normal lighting in the area to be protected. For Spectron® self-testing/self-diagnostic units, provide unit
with a 120VAC or 277VAC branch circuit.
The EZ-2 unit is equipped with intelligent wiring. Connect the black wire from the unit to the
hot building wire (120-277VAC) and the white wire to the neutral building wire.
INSTALLATION
**
Once the EZ-2 model is installed, press and hold the test button
**
for more than 5 seconds to initiate the load learn process.
Operation
“AC ON” LED is illuminated when AC power is present.
NOTE: All models are supplied with an AC Lockout circuit, which prevents the emergency lights
from illuminating when the battery is connected, and no AC power is present.
NOTE: All models are supplied with a Low Voltage Disconnect circuit, which prevents damage to
the battery from deep discharge during prolonged emergency operation.
NOTE: Batteries are often shipped in a discharged state
– this is normal. The battery will require
charging. Allow 24 hours of charging before testing the unit.
Models with SPECTRON® Self-Testing/Self-Diagnostic Circuitry
Models equipped with the Spectron® self-testing/self-diagnostic electronics system provide:
✓
Visual indication of AC power status
✓
Visual indication of self-diagnostic test status and results
Visual indication of any unit malfunctions includes:
✓
Battery Disconnected
✓
Battery Fault
✓
Charger Fault
✓
LED Driver Fault
✓
Lamp Fault
Spectron equipped units also include:
Brownout protection: unit will automatically transfer to emergency operation upon detection of low AC power
(approximately 80% of nominal line).
Time Delay Retransfer: upon return of normal AC power, unit will remain in emergency mode for an additional 15
minutes to allow AC power to stabilize.
A bicolor LED (green/red) is provided on the control
panel of all models equipped with the Spectron® option.
Green Operating Status LED
:
The green Operating Status LED serves as both an AC
power and self-test indicator. During normal operation,
the green Operating Status LED will be illuminated,
indicating the presence of AC power. During all auto-
matic or manual self-test cycles, the green Operating
Status LED will blink twice every second.
Red Service Alert LED
:
Under normal operating conditions, the red Service Alert
LED indicator will remain off. If the Spectron® controller
detects a malfunction, the red Service Alert LED will blink
in the pattern listed in the following table:
Red Status LED Code
