EMERGENCY DRIVER

Refer to the diagram below for the appropriate wiring of the LED load and driver. Install in accordance with the National Electrical 

Code and local regulations. For additional wiring diagrams consult Customer Service.

Automatic Testing

The 

ILBDW 

is designed to automatically test the emergency 

function for 60 seconds each month, and  

90 minutes every 12 months.

Self-testing works in conjunction with the IPS assembly. Any 

detected failures will be indicated by flashing of the three-color 

LED. See Table A for diagnosis.

Manual Testing

Manual testing of the 

ILBDW 

can be performed by pressing 

and releasing the IPS test button. Only initiate a manual test 

when the IPS status indicator light is GREEN (see 

Table A

). 

Manual testing lasts 60 seconds and may be cancelled at any 

time during the test duration by pressing and holding  

the IPS.

Load Calibration

To ensure proper operation, Load Calibration is required whenever the LED load connected to the ILBDW is changed. 

Note: 

Load Calibration happens automatically 48 hours after the ILBDW is first installed. 

If after installation,

 

the connected LED 

load is changed

Load Calibration will need to be performed

. This will happen 

automatically 

48 hours after the ILBDW is 

re-initialized (see Maintenance section below). To 

manually 

initiate Load Calibration earlier, press and hold the IPS button for 

20 seconds. After 20 seconds, the LED load will turn off. Release the IPS button. The LED load should turn back on and the IPS 

will begin FLASHING GREEN to indicate that the 60-second Load Calibration is commencing. Any failures detected during Load 

Calibration will be indicated on the IPS (see 

Table A

).

“Written records of testing shall be kept by the owner for inspection by the authority having jurisdiction.”

SERVICING SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

Maintenance

When performing maintenance on the 

ILBDW or the emergency luminaire

, the 

ILBDW 

battery circuit must be completely pow-

ered down by performing the following steps:

1) Disconnect AC power. 

The ILBDW will enter EMERGENCY MODE.

2) Disconnect the battery circuit through one of the following methods:

Method 1: 

This can only be performed within the first 30 seconds of EMERGENCY Mode -

 

Press and hold the IPS button for 

approximately five seconds until the LED Module shuts off.

 

Method 2 (“S” Models Only): 

Unplug the IPS

Once all power sources are disconnected from the 

ILBDW 

and 

emergency luminaire

, proceed with required maintenance.

When 

maintenance is complete

, reconnect the IPS (if unplugged from Method 2 above) and restore AC power to the emer-

gency luminaire. The AC Activate circuitry will detect the presence of AC power and automatically re-activate the 

ILBDW

 battery 

charging circuit.
