INSTALLATION
CAUTION:
Do not locate Test Switch/Pilot Light
c
or route cable within
1” of fixture lamps.
NOTE:

NOTE:
Allow battery to charge 24 hours before initial testing
and 72 hours to fully charge battery.
NOTE:
Emergency lighting systems should be tested as often
as local codes require, or at least quarterly to insure that all
components are operational. Perform all test required by local
codes.
1. Check equipment rating to be sure that fixture will receive
proper line voltage.
2. Be sure pilot light is on. If pilot light does not operate,
check to see that:
A. Pilot Light Connector and test switch
c
are con-
nected.
B. AC power is on.
C. Voltage on branch circuit to Battery Pack is rated
at line voltage (120V or 277V). If no line voltage can be
measured, locate problem in branch circuit and correct.
3. Press test switch. The pilot light
c
should be off. One
fluorescent lamp should be operating at a reduced light
output.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Battery packs are not field serviceable units.
CAUTION:
Damage to battery will occur if Battery connection is made
for a prolonged period of time without AC power provided.
CAUTION:
Connecting the Battery Connector
e
also connects the
battery to the inverter circuit which can result in high
voltage being present between the output leads.
1. Drill or punch one 1/2” holes in fixture wall or
wireway cover.
2. Insert one side of test switch/pilot light c into the
hold from the back and snap in the other side. Slide
mounting clip firmly onto mounting post to secure
test switch assembly. Mark the test switch location
with the charge indicator label.
3. Connect test switch and pilot light
c leads to
violet and grey leads on inverter. See wiring
diagram for proper connections.
4. Apply continuous power to Battery Pack.
5. Connect the battery connector
