5  OPERATION 

 
The Mass GI can be activated by switching the main 
switch (figure 1, ref. 1) to the “ON” position. When no 
error is present, the green ON LED illuminates after 
this.  The  Mass  GI  will  then  generate  an  AC  output 
voltage.  Move  the switch to  the  Standby  position  to 
switch  off  the  Mass  GI.  In  standby  the  Mass  GI 
remains connected to the AC mains! 
 

5.1 

Resetting the Mass GI  

When the Mass GI is in failure mode it can be reset 
in two ways:  
1. 

By  switching  it  Off  and  On  again  using  the 

main switch (figure 1 ref. 1). 
2. 

By  using  the  MasterBus  function  Restart 

(section 7.1). 

5.2 

Maintenance 

No  specific  maintenance  is  required.  If  necessary, 
use  a  soft  clean  cloth  to  clean  the  Mass  GI.  Never 
use any liquids, acids and/or scourers. 
For  reliable  and  optimum  function  examine  your 
electrical installation on a regular base, at least once 
a  year.  Defects  such  as  loose  connections,  burnt 
wiring etc. must be corrected immediately. 
 

5.3 

LED indicators 

The operation of the Mass GI is displayed by means 
of  front  panel  LEDs.  See  the  table  below  for 
explanation.
