BPS-1100 Installation and Operation Manual
19
8.0 System Checkout
8.1 Before Turning The Power "ON"
1. To prevent sparking, do not connect the batteries. Connect the batteries after powering the system from the
main AC supply.
2. Check that all Adder Modules are installed in the proper location with the proper connections.
3. Check all field (external) wiring for opens, shorts, and ground.
4. Check that all interconnection cables are secure, and that all connectors are plugged-in properly.
5. Check all Jumpers and Switches for proper setting.
6. Check the AC power wiring for proper connection.
7. Check that the chassis is connected to EARTH GROUND (cold water pipe).
8. Make sure to close the front cover plate before powering the system from main AC supply.
8.2 Power-up Procedure
1. After completing the System Checkout procedures, power-up the panel. The green "AC-ON" LED should
illuminate, the “Common Trouble” LED should illuminate.
2. Since the batteries are not connected, the "Battery Trouble" LED should illuminate, the “Common Trouble”
LED should flash and the Trouble Relay (on the main BPS-1100 board) will be active.
3. Connect the batteries while observing correct polarity; the red wire is positive (+) and black wire is negative (-).
4. All indicators should extinguish except for normal power "AC-ON" green LED.
8.3 Troubleshooting
Circuit Trouble
Normally when a Circuit trouble occurs, its designated trouble indicator will be illuminated, as well as the common
trouble indicator and the common trouble relay will be active. To correct the fault, check for open wiring on that
particular Circuit loop or if the Circuit Disconnect Switch is in the on or closed position.
Ground Fault
This panel has a common ground fault detector. To correct the fault, check for any external wiring touching the
chassis or other Earth Ground connection.
Battery Trouble
Check for the presence of batteries and their conditions. Low voltage (below 20.4V) will cause a battery trouble. If
battery trouble condition persists, replace batteries as soon as possible.
Configuration. Mode
If the Test/Config LED is illuminated steady, the system is in Configuration Mode. If it is flashing then the
Configuration has been corrupted, and has been reset to defaults; it is then necessary to review / re-enter your
Configuration.
Common Trouble
If only a common trouble is indicated on the main panel and none of those above confirming trouble indicators are
on, then check the following for possible fault:
i) Check for any missing interconnection wiring.
ii) Check for any Adder Module missing that was part of the Configuration.
iii) Check jumper positions; particularly ensure that the Continuity Jumper is installed only on the LAST Adder
Module in the system.
iv) Check for improperly secured cabling.
Note:
Disconnecting a Circuit will cause a system trouble (off-normal position).
