After applying power to the WLTS, it will begin to communi-
cate with the trip unit and verify that critical subsystems are 
operational. Once all checks have been successfully com-
pleted, the “ETU STATUS” LED will turn on, and remain lit until 
a function button is pressed. A flashing “ETU STATUS” LED is 
indication of an error. A full list of the error codes is found in 
Table 1.

The start-up tests can be repeated at any time by holding 
down the "START" button for three seconds.

Testing the current and energy sensors

To test the current sensors and energy transducers, press the 
"START" button.

A lit-up LED confirms the proper operation of the 
corresponding sensor/transducer. If an LED flashes, the 
corresponding sensor/converter is not present, not properly 
connected, or is in need of replacement.

Whether a flashing N- or G-LED is due to a non-conforming 
current sensor depends the position of the draw-out circuit 
breaker when tested and the ground fault scheme being 
used.  In the draw out position, external sensors are not 
connected and both N- and G-LEDs will flash. A circuit breaker 
used in a 3-wire residual GF scheme will always show flashing 
N- and G-LEDs because there are no external sensors 
connected, regardless of the position. A circuit breaker used 
in a 4-wire residual GF scheme will show a flashing G-LED 
because there is no iron-core G CT connected. A circuit 
breaker used in an MDGF GF scheme may show a flashing 
N-LED  depending  on  whether  a  neutral  current  sensor  is                  
in use.

The "ETU STATUS" LED may blink twice when the trip unit is powered by an 

external power supply. This is not an error. It is recommended that the trip unit 
be tested without external control power.
