be opened and should only be handled by a qualified
competent person. WARNING! This luminaire is intended
only for mounting in locations where the plug and socket

DESCRIPTION
The LFSPOT Twin LED Emergency Floodlight is designed to provide
indirect emergency lighting when mains supply fail. It features Ultra
Bright High Performance 2x 3W LED floodlights, low standby power
consumption. Designed and tested in accordance to AS/NZS 2293,
AS60598.2.22, EMC.
Box Contents:
• Manual
• Fitting
When the mains supply fails, the LFSPOT initially provides 2 hours
illumination from a fully charged battery following a 16 hours charge. All
models are intended for connection to 240 V.A.C. +5% -10% 50Hz supply
via an unswitched active.
The LFSPOT comes as standard with SENTINEL Automatic Self-testing
but is
NOT
compatible with WiNetRF Central Monitoring.
The BARDIC WINETRF central monitoring module allows compatible
fittings to communicate with the BARDIC WINETRF system, which offers
additional functions such as real-time control and monitoring, web-based
interface, free topology, automatic scheduler and electronic logbook.
For further information on BARDIC WINETRF compatible floodlights,
contact your local dealer or visit www.bardic.com.au.
The SENTINEL feature, if enabled, will automatically test the fitting every
91 days for operation in the emergency condition (operation on battery) for
a minimum duration of 90 minutes. The results of the test, fail or pass, is
indicated by flashing the LED (mounted on the fitting) at Intervals.
Refer to the SENTINEL user guide section if enabling the sentinel
feature.

IMPORTANT!
A faulty battery can place severe overloads upon electrical components
in the fitting therefore it is important that the faulty battery be replaced as
soon as possible.
FUNCTIONS
The LFSPOT model come complete with an automatic charger, inverter
module and lithium iron phosphate battery. The inverter and battery power
dual LED head lamps which can be configured to run in maintained or
non-maintained mode when AC is supplied and switches on automatically
when AC fails. Solid state circuitry switches off the LEDs and isolates the
battery when it is fully discharged and will not reset until mains is restored.
A GREEN light emitting diode (LED) charge monitor indicates a healthy
mains supply and functioning charger. A test switch to simulate a mains
power failure is included for testing an emergency operation when the
mains supply is healthy.
The LED floodlights are both powered by the 6.4 Volt battery but are parallel
connected to ensure independent operation if one lamp fails.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: If the BARDIC Sentinel feature is to be enabled, check the installa-
tion instructions provided with that product before proceeding further.
• Remove the screw securing the front panel and take off panel
• Knock out the cable entry holes on the side of the fitting.
• The mounting hole centers of the mounting slots located in the back of
the case are 70mm apart.
• Mark the wall in the desired mounting position keeping the mounting
height of the unit as set in the lighting deign.
• Drill and plug the mounting screw holes.
• Pass the mains leads through the cable entry hole / knock out and
connect the active lead to active (A) terminal, neutral lead to neutral (N)
terminal and the earth wire to the earth (E) terminal.
• The battery has been disconnected to prevent discharge while in
storage. Reconnect the battery.
• Write the date of installation on the battery label.
• Mount the fitting
• Refit the front panel and switch on the A.C. Mains supply.
COMMISSIONING
IMPORTANT! If the BARDIC WINETRF has been fitted to this SPU, then
follow its commissioning instructions.
1.
Switch on mains supply. The charge monitor LED and mains operated
LEDs will illuminate.
2.
Allow the unit to operate for 30mins and then depress the test switch
to check emergency operation.
3.
Release the test switch and allow the unit to operate for 16 hours to
fully charge the battery after which time the unit is ready for duty.
4.
A 2-hour discharge test is required as part of the commissioning
process as per AS2293.
MAINTENANCE
• MONTHLY - inspect to ensure charge monitor is illuminated.
• SIX MONTHLY (or at the discretion of the enforcing Authority) -
isolate the mains supply to unit and allow it to operate until the lamp
extinguishes. Should the unit provide less than 90 minutes illumination
between 10°c and 40°C ambient temperature following a 16 hour
charge, the unit is faulty and steps should be taken to rectify the fault.
• TWELVE MONTHLY - Clean all light-emitting/ reflecting surfaces.
• FIVE YEARS TEST - Check fitting runtime against L70 lifetime and
determine if it is still suitable for use.
SENTINEL USER GUIDE
To enable
sentinel functionality, move the switch on the control board to
the “S” position
When the fitting is first powered up with sentinel active, sentinel will initial-
ize the fitting. This is a quick check to ascertain that the fitting can function
correctly when AC is cut off.
If the initialization fails
, the yellow sentinel indicator on the fitting will blink
continuously until the fault is rectified and the sentinel switch is toggled.
•
Check that battery is connected
•
And fitting has been correctly installed
•
Toggle sentinel switch in the control board to off and back to
on position
•
Fitting will reinitialize
Upon a successful initialization,
the fitting will run a commissioning test
after 16 hrs of charging, followed by a 90 mins test being scheduled 91
days after a successful commissioning.
If the commissioning test fails
, the yellow sentinel indicator will blink
continuously (0.5sec on, 0.5sec off) and sentinel will schedule another
commission test to run in the next 16 hrs.
Commissioning tests will continue to run after every 16 hrs until
a successful test has been recorded.
NOTE:
Ensure that there are no power interruptions to the site 16 hrs be-
fore the commissioning test to allow the fitting to be fully charged.
Clearing fault display
while maintaining a synchronized testing time for all
fittings within the same area on the site.
After rectifying the fault, push and release the test button 4 times
[1]
in 7 secs
to clear the yellow LED fault display. This action will turn off the yellow LED
and it would remain off until the next scheduled test. After which it would
display the results of the last test.
To reset a fitting;
with the fitting powered up, move the sentinel switch to
the off position, wait 30 secs and move the sentinel switch back to the on
position.
This action causes the fitting to factory reset. Any previous stored test will
be deleted, and the 91 days schedule will be reset. The fitting will re-com-
mission itself.
Requesting tests
Two types of test can be manually requested.
•
A quick test
A quick test is a 5 sec test usually used during installation to check that
the battery, lamp etc. are properly installed. It runs the fitting in emergency
mode for 5 secs.
To initiate a quick test. Press and release the test switch 3 times
[1]
in 7 secs.
•
A 90-minute Standard test
To initiate a 90-minute test, push the test button 2 times
[1]
within 7 secs.
Sentinel will acknowledge the command by causing the yellow indicator to
blink rapidly for 5 secs.
The requested test will be run 16 hrs afterwards to allow time for battery
to fully charge.
Note:
manually requesting a 90 min test will shift / adjust the 91day sched-
ule.
[1] :
Button pressed (power cut) for a minimum of 490ms, button released (power
restore) for a minimum of 320ms.
NOTE:
The 6 monthly test should be undertaken wherever possible at
times of least risk (e.g. during daylight hours). This is because of the
possibility of a failure of the normal lighting supply whilst the battery is
discharged).
