OPERATION CHECKS:
This product is fitted with an automatic, self-test
function that will commission and test itself in

Standards. Monthly and annual tests will be
automatically completed as detailed below with
tests including battery charge condition, functional
test and duration test.
Monthly – ten minute functional test
Annually – full three-hour duration test
• On installation a date will be randomly assigned for
the first monthly and first annual test.
• The initial monthly test will be between 16 and 30
days from installation.
• The initial full-duration test will be between 200
and 360 days from installation (annual tests will
then be conducted every 360 days).
• The schedule of these tests will be remembered
for a period of 7 days if no power is supplied to the
luminaire.
• If there is a mains failure in 24 hours before a test
is due to be conducted, the test will automatically
be postponed until sufficient time is allowed to
recharge the battery.
• If there is a mains failure during the self-test
operation the unit will go into emergency mode.
