GFPD-600V
Test Button Uses:
The test button can be used for three purposes:
1. With the GFPD-600V in normal mode, pressing the test button conducts a system test that opens
the breaker, shows a red solid LED, and sounds the buzzer;
2. When a ground-fault error has occurred, pressing the test button resets the GFPD-600V to the
normal
condition;
3. When a wiring error / open breaker alarm has occurred, pressing the test button resets the
GFPD-600V to the normal condition.
Faults and Corrections:
♦ When a ground-fault error has occurred, push the test button and then close the breaker to
resume normal operation. Have a qualified technician investigate the ground-fault cause.
♦ When a wiring error / open breaker alarm has occurred, correct wiring error and/or close breaker.
Push the test button to resume normal operation.
♦
When the low battery voltage threshold of nine volts is reached, the buzzer will sound. To
resume normal operation, re-charge or replace the battery powering the GFPD-600V.
♦
Push the test button to perform a system test. Close the breaker to resume normal operation.
♦
A critical fault indicates a hardware malfunction. Please contact Morningstar for instructions.
♦
If previous trouble-shooting does not correct the problem, re-start the unit by removing in-line
source fuse, and re-installing.
