Running On Battery Power:
Location '(C) AC Power Status' above indicats an AC
Power Loss 'O'. If the alarm is silenced this location will
be blinking to indicate the alarm is silenced. Location '(F)
Battery Life' will indicate the Battery Life in Hours
Remaining when AC Power fails. ‘999’ Hours is the
maximum number displayed. The Battery Life Monitor
calculates the remaining life about 4 times an hour. When
running on battery power you should closely monitor the
Battery Life when the Hours Indicated are ten (10) or
below. Fluctuating pump(s) times, battery condition and
battery state before going to battery power will affect the
calculated time throughout the power loss, in addition this
number may not be accurate if the Battery Amps Hours are
not set correctly before the Power Outage began. The
alarm will also sound from the loss of electric power,
which may silenced by performing a Function 'S'. Once
AC power is restored the display will again display a
normal status. A charge cycle may also be enabled at the
time AC Power is restored.
