Testing Hardware Installation
There are two modes you can boot into: Test Mode and Normal Mode
You can easily test your installation by booting into Test Mode. This will allow you to
manually toggle relay channels, even if the ELV8e is not configured or connected to an
Ethernet network.
Normal Mode is used for normal operation. The ELV8e will always default to Normal
Mode.
Boot Up to Normal Mode:
Simply power up without the test button pushed.
The ELV8e will also return to Normal Mode after 2 minutes of inactivity in Test Mode.
Using Normal Mode:
While in normal mode, all Ethernet commands are processed, and the Test Button is
ignored. The Power LED will be on solid, with a quick blink off when it receives a
command.
Boot Up to Test Mode:
1.
De-power ELV8e
2.
Press and hold the Test Button
3.
Power up unit while continuing to hold the Test Button
4.
2 seconds after the ELV8e powers up, release the Test Button. The device is now
in Test Mode. The Test Mode sequence will run, turning each relay channel on and
then off in turn. The Power LED will then start blinking to indicate that it is in
Test Mode
