INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Self-Diagnostic/Self-Test Operation
INTRODUCTION
Once the unit is properly installed according to the installation instruction sheet and AC power supplied, the dual-color LED indicator will come on and the self-diagnostic test function will automatically initiate. The LED points out the current unit status. A
STEADY GREEN on the LED indicator indicates normal service; BLINKING GREEN indicates the unit is in testing mode;
GREEN/RED FLASHING indicates that the battery is charging; RED (STEADY) and (BLINKING) would indicate a fault or service alert. Refer to Service Indication Section for more details. The LED indicator would be OFF when the unit is in emergency mode.
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SERVICE
The self-diagnostic function is factory pre-set without any field adjustment. The automatic self-diagnostic feature serves the following tests. a.
On-line real time monitoring of battery and LEDs: monitoring of battery, battery charger and LEDs.
b. Self testing in a 30 second discharge once every 30 days (conforming to NFPA 101 current Life Safety Code requirements), after AC power has been supplied for a minimum of 24 hours.
c. Self testing in a 30 minute discharge once every 180 days, after AC power has been supplied for a minimum of 24 hours.
d. Self testing in a 90 minute discharge once every 365 days, (conforming to NFPA 101 current Life Safety Code requirements), after AC power has been supplied for a minimum of 24 hours.

MANUAL TESTING
This unit also provides manual testing by pushing the test button in a specific pattern. The different patterns and the resulting tests are listed in the table below.
ACTION REACTION & LED INDICATION
Push test button once (within 2 seconds).
Push test button twice (within 2 seconds).
30-second test: FLASHING GREEN.
30-minute test: FLASHING GREEN twice.
Push test button three times (within 2 seconds).
Push test button and hold for 3 seconds (in test mode).
90-minute test: FLASHING GREEN three times.
Cancels test. If self-test is cancelled it is recommended that a manual test of the same duration be performed at a more convenient time to ensure compliance.
Push test button and hold for 6 seconds (in test mode) System reset
OPERATION
During an electrical power failure, the LEDs will transfer into emergency mode and stay illuminated for a minimum of 90-minutes.
To test this unit, the battery needs to be charged initially for 24 hours (to do manual test). In the test mode, the LEDs will transfer into a simulated emergency mode with the LED indicator FLASHING GREEN.
WARNING:
Make sure that power is OFF before making any electrical connections.
Unused wires must be capped using enclosed wire nuts.
