INSTALLATION
Transformer Inputs:
=================
BLACK - 120V
WHITE - Common
RED - 277V
TO OPEN EXIT SIGN:
2
1
DO NOT FEED
IMPORTANT NOTE:
REMOVE THE INPUT POWER IMMEDIATELY IF ALL
RED LED’S ON THE OP-PANEL FLASH: This indicates
that the input power is incorrectly wired, and needs to be
corrected. IF 277 is applied to the 120 tap for more than
7/sec, then the fusable-link may open requiring the
transformer to be replaced. Note that this condition is not
covered by warranty.
WALL / CEILING / FLAG INSTALLATION:
>
WALL MOUNT) Always verify the input voltage source. Open front cover as shown above. Route the required transformer input wires (BLACK=120V,
WHITE=common, RED=277V) though the read center K/O and make input connection in the box. Simply use the Box pattern K/O’s in the back panel as
needed to mount to wall box and secure unit to the wall. If the unit is shipped with the battery disconnected, connect/verify it at this time to the BAT location on
the main PCA. Remove the snap-out chevrons in the EXIT panels as needed, replace the EXIT panel(s) back on to the sign, and then proceed to Power-Up
Sequence...
>
CEILING/FLAG MOUNT) Remove the two snap-out plugs at the desired locations for the canopy to fit. Route the proper two transformer input wires
(BLACK=120V, WHITE=common, RED=277V) out through the hole in the body for the canopy snap that is labeled “<< INPUT FEED ACCESS”. Then snap the
canopy in to the body with the wires threaded. Align the metal adapter plate for mount direction and mount it to the j-box with the input wires out through the
center hole. Now make the input connections and then push them in through the center hole in the metal adapter plate, and mount the canopy/exit-sign to the
metal adapter. Remove the snap-out chevrons in the EXIT panels as needed, replace the EXIT panel(s) back on to the sign, and then proceed to Power-Up
Sequence...

REMOVE THE INPUT POWER IMMEDIATELY IF ALL RED LED’S ON THE OP-PANEL
FLASH. This indicates that the input power is incorrectly wired, and needs to be
corrected. IF 277 is applied to the 120 tap for more than 7/sec, then the fusable-link may
open requiring the transformer to be replaced. Note that this condition is not covered by
warranty.

1) Most likely the battery is not connected; verify that it is connected to the BAT
location of the main PCA.
2) If the battery is connected, then it is faulty and needs to be replaced.

1) If some of the (6) LED’s are on and some are off, the the EXIT strip needs to be
replaced.
2) Verify that the cable to the EXIT strip is connected to the EXIT location of the main
PCA, and to the EXIT strip INPUT location.
NOTE: It is very important that all of the (6) LEDs of the strip are operating during the
first 24 hours after installation. Otherwise the system LED detection circuit may not
properly detect the LED strip.
>
The unit automatically performs diag testing at all power-up’s, and randomly each 30/days. The system is capable
of detecting a single LED failure of the EXIT sign. This is only possible if at installation, you verify that all (6) LED’s
of the EXIT sign are lighted.
If they are not all operating, the system will not properly learn the units thresholds causing the system to improperly
detect LED failures.
The system also constantly monitors and controls all functions, the charging circuit, the EXIT LED’s, operator
manual tests.
The charge circuit is computer controlled by an algorithm that is monitoring the environment, the levels of the
battery, and the curves associated to each. The system literally learns these parameters and then remembers
them to better provide for the best life of the unit and its’ battery.
It is normal for the CHARGER LED to goON solid right after the power-up sequence from installation.
This indicates the battery is charging, and the LED will go out when the battery is at full charge, this usually occurs within 24-96 hours after installation.
The charger LED may cycle from off to on solid as the system charging algorithm dictates. This is normal.
Allow the system to fully charge until the CHARGER LED is off before initiating tests.

GREEN - Status: Solid indicates system normal and charging current from the input source is available.
NOTE: Pressing the button during any test will cancel the test and return to normal.
1 Press: performs a 5/sec brief test, all lamps operating from battery only.
2 Press: performs a 1/min test, all lamps operating from battery only.
3 Press: performs a 30/min long run discharge test, all lamps operating from battery only. The system locks out to allow only one 30/min test ea 24/hr period.
CONTINUOS MONITORING: The system monitors the battery for proper levels and performs periodic low-level exercising. Constant LAMP/EXIT checking,
should a LAMP/EXIT LED fail, the system will flash the LAMPS indicator until repaired. The charger is fully checked once per day for a internally disconnected
integrity check, at this time the battery is also completely isolated and then check for proper capacity levels.
OPTIONAL FACTORY EQUIPPED ITEMS:
FireAlarm Interface: Unit will be supplied with a connector at the FAFI location and a interface cable to connect to the building system (per wiring diagram).
Flashing EM: Unit will flash the EXIT sign when operating from the battery only.
Remote Control: Use typical laser pen to operated unit from the floor level just as if you were pushing the button as the laser passes across the sensor.
