Applying AC power to the unit activates its emergency function and the charger circuit, and supplies power to the control/
monitor circuit and charging indicator light. When AC power fails, the emergency driver automatically switches to
emergency mode, keeping the LED load illuminated at a reduced lumen output for a minimum of 90 minutes (or longer for
2 hr and 4 hr emergency run-time products). When AC power is restored, the emergency driver returns to charging mode.
STEP #4 WIRING THE EMERGENCY DRIVER
> Select the appropriate wiring diagram to connect the emergency driver to the AC driver and LED load.
Make sure all connections are in accordance with the National Electrical Code and any local regulations.
> After installation is complete, supply AC power to the emergency driver.
> At this point, power should be connected to both the AC driver and the emergency driver, and the Charging
Indicator Light should illuminate indicating the battery is charging.
> A short-term discharge test may be conducted after the emergency driver has been charged for one hour. Charge
for 24 hours before conducting a long-term discharge test. Refer to OPERATION.
> In a readily visible location, attach the label "CAUTION - This Unit Has More Than One Power Connection Point.
To Reduce The Risk Of Electric Shock, Disconnect Both The Branch Circuit-Breakers Or Fuses And Emergency
Power Supplies Before Servicing."
STEP #3 INSTALLING THE ILLUMINATED TEST SWITCH
> Mount the supplied Illuminated test switch in a location that is visible and ac-
cessible by maintenance personnel. The test switch mounts through a ½” hole
which may need to be made in the luminaire or could come pre-punched by
the luminaire supplier.
> Connect the test switch by connecting it to the unit test switch cable.
> If connected correctly, the indicator light should be ON when AC power is
supplied to the xture indicating that the unit is charging. After installing, mark
with the "PUSH TO TEST" and "CHARGING INDICATOR LIGHT" labels.

INSTALLING THE EMERGENCY DRIVER
> Disconnect AC power from the LED luminaire.
> Mount the emergency LED driver by the mounting tabs using the supplied screws. The luminaire’s installation
instructions may provide guidance on the recommended mounting location.
> Mounting Height: Many factors inuence emergency illumination levels, such as the lamp load selected, luminare
design, and environmental factors therefore end use verication is necessary. For eld installations, when the at-
tached luminaire is mounted at heights greater than 7.17ft (2.2m), the level of illumination must be measured in the
end application to ensure the requirements of NFPA 101 and local codes are satised.
> Remote Mounting: The emergency LED driver may be remote mounted from the luminaire if installed in accordan-
ance with the NEC. If used in conjunction with an AC driver the allowed distance is up to half the distance the AC
driver manufacturer recommends remote mounting the AC driver from the LED load. If used without an AC driver,
and remote mounting more than 5 feet from the luminaire, please consult the factory to determine the necessary
wire gauge. CAUTION: Remote mounting can result in reduced power output.
STEP #2
NOTE: This product has been designed to reliably interface with a wide selection of LED loads and is electrically compatible
with every simple LED array that meets criteria 1 and 2 above. However, compatibility cannot be guaranteed with all current
and future LED systems. Compatibility testing of the end-use system is recommended. Please contact the factory for more
information.
NOTE: After installation, it will be necessary to measure the egress lighting illumination levels to ensure they comply with
national, state, and local code requirements.
This unit contains a control/monitor circuit that automatically performs a 30-second discharge test once a month and a
full 90-minute discharge test once a year. During routine testing, the emergency driver simulates an AC power failure
causing the unit to automatically switch to emergency mode. The unit will monitor the operation of the LED load, battery
voltage, LED load connections and emergency duration. At the end of this test, if the emergency system functions properly,
the unit will return to normal operation. Should the unit detect any problems, the indicator light will flash per failure
condition (see Troubleshooting guide) until the condition has been corrected and the unit passes the next test.
To reset a failure indication, turn off AC power to the emergency driver for a minimum of 10 seconds or briefly push the
test switch. If the condition has not been corrected by the next scheduled test, the unit will once again detect the failure
and signal the failure indicator.
