NOTE: Emergency lighting systems should be tested in
accordance with NFPA 101 or as often as local codes
require, to ascertain that all components are operational.
NOTE: Allow batteries to charge for 24 hours before initial
testing.
Manual testing:
If the batteries are sufficiently charged, either press and release
the "TEST" button or use the RTKIT (remote tester accessory,
up to 40' away for SDRT units only) on the bottom of the unit to
activate a 60-second test, during which the lamps will turn on.
Triggering either option a second time will enable a 90-minute
tests indicated by 5 flashes of the lamps. Triggering either
option a third time will disable manual testing.
Self-Diagnostics (SDRT feature)
Units with this option automatically perform a 5-minute self-
diagnostic test of the charging electronics, battery, and lamps
every 30 days, and a 90-minute test every year, indicating
system status as shown in the table at right. First self test
occurs after 15 days of continuous AC Power.
Postponing a self-test:
If an automatic self-test occurs at a time when it is not desirable
for the unit lamps to be on, it can be postponed for 8 hours
either by pressing and releasing the "TEST" button or by using
RTKIT (remote tester accessory, up to 40' away).
Cancelling emergency operation:
Press and hold the "TEST" button for several seconds or
deactivate using the RTKIT (remote tester accessory, up to 40'
away), during which the status indicator will flash until the lamps
turn off. This restores the AC Reset state in which the unit is
shipped.
Load-Learning feature:
Self-Diagnostic units automatically 'learn' their total connected
lamp load during the first scheduled self-test (~15 days). The
load-learning function can also be initiated manually by
pressing and holding the "TEST" button for 7 seconds (count
flashes), during this period the lamps will turn on. After 7
seconds, release the button, the lamps will turn off within 2
seconds indicating load learn complete. If lamps stay on longer,
load learn was not successful. This manual load-learning
feature should be initiated whenever the total connected lamp
load of the unit is changed, or a lamp is replaced.
NOTE: Manual load-learning functions cannot be initiated if
there is inadequate charge in the batteries. If this is so, wait
until the unit indicates full battery charge (solid green status
indication) before initiating the manual load-learning function.
Clearing a failure indication:
After a failure condition has been corrected and power is
restored to the unit, clear the failure indication either by
pressing the "TEST" button once or by using the RTKIT
(remote tester accessory, up to 40' away).
Time Delay (TD Option):
With TD option, the lamps will stay on for 20 minutes after AC
power is restored to the unit from the emergency mode, or until
the batteries reach the Low Voltage Disconnect level. Time
Delay operation can be cancelled at any time during this 20-
minute period by pressing the test switch once.
TESTING and MAINTENANCE
IMPORTANT BATTERY INFORMATION:
Batteries are perishable items. For best results, it is
recommended that the batteries receive an initial charge within
the first six months of the manufacture date of the fixture. The
manufacture date can be found on the outside of the unit
packaging and on the product label as part of the Date Code /
Series. The first two digits in the date code represent the year
and the second two digits represent the month. In many cases,
batteries beyond the initial charge recommendation time frame
will recover if fully charged soon after installation. If such a
battery does not recover after a full initial charge, it should be
replaced.

Remote Test (SDRT):
Units with the self-diagnostics/remote test feature allows
manual test activation using a laser pointer. Aim the laser
beam straight onto the circular area labeled near the "TEST"
button for a few moments to activate a 60-second test. (See
also "Manual testing"). A test in progress may be cancelled by
aiming the beam at the test area again. NOTE: The remote
tester should not be used to initiate the Load Learning feature.
