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.
Caution:
This equipment monitors the lamp load. If the
loading is changed, the derangement signal requires calibration
(referred to Load-Learning feature) to ensure proper operation.
Load-Learning feature:
Self-Diagnostic units automatically 'learn' their total connected
lamp load during the first scheduled self-test (~15 days). The
load-learn clear process can be initiated manually and should
be initiated whenever the total connected lamp load of the unit
is changed, or potentially troubleshooting a lamp error (unit
indicates a lamp error yet all lamps are operating correctly) or a
lamp is replaced.
To clear the current load-learn, press and hold the "TEST"
button for 7 seconds (count green 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 clear is
complete. If lamps stay on longer, the load clear was not
successful and the process should be repeated. A new load
learn will automatically take place at the next discharge from a
fully charged state (solid green status indicator).
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).
TESTING and MAINTENANCE
Disable / Enable Scheduled Testing:
Briefly press the "TEST" button. While the lamps are on in Test
mode, press the "TEST" button again and hold it for 6 seconds
(count green flashes on status LED), then release the "TEST"
button. The status indicator will then show 5 short amber flashes
and the lamps will turn off.
disabling of future automatically-scheduled testing.
To re-enable scheduled testing, repeat the above procedure. The
five short status indicator flashes will be green to indicate that
scheduled testing is now enabled.

IMPORTANT BATTERY INFORMATION:
Batteries are perishable items. For best results, it is
recommended that the batteries receive an initial charge within
the first twelve months of the manufacture date of the fixture. 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. 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.
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.
