7. Connect appropriate signaling notification devices to AC FAIL & BAT FAIL (Fig. 2, pg. 2) supervisory relay outputs.

Note: When used in fire alarm, burglar alarm or access control applications, “AC Fail” relay should be

utilized to visually indicate that AC power is on. To delay report 6 hours cut “AC Delay” jumper (Fig. 2a, pg. 2).

Maintenance:

Unit should be tested at least once a year for the proper operation as follows:
Output Voltage Test: Under normal load conditions, the DC output voltage should be checked for proper voltage level
(refer to Power Supply Voltage Output Specifications chart).
Battery Test: Under normal load conditions check that the battery is fully charged, check specified voltage both at the
battery terminal and at the board terminals marked [+ BAT –] to ensure that there is no break in the battery
connection wires.
Note: Maximum charging current under discharge is 0.7 amp.

Note: Expected battery life is 5 years; however, it is recommended changing batteries in 4 years or less if needed.

Connect 115VAC 60 Hz to these terminals: L to hot, N to Neutral, G to ground.

+ DC ---

12VDC @ 4 amp or 24VDC @ 3 amp continuous power-limited output.

AC Fail
NC, C, NO

1 minute of event. To delay reporting of up to 6 hrs., cut “AC delay” jumper and reset power to unit.

Bat Fail
NC, C, NO

Indicates low battery condition, e.g. connect to alarm panel. Relay normally energized
when DC power is present. Contact rating 1 amp @ 28VDC.
