8 System Startup
After completing the shelf wiring and installation, perform the following startup and test procedure to ensure
proper operation:
8.1 Check System Connections
• Ensure AC is off, battery is disconnected
• Ensure CXCM (if equipped) and all power modules are removed from the shelf.
• Triple check the polarity of all connections.
8.2 Verify AC and Power the Shelf
• Install one power module.
• Verify AC input voltage is correct and turn on the corresponding AC input feeder breaker.
• The power module OK LED should illuminate after a preset start delay.
• Using the CXC (CXCM if equipped), test functionality of various module alarms and controls.
8.3 Check Battery Polarity and Connect
• Verify correct battery polarity using a voltmeter (ensuring no cells or batteries are reversed).
• Connect battery as required to the output of the system or turn on battery breaker.
• Install remaining power modules.
• In the adjustments menu of the CXC, set Float and Equalize voltage to the levels specified by the battery
manufacturer.
• Using the CXC, test functionality of various module alarms and controls. In addition, perform a load test with
the system using a resistive load box as needed.
8.4 CXC Reset
A reset button is located on the front panel of the CXC for restarting the microprocessor. It takes approximately 15
seconds before the display reappears after pressing the reset button. To protect against accidental load
disconnect, see 6.10.1.1.
