5.1 Start-up and Test

AC Line Operation

1. Before making any power supply connections, verify the correct voltage, polarity, and

frequency are available from both the AC utility power source and the DC battery system.

2. Verify the AC circuit breaker (located on customer supplied service disconnect) and the

battery breaker on the GMX Power Supply are off.

3. Plug the GMX Power Supply power cord into the enclosure convenience outlet, and the

battery cable into the Battery Input connector on the front of the power supply. Plug the

RTS into the Temp Probe connection and attach it to the side of the center battery. If

applicable, connect the LRI wiring to the LRI ± terminals on the terminal block, and the

Auxiliary Output wiring to the AUX ± terminals on the terminal block.

4. Switch the AC (service disconnect) circuit breaker on to start initial power up. During

this stage the power supply performs a “display self-test”, and verifies the configuration

for the power supply. The configuration screen looks similar to the figure below. After

the initial display self-test, a No Batteries alarm message appears in the Smart Display

because the battery breaker is still off. The green output LED remains off, and the red

alarm LED continues to flash until the battery breaker is switched ON and the power

supply qualifies the batteries (this may take up to one minute).

5. Switch on the battery breaker. Within one minute the flashing red alarm LED turns OFF,

the green output LED turns ON, the No Battery alarm clears, and the power supply

resumes normal operation. Use the Smart Display to verify operations and Setup as

needed.
