Testing
Depending on the type of battery charger unit installed in the canopy, fol-
low the appropriate section below.
Unit with regular battery charger (green & yellow LED)
The display of the regular charger includes a green LED for “AC ON” and
a yellow LED for “Charger ON” (see fig. 7). In normal AC operation the
green LED is on and depending on the type of battery used and the
charge level of the battery, the yellow LED may light in different ways:
- Continuously ON: The battery is in full charge mode
- Flashing at a rate of one flash per second or less: Lead acid battery at
the end of charge
- Flashing continuously, approximately 10 flashes per second: NiCad or
NiMH battery in trickle charge.
1. Manual test
Push the test button. The "AC ON" indicator will stay ON and the
"CHARGER ON" indicator will be OFF. The EXIT sign will stay illumi-
nated (may flicker once or twice during the transfer) and the remote
loads will be on. The remote loads will stay ON for "one minute" if the
test button is not pushed again. The transfer test can be aborted by
pushing the test button any time during the one minute. After one minute
or if the test button is pushed again, the unit will automatically go back to
charging mode. The remote loads will turn OFF and the "CHARGER ON"
indicator will turn on.
2. Automatic Unit Cycle test (optional)
For the units equipped with AUC function, the unit will automatically run a
10 minute or 30 minute emergency testing cycle once a month.
3. Time Delay (optional)
For the units equipped with TD function, turn the AC power OFF and ON
again, the "CHARGER ON' indicator will be OFF. The unit will stay in
emergency mode with the remote loads turned on, for the length of the
time delay (5,10,15, 20 or 30 minutes). Once this time has elapsed, the
unit will automatically go back to charging mode.
