Electric Strike System
Use Electric Strike Simulator
Use the Electric Strike Simulator (p/n 259-506) to test voltage and current sensors on ESID. If readings are
less than indicated here, replace 9V battery in simulator and retest.
Current Test
To test for current at normal levels:
1. Thread one lead wire through current transformer.
2. Clip ends of lead wires together to make one loop.
3. On engine display, use soft keys to select ESID.
4. Move simulator switch to "current" and press test button.
5. Watch display:
• ESID graph should show on display
• ESID % and Current “AMPS” should show 30-50% on display
To test for current at strike levels:
1. Put two or three loops through current transformer.
2. Follow steps above to test.
3. Display should show a strike detection warning and alarm and strobe should turn on.
With two loops:
• Current should be 80-110%;
• Strike indication might go on and off.
With three loops:
• Current should be 130-160%
• Strike indication should be continuous
