  • Page 17: Operational Information And Controls

    System Description • Each signal bus continuously transmits “bus integrity” signals, when not transmitting true data. If the “bus integrity” signals are not received by all receivers, then that bus is considered discontinuous and is alarmed. • The CAN Bus has circular redundancy so that there are two paths. One path can be severed and signals will continue to flow via the other path.

    Installation is the responsibility of the Installer, who may be an Installing Contractor. The Installer must be an electrician certified for the locality where the installation is being performed. A PDI-certified technician must perform or witness Commissioning and Start-up of the STS 2000A unit to validate the warranty.

  • Page 29: Make Power Connections

    As part of acceptance testing, the STS should pass a Performance Test at 80% load minimum. A PDI service technician will perform or witness the Site Acceptance Test as indicated in the "Site Acceptance Report.” The technician will then ask the customer representative to sign the completed Acceptance Test Report/Work Order.
