Quick Links

"AC On" LED is illuminated when AC power is present.
NOTE:
All models are supplied with an AC lock-out circuit, which prevents the emergency lights from illuminating when the battery is connected
and no AC power is present.
NOTE:
All models are supplied with a Low Voltage Disconnect circuit which prevents damage to the battery from deep discharge during pro-
longed emergency operation.
NOTE:
Batteries are often shipped in a discharged state - this is normal. The battery will require charging. Allow 24 hours of charging before
testing the unit.
Models with Spectron
Self-Testing/Self-Diagnostic Circuitry
®
Models equipped with the Spectron
self-testing/self-diagnostic electronics system provide:'
®
• Visual indication of AC power status
• Visual indication of self-diagnostic test status and results
Visual indication of any unit malfunction include
• Battery Disconnected
• Battery Fault
Spectron® equipped signs also include:
Brown-out protection: sign will automatically transfer to emergency operation upon detection of low AC power (approximately 80% of nominal
line).
Time Delay Re-Transfer: upon return of normal AC power, unit will remain in emergency mode for an additional 15 minutes to allow AC power to
stabilize.
LED Status Indicator
A bicolor LED (Green/Red) is provided on the control panel of all models equipped with the Spectron
Green Operating Status LED
Serves as both an AC power and self-test indicator. During normal operation, the Green Operating Status LED will be illuminated indicating the
presence of AC power. During all automatic or manual self-test cycles, the Green Operating Status LED will blink twice every second.
