NOTE: Emergency lighting systems should be tested in
accordance with NFPA 101 or as often as local codes
require, to ascertain that all components are operational.
NOTE: Allow batteries to charge for 24 hours before initial
testing.
Manual testing:
If the batteries are sufficiently charged, either press and release
the "TEST" button or use the RTKITHLP (remote tester
accessory, up to 40' away for SDRT units only) on the bottom of
the unit to activate a 60-second test, during which the lamps will
turn on. Triggering either option a second time will enable a 90-
minute tests indicated by 5 flashes of the lamps. Triggering
either option a third time will disable manual testing.
Self-Diagnostics (SDRT feature)
Units with this option automatically perform a 5-minute self-
diagnostic test of the charging electronics, battery, and lamps
every 30 days, and a 90-minute test every year, indicating
system status as shown in the table at right. First self test
occurs after 15 days of continuous AC Power.
Postponing a self-test:
If an automatic self-test occurs at a time when it is not desirable
for the unit lamps to be on, it can be postponed for 8 hours
either by pressing and releasing the "TEST" button or by using
RTKITHLP (remote tester accessory, up to 40' away).
Cancelling emergency operation:
Press and hold the "TEST" button for several seconds or
deactivate using the RTKITHLP (remote tester accessory, up to
40' away), during which the status indicator will flash until the
lamps turn off. This restores the AC Reset state in which the
unit is shipped.
Caution: This equipment monitors the lamp load. If the
loading is changed, the derangement signal requires
calibration (referred to Load-Learning feature) to ensure
proper operation.
Load-Learning feature:
Self-Diagnostic units automatically 'learn' their total connected
lamp load during the first scheduled self-test (~15 days). The
load-learning process can be initiated manually and should be
initiated whenever the total connected lamp load of the unit is
changed, or potentially troubleshooting a lamp error (unit
indicates a lamp error yet all lamps are operating correctly) or a
lamp is replaced.
To clear the current load-learn, press and hold the "TEST"
button for 7 seconds (count flashes), during this period the
lamps will turn on. After 7 seconds, release the button, the
lamps will turn off within 2 seconds indicating load clear is
complete. If lamps stay on longer, the load clear was not
successful and the process should be repeated. A new load
learn will automatically take place at the next discharge from a
fully charge state (solid green status indicator).
Clearing a failure indication:
After a failure condition has been corrected and power is
restored to the unit, clear the failure indication either by
pressing the "TEST" button once or by using the RTKITHLP
(remote tester accessory, up to 40' away).
TESTING and MAINTENANCE
Disable / Enable Scheduled Testing:
Briefly press the "TEST" button. While the lamps are on in Test mode,
press the "TEST" button again and hold it for 6 seconds (count green
flashes on status LED), then release the "TEST" button. The status
indicator will then show 5 short amber flashes and the lamps will turn
off. This amber flashing indicates disabling of future automatically-
scheduled testing.
To re-enable scheduled testing, repeat the above procedure. The five
short status indicator flashes will be green to indicate that scheduled
testing is now enabled.

IMPORTANT BATTERY INFORMATION:
Batteries
recommended that the batteries receive an initial charge within
the first twelve months of the manufacture date of the fixture. In
many cases, batteries beyond the initial charge recommendation
time frame will recover if fully charged soon after installation. If
such a battery does not recover after a full initial charge, it should
be replaced. The manufacture date can be found on the outside
of the unit packaging and on the product label as part of the Date
Code / Series. The first two digits in the date code represent the
year and the second two digits represent the month.
Remote Test (SDRT):
Units with the self-diagnostics/remote test feature allows manual
test activation using a laser pointer. Aim the laser beam straight
onto the circular area labeled near the "TEST" button for a few
moments to activate a 60-second test. (See also "Manual testing")
A test in progress may be cancelled by aiming the beam at the
test area again. NOTE: The remote tester should not be used to
initiate the Load Learning feature.
