STEP #2 INSTALLING THE EMERGENCY DRIVER
> Disconnect AC power from the LED luminaire.
> Mount the emergency LED driver by the mounting tabs using the supplied screws. The luminaire’s installation
instructions may provide guidance on the recommended mounting location.
> Mounting Height: Many factors inuence emergency illumination levels, such as the lamp load selected, luminare de-
sign, and environmental factors therefore end use verication is necessary. For eld installations, when the attached
luminaire is mounted at heights greater than 7.17ft (2.2m), the level of illumination must be measured in the end
application to ensure the requirements of NFPA 101 and local codes are satised.
> Remote Mounting: The emergency LED driver may be remote mounted from the luminaire if installed in accordanance
with the NEC. If used in conjunction with an AC driver the allowed distance is up to half the distance the AC driver
manufacturer recommends remote mounting the AC driver from the LED load. If used without an AC driver, and remote
mounting more than 5 feet from the luminaire, please consult the factory to determine the necessary wire gauge.
CAUTION: Remote mounting can result in reduced power output.

Lumens In Emergency Mode = Lumens per Watt of Fixture * Output Power of Chosen Product
________________(Lumens)_ = __________________(lm/W)_* ________6______(W)_
1. Ensure the LED load’s rated power is greater than or equal to the power output of this emergency LED driver. This is to
ensure that this emergency product will not produce more power than the LED load can handle, thus ensuring that the
LED load will not be damaged when the system is in the emergency mode.
2. Verify that the forward voltage of the luminaire’s LED array is within the limits of this emergency LED driver. The
forward voltage of the LED array is commonly designated as Vf and should be found on the luminaire markings, in
the luminaire specifications, or imprinted directly on the LED arrays. If multiple LED arrays are to be driven, verify that
the total forward voltage is within the limits of this product. Using a voltage meter, it may be possible to directly
measure the voltage across the LED arrays when operating from the AC driver.
3. Ensure the output current of the AC LED driver does not exceed 3.0 Amps.
4. Ensure there will be sufficient light output in the end application. Estimate the egress lighting illumination levels by
doing the following:
a. Find the efficacy of the LED load. This can be given by the luminaire manufacture. This number will be given in
lumens per watt (lm/w). It is the installer’s responsibility to validate the luminaire manufacturer’s efficacy data.
This can be accomplished by direct measurement, by review of independent 3rd party test data (UL, ETL, etc.),
accessing a public database of 3rd party data (such as Design Lights Consortium, www.designlights.org), or other
comparable means.
b. Lumens can be calculated by multiplying the output power of the emergency LED driver by the efficacy of the
LED load. In many cases the actual lumen output in emergency mode will be greater than this calculation gives,
however it will provide a good estimate for beginning the lighting design of the system.
c. Using the results of this calculation and industry standard lighting design tools, calculate the anticipated
illumination levels in the path of egress.
This product is suitable for field installation with suitable LED loads including LED luminaires, DC voltage driven LED
replacements for fluorescent lamps and others. There are four (4) checks to determine if your luminaire is eligible for field
installation.
NOTE: This product has been designed to reliably interface with a wide selection of LED loads and is electrically compatible
with every simple LED array that meets criteria 1 and 2 above. However, compatibility cannot be guaranteed with all current
and future LED systems. Compatibility testing of the end-use system is suggested. Please contact the factory with any
questions.
Installation of this emergency LED driver will vary based on the luminaire type, however, generally fol-
low these steps:
NOTE: After installation, it will be necessary to measure the egress lighting illumination levels to ensure it complies
with national, state, and local code requirements.
Make sure the necessary branch circuit wiring is available. An unswitched source of power is required. The emer-
gency driver must be fed from the same branch circuit as the AC driver.
INSTALLATION
STEP #1 DETERMINE SUITABILITY

3
Applying AC power to the unit activates the unit to enable the emergency circuit, the charger circuit, and supplies power to
the control/monitor circuit and charging indicator light. When AC power fails, the emergency driver automatically switches
to emergency mode, keeping the LED load illuminated at a reduced lumen output for a minimum of 90 minutes. When AC
power is restored, the emergency driver returns to charging mode.
OPERATION
This unit contains a control/monitor circuit that automatically performs a 30-second discharge test once a month and a
full 90-minute discharge test once a year. During routine testing, the emergency driver simulates an AC power failure
causing the unit to automatically switch to emergency mode. The unit will monitor the operation of the LED load, battery
voltage, LED load connections and emergency duration. At the end of this test, if the emergency system functions properly,
the unit will return to normal operation. Should the unit detect any problems, the indicator light will flash per failure
condition (see Troubleshooting guide) until the condition has been corrected and the unit passes the next test.
To reset a failure indication, turn off AC power to the emergency driver for a minimum of 10 seconds or briefly push the
test switch. If the condition has not been corrected by the next scheduled test, the unit will once again detect the failure
and signal the failure indicator.
To perform a manual self-diagnostic test, push and hold test switch for minimum of 5 seconds while AC power is
applied. Once the test switch is released the emergency driver will perform a 30 second diagnostic test. During this test,
unit will monitor the operation of the LED load, battery voltage, and LED load connections. If the emergency system
functions properly, the unit will return to normal mode. Should the unit detect any problems, the indicator light will flash
per failure condition (see Troubleshooting guide) until the condition has been corrected and the unit passes the next test.
To deactivate the unit for storage or shipping, press and hold the test button while the unit is in emergency mode
until the LED load is turned off.
STEP #4 WIRING THE EMERGENCY DRIVER
> Select the appropriate wiring diagram to connect the emergency driver to the AC driver and LED load.
Make sure all connections are in accordance with the National Electrical Code and any local regulations.
> After installation is complete, supply AC power to the emergency driver.
> At this point, power should be connected to both the AC driver and the emergency driver, and the Charging
Indicator Light should illuminate indicating the battery is charging.
> A short-term discharge test may be conducted after the emergency driver has been charged for one hour. Charge
for 24 hours before conducting a long-term discharge test. Refer to OPERATION.
> In a readily visible location, attach the label "CAUTION - This Unit Has More Than One Power Connection Point.
To Reduce The Risk Of Electric Shock, Disconnect Both The Branch Circuit-Breakers Or Fuses And Emergency
Power Supplies Before Servicing."
STEP #3 INSTALLING THE ILLUMINATED TEST SWITCH
> Mount the supplied Illuminated test switch in a location that is visible and ac-
cessible by maintenance personnel. The test switch mounts through a ½” hole
which may need to be made in the luminaire or could come pre-punched by the
luminaire supplier.
> Connect the test switch per wiring diagrams provided on these instructions.
> If wired correctly, the indicator light should be ON when AC power is
supplied to the xture indicating that the unit is charging. After installing, mark
with the "PUSH TO TEST" and "CHARGING INDICATOR LIGHT" labels.
