EMERGENCY TWO-HEAD LED EXIT
IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical equipment, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, including the
following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
All servicing should be performed by qualified personnel
only.
Do not mount near any heat producing equipment.
Equipment should be mounted in locations and at heights
where it will not be readily subjected to tampering by
unauthorized personnel.
The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the
manufacturer may cause an unsafe condition.
Do not use this equipment for other than intended use.
In Class I Division 2 locations, do not replace any
non-metallic hardware with metal hardware. Contact
authorized agent for factory replacement parts.
In Class I Division 2 areas, install equipment in
accordance with appropriate NEC articles plus any
other applicable codes.
To avoid static discharge, do not attach any ungrounded
metal hardware to the enclosure.
Do not store or place flammable materials near lamp.
Install only grounded wiring systems to supply this
equipment
CAUTION – ensure lamp heads are positioned
so they are aimed below horizontal

INSTALLATION AND OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
Do not use this equipment outdoors.
CAUTION: Halogen cycle lamp(s) are used in this
equipment. To avoid shattering: Do not operate
lamp in excess of rated voltage, protect lamp
against abrasion and scratches and against liquids
when lamp is operating, dispose of lamp with care.
Halogen cycle lamps operate at high temperatures.
Do not store or place flammable materials near lamp.
CAUTION: “To avoid electrical overload, total
connected lamp load (factory and field installed)
should not exceed output rating”.
Free installation area of hazardous atmospheres
before wiring equipment or servicing, this reduces
the risk of accidental explosion due to inadvertent
battery shorting during installation.
SAVE THESE
INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING – Shut off AC power to branch
circuits to which units will be connected. All
wiring should be per NEC wiring methods for
Hazardous locations.
To maintain warranty, equipment with
batteries must be installed or placed on charge
within prescribed period after shipment.

INSTRUCTIONS – INSTALLATION
1. Mount exit enclosure to wall using (4) thru holes or optional mounting feet. (See Figure 3).
2. Remove cover screws (2) and open cover. (See Figures 1 and 2).
3. Dismount exit lens by removing lens screws (4). (See Figures 1 and 2).
4. Connect ¾” conduit supply to ¾” hub on unit.
5. Hookup AC service to the connector assembly as follows:

Unused primary wire must be insulated individually to prevent shorting.
6. If Fire Alarm Flasher is used:
a. Connect WHITE wire to 24VDC Positive and 24VDC Negative
b. Use wire nuts for connection (not supplied).
7. Connect Battery connectors to the panel (See Figures 4 and 6).
8. Adjust head(s) as follows: (See Figure 3).
a. Rotation – Loosen head nut and rotate head to desired position. Retighten head nut. An antirotation screw has been
provided to ensure proper rotation.
b. Angle – Loosen thumb screw passing through head swivel sufficiently to allow internal teeth to disengage. Position
head to desired angle.
c. Retighten both head nut and thumb screw.
CAUTION – ensure lamp heads are positioned so they are aimed below horizontal
9. A dual load terminal block is provided for lamp hook-up. Ensure total wattage of heads, both unit mounted and remote (if
applicable), does not exceed unit rating. Factory mounted lamps are wired to the terminal block at points L+ and L-. All
remote loads should be wired to the terminal block at RL+ and RL- (See Figure 5). Use wire gauge that limits voltage drop to
an acceptable level (See page 6).
10. Chevron labels with self-adhesive backing are supplied. Apply label(s) to exit lens as necessary.
11. Remount exit lens using lens screws. Close cover and secure with cover screws.

Self Diagnostic System Operation – Emergency Light or EXIT Sign Products
Normal Power Up Sequence
At power up the red and green LED indicators will alternately flash for one to two seconds. Next the product will execute
a “Power Up Quick Test” causing the green LED indicator to flash rapidly. If any faults are detected during the “Power Up
Quick Test” these will be evident by a flashing red LED indicator. If the audible diagnostic option has been ordered, the
flashing red LED will be accompanied by a simultaneous beeping tone. (Note: A continuous rapid alternating Red/Green
flash with rapid beeping tone indicates 277V applied to 120V input lead. TURN OFF POWER IMMEDIATELY!)
Emergency Operation
Emergency operation occurs when AC power fails. The product remains in emergency operation until AC power is
restored or battery capacity is depleted. During emergency operation both red and green LED indicators are disabled.
User Interface
Green LED indicator
•Slow Flash/Continuous ON = AC power present; normal operating condition
•Rapid Flash = product performing an automatic or manually initiated diagnostic test
Red LED indicator
•Single Flash = battery fault
•Two Flashes = lamp failure (light bar failure – EXIT signs)
•Three Flashes = charger fault
•Four Flashes = transfer fault
(If more than one fault condition is present simultaneously, the red LED will flash the indication pattern for each
fault independently then repeat the cycle.)
Pushbutton Test Switch
•Long Press (longer than 0.5sec) transfers product to emergency operation during time the button is
pressed.
•Short Press initiates self diagnostic activities as follows:
One Press cancels diagnostic test presently running.
Two Presses starts a one minute diagnostic test.
Three Presses starts a 90 minute diagnostic test.
Four Presses conducts a lamp load calibration (emergency light products only).
Seven Presses initiates a system reset.
(Note: the microprocessor will allow up to seven, one minute diagnostic tests within the first 24 hours of
operation. Allow 24 hours of charging before performing any long duration testing.)
Buzzer (optional)– Sounds in unison with the flashing red LED if a fault condition is present. Buzzer may be
silenced for up to 196 hours by a short press of either the test switch or the optional IR remote control device
“silence” button. Correcting fault condition will cancel fault notification. Lamp failure indication requires a
manually activated diagnostic test after lamp replacement to cancel notification.

HZ Series EMERGENCY TWO HEAD LED EXIT
WIRING CALCULATIONS FOR VOLTAGE DROP PROTECTION
IN EMERGENCY LIGHTING SYSTEMS
TO DESIGN A PROPER EMERGENCY LIGHTING SYSTEM, CIRCUIT RUNS MUST BE OF SUFFICIENT SIZE TO MAINTAIN A PROPER
OPERATING VOLTAGE TO ALL LAMPS. MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE VOLTAGE DROP SHOULD NOT EXCEED 5%. PROPER WIRE SIZE
IS DETERMINED FROM THE FOLLOWING FORMULA, TABLE AND EXAMPLE SHOWN BELOW.
L =
CM x EI
CM=
I x 22 x L
I x 22
EI
CM = WIRE SIZE IN CIRCULAR MILLS
I = LOAD IN AMPERES (EMERGENCY MODE)
L = LENGTH OF WIRE RUN. (UNIT TO REMOTE LOAD)
EI =
I x 22 x L
I=
CM x EI
EI = MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE VOLTAGE DROP. (5%)
CM
L X 22
USING THE ABOVE FORMULA AND HAVING CALCULATED THE CIRCULAR MILLS REQUIRED TO CARRY THE SPECIFIED LOAD AT
A PREDETERMINED AND ALLOWABLE VOLTAGE DROP, THE FOLLOWING CHART WILL IDENTIFY THE NECESSARY WIRE GAUGE
FROM THE CORRESPONDING CIRCULAR MILL SIZE LISTED.

EI = MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE VOLAGE DROP 5% OF SELECTED VOLTAGE:
USING 6 VOLTS x .05 = .3 VOLTS.
