1. For wall mount, secure backplate to junction box (screws provided with junction box), and feed input source
wires through center hole in rear panel. Note: this unit has a wide input range, 120V-277V, eliminating the
need for special wiring based on the input voltage.
2. Connect input power leads (120V-277V) to black lead from unit; neutral to white lead and ground to green
lead. Once all connections have been made, feed all wires and wire nuts through the center knockout of the
rear panel into the junction box.
NOTE: For wall switch functionality, refer to Section 5 for wiring details.
3. For conduit mounting, remove NPT ½" (refer to Figure 3A), feed input source wires through the conduit and
opening in rear panel into the unit. Secure the conduit to the rear panel then connect input power leads per
step 2 above.
For conduit mounting (Note 3):
Step 2: Remove NPT ½" Pipe

module.
4. Make correct heat pad connection if unit has heat pad option (See Section 9).
5. Turn on AC source power and press test button, proper function is indicated if LED array turns on.
6. For conduit mounting, remove NPT ½" (refer to Figure 3A), feed input source wires through the conduit and

MAINTENANCE:
Replace the batteries as needed according to ambient conditions. This product contains Ni-cad
batteries. Used batteries may not be disposed of in the municipal solid waste stream. The
batteries must be recycled or disposed of properly. For information on local recycling drop-off
points, visit www.call2recycle.org or call toll free at 877-2-RECYCLE.

SECTION 5: OPERATION WITH PHOTOSENSORAC ONLY
On the LED driver module, there is a slide switch that must be
positioned to the right (factory default setting) to allow the unit
to utilize the photosensor capabilities (and optional passive
infra-red sensor).

(Figure 8)
Battery backup (EM) units have the same on/off
control as described in Section 2, refer to wiring
details (Figure 7). Slide switch must be in original
position (factory default setting) to utilize photosensor
(Figure 5).
For wall switch functionality, toggle the slide switch to the
left position. This will disable the photosensor operation
allowing the wall switch to turn the LED array on/off.

2. FOR 277VAC OPERATION UNITS, HEAT PAD CONNECTIONS MUST BE CHANGED BY
INSTALLER PRIOR TO TURNING UNIT ON. Connect red wire (from LED driver module) and
blue wire (from heat pad) using a wire nut and cap unused black wire (from heat pad) with wire
nut (Refer to Figure 9A below).
If unit heat pad option for cold weather, INSTALLER MUST VERIFY AC INPUT SOURCE VOLTAGE TO
DETERMINE APPROPRIATE WIRING PRIOR TO TURNING THE FIXTURE ON.
Refer to the instructions below for voltage dependent instructions:
WARNING:
DAMAGE MAY OCCUR IF HEAT PAD IS WIRED INCORRECTLY
FOR 277VAC OPERATION.
1. For 120VAC operation, there is no need to change wiring within the unit. Heat pad has been connected
for 120VAC input as a factory default setting ( Figure 9).

duration required.
Press test button once
1 minute test
Press test button twice
5 minutes test
Press test button 3 times
30 minutes test
Press test button 4 times
90 minutes test
1.When AC Power is supplied to fixture, the unit will automatically initiate a self-test and self
diagnostic test as follows:
A). Verifies battery connection, charger board failure, lamp failure and transformer
failure every 4 seconds.
B). One minute self-testing every month.
C). 90 minutes self-testing on the 12th month of each year after fixture has been installed.
SECTION 11: TESTING AND TROUBLE SHOOTING
To manually test battery backup (EM) units, use test switch to simulate AC power outage. The LED array
will turn on and LED indicator will turn off. Release the switch to automatically restore AC/Battery charge
mode. Units with Self Diagnostics/ Self test capabilities will automatically perform a self test and diagnostic
function monthly. Self test will disable charger and turn on LED array to check the load, battery and transfer
function. Test will be performed only if the battery is fully charged.
Testing for longer periods of time is best accomplished by turning off AC circuit power. Fixtures should be
tested in accordance with the National Electric Code and NFPA Life Safety Code
NOTE: the batteries will take some time to reach full charge after a prolonged test, and the unit cannot
provide full operation should a real power outage occur before the batteries recharges to full capacity. It is
recommended that long duration tests be limited to once yearly, and be conducted when the area will be
unoccupied afterwards.
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE:
If the LED array or indicator does not illuminate check the following:
1. Check AC Supply - verify that there is continuous power supplied to the fixture
2. Check if the unit may be shorted
3. Verify the battery leads are connected
4. If the battery was discharged, permit the unit to charge for 24 hours minimum then re-test
5. If the above checks do not resolve the issue, contact the factory for assistance.
