SERVICE/MAINTENANCE
Maintenance
This emergency lighting unit should be tested and maintained in accordance with National Electrical Code and NFPA 101 Life Safety
Code requirements. It is recommended that emergency light fixtures be tested for 30 seconds once a month and for 90 minutes once a
year.
Taking A Unit Out Of Service
If a unit is to be deliberately taken out of service for an extended period, the battery lead connector should be disconnected from the
charger circuit board and insulated so that the battery will go into storage in a fully charged condition.
Replacing The Battery
1. De-energize the AC power.
2. Disengage the housing cover from the backplate.
3. Disconnect the battery leadsfrom the charger circuit board.
4. Remove the battery from the clips inside the cover.
5. Replace with a new battery (see unit model label for correct part number) and reconnect leads.
6. Reassemble cover to backplate.
Replacing LED Lamps
The LED lamps inside the unit are not replaceable or field serviceable. Please see dual-lite.com for further assistance.
Troubleshooting
Emergency circuit does not work
• Batteries are shipped uncharged and disconnected. Connect battery leads and charge 24 hours before testing.
• Make sure the charger board and test button/light pipe are properly seated and aligned.
• Check wiring connections.

INSTALLATION
This unit is designed to be mounted on a wall or ceiling. Provide standard units with a single unswitched supply from a 120VAC, 240VAC,
or 277VAC branch circuit used for normal lighting in the area to be protected. For Spectron® self-testing/self-diagnostic units, provide unit
with a 120VAC or 277VAC branch circuit.
The EV unit is equipped with intelligent wiring. Connect the black wire from the unit to the hot
building wire (120-277VAC) and the white wire to the neutral building wire.
(Exception: The EV2DI-24K, EV2DIB-24K, EV4DI-24K, and EV4DIB-24K models should be
connected to 220-240VAC supplies only.)
Wall or Ceiling Mount – Back Power Feed
1. Remove appropriate KO’s in backplate to mount
backplate to junction box.
2. Remove center KO from backplate and feed supply
leads through.
3. Secure backplate to junction box.
4. To help with wiring, attach cover to backplate with
provided plastic hinge.
5. Connect wires from the unit to the building leads and
secure with wire nuts.
6. Connect battery lead to circuit board header as
shown.
7. For remote models, connect remote lighting load to
black(-) and red(+) pigtails from circuit board. When
connecting leads for remote lighting loads, observe
proper polarity to ensure proper operation.
8. Installer should now become familiar with the eyeball
aimability and its limitations.
Wall Mount – Surface Wiring (Top Power Feed Only)
1. Remove appropriate KO’s in backplate and
mount backplate to wall.
2. Feed wires through and secure conduit to
backplate.
3. Remove the breakout on top of the housing.
4. To help with wiring, attach cover to backplate
with provided plastic hinge.
5. Connect wires from the unit to the building
leads and secure with wire nuts.
6. Connect battery lead to circuit board header as
shown.
7. For remote models, connect remote lighting
loadto black(-) and red(+) pigtails from circuit board.
When connecting leads for remote lighting loads,
observe proper polarity to ensure proper operation.
8. Installer should now become familiar with the
eyeball aimability and its limitations.
INSTALLATION INSTALLATION
All EV units are shipped by default with the charger circuit board jumper in the “remote lampheads disabled” position,
as shown in Figure 1. The jumper needs to be moved to the “remote lampheads enabled” position shown in
Figure 2 if the model being installed is an EV4 (powering a remote unit).

Operation
“AC ON” LED is illuminated when AC power is present.
NOTE: All models are supplied with an AC Lockout 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 prolonged 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 malfunctions include –
Battery Disconnected Battery Fault Charger Fault LED Driver Fault Lamp Fault
Spectron equipped units also include:
Brownout protection: unit will automatically transfer to emergency operation upon detection of low AC power (approximately 80% of
nominal line).
Time Delay Retransfer: 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® option.
Green Operating Status LED:
The 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 auto-
matic or manual self-test cycles, the green Operating
Status LED will blink twice every second.
Red Service Alert LED:
Under normal operating conditions, the red Service Alert
LED indicator will remain off. If the Spectron® controller
detects a malfunction, the red Service Alert LED will blink
in the pattern listed in the following table:
Automatic Tests
The unit will automatically initiate a self-test/self-diagnostic
cycle based on the following table:
Testing Period Duration of Test
Once a month 1 minute
Once every 6
months
Alternating:
30 minutes or 60 minutes
Manual Tests
Using the unit test switch, users can initiate different
duration test cycles based on the following table:
Initiating Action Test Cycle
Press test switch once 1 minute
Press test switch twice 90 minutes
Pressing the test switch any time after a 90 min. test
cycle has begun cancels the remainder of the 90 min. test
and returns the unit to normal operation.
