IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be
followed including the following:

READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS

1. All servicing should be performed by qualified service personnel.

2. Do not use outdoors.

3. Do not let power supply cords touch hot surfaces.

4. Do not mount near gas or electric heaters.

5. Use caution when handling batteries. Avoid possible shorting.

6. Equipment should be mounted in locations and at heights where it will not
readily be subjected to tampering by unauthorized personnel.

7. The use of accessory equipment not rec ommended by the manufacturer
may cause an unsafe condition.

8. Do not use this equipment for other than intended use.

Use flexible
conduit only

Installation Instructions

1. Turn off AC power.

2.

Route AC unswitched circuit of rated voltage into junction box and leave 6" of
wire length.

3. Remove the backplate by pressing on the tabs (see fig. 2) with a screw ­driver.

4. Locate the AC connector (if applicable) an d attach to the AC circuit (or to the
line cord for units with such an option). Refer to step 7.

5. Determine the desired position of the test switch (see fig. 5) before mounting
the backplate.

6. Choose the proper mounting solution below and continue to step 7.

NOTE: For units with a safety wire, install the safety wire (see figure 1), after install­ing the back plate, as a means to support the unit while making connections. Insert
one of the screws, used for fixing the backplate to the mounting surface or junction
box, through the lug on the end of the safety wire before screwing it in place.

Important: all AC or DC connections must be done in individual external
junction boxes.

a. Junction box mounting

Knock out the proper hole patt er n in the back cover to mount to a standard
junction box. Route the AC supply leads or connector through the large

knockout and mount the backplate to the junction box (see fig. 3a).

b. Ceiling mount

Caution! DO NOT install unit to the ceiling unless its model number
includes the suffix "CM".

For installation instructions refer to the addendum for ceiling mount.

c. Flexible conduit entry mounting

For conduit entry, mount the backplate to the wall. Break out the conduit
hole on the housing (see fig. 3c). Assemble the conduit to the backplate.

Mount the backplate to the wall. Install the strain relief (see fig. 3b). Using
pliers, crimp strain relief onto the line cord. Keeping pressure on the pliers,
insert the strain relief into the pre-drilled hole on the housing.

7. Make the proper connections. The system can accept input voltages of 120/
277 VAC (see fig. 4).
120 VAC — Connect the black (120 VAC) and white (neutral) leads to the
building utility. Insulate the unused wire.
120 VAC with line cord (optional) — Before making the connections, fol­low the line cord installation instruction in section 6e. Make the proper con­nections. Connect the wire with the smooth side from the line cord to the
black (120 VAC) on the unit and the ridged wire from the line cord to the
white (neutral) on the unit. Insulate the unus ed wire. Conn ect the g reen wi re
on the transformer (if applicable) or insulate the unused green wire from the
line cord.
277 VAC — Connect t he o ra nge (277 VAC) an d whi te (neu tr al) le ads to the
building utility. Insulate the black wire.

Route entry wires to avoid contact with the transformer, battery terminals
and charger PCBA. Refer to figure 4.

8. Connecting external lamps: pass external DC wires into the unit and connect
to internal lamp wires or directly to the PCBA depending on the model.

9. When ready to energize AC circuit, connect the battery.

10. Slide the housing over the tabs; conduit si de on housing over conduit side
on backplate (see fig. 5). Assemble the co nduit side first, then align the tabs
on the other side of the housing and of the backplate. Press together until it
snaps.

11. Remove the clear lens by prying with a screwdriver, where indicated (see fig.

2).

12. Rotate heads to desired position and replace clear lens.

13. Energize AC. The AC pilot indicator, located under the cover, will illuminate
(see fig. 5).

Provider Series - Emergency lighting

Important: all AC or DC connections must be done in
individual external junction boxes.

Vandal resistant (option)

Units with vandal resistant option: there are three vandal resis tant scre ws . Two
are securing the cover , and the other one secures th e housing and t he backplate
(see fig. 6).

Unit testing

Manual testing

Press test switch (see fig. 5). The emergency lamps will illuminate. When switch
is released, lamps will go off. Allow unit to charge for 24 hours before initial test­ing.

Automatic testing and diagnostics

The automatic testing and diagnostic function includes a micro-controller which
self-tests the unit on a monthly basis and identifies as well displays failures of
the electrical components: battery, battery charger, lamps.

Self-test

The self-test is performed every month for 1 minute, every 6 months for 30
minutes, and annually for 90 minutes.

Diagnostic function

–For diagnostic function, refer to “User Manual for AD”
–For Nexus models, refer to “Nexus a ddendum”

Maintenance

None required.
If AC supply to the unit is to be disconnected for 2 months or more, the battery
must be disconnected.
