this feature remove the factory­installed jumper on the rear­panel EPO connector and
connect to active-open
contacts that are normally
closed but open during an
emergency power o event.
Operating logic may be
reversed in the Settings menu.
If you do not use the EPO
connector, leave the factory­installed jumper in place and
the default (active open) EPO
setting in the Settings Menu.

5. External Battery Cabinet
Connection (Optional)

External battery cabinets
provide longer battery run-time
for connected devices. Refer to
PSI5TM User Guide, to select the
appropriate model and quantity
for your PSI5TM model and
applications. You can connect up
