1.3 Start-up Procedure
1. Configure the power supply jumpers as described in “Jumpers” on page 10.
2. Install the power supply as described in“Installation” on page 14.
3. Program the power supply as described in “Programming Options” on page 19.
4. Wire the power supply circuits, referring to the options described in“Trouble Supervision” on
page 25 and the application examples in“Applications” on page 27.
5. Connect primary power source wiring while observing the following:
– Make certain that the AC mains circuit breaker is off before making any wiring connections
between the mains and the power supply.
– Make certain primary power source is 120 VAC, 60 Hz, 3.2 amps.
– Run a pair of wires (with ground conductor) from the protected premises main breaker box
to TB1 of the power supply main circuit board.
– Use 14 AWG (1.6 mm O.D.) or heavier gauge wire with 600V insulation.
6. Apply power to the power supply using the following procedure:
– Apply AC power by turning on the AC mains circuit breaker connected to the power supply.
– Connect a properly charged battery to connector JP4 on the power supply main circuit
board.
