Alpha enclosures are engineered to properly vent the power supply. The power supplies have been
investigated by regulatory authorities for use in various Alpha enclosures. If you are using a non-
Alpha enclosure, it is your responsibility to ensure your combination conforms to your local regulatory

requirements and the power supply remains within its environmental specifications.

NOTE:

Batteries are an important part of the power supply. Properly install and test all batteries,
battery connections and battery cables before you connect them to the power supply.

NOTE:

Output 2 is available only if the optional PIM is installed.

Use Output 1B to power auxiliary loads, such as cooling fans.

1.

Verify the Inverter Module’s battery breaker is OFF.

2. Connect battery cables to battery input connector.

3. Insert temperature probe cable.

4.

Insert Local/Remote Indicator (LRI) cable. (Optional)

5.

Connect status monitoring connectors, including tamper switch (if installed).

6.

Verify SPI switch is in “ALT” position.

7.

Connect the SPI (network load) to the Output 1A connector.

8.

Connect an auxiliary load (i.e. fan) to the Output 1B connector (If optional

factory installed PIM has been installed).

9.

Turn on AC breaker (located on enclosure) and verify correct (per unit’s

nameplate voltage) utility voltage at outlet; if correct, plug in XM2 line cord
to the utility outlet.

10.

Switch the Inverter Module’s battery breaker ON.

11. Verify no alarms are present (it may take up to 60 seconds for alarms to

clear).

12. Perform self-test. Initiate the self-test by simultaneously pressing the DOWN

arrow key and ENTER key. Wait for Self-test completion before proceeding.
