5. LABELS

Attach the appropriate labels adjacent to the

TBTS. Annotate Replacement Label with identical manufacturer part

number(s). The Caution and the Replacement labels must be on the fixture in a readily visible location to anyone

attempting to service the fixture.

6. WIRINg ThE A.C. INPUT

A. The

ILB and A.C. driver MUST be on the same branch circuit.

B. The

ILB requires an unswitched A.C. power source of either 120 or 277 volts; therefore when used with

switched fixtures, the ILB input must be wired ahead of the switch. Select the proper voltage lead and cap the

unused lead.

C. Refer to the wiring diagrams on the back page for the proper wiring. For wiring diagrams not shown, consult

our customer service.

7. COmPLETINg INSTALLATION

When the installation is complete, switch the A.C. power on and join the

ILB unit connector.

OPERATION

Normal Mode – A.C. power is present. The A.C. driver operates the LED load as intended. The ILB is in the standby

charging mode. The

Charge Indicator will be lit providing a visual indication that the battery is being charged.

Emergency Mode – The A.C. power fails. The ILB senses the A.C. power failure and automatically switches to the

Emergency Mode. One or multiple LEDs are illuminated, for a minimum of 90 minutes. When the A.C. power is restored,

the

ILB switches the system back to the Normal Mode and resumes battery charging. See page 1 of the Instruction

manual.

TESTING & MAINTENANCE

Pressing the

Test Switch turns off the light on the Charge Indicator and forces the unit into emergency mode, inter-

rupting power to the designated A.C. driver. The LED load is now being lit by the

ILB unit. After releasing the Test

Switch, the fixture returns to normal operation after a momentary delay. To simulate a “BLACK OUT” use the circuit

breaker to turn off A.C. power.
Initial Testing – Allow the unit to charge approximately 1 hour, then conduct a short discharge test. Allow a 24 hour

charge before conducting a one hour test.
The

ILB is a maintenance free unit, however, periodic inspection and testing is required. NFPA 101, Life Safety Code,

outlines the following schedule:
Monthly – Insure that the Charge Indicator light is illuminated. Conduct a 30 second discharge test by depressing the

Test Switch. At least one LED should operate at reduced output.
Annually – Insure that the Charge Indicator is illuminated. Conduct a full 90 minute discharge test. The unit should

operate as intended for the duration of the test.

“Written records of testing shall be kept by the owner for inspection by the authority having jurisdiction.”

SERVICING SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.
