2 Connect the batteries using the provided items:
a. Red battery lead (1 off)
b. Black battery lead (1 off)
c. Short battery interlink lead (1 off).
One end of each battery lead is fitted with a connector.
The other end of the red and black battery leads
should be connected to the battery charger
termination block (TB8) located in the bottom, right-
hand corner of the Main PCB.
Note: The insulation on the end of the red and black
battery leads has been semi-stripped to facilitate
connection to the termination block TB8.
3 Remove the semi-stripped insulation from the end of
each battery lead. Terminate the end of each battery
lead to the appropriate terminal on termination block
TB8: the red lead to the +ve connection and black
lead to the -ve connection.
4 Connect the other end of the red lead to the +ve
terminal of one battery and the black lead to the -ve
terminal of the other. Connect one end of the short
interlink lead to the +ve connector of one battery (refer
to drawing at left).
Note: The order of connecting mains and batteries
to the panel is not important.
5 Turn on the AC mains supply, or connect the battery
interlink lead, and verify that after power up the
following indications occur:
i The POWER LED lights.
ii The buzzer sounds.
Note: This is true for both mains and batteries only. If
using batteries only, ensure that they are kept
charged. If the batteries are in a poor state of
charge they will fail the battery load test and a
PSU fault will be indicated. See the note at left
regarding battery load testing.
6 When the panel is powered up the Fault and Power
Supply Fault LEDs will light and the buzzer will operate
intermittently.
7 Press the RESET pushbutton to extinguish the Fault
and Power Supply Fault LEDs and mute the buzzer.
Note: If the panel indicates that fault(s) are still present
DO NOT continue with panel commissioning until
ALL such faults have been cleared. Refer to
Section 6.10 Fault Finding Chart.
8 With no fault indications the panel is now ready for
the commissioning tests to be carried out.

Layout of battery terminals may
vary from that shown above.

Battery Load Test
With the batteries connected the panel
performs a regular battery wiring integrity test.
A failure occurs if the measured resistance
is out of range on two succesive tests.
A test failure is indicated by a PSU fault.
Check for poor battery wiring connections and
remedy.
If the batteries require charging the test is
suspended for up to12 hours, to allow time for
the batteries to recover, and re-applied.
