will display "Cannot start battery test at present".

(e) There is a 1:4 "Failure to Next Test" inhibit time ratio.

another Battery Test until after 2 minutes (4 x 30 seconds).

(f) Pressing the "ACK" key at any time terminates the Battery Test.

(g) For New Zealand mode FIPs, no test load is applied to the battery. The FIP itself is

the only required load.

time every day except Saturday, Sunday and for the user configured dates.

The test is applied for 1 hour and indicates as “Battery Testing” on the LCD. Any test

failure indication on the "CHGR/BATT FLT" LED indicator will last for the remainder

of the 1 hour test period, unless it is cleared by executing a SYSTEM FAULTS

RESET.

During automatic battery test failure, the FIP will signal DEFECT (FAULT) to the

brigade. An RZDU will signal battery low to the FIP, for a test failure.

If enabled, a battery test is briefly applied every 15 to 63 seconds (depending on the

programmed setting) to determine whether the battery is connected, i.e. it can supply

power to the system.
