SEL ADX142857 INSTALLATION

1. De-energize the circuit at the junction box (J-box) where the emergency light is to be installed.
2. Open the emergency light by inserting a screwdriver in the two slots at the bottom of the unit, then tipping the cover-up off of the backplate.
3. To mount to a junction box - Drill out the appropriate mounting pattern and the wire pass hole in the backplate to fit the J-box being used.
4. To mount to conduit – Cut out the U-shaped knockout on the cover using snips, then attach the 1/2” conduit hub to the backplate.

5. Once the backplate is secured, the housing can be held in place during installation using the EZ Hang feature. (see Fig. 1)

   

6. Connect the incoming wires to the fixture’s power supply wires using the wire nuts provided. Connect the white wire to the neutral. If using 120V, connect the black wire to the hot lead. If using 277V, connect the orange wire to the hot lead. Cap the unused lead. Secure the emergency light to the wall and/or junction box using installer-supplied hardware.
7. Connect the battery to the PCB. See the schematic for details.
8. Snap the cover onto the backplate.
9. Energize AC supply. The test button should illuminate, and LED heads will illuminate briefly when the test button is pushed.
10. Adjust the heads as needed.
11. If the fixture is to be powered down for an extended period after initial installation, replace the EZ Key. This will prevent the battery from discharging when AC power is removed. However, it will also prevent the battery from charging when AC power is restored, so it must be removed once the unit is ready for regular operation.

OPERATION
Depress the test switch. The LED heads will remain lit and the charge LED will extinguish. LED heads will illuminate as long as the button is pushed. Release the test switch. The charge LED will illuminate and the LED heads will turn off.

MAINTENANCE
None required. Replace the batteries as needed according to ambient conditions. However, we recommend that the equipment be tested regularly in accordance with local codes.

NOTE: Servicing of any parts should be performed by qualified personnel. Only use replacement parts supplied by Cooper Lighting Solutions.

CAUTION: This equipment is furnished with a sophisticated low-voltage battery dropout circuit to protect the battery from over-discharge after its useful output has been used. Allow 24-hour recharge time after installation or power failure for 90-minute testing.

Setup Guide

To operate the Cooper Lighting Solutions Sure-Lites SEL ADX142857, follow these steps:
