How can I check if my IOTA ILBHI SP 2H HE SD HV emergency lighting is working?

[SanLincoln]

To confirm your IOTA ILBHI SP 2H HE SD HV emergency lighting equipment is operational, follow these steps:

1. Automatic Testing: This unit performs self-tests to verify its emergency function. It tests for 60 seconds every month and for 120 minutes every 12 months. The system uses the Threaded Body Test Switch (TBTS) assembly for these tests. Any issues are indicated by the bi-color LED flashing. Consult Table A in the manual to interpret the diagnostic codes.

2. Manual Testing: You can manually test the system. Press and hold the TBTS test button for two seconds. Only initiate a manual test when the TBTS status indicator light is GREEN. The manual test lasts 60 seconds. You can stop it during the test by holding the TBTS for at least two seconds.

3. Load Calibration: This is necessary if you change the LED load connected to the emergency lighting. Load Calibration occurs automatically 48 hours after installation. To manually start this process sooner, hold the TBTS button for 20 seconds. Failures during Load Calibration are shown on the TBTS.

4. Maintenance: When maintaining the emergency lighting equipment, make sure the battery circuit is completely off. Follow the instructions in the manual to disconnect the AC power and the battery circuit before starting any maintenance work. After you're done, reconnect the TBTS and restore AC power to the emergency luminaire.

By following these testing and maintenance steps, all detailed in the manual, you can ensure your IOTA ILBHI SP 2H HE SD HV emergency lighting works correctly and is ready when needed.
