ABB Stanilite T8 Nexus RF Installation Manual

Testing precautions
Once the fitting is permanently connected to the
mains supply, a commissioning discharge test as
required in AS/NZS 2293.2 must be carried out.
You will need to allow 24 hours for the battery to
fully charge prior to conducting this test,
presently (at the time of writing), the standard
requires that fittings operate in emergency mode
for a period not less than 2 hours for their
commissioning test and for not less than 90
minutes thereafter (it is required that 6 monthly
discharge tests be carried out). You will need to
keep the records for the commissioning test and
enter them into the building emergency services
logbook or via other recording methods as
allowed by AS/NZS 2293.2.
Troubleshooting guide
If you have installed and connected the fitting as per the instructions listed earlier and it does
not function correctly, use the following table as a guide to fixing the problem. Look up the
type of fault in the left column and check the possible causes from the right column.
If the fitting still does not work after checking these possible causes, contact ABB customer

Construction sites
Continuously switching off the mains power
supply that is connected to emergency light
fittings during the construction phase of an
installation will cause these fittings to discharge
and charge their batteries many times over a
short period; this can shorten life of the battery.
ABB does not recommend such practices and
may not honour the warranty on batteries when
they are subjected to such harsh operating
conditions. Emergency light fittings are designed
to be discharge tested once every 6 months as
per AS/NZS 2293.2, subjecting the product to
repeated discharge or charge cycles is regarded
as an abuse of the fittings.
Possible causes
AC supply not connected; or
AC supply turned off
Switch active supply turned off; or
Missing loop from unswitched to switched active; or
Lamp damaged; or
Lamp not inserted properly
Lamp damaged or lamp not inserted properly; or
Battery pack not connected; or
Battery pack damaged; or
Test switch damaged
Battery pack not connected; or
LED wire not properly inserted into the terminal
block
Battery not fully charged (allow up to 24 hours); or
Battery pack damaged
Fitting self checks fail - return to manufacturer
Fitting is not receiving communication signal. Check
data cable wiring path and cable connections. Refer
to Nexus RF user guide.
