! IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS !

WHEN USING ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, BASIC SAFETY 

PRECAUTIONS SHOULD ALWAYS BE  FOLLOWED, 

INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

  1.  Do not use outdoors.
  2.  Do not let power supply cords touch hot surfaces.
 3. This product is suitable for use in damp locations where the ambient temperature is 20ºC minimum, 30ºC maximum.  
    Product is not suitable for heated air outlets and wet or hazardous locations. DO NOT INSTALL NEAR GAS OR  
    ELECTRIC HEATERS. 
  4.  Equipment should be mounted securely in locations and at heights where it will not be readily subjected to  
    tampering by unauthorized personnel. 
  5.  The use of accessory equipment and replacement parts not recommended by the manufacturer may cause an unsafe  
   condition. 
  6.  Do not use this equipment for other than its intended purpose.
  7.  The AC voltage rating of this equipment is 120 or 277 VAC. Do not connect equipment to any other voltage.
  8.  This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.  Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 
    (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and  
    (2) This device must accept any interference that may cause undesired operation. 

Consumer Information :

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. 

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commer-

cial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance 

with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential 

area is likely to cause  harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. 

You must determine how the connected emergency lighting fixtures are to operate; normally-on (unswitched and 

always energized), normally-off (only energized during a power failure), or switched on/off.  Wire according to the 

appropriate wiring diagram given below. Consult factory for special wiring diagrams.

Ensure that ALL combined/connected Emergency lighting loads OVER this product's maximum emergency output 

rating (250 VA or 185 VA, depending on the model) are capable of being dimmed down to a power output of 10% 

from an industry standard 0-10V source.  

ELI-S-250 WILL ONLY deliver 250 VA and the ELI-S-185 WILL ONLY deliver 185 VA into the lighting load.  This is 

accomplished by automatically dimming the connected emergency lighting loads down to the products output power 

rating.

THIS PRODUCT INCLUDES RECHARGEABLE LEAD-ACID BATTERIES.  

THE BATTERIES MUST BE RECYCLED OR DISPOSED OF PROPERLY.
