22 Smart Distribution Panel with ATS
Emergency Manual Operation

Warning—before you operate the ATS manually

The procedures in this section only apply to situations where automatic operation through the ATS is
impossible. One example of such a situation is if the ATS monitoring unit were not functioning. If
automatic operation through the ATS is impossible, and you must power your load from the
generator, follow the instructions in “How to power the load from the generator” on page23.
Note
Only operate the ATS switches manually when automatic operation is disabled. If
automatic operation is enabled, the ATS will attempt to actuate the switches to return to
the preferred source.
DANGER
All transfers performed when automatic operation is disabled must be open
transfers—both switches must be OFF before turning ON the desired source’s
switch. Attempting a closed transfer will damage equipment.
