Installation Procedures: Connect an Emergency Power Off Switch

3.Test the EPO switch to ensure that it is wired and working correctly:

a.Place the Arm/Test rocker switch in the Test position. The EPO state LEDs will be off and the PDU display interface will show the following alarm (in addition to any other active alarms):

Active Alarm xxofxx

EPO Ready To Test

b.Engage the EPO switch. (If your switch is momentary, engage it with one person watching the EPO state LEDs, and another at the EPO switch.)

c.Observe the EPO LEDs. If the switch is wired and working properly, when the switch is engaged, both of the EPO state LEDs are red.

d.If the test was successful, place the Arm/Test rocker switch back to the Arm position. The PDU display interface will clear the EPO test mode alarm. If the test was not successful, see the troubleshooting chart:
