Briggs & Stratton Power Products Backup Power System

Owner’s Manual

A switch on the control panel is labeled “Set Exercise” (depicted on page 10).The specific day and the specific time of day this switch is pressed is programmed into the control board memory.This date and time is then used to automatically initiate the system exercise cycle.

To perform the Set Exercise procedure:

1.Choose the day and time you want your backup power system to exercise.

2.On that day and time, set the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to OFF.

3.Press and hold down the “Set Exercise” switch.The Diagnostic LED blinks.

4.Hold the switch down until the Diagnostic LED stops blinking. Release the Set Exercise switch.

5.Set the AUTO/OFF/MANUAL switch to AUTO.“Set Exercise” is complete.

For example, if you press the “Set Exercise” switch on Sunday morning at 10:00 AM, the unit will run an exercise cycle the following Sunday at 10:00 AM.

NOTE: “Set Exercise” will only work if the unit is in the Automatic mode and this exact procedure is followed.The exerciser does not need to be re-set if the 15 Amp fuse is removed or changed.The exerciser will need to be re-set if the 12 Volt DC battery is disconnected.

If you want to change the day and time the unit exercises, simply perform the “Set Exercise” procedure at the exact weekday and time you want it to take place.
