The battery backup test passed!
The test was aborted by LR. This will happen when LR restarts, or a map is loaded.
The test was canceled by the user.
LR could not communicate with the light to start the test.
LR thinks it should be able to talk to the fixture, but after it sends the command to start the test it did not receive a reply. Could be a sign of a flakey or congested network. Looking at the log around the time of the test start might have some more clues.
The light was disabled in the map file (via Commissioner), so LR is not going to try to start the test. Uncommon.
LR started the test on the light but has not had a chance to check its status yet. This condition should not last for more than one minute or so.
LR can communicate with the light, but internally the fixture is having issues with the BB controller. This can be caused by the light being in emergency power mode (i.e. no AC present), or some internal I2C problem.
Most common cause for DLE: Internal power on BBD43 being disconnected.
The status indicator on the BBD43 should be a triple red blink and visible from the floor
Connecting internal power on BBD43 should resolve issue.
Can indicate that the light is in emergency power mode (i.e. no AC power).
LR was able to command the light to start the test, but later was not able to check the test status for more than 15 minutes.
The light reports that it has no battery packs, or the connection to the battery backup controller is not working.
Note: If a DLE-48 has one battery attached, then it will display “Certification mismatch” as the error.
The battery discharged before the test time completed (typically long test only). This can happen if the battery hasn’t had time to fully recharge after an earlier test or being in emergency (no AC) mode.
The battery pack is disconnected from the battery backup controller circuitry.
The battery pack is reporting an over-temperature condition.
Wiring error. For DLE this indicates the red/black LB power harness connected to PSU and not battery. Data connector properly connected.
The output of the emergency voltage regulator was incorrect. This is distinct from the battery voltage.
Voltage out of range means that it when it energized the emergency output, the load was either too low or too high. Most common cause is failing to actually hook up the output. The push button test should catch it during installation though unless they didn’t push it while installing.
Since the electricians hook up the BBD to the CLE2 onsite, there are 3 possibilities if the fixture is outputting light normally aside from this error:
-BBD wiring bypassed
-BBD wiring backwards (output hooked up to driver instead of LEDs)
-BBD wiring polarity reversed on both ends
The light is in emergency power (no AC) mode.
Battery was depleted before or during the test.
Possible causes:
One of the lightbars cannot be reached.
The 2-wire power connector at the fixture is disconnected.
DLE2 on 2.1.24 firmware. This can be solved by upgrading the DLEs from 2.1.24 to 2.1.30 and all DLE2s with BB should be upgraded to 2.1.30.
The firmware detected a problem setting up the mask that changes the bar light outputs (unlikely)
Possible Troubleshooting:
Upgrade to 2.1.30 or latest DLE2 firmware (if newer available)
Check for type 6 events in the logs it should be informative. If possible, reading from the LightBar registers would be helpful. Can also check if reported power values for those fixtures is accurate.
The light and the battery backup controller do not agree on the certification (UL or CE) configuration.
