Emergency System Overview

ArcSystem drivers and fixtures can be purchased in UL924 listed variants. Each of the fixtures can be

configured to be UL924 listed when wired into an existing emergency response system. See

Installing 100–125 V Emergency Multi-Cell Fixtures

and

Installing 100–277 V Emergency

Multi-Cell Fixtures

Install the ArcSystem multi-cell fixture in a location that is accessible by qualified personnel for

testing of the emergency operation.

Note: Fixtures must be hard-wired to emergency certified drivers to be considered for

UL924 certification.

Note: Emergency fixtures must be installed in a high bay situation.

Note: The number of designated emergency lamps and their height is the responsibility of

the specifier and installer in order to achieve the minimum FC levels of NFPA101.

Installation scenarios should be evaluated by the AHJ to confirm illuminance and

performance requirements of ANSI/NFPA 101 and the IBC.

Note: ArcSystem Pro One-Cell Micro fixtures in emergency installations must be installed

with a maximum mounting height of 23.2 ft (7.07 m).

Note: Installation must follow all national and local codes for electrical equipment.

Note: Normal and emergency wiring cannot be contained in the same conduit according

to NEC 700.10(B).

ETC Installation Guide

ArcSystem Pro Multi-Cell

ArcSystem Pro Multi-Cell Page 6 of 24 ETC

Emergency drivers and fixtures require two branch circuit connections. These inputs have the

following functions:

1. Normal branch circuit to sense failure of the normal supply. Connect to Sense Input

connector.

2. Normal/Emergency branch circuit providing power to the fixture in both conditions.

Connect to Maintained Input connector.

Sense detects when power is lost and forces the fixture to a full-on state, powered by the emergency

supply through the Constant Power input. Control of the fixture will not be available until the sense

input has been restored.

WARNING: Do not mix 120 V and 277 V between the sense and emergency feeds.

AVERTISSEMENT : Ne pas inverser les alimentations à 120V et 277V entre les

alimentations de détection et de secours.

WARNING: Sense (normal) and Maintained (normal/emergency) feeds must have the

same phase. The diagram below shows the recommended installation.

AVERTISSEMENT : Les alimentations de détection (normale) et d’entretien

(normal/secours) doivent être sur la même phase. Le schéma ci-dessous présente

Before You Begin Installation

Review the following sections before beginning your ArcSystem installation. ArcSystem products

should only be installed by a qualified installer or electrician.

Power Disconnect Device

Before installation, make sure you have a main circuit breaker cabinet or other readily accessible

input power disconnect device installed ahead of your ArcSystem products.

WARNING: RISK OF DEATH BY ELECTRIC SHOCK! Failure to disconnect all power to the

system before installation, maintenance, cleaning, or any other system modification could

result in serious injury or death.

AVERTISSEMENT : RISQUE DE MORT PAR DÉCHARGE ÉLECTRIQUE! Négliger de

débrancher toutes les sources d’alimentation du système avant l’installation, l’entretien, le

nettoyage ou toute autre modification du système peut causer des blessures graves ou la

mort.

De-energize main feed to ArcSystem and follow appropriate Lockout/Tagout procedures as

mandated by NFPA 70E. It is important to note that electrical equipment such as breaker

panels can present an arc flash hazard if improperly serviced. This is due to the high

amounts of short-circuit current available on the electrical supply to this equipment. Any

work must comply with OSHA Safe Working Practices.

WARNING: Circuits that are installed without an accessible power disconnect device

cannot be serviced or operated safely.

AVERTISSEMENT : Il est imprudent d'utiliser ou de réparer les circuits installés sans

qu'un dispositif de déconnexion de l'alimentation ne soit accessible.

Installation Requirements

Indoor installation only: 0–40°C (32–104°F), 5–95% non-condensing humidity.

Dry locations only.

Installation location must support the weight of the fixture and applicable mounting hardware.

CAUTION: ArcSystem fixtures and drivers are not suitable for use in spaces with restricted

air flow. Enclosing the fixtures or drivers temporarily or permanently may cause damage to

the fixtures or drivers.

Installing 100–240 V Multi-Cell Fixtures

100–240 V multi-cell yoke mounted fixtures include the Pro Two-Cell, Pro Four-Cell Linear, Pro Four-

Cell Square, and Pro Eight-Cell. For 100–240 V Pro Four-Cell Round, see

Installing 100–240 V

Four-Cell Round Fixtures on the facing page

. For 100–277 V fixtures, see

Installing 100–277

V Multi-Cell Fixtures on page10

Note: Mounting hardware and installation location must support the weight of the fixture.

DMX

DMX In and DMX Thru cables terminate to RJ45 connectors. DMX is installed in a daisy chain

topology and includes one pair of wires (Data +, Data -) plus an ISO ground (common). ETC

recommends Cat5e (or better) minimum 24 AWG conductors terminated to T568B standard. Up to

32 fixtures can be connected per DMX run.

Installation Procedure

1. Attach a C-clamp or other mounting hardware (not provided) to the yoke of the fixture.

2. Attach the fixture to a pipe or other approved mounting device.

3. Insert or attach additional accessories, if desired.

4. Connect the provided power cable.

5. If using hard wired DMX, plug the RJ45 connector into the DMX in port on the rear of the

fixture.

6. If linking additional fixtures via DMX, plug a RJ45 cable into the DMX thru port on the rear of

the fixture.

Note: ArcSystem fixtures are not self terminating. You must terminate the last fixture in

line with a 120

resistor.

To purchase an RJ45 terminator, please contact your ETC customer service representative

and request part number N4086.

7. Toggle the power switch to “ON".

8. Rotate the fixture so it is roughly focused to its final resting position. This will assist in final

focus procedures.
