7. Replace the battery cables, WHITE to the
NEGATIVE (-) post and BLACK to the POSITIVE
(+) post. Tighten the wing nuts. Slide the
switch on the front of the controller to the
type of battery used with the system
(maintenance free battery or non-
maintenance free battery).
8. Insert the fluid sensor in the top of the
battery. (a) If your battery has six (6) caps
on the top, rinse and dry the bottom of the
yellow cap with the extra hole from the old
battery to remove any residue. Replace the
battery cap in the cell that is 2nd from the
POSITIVE post with the cap from the old
battery. Insert the fluid sensor in the cap.
(b) If your battery has two caps, each
covering three (3) battery cells, insert the
fluid sensor in the top of the battery next to
the arrow. (c) If using a maintenance free
battery you must attach the fluid sensor to
the positive post of the battery to silence the
fluid alarm.
9. Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.
(You should provide additional protection for
the control unit by using a surge protector.)
10. If any of the alarms are sounding, press the
GRAY button on the front of the control
panel for one (1) second.

The unit is not receiving AC power
There are several causes for power failure. The
most common is a power outage by your electric
company. During this emergency, the Pro Series
system will automatically switch to battery
power and protect your basement from flooding.
You can silence the “AC power failure” alarm for
24 hours by pressing the GRAY button for five (5)
seconds. The alarm will be silence, but the light
will stay on. The system will continue to operate
while the power alarm is silenced. After 24
hours, the alarm will reset automatically.
1. If the power is on in the rest of the house,
check the home circuit breaker or fuse box for
failure, and correct the problem.
2. Check the power cord. Make sure it is securely
plugged into the wall outlet. Make sure the
outlet is working properly.
3. The control unit may have received a power
surge. (a) Check the AC fuse located on the
back panel of the control unit. First, unplug
the control unit from the wall outlet. Then,
unscrew the barrel fuse and check to see if the
wires in the fuse are intact. To remove the
barrel fuse, push in and turn counter
clockwise. Replace the fuse by pushing it in
and turning clockwise. (b) If the wires are
burned and broken, replace the fuse with a 5
amp glass barrel fuse, commonly found at
hardware stores and auto supply stores. Plug
in the control unit. (You should provide
additional protection for the control unit by
using a surge protector.) If the fuse blows
again, call Glentronics technical support at
800-991-0466, option #3.
The control unit must receive 115 volts AC +/-
5% from the AC outlet. Any voltage lower than
110 volts will activate the power failure alarm.
Lower voltages can be caused by utility company
brown outs or a heavy power draw from other
appliances on the same circuit. Reduce the
number of appliances on the circuit.

The pump or DC fuse is defective
Unplug the main AC pump before servicing
the backup pump to avoid electric shock.
Failure to do so could cause serious injury or
death.
REFER TO THE PHOTOS AT RIGHT
The Pro Series control unit will check the pump
and its wire connections each week for possible
pump failure. The system will test the pump by
running it for 2-3 seconds to make sure it is
operating. The test will not trigger an alarm. If
the “Pump or DC fuse” alarm sounds:
1. Check the pump plug in the back of the unit
to make sure it is firmly connected. Check the
pump wires to make sure they are connected
securely to the pump plug. Check the rest of
the pump wires for any possible breaks.
