How do I perform a Transfer Test on an ASCO 185 Series Transfer Switch?

Transfer Test Button - Use this button to test the system. This operation starts the generator and transfers the load. Be sure that conditions are safe to do this operation.

Bypass Time Delay Button - Use this button to cancel the active time delay or exercise period (stops the generator after cooldown).

To perform a test, press and hold the Transfer Test button for at least 15 seconds or until the generator cranks.

Wait for approximately 10 seconds(default factory setting) for the transfer to generator time delay.

Press the Bypass Time Delay button for immediate load transfer to the generator.
