4.3 Test Button Uses
The test button can be used for three purposes:
1. With the GFPD-600V in normal mode, pressing the
test button conducts a system test that opens the
breaker, shows a red solid LED, and sounds the buzzer.
2. When a ground-fault error has occurred, pressing the
test button resets the GFPD-600V to the normal condi-
tion.
3. When a wiring error / open breaker alarm has
occurred, pressing the test button resets the GFPD-600V
to the normal condition.
4.2 LED Indications and Audible Warnings
A bi-color LED and buzzer indicate operating status, a
ground-fault event, module/wiring faults and low battery
voltage.

4.0 GFPD-600V OPERATION
4.1 Ground-Fault Detection
Ground-fault protection is used in electrical systems
to prevent current from following any unintended
paths. It is critical to detect any stray current, and to
interrupt (break) the circuit until safe operation can be
restored.
Any current imbalance between the (+) and (-) con-
ductors of a circuit indicates a ground-fault.
Morningstar’s GFPD-600V will detect this condition,
and break the circuit on both the (+) and (-) legs,
ensuring interruption.

When the minimum requirement of 9 Volts is reached,
a buzzer will sound. To resume normal operation,
re-charge or replace the voltage source powering the
GFPD-600V.
Push the test button to perform a system test. Close
the breaker to resume normal operation.
A critical fault indicates a hardware malfunction.
Please contact Morningstar for instructions.
