OPTION SWITCHES 

An internal 8-position DIP switch on the circuit board may be changed to select various options. 
 

Accessing Option Switches

 - the DIP switch is located just behind the front panel of the ampli-

fier.  Use a 7/64” allen wrench to remove the 4 corner screws then remove front panel. 
 

 

Adjusting Option Switches

 - it is easiest to view the DIP 

switch with the unit turned upside down.  

With the unit 

upside down

, the DIP Switch is located on the internal 

PCB assembly board toward the left side of the unit.  
Switch 1 is toward the front of the unit.  Switch ‘ON’ posi-
tion is toward the left side of the unit. 

The default setting is shown here

.  Switch 1 is on. 

 
 

Note: Ver. B available options have changed. 

 

SW-1 (AUX_P) Auxiliary Input Polarity

 - The auxiliary input is normally activated with positive.  

Turn switch off for negative activation. 

 

 

 

SW-4 (T-T) Two-Tone

 - Turn this switch on to replace Phaser with Two-Tone. 

 

SW-5 (H_I) Horn Inhibit

 - Turn this switch on to disable Horn tone.  Horn replaced with Yelp. 

 

SW-4 and 5 Tone Disable

 - All siren tones may be disabled except Manual, Wail and Yelp by 

turning on both switches.  Mechanical will be replaced with Wail.  Phaser and Horn will be re-
placed with Yelp. 

 

SW-6 (SM) Short Manual

 - The Manual siren tone will normally fall and die out when released.  

Turn this switch on to have Manual stop immediately. 

 

SW-7 (M-W) Manual Wail

 -   

For SC-1022 only

   Turn this switch on for Manual Wail instead of 

Manual Mechanical when pressing the MAN pushbutton. 

 

SW-8 (FALL) Mechanical Fall

 - Turn this switch on for a quicker mechanical tone fall time. 

 
 

HORN RING CYCLER 2 (HRC2) 

- Turn on DIP SW-2 and SW-3 to enable this feature.  Also 

connect the auxiliary input to the horn ring or other switch.  While the siren is in standby, tap the 
horn ring to bring the unit out of standby into Mechanical tone.  Repeatedly tapping the horn ring 
will cycle through Mechanical, Wail, Yelp, and Phaser tones.  Tapping the horn ring twice quickly 
will stop the siren tones and return the unit to standby.  Pressing and holding the horn ring will 
produce Horn tone until released.  Then the siren will return to its previous siren tone or standby.
