Push the lid snaps toward the housing until they are flat against the 

housing and the lock has engaged. Close opposing lid snaps at the 
same time.

6.  

Check the o-ring seal. The o-ring should form a uniform, solid line 

around the back of the housing. There will be a small, even gap 
around the housing between the housing back and the housing 
front. 

Attaching a Fiber Optic Strobe

1.  

Check the end of the fiber optic cord to ensure that it is clean and 

smooth.

2.  

Ensure that the Fiber Optic Cord O-ring is in place. This o-ring 

does not provide waterproofing, however it does keep the fiber optic 
cord in place.

3.  

Attach one end of the fiber optic cord into one of the fiber optic 

ports on the front of the housing. The connector is a press-fit into 
the fiber optic port.

Set the strobe to the appropriate setting based on manufacturer 

recommendations.
