Operation
Slide Switch and Pushbuttons
This unit is designed for easy operation under the stress associated with high-speed pursuit.
Most siren functions and/or light controls are accessible with one simple motion without
repetitive activation of switches or automatic timed switching that can interfere with desired
operation.
Seven push button switches are provided to operate your external lights or devices. Each
push button (
PB1-PB5, PB13, PB14 ) will control the corresponding item(s) connected to
Terminals 4-10 of the 10-terminal connector (see page 40). Each of these seven outputs is
protected with a 20A fuse
(see page 51) .
By default, button PB13 is designed for use with a compatible arrowstick (traffic director) and
P14 is set to be used for a Gun Lock release. Both buttons can be used to control other
functions if you will not be connecting a traffic director or Gun Lock.
