Control Cable:

 Extend the control cable to your switch panel and make the appropriate connections, using the information provided. The control cable

connects to your control head or switch box and is fused there. Typical fusing is 5 Amps. Ap12 volts to a control cable wire activates its function.

6. Route the cable(s) down through the B-pillar. The cable(s) must make a 90° turn

to enter the B-pillar. Although routing the cable in this manner may be difficult,
this has been determined to be the best procedure. It is up to  the installation
technicians discretion whether to route the cable(s) as recommended or use an
alternative route. Pull the full length of the cable(s) out of the hole at the base of
the  B-pillar  (Fig.  1)  and  route  towards  your  switch  panel.  Refer  to  the
instructions included with your switches for switch wiring information.

WARNING!The  strobe  light  power  supply  is  a  high  voltage  device.  Do  not
touch  or  remove  the  strobe  tube  assembly  while  in  operation.  Wait  10
minutes after disconnecting the unit from its power source before starting
work or troubleshooting on power supply or system.

WARNING! All customer supplied wires that connect to the positive terminal
of  the  battery  must  be  sized  to  supply  at  least  125%  of  the  maximum
operating current and FUSED at the battery to carry that load. DO NOT USE
CIRCUIT BREAKERS WITH THIS PRODUCT! 

ScanLock

™ / WHT/BLU or WHT VIO

The  ScanLock™  wire  changes  the  flash  patterns  displayed  by  the
lightheads. To use ScanLock™ you must activate the lightheads you wish to
change.  WHITE-BLUE  is  the  ScanLock™  wire  that  changes  the  Strobe  Lights  and  WHITE-VIOLET  is  the  ScanLock™  wire  that  changes  the
LEDs.

To cycle forward through all patterns:

 Activate the lightheads you want to change, then apply +12 volts to the appropriate ScanLock™ wire for less

than 1 second and release. This will change the pattern. Repeat to go to next pattern.

To choose a pattern:

 While cycling through the patterns, when you find the pattern you want let it run for more than 5 seconds and it will lock in and

become the default pattern.

To reset to the factory default pattern:

 Turn off the option you want to reset, apply +12 volts to the ScanLock™ wire then turn the option back on.

Low Power / VIOLET:

When you apply +12VDC, to the VIOLET wire it will initiate Low Power operation of all strobes. Turn the lightbar off and then back on to restart in high
power.
