AUXILIARY SWITCH "E" - Supplies power to the load connected to terminal SW E.

AUXILIARY SWITCH "F" - Supplies power to the load connected to terminal SW F.

NOTE: The six auxiliary switches described above have their own individual LED which is dimly illuminated for
back lighting and bright to indicate that the circuit is On.  These switches will also activate the LightAlert feature
if it is enabled.

LightAlert - The LightAlert option will produce an audible "beep" on a periodic basis if the Progressive Warning
Light Switch or any of the Auxiliary Switches are on.  A switch accessible through the back of the siren control
head allows this feature to be disabled if desired.

SirenLock - The SirenLock option, when not defeated by means of the switches accessible on the rear panel of
the siren amplifier, allows siren tones to be produced only when the Warning Light Switch is in the Lighting
Level 2 (Green and Yellow LED's) or Lighting Level 3 (Green, Yellow, and Red LED's) position.  Air Horn, Radio
Rebroadcast, and Public Address are unaffected by this option.

Special Function Switches 

(Models 3997, 3997R, 3999 & 3999R only)

RLS Siren Models 3997, 3997R, 3999 & 3999R have five (5) "Special
Function" switches which provide a means of control, on properly
equipped installations, for an ArrowStik  for Models 3997 & 3997R  and
an ArrowStik, NIGHTPROBE

TM

 spotlight, and the RLS Auxiliary Relay

Module for Models 3999 & 3999R.  On Models 3997 and 3997R these
switches control the function of the ArrowStik.  On Models 3999 and
3999R, the function of these five switches is determined by the Special
Function Select Button.  Each time the Select switch is Depressed the
Special Function Mode will scroll to the next mode as indicated by the
illuminated legend of the Special Function Indicator (see Figure 6).  The
function of the switches in each mode is described below.

ArrowStik - Using the control unit's SELECT switch, select the
ArrowStik mode.  When in ArrowStik mode the five "Special Function" switches provide push-on / push-off
control of an ArrowStik.  These switches operate intuitively for the Left, Right, Center-Out and Rear Flash
ArrowStik functions.  Depressing the Up Arrow will cause the ArrowStik to toggle between Bright and Dim mode.
Please note that when the ArrowStik is in Dim mode, depressing the active function switch again will toggle the
ArrowStik back to Bright mode.  Depressing the active function switch a second time will toggle the ArrowStik
function OFF.

NIGHTPROBE

TM

  - The RLS Spotlight Control Module (option B394) is required to operate this function.  Using

the control unit’s SELECT switch, select the SPOT mode.  In this mode,  depressing and holding the LEFT,
RIGHT, UP or DOWN keys will cause the NIGHTPROBE

TM

 to rotate in the appropriate direction.  The spotlight

will accelerate from it’s slowest speed to full speed over a two second period and stop instantly when the switch
is released.  This allows for very precise positioning of the light.  Depressing and releasing the center switch
while in the SPOT mode will cause the lamp to toggle ON and OFF.  Please refer to the RLS NIGHTPROBE

AUX1 / AUX2 - The RLS Auxiliary Relay Module is (option B396) is required to operate this function.  Using the
control unit’s SELECT switch, select the AUX1 mode.  In this mode,  depressing the LEFT, UP, RIGHT or
DOWN keys will activate outputs 1,2,3 or 4 respectively.  Similiarly, when AUX2 mode is selected, depressing
the LEFT, UP, RIGHT or DOWN keys will activate outputs 5,6,7 or 8 respectively.  These are ON / OFF
latching functions.  Each output will toggle ON when it’s switch is depressed the first time and OFF when it’s
