ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
FLASH PATTERNS
YELLOW: Swap Alternating heads.
Connect to V or GROUND (GND).
When using more than one HIDE-A-LED
™
Deuce, this wire will swap
the order of the two LED heads so HEAD A will fire with HEAD B on
the other unit. Tie to GND if not used.

POWER-UP RESET:
After installing the system it is best to do a POWER-UP RESET the
first time to ensure that all heads are in sync.
Touch
BLUE
wire to +V while applying power for 1 second.
Release
BLUE
wire. All heads will reset to Pattern #2.
If you have installed a pattern select push-button, press and hold pat-
tern select while turning power switch ON. Release pattern select after
1 second.
To select a flash pattern, touch
BLUE
to +V or press pattern
select switch to increment the flash pattern. The heads will remember
the selected pattern even if power is removed.

TROUBLESHOOTING
HEAD NOT FLASHING:
Check the RED and BLACK wires for a reversed connection. (Reverse connection will
not damage the unit). Check RED and BLACK wires for either a bad splice or a corroded
ground connection.
HEADS NOT SYNCHRONIZING:
Check for a short circuit on the BLUE wire to V or GROUND.
Saltwater on the wire connections will short circuit the sync signal on the BLUE wire. Check
for non-functional heads in the system. If any one of the heads has a bad GROUND con-
nection it can cause the sync signal to become corrupted. If any one of the heads has it’s
RED and BLACK wires reverse connected it will corrupt the sync signal.
FLASH PATTERN CHANGING:
If the flash pattern changes on it’s own there may be an intermittent short between the
BLUE wire and +V. Check for water in the wiring connections. If any one of the heads in
the system has an intermittent GROUND connection it can also cause the flash pattern to
change.

STANDARD PATTERNS:
In order to maintain compatibility with the BULL LED
™
product, the HIDE-A-
LED
™
ships with only the standard patterns enabled (1 through 8).
CYCLE PATTERNS:
You may add patterns 9 through 16 by following this procedure:
1)
Touch
BLUE
wires to +V (
RED
wire) while applying power.
If you have installed a pattern select push-button, press and hold pattern select
while turning power switch ON.
2)
Hold
BLUE
wires on +V for 5 SECONDS (heads will not be flashing during
this time). After 5 SECONDS the heads will flash once or twice to indicate the
flash pattern list that has been selected:
ONE FLASH =
Standard Patterns only.
TWO FLASHES =
St Cycle Patterns.
3)
Remove the BLUE wires from +V (or release push-button).
You may switch the pattern set at any time as many times as you wish. All
heads will remember the pattern set that was selected even when power is
removed.
The HIDE-A-LED™ DEUCE will also synchronize with any BULL
LED™ or SD24 LED head . The wiring colors and functions are
identical.
