Electrical Connections.
WARNING
Failure to observe this WARNING may result
in fire, burns or blindness.
If shorted to vehicle frame, high current conductors
can cause hazardous sparks resulting in electrical
fires or molten metal.
DO NOT connect this system to vehicle battery until
ALL other electrical connections are made and
mounting of all components is complete.
Verify that no short circuits exist, before connecting
to the Positive (+) battery terminal.
The control unit is supplied with a six-position
connector and a eleven-position terminal block to perform
the electrical installation. User-supplied, 14-gauge red and
black wires are required for the (+) BAT and (-) GND
connections on the six-position connector. User-supplied,
18-gauge red and green wires are required for the (+) BAT/
IGN and CASE GROUND connections on the six-position
connector. Using figure 2 as a guide, complete this portion
of the installation as follows:
1.
Power Connections.
CAUTION
To avoid damage and ensure proper operation, the
red and black wires MUST be installed in the six-
position connector as shown in figure 3.
WARNING
Do not connect more than one, 6 or 8 head,
halogen SignalMaster assembly to a
SignalMaster controller or the SignalMaster
outputs of a SmartSiren. Electrical fire or
damage to the controller or siren will result.
Figure 1.
CAUTION
Install the control unit in an adequately ventilated
area. Never install near heater ducts.
NOTE
When selecting a mounting location for the control
unit, it is necessary to keep in mind that the Signal
Master cable is 15-feet long. Plan wiring and cable
routing before installation.
1.
Select a mounting location for the control unit
that allows the vehicle and controls to be operated safely at
all times.
2.
Use the mounting bracket as a template and
scribe two drill position marks at the selected mounting
location.
CAUTION
Before drilling holes in ANY part of a vehicle, be
sure that both sides of the mounting surface are
clear of parts that could be damaged; such as brake
lines, fuel lines, electrical wiring or other vital parts.
3.
Drill two holes at the previously scribed
position marks.
4.
Secure the mounting bracket to the mounting
surface with two user-supplied, thread-forming, 1/4-20
screws.
