Internal SignalMaster (Factory Default)
NOTE
: If the SignalMaster is not activated by a control head or an external controller,
the SignalMaster LED heads flash with the selected priority mode (Mode 1, 2, or 3) of
operation.
The Serial Interface Module factory-set for the Internal SignalMaster option. Internal
operation uses the light bar’s built-in SignalMaster controller to generate directional
warning patterns. With internal operation, an external SignalMaster controller is
not needed. A standard low-current switch box can activate the light bar’s internal
SignalMaster controller.
External SignalMaster
External operation uses the Serial Interface Module to drive each SignalMaster
directional warning head independently through an external Federal Signal
SignalMaster controller or SS2000SM series siren Either device provides an
independent ground signal to turn on each head (Figure 4).
