IMPORTANT!!!
Be sure to not only read this entire manual but also
SAVE
this and all Serial Communication manuals. They
contain important data that may need to be referenced in the future. Consider storing these manuals in a 3-ring binder
for easy referencing.
Please note that the installation procedure outlined in this manual is drawn from information supplied by factory
authorized installation technicians. Although this network can be installed on any vehicle, all manuals demonstrate the
installation procedure using a 1995 Ford Crown Victoria as example. The basic procedures, however, do apply to most
other vehicles. This manual is written with the assumption that the MPC01 Multi-Purpose Controller and BLDISTI
Power Distribution Center have already been installed and wired in your vehicle.
Note: The outer surfaces of this product may be cleaned with mild soap and water. Use of any
other chemicals may void product warranty. DO NOT USE A PRESSURE WASHER ON THIS

Mounting the Edge 10000...
1.
Position the lightbar in the desired location. One often selected location is directly above the B-pillars. This
area is the strongest part of the roof. Be sure that the lightbar is facing the proper direction. If you are not
sure, remember that unless otherwise specially ordered, the cables from the lightbar will exit the extrusion
via
a hole drilled in the drivers side of the extrusion.
2.
WIth the location determined, adjust the
two mounting feet outboard so that they
are as close to the edge of the roof as
possible. Make sure that both mounting
feet are in full contact with the roof and
not hanging off the edge. Also, be sure
that there is no less than 1/2” clearance
between the roof and the lightbar at
their closest point (see Fig.1).To adjust
the mounting feet, loosen the two, 3/8”
bolts that secure the feet to the
extrusion. When the foot has been
placed in it’s desired location, re-tighten
these bolts to hold the foot in place.
Repeat this procedure for the opposite
foot.
3.
Open both of the drivers side doors. In
the area directly below the mounting
foot, carefully pull the drivers side
weatherstrip away from the vehicle (Fig.
2). Remove enough weatherstriping so
that the area where the mounting strap will be secured to the vehicle is exposed. Repeat this procedure for
the passenger side.
