IMPORTANT CABLE INFORMATION

The cable supplied with the Undercover Strobe Head is a
shielded type with a length of shield wire exposed on each end.
On the end of the cable at the Undercover Strobe Head, cut the
shield flush with the cable jacket. On the other end of the cable,
by the Power Supply, the shield wire is to be grounded to the
vehicle chassis to reduce radio or other communication sys-
tem interference. ALWAYS KEEP THIS WIRE AS SHORT AS
POSSIBLE WHEN GROUNDING. If this ground shield wire is
not to be installed, cut it flush with the cable jacket.

NOTE

SoundOff Signal Strobe Light Systems are
designed to interface with SoundOff Signal
Strobe Light Power Supplies. They are also
100% field compatible with Whelen and Tomar
Power Supplies, cables and light heads.
Detailed wiring, switching and installation
instructions are enclosed with the Strobe
Light Power Supply.

WARNING

The Strobe Power Supply is a high voltage
device, therefore DO NOT remove Strobe
Tubes or dismantle light heads while unit is
operating. ALWAYS WAIT TEN MINUTES
AFTER TUNING OFF THE POWER BEFORE
STARTING ANY TROUBLE SHOOTING.
