3894L6S same features as 3892L6 with an
addation of a rear panel connector to
accommodate
a single microphone system.

The following features are standard in the new
style 3890 series (tones and sequences may
differ by model number):

Instant-On- There is no " ON/OFF " switch. Selecting any
siren function, or keying the microphone will activate the
siren assuming the siren is connected directly to a non-
ignition switched source of +12V.

SirenLock

TM

(L4 and L6 Models Only)- An interlock circuit

between the siren and the light control circuits that permits
automatic siren tones only when the progressive switch is in Level 3 or in Level 2 or 3 (user selectable - works
in conjunction with the horn transfer relay). This feature is used in jurisdictions that require warning lights to be
on before the siren is activated.

Park Kill- This feature deactivates the siren tones when the vehicle is shifted into park. Once PKILL is
activated the siren will remain deactivated until an action occurs such as moving the selector switch to
STANDBY, returning lighting level switch to position one or keying the microphone. Any action will enable the
siren tones to function again with the exception of the auxillary lighting pushbuttons.On lighting models this also
drops-out the Level 3 lighting output for a power- down mode when in park.

Adjustable Backlighting- Backlighting is independent of siren power. Allows connecting to dimmer if desired.

Radio Power- Allows user to power the two-way radio from the siren when the ignition is "OFF".

Automatic Short Circuit Protection- The siren will sense a short circuit on the speaker terminals and
automatically go to standby until the fault is removed. Once the fault is removed the siren will return to normal
operation.

Lighting Level "3 " Drop-out- When vehicle is shifted to PARK and the PKILL feature is connected, Level 3
lighting will drop-out. This is indicated by the "red" LED exstinguishing. This is a power down mode and can be
defeated by setting the 4 -position rear dip switch to the PKILL "OFF" position on the lighting board.

Scroll Mode- Setting the slide switch on the rear of the siren to the SCROLL position will put siren in scroll
mode. This will allow "scrolling" through tones utilizing sharp taps on the horn ring, or a switch, via the Remote
siren input. In this mode holding the horn ring for prolonged durations will produce the Airhorn sound. See
OPERATION section for further details.

Hit-n-Go Mode - Setting the slide switch on the rear of the siren to the Hit-N-Go position will put the siren in the
Hit-n-Go mode.This mode will be most familiar to existing Mastercom users. A seven second override is
standard for all tones when activated by the Manual button or the Remote input.See OPERATION section for
details.

Automatic Siren Tones - Industry standard Wail, Yelp, and Hi-Lo tones.

AIR HORN Tone - Electronic AIR HORN sound.

Instant Public Address - Public Address override of all siren functions when the microphone Push-to-Talk key
is pressed.

Status LED - An indicator LED, visible on the front panel that informs the operator of the status of his siren at
all times.

Radio Rebroadcast - Broadcast Two-way radio reception over siren speakers. These inputs are transformer
coupled to prevent loading of the radio.
