Optional LED ArrowStik® feature

The CODE 3 Central Controller has an optional programmable ArrowStik® feature integrated into the light bar. The ArrowStik® operates

independently of the other features of the Central Controller. Refer to the ArrowStik® Programming section of this manual for detailed

information on pattern selection and operation instruction.

OPTIONS & SPECIFICATIONS

Many options are available for the RX 2700™. This section is designed to describe the function of the various options.

Fusing Considerations

The RX 2700 Lightbar with Central Controller should be installed with an external fuse or circuit breaker in the RED lead of the two conductor 10

AWG power cable. If the lightbar is equipped with LIT3 mounting kit with external Halogen Takedown and Alley Lights, the recommend external fuse

size is 50A. If the lightbar is not equipped with LIT3 mounting kit with external Halogen Takedown and Alley Lights, the recommend external fuse size

is 30A. The Alley Lights and the Takedown Lights are protected by two 20A mini-ATO style fuses located on the Central Controller board. The internal

circuitry of the Central Controller is reverse polarity and over current protected by automatically resetting solid state fuses. Each LED output on the

Central Controller board is protected against over current and over heating with automatically resetting output devices.

Dim Operation

Lightbar LED modules are equipped with a low power "Dimming" mode. Dimming will be controlled by applying +12V by way of the appropriate

wire(color) in the wire harness/wire list. When DIM is engaged, the LED's will operate in a reduced power mode. Note: the corner mounted

lightheads are excepted from this function and will not dim. Please contact the factory if more information is needed concerning the dimming

mode.

Code 3® PriZm™ LED Reflector 360° Corner Modules

The RX 2700 Lightbar is equipped with new Code 3® PriZm LED Reflector 360° corner LED modules that provide a full 360 degrees of warning. The

lighthead has been designed to exceed all applicable requirements for 360° warning devices in Red, Blue, Amber and White.

Operating Specifications for 360° module:

Operating Voltage: 10-16 VDC, Reverse Polarity Protection

Current Draw :

Red/Amber - .5A avg @ 12.8 Volts

Blue/White - .8A avg @ 12.8 Volts

Available Colors - Red, Blue, Amber and White

360° Modules

To ensure compliance with SAE and CA Title 13 requirements, the 360° Modules (corners) are PriZm™ 12-LED Reflector lightheads.

LED TAKEDOWN & ALLEY MODULES

equivilent performance to standard 50W MR16 Halogen lamps. Lamp replacement is not required due to long life LEDs.

Operating Specifications for LED Takedown & Alley modules:

Operating Voltage: 10-16 VDC, Reverse Polarity Protection

Current Draw: 1.5A

Available Colors: White

This Product contains high intensity LED devices. To prevent eye damage, DO NOT stare into light beam at close range.

The Dim setting reduces the light output of emergency warning lights reducing the effectiveness of them especially

in brightly lit areas. Failure to use adequate light for the circumstances can cause motorists to fail to see the

emergency vehicle and lead to serious personal injury or death. Never use the DIM setting in a brightly lit area.

Use of the DIM setting may cause emergency lights to not comply with applicable emergency warning light stan-

dards. Use caution when using the DIM setting to assure that motorists can clearly see the emergency vehicle.
