4. The unit is supplied with a twelve-position, pluggable connector (white color) for connections to the speaker and other

selected optional connections such as hood,grill, radio, horn ring and parklight . Main light bar connections are made

at the blade connections in the back of the amplifier unit and are labelled with identification to coincide with the control

head.

5. Speaker – the siren is designed to operate with one 11-ohm impedance speaker (100W). Speakers are not included as

part of the siren. Any 11-ohm 100W speaker for use with emergency vehicle may be considered to use.

6. To install the light bar power wires, strip approximately 1/4″ of insulation from the end of the lights wires. Install the blade

wire connectors onto the wire ends and connect the appropriate wires to the terminals on the amplifier housing to co-

incide with the light bar wire function identification. Keep in mind that terminals 8, and 10-14 have a 15 amp maximum

current each. Power wires on pins 1,2 and 3 have a max. current of 20A each.

External 25A fuse is required on each of the 3 individual +12V power wires on pins 1,2 and 3 at the battery feed.

(Pin 4 is not used)

Pin 5 max current of 20A.

Pin 7 max current 20A.

Pin 8 internally fused for 15A

(Pin 9 not used)

Pins 10 - 14 are all internally fused for 15A each. (See figure 5, page 9 for fuse location)

7. If a fuse is installed, it should be sized for the actual load of the lighting used and located as close to the battery positive

as possible.

8. Ensure that there are no loose wire strands or other bare wire that may cause a short circuit. All wires must be protected

from any sharp edged that could eventually cut through the insulation. Also use an ohmmeter to verify that a short circuit

does not exist between the positive (+) leads and the vehicles chassis.

CONNECTION OF A 58 WATT SPEAKER TO THE SPKR TERMINAL WILL CAUSE THE SPEAKER

TO BURN OUT, AND WILL VOID THE SPEAKER WARRANTY!
