Activating All Strobe Heads Together

(MOST APPLICATIONS)

To turn on all eight heads
connected to both power
supplies together, connect the
Red and Red w/Black Stripe
wires together through your
On/Off switch. When the
switch is thrown, all of your
strobes will flash. (#1 & #4 will
alternate with #2 & #3)

Proceed to the Pattern
Selection section on page 10
to program the flash pattern of
your strobe packs.




Activating Front and Rear Strobes Separately


To turn on your front strobe
separately from your rear
strobes, connect the Red and
Red w/Black Stripe wires
through two separate
switches. When one switch is
thrown, only the front strobes
will flash. (#1 & #4 will
alternate with #2 & #3). When
the other switch is thrown the
rear strobes will flash.


Proceed to the Pattern Selection
section on page 10 to program
the flash pattern of your strobe
pack.
