Installation:

IMPORTANT! It is the responsibility of the installation technician to make sure
that the installation and operation of this product will not interfere with or
compromise the operation or efficiency of any vehicle equipment!

Caution: Permanent mounting of this product will require drilling. It is
absolutely necessary to make sure that no other vehicle components could be
damaged by this process. Check both sides of the mounting surface before
starting. If damage is likely, select a different mounting location.

Hi/Low Intensity (Violet) - This feature allows the user to step the unit down to low
power operation for nighttime use. Apply positive voltage to the VIOLET wire to put
the lighthead into low power. Remove the voltage from the VIOLET wire to restore
normal high power operation.

The table below provides wiring information for the 600 Series lighthead. Refer to the
appropriate Flash Pattern list as determined by the lighthead style:

WARNING! The LED models designated “Steady” must be connected to an
electronic flasher. Allowing the LED to steady burn will damage the lighthead
and void the warranty.

This product draws significantly less current than a

standard incandescent automotive bulb. If your flasher does not operate
properly, it may be necessary to replace your existing flasher module with a
Whelen 3TERM flasher module. Contact your sales representative for specific
vehicle application.

Split Pattern Table:

Standard Pattern Table:

1.

Using the dimensions shown, mark off and drill the four 1/4” diameter mounting
holes and the 1” wire hole into the mounting surface. Check measurements
before drilling.

2.

Install the screw grommet flange into the mounting holes then install a rubber
grommet (customer supplied) into the wire hole.

3.

Using appropriately sized wires (minimum 18 AWG wire), extend the lighthead
wires to their appropriate connections. Fuse the positive connections at 3
Amps and test operation of lighthead before securing it to vehicle.

4.

Position the lighthead onto the mounting surface and secure to the vehicle

using the four #6 x 1-1/2” sheet metal screws.

Wiring:

WARNING!

All customer supplied wires that connect to the positive terminal

of the battery must be sized to supply at least 125% of the maximum operating
current and FUSED at the battery to carry that load. DO NOT USE CIRCUIT
BREAKERS WITH THIS PRODUCT!

The 600 Series lighthead offers the user various features depending on the model.
These features and their usage are as follows:

Scan-Lock™ (White/Violet):
Note that the lighthead must be on to use the ScanLock feature except where
noted.

To advance to the next flash pattern - Apply +12VDC to the WHT/VIO wire for less
than 1 second and release.

To cycle backwards through the flash patterns - Apply +12VDC to the WHT/VIO
wire for more than 1 second and release.

To reset to the factory default flash pattern - Turn off power to the lighthead. While
applying +12VDC to the WHT/VIO wire, turn power to the lighthead on. Continue to
apply voltage to the WHT/VIO wire for 5 seconds. The default pattern will now be
active.

NOTE: A Normally Open momentary switch is suggested to activate the Scan-
Lock™ wire.

SYNC (Grey) - To SYNC two lightheads, configure both lightheads to display the
same Phase 1 pattern. With the power off, connect the Grey wires from each
lighthead. When the lightheads are activated, their patterns will be synchronized. To
configure the two lightheads to alternate their patterns, advance the pattern of either
lighthead to the Phase 2 mode of the current pattern. Remember, Phase 1 patterns
ALWAYS alternate with Phase 2 patterns!
