IMPORTANT! The lightbar should be a minimum of 16" from any radio antennas!
Mounting your Lightbar:
This lightbar mounts with 4 bolts affixed to mounting plates that slide into the track on the bottom of the
lighbar base. Figures 1 and 1a show how the slide bolt assembly slides into your lightbars base and mounts
onto the vehicle. Use an appropriately sized drill bit sized for a 1/2 - #13 X 2” bolt, to drill the mounting
holes. When securing the slide bolts to the bottom of the lightbar base, be sure the outside bolts are spaced
far enough apart and near enough to the ends of the vehicle roof.
Lightbar Cables:
This lightbar uses a 3-conductor cable for LEDs, a 6 conductor cable for HALOGEN and a 4-conductor
cable for BRAKE/TAIL lights. Extend the 3- and 6-conductor cables towards your switch panel. The
instructions included with your switches will provide switch wiring information. The 4-conductor cable
connects to your brake light. There are also 2 wires for Scan-Lock™ (flash pattern selection).
Refer to the parts illustration on the next page for wire designations and fusing .
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!
Scan-Lock™
In the Scan-Lock™ cable the RED wire controls the front LEDs and the GREEN wire controls the rear
LEDs. The LEDs must be on for flash pattern selection.
TO CHANGE PATTERNS: Apply +12 volts to the Scan-Lock™ wire for less than 1 second and release to
cycle forward to the next available pattern. Apply +12 volts to the the Scan-Lock™ wire for more than 1
second and release to cycle back to the previous pattern.
TO CHANGE THE DEFAULT PATTERN: When the
desired pattern is displayed, allow it to run for more than 5
seconds. The lighthead will now display this pattern when
initially activated.
TO RESTORE THE FACTORY DEFAULT PATTERN:
Apply +12 volts to the Scan-Lock™ wire. With Scan-
Lock™ activated, turn power to the lighthead on. The
factory default pattern will now be displayed.
A normally open momentary switch can be used to control Scan-Lock operation.
CAUTION! DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT
THESE LEDS WHILE THEY ARE ON.
MOMENTARY BLINDNESS AND/OR EYE
DAMAGE COULD RESULT!
