ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

Featured Highlights:

Mode Select: The MAGNUM™ Lightbar is equipped with 2 selectable pattern configuration modes via the Mode Select Input. Default is Mode 1 where the
input is floating, Mode 2 is in use when the input is activated. This feature allows 2 complete sets of patterns to be programmed into the Lightbar's non-
volatile memory. Once programming configuration is complete, the Mode can be changed "on-the-fly" by an activation switch.

Cruise Mode: Allows the user to program any Light Head Group(s) to "Glow" when this feature is activated.

Directional Arrow Built-in: If the lightbar was purchased with a directional arrow, the directional controller is built-in w/4 arrow patterns for each direction
and 9 warning patterns for warning functions.

Power Cable:

1. Route lightbar power cables as close to vehicles power source (battery) as possible.
2. Install a 40Amp Fuse (customer supplied) to the end of the RED wire of the Lightbar Power Cable.

a. Remove the fuse before connecting any wires to the battery.

b. DO NOT USE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSIBLE LINK.

3. Connect the other end of the Fuse to the Positive (+) terminal of the battery.

a. DO NOT use any more than 2ft of wire between the battery terminal and the fuse. Ensure the wire is protected and secured from being cut

into: this non-fused wire

4. Connect the BLACK wire to the factory chassis ground right next to the battery.

Control (Data) Cable:

1. Route Lightbar Control Cable to the location where all controlling equipment will be, i.e. switch box, center console area.
2. Locate the Breakout Box in the same area to connect wires from the switching equipment to the Breakout Box wire harness.
NOTE: Power is supplied to Breakout Box through data cable, no additional power connections necessary.

Initial Power up Test:

1. Insert 40 Amp Fuse (not included) into Fuse Holder (as stated above).
2. Plug data jack into Data 1 connector of the Breakout Box.
3. Observe the GREEN Data Link indicator LED on the Breakout Box; the LED will turn steady ON about 15 seconds after main power is connected.
4. When GREEN LED is steady ON (see below), the lightbar is ready to be configured.

Low Power (Standby) Mode

If there is no output to the breakout box for 15 seconds, the lightbar will go into a "standby" mode. The standby mode is a low power mode that is used to
extend the life of your battery. The green light will turn off when the lightbar enters standby mode. The red light will flash every five seconds showing that it
has power. The lightbar will awaken from the standby mode if any input is activated on the breakout box.

In standby mode, each switch in the down position will contribute to another 0.03A of standby current.
