Selecting Flash Patterns
Use the following instructions for lightbars without programmable light head pairs.
Note: If you have purchased a light bar with programmable light head pairs,
For lightbars with all single color light heads, please see supplement T16406 (800Series Software).
For lightbars with any multi-color light heads, please see supplement T54006 (950Series Software).
STEP 1
The Pattern Select wire is the BLK/RED wire in the sixteen conductor light bar control cable and is activated by momentarily touching the wire to
+power. Select the desired 3-Level mode to program by applying +power to the appropriate wire in the 16 conductor cable.
Make sure +12v is only applied to the function you are trying to program - otherwise program function will not operate.
There are seven possible 3-Level modes (see Table 1). The factory default is different for each of the 3 -Level modes. The standard progressive
switch will use the Level-1, Level-2 and Level-3 modes. The defaults for Level-1, Level-2 (L1 + L2) and Level-3 (L1 + L2 + L3) are identified in Table
1A. When using individual switches, make sure to select patterns for all switch combinations.
TAbLE 1: 3-LEVEL MODES OF OPERATION
MODE NUMbER wIRES ACTIVATED
L1 GRN/BLK (LEVEL-1)
L2 WHT/BLK
L1 + L2 GRN/BLK & WHT/BLK (LEVEL-2)
L3 RED/BLK
L1 + L3 GRN/BLK & RED/BLK
L2 + L3 WHT/BLK & RED/BLK
L1 + L2 + L3 GRN/BLK, WHT/BLK, & RED/BLK (LEVEL-3)
STEP 2
Observe the flashing pattern operation and determine which pattern is in operation for Level-1. Refer to Table 1A. This table shows the available
flash patterns. Note: the Factory Default is different and identified in the table for each of the flash mode Levels (L1, L2, L3). Once the flash pattern
has been determined, proceed to Step 3
.
STEP 3
Scroll to the next flash pattern by momentarily holding the Pattern Select wire (BLK/RED) to +power for ~1 sec. The light bar will stop flashing when
the wire is connected to +power. Release the wire and the next pattern as listed in Table 1A will begin to flash. The new pattern is automatically
stored each time. Repeat this procedure for each of the seven possible 3-level modes.
NOTE: To restore the Factory Default Emergency Warning Flash Patterns (see Table 1A), hold the pattern select wire to +power for ~four
(4) seconds.
