Progressive vs. Independent Switching
Depending on how the blue, orange, and yellow activation wires are connected, different levels of control are
possible. For example, activating the blue wire allows a flash pattern to be set. Activating the blue + orange
wires allows a different pattern to be set. Activating only the orange wire allows yet another to be set. Seven
combinations are possible.
Flash Pattern Selection (Very important - read carefully)
Energize (+12VDC) to the red wire and ground the black wire. Energize the activation wires desired to begin
flashing the lightheads. Observe the flash pattern (Default). Change the flash pattern as follows:
If touched for 0-2 seconds, the lighthead will steady burn dimly and the next pattern in line will begin when
the green wire is deactivated.
If touched for 2-4 seconds, the lightheads will shut off and the previous pattern will begin when the green
wire is deactivated.
If touched for more than 4 seconds, the lightheads will shut off and then turn on again. All patterns will
be reset to factory default.
The pattern that is selected will be stored even when power is removed.
There are 16 patterns for single color models and 47 for multi-color models. Alternating refers to a pair of
lights flashing together while simultaneous refers to all heads (of the same color) flashing together.
Diagnostic Test
There is also a diagnostic test that can be run using the Green pattern change wire. Apply +12V to the Green
wire (only). The lights will turn on one at a time and then turn off. Note that it can only be activated by apply-
ing power to the Green wire at start up. If the unit has been energized with any other wire, power needs to be
removed entirely from the light bar before applying power to the Green wire to enter into this mode again.
Dimming Operation
The DuoBeam can be operated in a low power "Dimming" mode. Dimming is controlled by connecting the
White wire to +12VDC. When Dimming is engaged, the lighheads will operate in reduced power mode.
