Connections
Wiring varies according to which model variant of
vLink you are installing. In all cases, +12VDC power
and system ground connections must be routed to the
location where the vLink controller will be mounted.
Using the supplied Power Cable assembly, connect
the red wire to a +12VDC Ignition Power source
that is fused at 1A. It’s important that the vLink be
powered from an Ignition switch power source so that
a Power On Reset occurs each time the vehicle is
started. Connect the black wire to vehicle ground at a
point that offers a low resistance path to the battery’s
negative terminal.
Consult lightbar user manual for applicable control
switch inputs and connect accordingly.
When all connections are made, turn on the vehicle’s
ignition and continue on page 18.

*Route the red 10AWG wire to a high current +12VDC power source. You may extend this wire by
splicing a longer section of like wire as necessary. It’s very important that this wire be protected by a
user supplied fuse installed near the +12VDC source. The fuse rating should be about 125% of the total
current for all outputs combined but must not exceed 30A.
