Wiring Instructions
CAUTION: All of our DC powered warning lights are polarity sensitive. These lights are polarity protected only if
the appropriate fuse is used. All wires connected to the positive terminal of the battery should be
fused at the battery for their rated load. Testing the light before this fuse is properly installed will void
the warranty on the light.
If your light has a cig plug, you can skip this section and continue to Pattern
Programming below.

1. Power up the light and set the flash pattern by pressing Pattern
Select switch (cig plug versions only), or briefly touching and
releasing the green wire to ground (hard-wired versions only).
2. These lights have 12 optional patterns.

Low Voltage Detection
These units have low input voltage detection. With this feature the beacon senses the input
voltage and flashes a fast pattern (approximately 16 cycles per second) to indicate to the user that
the battery voltage is low (less than 10V). Once the input voltage returns to normal (greater than
12V) the unit will return to the normal flashing.
3. The 9200HL are preset for Pattern #6 (Quadflash)
The 9200H8L are set for Pattern #4 (CCW Rotation 1)
Use the Pattern Select Switch or Green wire to cycle through the other patterns.
4. After the pattern has been set, tape, or place a wirenut over the end of the green wire to
prevent it from coming into contact with ground again (hard-wired versions).
5. SHORTCUTS: Review the chart above for a list of how long you need to touch the
green wire to ground or hold the Pattern Select button to jump directly
to a desired pattern.
