All beacons configured to display the Phase 1 mode of a pattern will flash
simultaneously. Any beacons configured to display the Phase 2 mode of
a pattern, will alternate with any Phase 1 beacons of the same pattern.
To sync two beacons, configure both beacons to display the same Phase
1 pattern. With the power off, connect the GREY wires from each beacon
together. When the beacons are activated, their patterns will be
synchronized. To configure the two beacons to alternate their patterns,
advance the pattern of either beacon to the Phase 2 mode of the current
pattern.
The following example will demonstrate how to use SYNC with more than
2 beacons. You have 4 beacons; 2 on the rear (driver), 2 on the rear
(passenger). With all wiring complete, turn on the 4 beacons. As shipped
from the factory, all the beacons will simultaneously display the same
pattern (Rotator 75 CW Phase 1).
For the passenger side to alternate with the driver side, change the
patterns for either side to Phase 2 of the same pattern. Do not SYNC
more than 8 beacons.
IMPORTANT: It is the responsibility of the installation technician to
make sure that the installation and operation of this product will not
interfere with or compromise the operation or efficiency of any
vehicle equipment! Before returning the vehicle to active service,
visually confirm the proper operation of this product, as well as all
vehicle components/equipment.

NOTE: A 12 volt model is shown here. In 24 volt models
sequences will start with 4 LEDs lit instead of 3 as shown
making the patterns appear to flow less smoothly.
