Mounting your Lightbar:
Permanent mounting of this product will require drilling. It is absolutely necessary
to make sure that no other vehicle components could be damaged by this process.
Check both sides of the mounting surface before starting. If damage is likely, select
a different mounting location.
This lightbar mounts with 3 bolts, affixed to mounting plates that slide into the track on the
bottom of the lightbar base. Figures 1 and 1a show how the slide bolt assembly slides into
your lightbars base and mounts onto the vehicle. Use an appropriately sized drill bit sized
for a 1/2 - 13 X 2” bolt, to drill the mounting holes. When you secure the slide bolts to the
bottom of the lightbar base, be sure the outside bolts are spaced far enough apart and
near enough to the ends of the vehicle roof.
Operation:
Operation of the function wires in the cables exiting the lightbar is outlined below.
Applying +12 volts DC to these wires will activate their function. Refer to the parts
illustration for fusing information. Any unused wire should be capped off.
LED CABLE: GREEN: Activates the FRONT LED’s.
3 conductor WHITE: Activates the REAR LED’s.
TAKEDOWN/ALLEY:
6 conductor:
WHITE: Activates (Steady) TAKEDOWNS and WORKLIGHTS
GREEN: Activates the PASSENGER SIDE ALLEY LIGHTS
RED: Activates the DRIVER SIDE ALLEY LIGHTS
BLUE: Activates the TAKEDOWNS in FLASH MODE
BRAKE-TAIL: WHITE: Activates the TAIL LIGHTS
4 conductor GREEN: Activates the PASSENGER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT
RED: Activates the DRIVER SIDE BRAKE LIGHT
SCANLOCK: RED: Scan-Lock™ Flash pattern selection for the FRONT LED’s
3 conductor GREEN: Scan-Lock™ Flash pattern selection for the REAR LED’s
Scan-Lock™ / Flash Pattern Selection:
The RED wire is the Scan-Lock™ wire for FRONT LED’s. The GREEN wire is the Scan-Lock™ wire for REAR LED’s. LED’s must be on
for Scan-Lock™ to work.
TO CHANGE PATTERNS: To cycle forward to the next pattern: Apply +VBAT to the “Scan-Lock™ wire for less than 1 second and
release. To cycle back to the previous pattern: Apply +VBAT to the Scan-Lock™ wire for more than 1 second and release.
TO CHANGE THE DEFAULT PATTERN: When the desired pattern is active, allow it to run for
more than 5 seconds. The lighthead will now display this pattern when activated.
TO RESTORE THE FACTORY DEFAULT PATTERN: With power to the lightheads off, apply
+VBAT to the Scan-Lock™ wire. While still applying +VBAT to the “Scan-Lock™ wire, turn
power to the lightheads back on. The factory default pattern should now be displayed.
A Normally Open momentary switch can be used to control Scan-Lock™
