Installation

Wiring Connections

Power (+12VDC) and ground connections are made through several terminal

blocks on the back of the siren.

Ground: Make your ground connection using an 8 AWG wire. Connect it

to the single terminal located on the left side of the rear of the

siren.

Power: Connect +12VDC to ALL THREE terminals on the right side of

the rear of the unit. Use 8 AWG wires for these connections.

The power supply for this unit must be capable of delivering

peak currents up to 150 amps

for adequate short circuit protec-

tion and reliable operation (50 amps for the audio functions and

up to 100 amps for the additional devices and/or lights you have

connected to the outputs). The preferred source is directly at the

vehicle battery.

The slide switch, push button switch, and video outputs are all made on a

12-terminal connector (P/N S30041-68). Be sure to use a wire size that is

appropriate for the load each will be carrying (see pages 35-39). Connect

devices that draw a maximum of 20 amps (+12VDC) per output. (Please

note: Only 3 amp max for ground-side switched devices). MAXIMUM

COMBINED OUTPUTS SHOULD NOT EXCEED 100 AMPS TOTAL!!!

These connectors are designed to handle a MAXIMUM

12 AWG wire. If your device has a larger wire (i.e. 8 or

10 AWG), solder a short (4”) 12 AWG lead onto the end

of the wire so that it can properly fit into the connector.
