Introduction
The LED XTM 2100 Light Bar is a light bar that is approximately 2" high, yet delivers unobstructed 360° warning and more signal
power and versatility than any other light bar of its size.
The low profile and aerodynamic lines reduce air drag, which results in fuel savings and stability at high speeds. This light bar has a
strong extruded internal frame, shock-resistant polycarbonate lenses, and warning signals that exceed SAE standards.
The LED X 2100 is designed on a modular basis, which means that the light bar can be customized to meet any requirement. The
LED X 2100 has room for numerous halogen, incandescent and LED options. While we do not recommend a light installed in every
location, the design of the LED X 2100 offers the ultimate flexibility in the location of warning and auxiliary lights.
The use of this or any warning device does not ensure that all drivers can or will observe or react to an
emergency warning signal. Never take the right-of-way for granted. It is your responsibility to be sure you can
proceed safely before entering an intersection, driving against traffic, responding at a high rate of speed, or
walking on or around traffic lanes.
The effectiveness of this warning device is highly dependent upon correct mounting and wiring. Read and
follow the manufacturer’s instructions before installing or using this device. The vehicle operator should insure
daily that all features of the device operate correctly. In use, the vehicle operator should insure the projection
of the warning signal is not blocked by vehicle components (i.e.: open trunks or compartment doors), people,
vehicles, or other obstructions.
This equipment is intended for use by authorized personnel only. It is the user’s responsibility to understand
and obey all laws regarding emergency warning devices. The user should check all applicable city, state and
federal laws and regulations.
Code 3, Inc., assumes no liability for any loss resulting from the use of this warning device.
Proper installation is vital to the performance of this warning device and the safe operation of the emergency
vehicle. It is important to recognize that the operator of the emergency vehicle is under psychological and
physiological stress caused by the emergency situation. The warning device should be installed in such a
manner as to: A) Not reduce the output performance of the system, B) Place the controls within convenient
reach of the operator so that he can operate the system without losing eye contact with the roadway.
Emergency warning devices often require high electrical voltages and/or currents. Properly protect and use
caution around live electrical connections. Grounding or shorting of electrical connections can cause high
current arcing, which can cause personal injury and/or severe vehicle damage, including fire.
PROPER INSTALLATION COMBINED WITH OPERATOR TRAINING IN THE PROPER USE OF EMER-
GENCY WARNING DEVICES IS ESSENTIAL TO INSURE THE SAFETY OF EMERGENCY PERSONNEL
AND THE PUBLIC.

Unpacking & Pre-installation
Carefully remove the light bar and place it on a flat surface, taking care not to scratch the lenses or damage the cable coming out of
the bottom. Examine the unit for transit damage, broken lamps, etc. Report any damage to the carrier and keep the shipping carton.
Standard light bars are built to operate on 12 volt D.C. negative ground (earth) vehicles. If you have an electrical system other than
12 volt D.C. negative ground (earth), and have not ordered a specially wired light bar, contact the factory for instructions.
Test the unit before installation. To test, touch the black wire to the ground (earth) and the other wires to +12 volts D.C., in
accordance with the instructions attached to the cable (an automotive battery is preferable for this test). A battery charger may be
used, but please note that some electronic options (flashers, stingrays, etc.) may not operate normally when powered by a battery
charger. If problems occur at this point, contact the factory.
Installation & Mounting
MOUNTING HARDWARE - All mounting hardware is packed in a small box inside the main carton. Four standard kits are available:
(1) Hook-On Type, (1) Tow and Recovery and (2) Permanent Types. These are discussed in detail later. Note: Hook-on mounting
for "gutterless" type vehicles will require a special hook for mounting. Several special application hooks are available. Contact the
factory for details.
Utilizing non-factory supplied screws and/or mounting brackets and/or the improper number
of screws may result in loss of warranty coverage on the equipment.

Begin the installation by attaching the rubber feet to the mounting brackets using the black 1/4" carriage bolts and 1/4" nuts
provided. See Figure 1. (Do not install shims at this time). Place the light bar upside down on a table or other work surface,
being careful not to scratch the lenses. Slide the 5/16" carriage bolts into the frame. Secure the mounting brackets finger tight
so they support the weight of the light bar, but still are positionable. Locate the vehicle on a level surface. Place the light
bar on the roof of the vehicle. Place a soft pad in the center of the roof to protect the paint. The mounting brackets must be
placed so that the rubber feet are resting on the curved section of the roof, see Figure 2. This is the strongest part of the roof.
Once the light bar is centered, tighten the mounting bracket to the light bar. Using a tape measure and a level, center
the light bar from side to side and locate a position on the roof where the light bar is level.

The shims provided may be used here to help level the light bar, see Figure 1. Also, the tabs on the mounting brackets may be
bent at any angle to match the curvature of the roof. Select the appropriate length cap screw and insert through the holes in
the gutter hook and mounting bracket, and into a lockwasher and acorn nut as shown in Figure 1. If a special hook for a
"gutterless" vehicle is used, refer to the instructions for that hook at this time. The stainless steel cap screws supplied are sized
for the most common installations, but longer and shorter bolts are available at any hardware store. Tighten the cap screws on
both sides evenly keeping the light bar centered and level.
NOTE: Tighten only until the bar is secure (bar does not move when bumped sharply with the heel of the palm). It is NOT
necessary to dimple the roof to obtain a stable attachment. If the light bar "bows" more than 3/16" (determined by placing a
straightedge along the front, bottom part of the frame and measuring downward at the center of the frame), loosen the 5/16"
trim nut sightly.
Re-Installation: When moving a light bar from one vehicle to another, we suggest that new rubber feet be used. These are
standard hardware items, and can usually be found at any hardware store, or can be ordered from the factory. The special
hooks are stainless steel and should be saved and reused. Mounting kit parts are available to permit remounting on vehicles of
different design or make. Consult your local dealer or Code 3 , Inc. for detailed information.
Permanent Mounting
Typical Mounting: Refer to Figure 3. Place the light bar upside down on a table or other work surface, being careful not to
scratch the lenses. Slide the 5/16" carriage bolts into the frame. Secure the mounting brackets finger tight so they
support the weight of the light bar. Place the unit on the roof of the vehicle. Place a soft pad in the center of the roof to
protect the paint. The mounting brackets must be placed so that they are resting on the curved section of the roof, see
Figure 4. This is the strongest part of the roof. Once the light bar is centered, tighten mounting brackets to light bar.
Using a tape measure and a level, center the light bar from side to side and locate a position of the roof where the light
bar is level. The shims provided may be used here to help level the light bar. Also, the tabs on the mounting bracket may
be bent at any angle to match the curvature of the roof (see Figure 4).

FIGURE 4
Once the light bar is level and centered, mark the holes through the mounting tabs and remove the
light bar from the vehicle. Make sure that the drill will not damage anything when penetrating the roof.
Drill the mounting holes and remove any burrs. Attachment can be made using 1/4" cap screws,
toggle bolts, or other fasteners as may be convenient. Use sealant as necessary to prevent water
leakage into the vehicle.
Wiring Instructions
Larger wires and tight connections will provide longer service life for components. For high current wires it
is highly recommended that terminal blocks or soldered connections be used with shrink tubing to protect
the connections. Do not use insulation displacement connectors (e.g. 3M®Scotchlock type connectors).
Route wiring using grommets and sealant when passing through compartment walls. Minimize the number
of splices to reduce voltage drop. High ambient temperatures (e.g. underhood) will significantly reduce the
current carrying capacity of wires, fuses, and circuit breakers. Use "SXL" type wire in engine compartment.
All wiring should conform to the minimum wire size and other recommendations of the manufacturer and be
protected from moving parts and hot surfaces. Looms, grommets, cable ties, and similar installation
hardware should be used to anchor and protect all wiring. Fuses or circuit breakers should be located as
close to the power takeoff points as possible and properly sized to protect the wiring and devices. Particular
attention should be paid to the location and method of making electrical connections and splices to protect
these points from corrosion and loss of conductivity. Ground terminations should only be made to
substantial chassis components, preferably directly to the vehicle battery. The user should install a fuse
sized to approximately 125% of the maximum Amp capacity in the supply line to protect against short
circuits. For example, a 30 Amp fuse should carry a maximum of 24 Amps. DO NOT USE 1/4" DIAMETER
GLASS FUSES AS THEY ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR CONTINUOUS DUTY IN SIZES ABOVE 15 AMPS.
Circuit breakers are very sensitive to high temperatures and will "false trip" when mounted in hot environ-
ments or operated close to their capacity.
WARNING!

Before attempting to connect wiring refer to wire tag attached to the lightbar's main cable. Each wire in the cable controls a
separate lightbar function as described in the wire tag.
The only significant difference between the LED X™ 2100 with optional ArrowStik®and a conventional LED X 2100, is the
additional, thinner cable exiting the bottom of the lightbar. The larger cable is the lightbar power cable. Route the wiring cable
into the engine or passenger compartment, taking care to use grommets and to apply sealant around openings to keep water
out. It is advisable to leave an extra loop of cable when installing the light bar to allow for future changes or reinstallations.
Connect the black lead to a solid frame ground (earth), preferably, the (-) or ground (earth) side of the battery and bring the
other wires to the control head or switches. Connect the wires as directed by the wiring instructions on the cable.

This Product contains high intensity LED devices. To prevent eye damage, DO NOT stare
into light beam at close range.
WARNING! !
L.E.D. Fusing Considerations
Although the average current draw per module is very low, due to the type of circuit used to power each module the instantaneous
peak current to a module can be significantly higher during low voltage conditions. To avoid prematurely blowing ATO style fuses
or tripping breakers it is recommended the following rule-of-thumb be used to size fuses or breakers. This is especially important in
lightbars with many LED modules running off a single fused source,
Minimum fuse size calculation:
1.5 x (number of modules being fused)
Example:
LED X 2100 Lightbar with 2 corner modules (2 per module) and 14 directional modules.
Minimum fuse requirement for single fuse - 1.5 (2+2+14) = 27A minimum
OPTIONS & SPECIFICATIONS
Many options are available for the LED X 2100. This section is designed to describe the function of the various LED X 2100
options.
LED WARNING MODULES
Dim Operation
Lightbar LED modules are equipped with a low power "Dimming" mode. Dimming will be controlled by applying +12V by
way of the appropriate wire(color) in the wire harness/wire list. When DIM is engaged the LED's will operate in a
reduced power mode.
The Dim setting reduces the light output of emergency warning lights reducing the effectiveness of
them especially in brightly lit areas. Failure to use adequate light for the circumstances can cause
motorists to fail to see the emergency vehicle and lead to serious personal injury or death. Never
use the DIM setting in a brightly lit area. Use of the DIM setting may cause emergency lights to not
comply with applicable emergency warning light standards. Use caution when using the DIM setting
to assure that motorists can clearly see the emergency vehicle.
!
WARNING!
For safety purposes, the corner modules in lightbars are not connected to the dimming circuit.
This ensures that when corner modules are turned on, full 360 degree coverage and
compliance with SAE warning light standards is provided.
The DIM control wires(two white wires) located on each of the modules are connected from one module to
the next. To disable the dimming function on a particular module, disconnect the white wires. Then
reconnect the white wire to the white wire on another module that has dimming enabled.
- Refer to the control head manual packaged with the lightbar for control
head installation and operation instruction.
Arrowstik® / Narrowstik®
OPTIONAL HALOGEN ARROWSTIK® (7-wire) / L.E.D. NARROWSTIK® (11-wire) WIRING AND CONTROL HEAD INSTALLATION -
After installation of the lightbar, route the smaller of the two power cables through the vehicle to the location chosen for the control
head. Cut the cable to length and strip back the outer insulation to expose the seven or eleven colored wires. Strip back 1/8” - 1/4” of
colored insulation from each of the wires in the cable. Connect these wires to the seven position / eleven position terminal plug
enclosed in the user parts bag, according to the diagram on the bottom of the control head.

Code 3® OPTIX™ 360 DEGREE CORNER MODULES
The LED X™ 2100 Lightbar is equipped with new Code 3® OPTIX™ 360 degree corner LED modules that provide a full 360
degree of warning. The optic has been designed to exceed all applicable requirements for 360 degree warning devices in Red,
Blue, Amber and White. The new OPTIX corner module is a ( 1" X 6" ) module and uses larger, higher efficiency, TIR optics to
produce an enhanced corner signal over the exisitng ( 1" X 4" ) Code 3 LED X™ corner module. While the OPTIX will become
the standard corner module for most configurations, the LED X corner module will still be available and may be required for
some configurations. Installation and Operation for both modules will be the same. Consult the factory for further information.
Operating Specifications for 360 degree module:
Operating Voltage: 10-16 VDC, Reverse Polarity Protection

Master/Slave Operation
Each 360 degree corner module consists of a "master" and a "slave" driver circuit board, 360 degree optics and LED light
engines along with a single integrated heatsink bracket.
The "master" circuit board (rear position) must always be powered for the "slave"(front position) to flash. The "master" is always
located in the rear position of the module. The lightbar is wired to allow running only the rear facing LED on each module by
removing power to the front facing "slave" module. This gives a "front-cutoff" function. The flash pattern for each corner pair
can be selected by shorting together the 2-pin header J1, on the "master" , momentarily and releasing. The module is set-up
for "Cycleflash" as a standard. Holding down the 2-pin header for 5 sec., or longer, and releasing will return the pattern to
Cycleflash. The following chart describes the available patterns and order;

LED DIRECTIONAL MODULES
In addition to the 360 warning modules the lightbar may be equipped with a number of single head directional warning LED
modules. These modules are available in either the LED X™ ( 1" X 4" ) ,6-LED OPTIX™ ( 1" X 6" ), 3-LED OPTIX (1"x4"), 33
OPTIX (two 3-Up heads using one 6-LED OPTIX optic) or LC-LED directional modules in stationary and flashing versions ( see
figure 6). The stationary versions can be flashed by connecting the module(s) to any flasher that does not require ground
through the load (example: Code 3® 700 series relay flasher). The flashing modules will have "Cycleflash" as the standard
pattern. The OPTIX and LEDX flash pattern can be changed by shorting the 2-pin header, J1 as shown in Figure 7,
momentarily then releasing. Table 2 shows the available patterns and the order when stepping through patterns. The module
can be reset to "Cycleflash" by shorting the header for greater than 5 seconds and releasing. The LC-LED Modules flash
patterns can be changed as described on page 9.

LC-LED MODULES
The LC-LED modules are equipped with one steady burn and three flashing patterns.To select a different flash pattern, apply +12 or
+24 VDC to the red wire and connect the black wire to the power supply ground. The unit will flash in whatever pattern was last set.
Change the pattern by momentarily touching the white wire to the power supply ground. The flash pattern will change to the next
pattern according to the following list:
-Steady Burn
-75 FPM Single
-75 FPM Quad
-Cycle
Continue to cycle through the various patterns until the desired pattern is selected. The unit will retain this pattern even when power
is removed. On Dual Color Modules, placing the yellow wire to ground will cause the amber LEDs to steady burn. Placing the black
wire to ground will activate the non-amber LEDs. Most lightbars using Dual Color LCLED modules will be wired using a relay that
allows power switching to activate the non-amber portion of the unit. Note: The white flash pattern selection wire must be
protected from contact with the system ground to prevent inadvertent changes to the flash pattern. This can be accom-
plished by sealing or capping the end of the wire. Note: Regardless of the location in the program in the flash pattern list, the unit
can be forced to steady burn by permanently electrically tying the white wire to the black wire.It is recommended that all heads be set
to the desired pattern at a workbench prior to installation.

Maintenance
Lens Cleaning
Use plain water and a soft cloth, or Code 3® lens polish and a very soft paper towel or facial tissue. Because plastic
scratches easily, cleaning is recommended only when necessary (about every six months). Do not subject the lenses to car
washes that use brushes, as these will scratch the lenses.
Lens Removal
First, disengage the lens clips
(4 per lens) as shown in Figure 9.
Finally, insert a screwdriver into
the small slot in the lens clip pocket
or the lens edge, and twist the
screwdriver to lift the lens.
Changing Rotating Reflector Lamps
