WARNING!
1. Proper installation combined with operator training in the use, care, and maintenance of emergency warning devices are essential to
ensure the safety of you and those you are seeking to protect.
2. Exercise caution when working with live electrical connections.
3. This product must be properly grounded. Inadequate grounding and/or shorting of electrical connections can cause high current
arcing, which can cause personal injury and/or severe vehicle damage, including re.
4. Proper placement and installation are vital to the performance of this warning device. Install this product so that output performance
of the system is maximized and the controls are placed within convenient reach of the operator so that s/he can operate the system
without losing eye contact with the roadway.
5. Do not install this product or route any wires in the deployment area of an air bag. Equipment mounted or located in an air bag
deployment area may reduce the e󰀨ectiveness of the air bag or become a projectile that could cause serious personal injury or death.
Refer to the vehicle owner’s manual for the air bag deployment area. It is the responsibility of the user/operator to determine a suit-
able mounting location ensuring the safety of all passengers inside the vehicle particularly avoiding areas of potential head impact.
6. It is the responsibility of the vehicle operator to ensure during use that all features of this product work correctly. In use, the vehicle
operator should ensure the projection of the warning signal is not blocked by vehicle components (i.e., open trunks or compartment
doors), people, vehicles or other obstructions.
7. The use of this or any other warning device does not ensure all drivers can or will observe or react to a 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
tra󰀩c, responding at a high rate of speed, or walking on or around tra󰀩c lanes.
8. This equipment is intended for use by authorized personnel only. The user is responsible for understanding and obeying all laws
regarding warning signal devices. Therefore, the user should check all applicable city, state, and federal laws and regulations. The
manufacturer assumes no liability for any loss resulting from the use of this warning device.
Do not install and/or operate this safety product unless you have read and understand the safety information

Installation & Mounting:
Carefully remove the beacon and place it on a at surface. Examine the
unit for transit damage, broken lenses, etc. If damage is found, contact the
transit company or distributor. Do not use damaged or broken parts.
Permanent Mounting:
Caution: When drilling into any vehicle surface, make sure the area
is free from any electrical wires, fuel lines, vehicle upholstery, etc. that
could be damaged
Position the beacon in the desired mounting location. Using the base ange
as a template, mark the mounting hole locations. Drill three 5.2mm mounting
holes. Drill a hole for power wire routing as desired. The use of a grommet
or silicone is required for wires passing through compartment walls, or
where sealing is required. Secure the beacon in place using the included
#10 hardware.
Installation and Operating Instructions
EB8160 - Heavy duty beacon
Wiring Instructions:
Important! This unit is a safety device, and it must be connected to
its own separate, fused power point to assure its continued operation
should any other electrical accessory fail.
Wiring for single colour beacons is as shown in FIGURE 1. All wiring should
be a minimum of 2mm². The positive line must have a 10A automotive
fuse, as shown. A switch may be used to control the on/o󰀨 function. Route
the ground wire directly back to negative battery terminal. Pack dielectric
grease, such as Dow Corning 4, around each electric connection exposed
to moisture or the ambient environment.
Important! Disable power before wiring the beacon.

Synchronisation:
Syncing capabilities are available with all compatible ECCO products via the yellow wire with the ash patterns indicated in the charts below:
1. Determine the desired style of ash pattern for each unit and set each unit individually (without the yellow wires connected together) to avoid confusion. It
is also strongly recommended that the same style of ash pattern be used on all units to produce the most e󰀨ective warning pattern. NOTE: Phases 1 and 2
for each style of ash pattern in the table denote the relative timing between units connected in a synchronizing installation. To operate simultaneously, each
unit must be set to the same phase (1 + 1 or 2 + 2); to operate alternately, units must be set to have the opposite phase (1+ 2 or 2 + 1).
2. Connect the yellow sync wires together and check that the units are ashing in a synchronized manner as expected. If a pattern on one unit appears
incorrect, the blue pattern select wire can be used to cycle forward or backward on that individual unit until the correct pattern is selected. Note: This will only
change the pattern in the one unit and will not a󰀨ect the other units connected to the yellow sync wire.
3. If the yellow wire is unused, leave unconnected and insulated.
