ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Featured Highlights:
*Mode Select: The MAGNUM™ Lightbar is equipped with 2 selectable pattern configuration modes via the Mode Select Input. Default is Mode 1 where
the input is floating, Mode 2 is in use when the input is activated. This feature allows 2 complete sets of patterns to be programmed into the Lightbar's non-
volatile memory. Once programming configuration is complete, the Mode can be changed "on-the-fly" by an activation switch.
*Cruise Mode: Allows the user to program any Light Head Group(s) to "Glow" when this feature is activated.
*Directional Arrow Built-in: If the lightbar was purchased with a directional arrow, the directional controller is built-in w/4 arrow patterns for each
direction and 9 warning patterns for warning functions.
Direct Connect Auxiliary Output: The lightbar is equipped with one 3.5A auxiliary output. Connect +10-16Vdc or an external flasher output to Aux_In using a
.250" female spade terminal or apply power to Breakout Box Light Green Wire, pin 5 or Pink Wire of discrete cable harness for activation. Connect ground and
power of Auxiliary Light to GND and AUX_OUT using .250" female spades.
*Not available with Direct Connect Harness option.
Power Cable:
1. Route lightbar power cables as close to vehicles power source (battery) as possible.
2. Install a 40Amp Fuse (customer supplied) to the end of the RED wire of the Lightbar Power Cable.
a. Remove the fuse before connecting any wires to the battery.
b. DO NOT USE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSIBLE LINK.
3. Connect the other end of the Fuse to the Positive (+) terminal of the battery.
a. DO NOT use any more than 2ft of wire between the battery terminal and the fuse. Ensure the wire is protected and secured from being cut
into: this non-fused wire
4. Connect the BLACK wire to the factory chassis ground right next to the battery.
Control (Data) Cable:
1. Route Lightbar Control Cable to the location where all controlling equipment will be, i.e. switch box, center console area.
2. Locate the Breakout Box in the same area to connect wires from the switching equipment to the Breakout Box wire harness.
NOTE: Power is supplied to Breakout Box through data cable, no additional power connections necessary.
Initial Power up Test:
1. Insert 40 Amp Fuse (not included) into Fuse Holder (as stated above).
2. Plug data jack into Data 1 connector of the Breakout Box.
3. Observe the GREEN Data Link indicator LED on the Breakout Box; the LED will turn steady ON about 15 seconds after main power is connected.
4. When GREEN LED is steady ON (see below), the lightbar is ready to be configured.
Low Power (Standby) Mode
If there is no output to the breakout box for 15 seconds, the lightbar will go into a "standby" mode. The standby mode is a low power mode that is used to extend
the life of your battery. The green light will turn off when the lightbar enters standby mode. The red light will flash every five seconds showing that it has power. The
lightbar will awaken from the standby mode if any input is activated on the breakout box.
In standby mode, each switch in the down position will contribute to another 0.03A of standby current.
If using Direct Connect Harness the lightbar will go into "Standby" mode in 180 seconds after an input is removed from +vdc. Any input except pattern select will
wake up the lightbar.

CLEANING & CARE OF YOUR LIGHTBAR:
Keeping the lenses clean and scratch free will optimize the performance of
the lightbar. The exterior of the lightbar including lenses should be cleaned
with mild soapy water and a soft cotton cloth to remove dirt, grime and
insects. Never use window cleaners or harsh chemicals on the lenses; this
may cause failure of the lenses or reduce clarity resulting in the reduction of
light output.
MOUNTING INTEGRITY:
A review of bolt/hardware/mounting bracket integrity should be performed
at the beginning and end of each shift.
WARNING - DRILLING ANY HOLES INTO THE LIGHTBAR IS NOT
RECOMMENDED! THE RISK OF DAMAGING INTERNAL COMPONENTS
AND THE RESULTING FAILURE OF THE LIGHTBAR WILL VOID ANY

ANY METAL SHARDS OR REMNANTS. INSTALL GROMMETS INTO
ALL WIRE PASSAGE HOLES.
WARNING - ROUTE WIRES ONLY IN LOCATIONS THAT ARE NOT
SUBJECTED TO POTENTIAL WEAR. MAKE SURE TO AVOID ROUTING
WIRES IN THE DEPLOYMENT AREA OF YOUR AIR BAG. REFER TO
YOUR VEHICLE OWNER’S MANUAL FOR AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT
ZONES.
