OVER-VOLTAGE PROTECTION
When an over-voltage condition is detected, the module will ash an over-voltage warning pattern of 50mS ON/950mS OFF to alert of the over-voltage condition and protect the electronics from damage due to heat/voltage.
THERMAL COMPENSATION PROTECTION
The LED module is designed to provide maximum power output while providing protection to the electronic components by reducing the output power at extreme temperatures.
SYNC 2
Syncronizing the ashing of multiple light modules is accomplished by connecting the Green wires of different light modules together. Up to 24 light modules can be connected for syncronized ashing. All light module ash patterns must be set to the
same ash pattern # to ensure proper operation. Refer to the Sequence Type section in Set-Up Table to setup light modules to ash in alternate or simultaneous ash pattern. NOTE: Will NOT work with non-Sync 2 products such as Ghost, LED3, and
Single Color Intersector. WILL WORK with Sync 2 products nFORCE Secondary Lights, nFORCE FIT and Dual Color Intersector Lights.

FUNCTION TABLES
Changing the function table is only enabled when the LED module is in a ashing mode (disabled in cruise or steady ON functions). The functional operation of the LED module can be changed while applying the +V to the Red wire with the black wire
connected to ground. When the light is ashing, momentarily connect the White wire to ground for >4S and <5S (light will go steady high, steady low, off, steady high, steady low) then release. The function table will now advance to the next table (table 1
to table 2, table 2 to table 3, or table 3 to table 1). Repeat above process until required function table is active.

COLOR SWAP
This function is only valid for dual and tri-color light modules and can only be changed when the light module is in a ashing mode (disabled for single color modules and when light module is operating in cruise or steady ON functions). When the light is
ashing, momentarily connect the white wire to ground for >2S and <3S (light will go steady high, steady low, off) then release. The light module will switch between Color Swap OFF and Color Swap ON. When Color Swap is OFF, the 1st color will ash
1st on a dual/tri color pattern. When Color Swap is ON, the 2nd color will ash 1st on a dual/tri color pattern.
SIMULTANEOUS/ALTERNATE
This function can only be changed when the LED module is in a ashing mode (disabled in cruise or steady ON functions) and only has an effect when at least 2 LED modules have the green sync wire connected together. When the light is ashing,
momentarily connect the white wire to ground for >3S and <4S (light will go steady high, steady low, off, steady high) then release. The light module will switch between Simultaneous and Alternate each time this sequence is done. To have light modules
ash simultaneously, both light modules need to be set to the same sequence type (Set-Up Table). To have light modules ash alternately, the light modules need to be set to different sequence types (Set-Up Table).
ADVANCE PATTERN
Flash pattern can only be changed when the LED module is in a ashing mode (disabled in cruise or steady ON functions). When the light is ashing, momentarily connect the white wire to ground for >250mS and <1S (light will go steady high) then
release. The ash pattern will advance to the next pattern. If the light module was at the last pattern, the pattern will reset to the 1st pattern.
BACKUP PATTERN
This function is only valid when the LED module is in a ashing mode (disabled in cruise or steady ON functions). When the light is ashing, momentarily connect the white wire to ground for >1S and < 2S (light will go steady high, steady low) then
release. The ash pattern will backup to the previous pattern. If the light module was at the rst pattern, the pattern will change to the last pattern on the list.
PATTERN RESET
This function is only valid when the LED module is in a ashing mode (disabled in cruise or steady ON functions). When the light is ashing, momentarily connect the white wire to ground for >5S and <6S (light will go steady high, steady low, off, steady
high, steady low, off) then release. The ash pattern will reset to the 1st pattern in the list.
FACTORY RESET
This function is only valid when the LED module is in a ashing mode (disabled in cruise or steady ON functions). When the light is ashing, momentarily connect the white wire to ground for >6S and <7S (light will go steady high, steady low, off, steady
high, steady low, off, steady high) then release. The LED module will reset to: pattern=1, Function Table=1, Color Swap=OFF, Simultaneous.

REMOTE MODE: FOR USE WITH bluePRINT SYSTEM ONLY
Connecting the Green wire to ground before applying power to the Red or Red/White wires will place the LED module into remote mode and the light output color will be directly controlled by the input wires as shown below.
For Cruise mode or Low Power control of the LED module, the signal to the control wires must be 100 +/- 2Hz using the duty cycle inputs listed below to produce the light output.
