GENERAL
This unit is designed for easy operation under the stress associated with high-speed pursuit.
Most siren functions are accessible with one simple motion without repetitive activation of
switches or automatic timed switching that can interfere with desired operation.
SELECTOR SWITCH
The 6-position rotary selector switch controls the primary operating mode of the siren.

a radio speaker input for re-broadcast outside the vehicle.
The radio must be connected and RADIO VOLUME
ADJUSTed for this mode to function.
Standby - A silent mode that may be overridden anytime with
the Siren push-button.
Mech - A simulated mechanical siren tone used anytime.
Wail - A slower changing tone used on highways.
Yelp - A rapidly changing tone used in congested areas.
Phaser - A very rapidly changing tone used at intersections
or in highly congested areas. May be optionally replaced with
Two-Tone which is two alternating frequencies like a
European HI-LO. See OPTION SWITCHES section.
