INTRODUCTION
Overview
OPTIMUM Lampheads utilize a super-efcient design to offer a maximum transfer
of light from bulb to scene. The newest addition to the FRC lighting series includes
HIR and HID bulb options not available on classic Focus lights.

50 parabolic curved and aimed surfaces. The innovative design directs light where it
is needed. The low prole of the classic FOCUS offers mounting options that many
other lights cannot.
NIGHTMASTER Lampheads are affordable scene lights that have a proven track
record on emergency apparatus. Simple, functional, and available in multiple styles
and mounting congurations.

SAFETY SUMMARY
FRC lighting products are engineered and manufactured with safety in mind. It is
critical that FRC scene lights are installed, maintained, and operated correctly. Read and
understand all instructions before installing, performing maintenance, or operating.
All components, equipment, and installation procedures shall conform to NFPA
1901, Standard for Automotive Fire Apparatus and NFPA 70 National Electrical
Code.
The following safety precautions shall be observed while performing procedures
in this manual.
General Safety Precautions
Ensure power is off prior to connecting or disconnecting wires and plugs or
performing maintenance.
Scene lighting lampheads are designed for outdoor use and will be extremely
hot when operating. Do not use in areas of limited ventilation.
Installation Safety Precautions
Ensure power is off prior to connecting wires or cable to the power source.
Connect only to the type of power source as indicated on the lamphead
identication label.
Ensure an appropriate sized circuit protection device is installed (circuit breaker
or fuse).
Use a minimum of 16 AWG wire to connect AC lights and 12 AWG to connect
DC lights.
FRC lights are intended for mounting to a noncombustible surface only. Do not
install insulation within 76 mm (3 in) of any part of the light, lighting xture,
or its components.
Install approved rubber or plastic grommets or bushings where wires or cable
will pass through a surface.
Ensure all wire connectors or terminals provide a positive mechanical and
electrical connection.
Electrical connections not enclosed in a box must be covered with an insulation
equivalent to that on the conductors.
Lampheads will be extremely hot when operating, do not mount such that personnel
or equipment could inadvertently come in contact with the lamphead.
Recessed lights require a minimum of 3 inch clearance between wall insulation
and the light housing.
LGT100 Rev0309

Operation Safety Precautions
Operate portable lighting products only from the type of power source indicated
on the identication label.
During operation use the handle to move the light, the housing will be extremely
hot.
Ensure that all lighting components are clear of obstructions when raising
telescopic poles.
Ensure that telescopic poles are lowered and stowed before moving the
vehicle.
Maintenance Safety Precautions
Ensure power is off prior to removing the front glass or opening covers.
Do not operate the light with the front glass removed or cover opened.
Ensure replacement bulbs have the same voltage and wattage.
When handling a new quartz halogen, HIR, or HID bulb avoid touching it except
on the at seal at either end.
Use a clean soft cloth to wipe the reector clean if necessary, do not use liquid
or aerosol cleaners.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Install Lamphead on Telescopic Pole
Lampheads and telescopic poles are shipped apart and need to be assembled
Note: The 512 telescopic pole must be installed before the lamphead is
attached if the small diameter hole is used. Refer to Install Models 510,
512 Top Mount Telescopic Poles.
1. Place the lamphead and the pole on a at surface.
2. Connect the lamphead wires to the pole wires. (Refer to Figure 1.)
a. Ensure that 3/8 inch of bare conductor shows at the end of each wire.
b. Insert the wires in the butt connectors and crimp.
For DC lights:
Connect black to black, white to red.
For AC lights:
Connect black to black, white to white, silver braid to green.
3. Ensure the crimps are tight. (Test by lightly tugging on the wires.)
4. Loop the excess wire in a zig-zag fashion to take up the slack.
Note: Ensure that the wires are not caught and squeezed by the lip of the
pole. If this happens the wire insulation may be cut and short the wires
to the pole.
5. Slide the lamphead onto the pole tucking the wires into the pole.
6. Apply thread lock and tighten the set screws to secure the lamphead on the pole.
(A medium strength locking compound like Loctite blue is recommended.)
LGT100 Rev0309

For DC Powered Lights:
Connect black to black, white to red
For AC Powered Lights:
Connect black to black, white to white, silver braid to green.
Figure 1. Assemble Lamphead and Telescopic Pole
Dimension A should be less than 0.015"
(The thickness of a folded piece of paper).
If A is larger, a wire is probably caught.
Disassemble and check the for wire
insulation damage. If there is no damage,
reassemble.
Loop the excess wire in a
zig-zag to take up the slack
and tuck into the pole.
Slide the lamphead assembly onto the pole.
Make sure that the wires are not caught and
squeezed by the lip of the pole.
Note: The 512 telescopic pole must be
installed before the lamphead is attached
if the small diameter hole is used. Refer
to Install Models 510, 512 Top Mount
Telescopic Poles.
Apply thread lock and
tighten the set screws.

Install Recessed Mount Models 200, 230, 250
1. Measure and mark mounting location for cutout.
2. Cut out mounting hole.
3. Place the light in position to check for fit and mark mounting screw
locations.
4. Double check the clearance around and behind the light housing. Recessed
lights require a minimum of 3 inch clearance between wall insulation and the
light housing.
5. Drill mounting screw holes.
Note: Wires may need to be connected before installing the recessed light.
6. Ensure that approved strain relief for the wiring is installed.
7. Secure the housing with mounting screws.
Wiring
12/24 VDC
Connect the BLACK wire to GROUND.
Connect the RED (or WHITE) wire to POWER.
120/240 VAC
