The LCS800 series is designed to allow maximum ersatility in mounting. The control
head is remote from the siren amplifier and light relay control box, creating a

the center console. The amplifier box and arrow stick control box can then be
mounted remotely in the trunk, under the dashboard, under the seat, or where er
con enient. The control head is a ailable with an adjustable “U” bracket or with a

A Park Kill option is pro ided for connection to a door switch, etc. to disable the siren

The LCS800 series has been designed with se eral protection features to pro ide

siren output, protecting both the amplifier and the speaker. Fused inputs pro ide
safety against re erse polarity. Speaker diagnostics pro ides user feedback as well
as shutdown protection against speaker opens and shorts. The first four light output
functions are indi idually protected with 20A fuses, while the fifth light output
function is protected with a 2A in-line fuse. CAUTION: These protection features will
not guard against o erloading the outputs.
