Programming the 295SSA2:
WARNING: Never try to program the unit while it is wired to the
vehicle. The unit must be removed from the vehicle before
programming. For programming, connect positive (+) 12 volts and
ground to J7, and pin 1 of J5 to (+) 12 volts only.
Programming the 295SSA2:
The 295SSA2 has the ability to program both the siren switches and the
lighting control switches via the keypad of the control head.
The 295SSA2 programmable switches include 7 lighting control switches
(SL1, SL2, SL3, SW5, SW6, SW7, SW8) and 5 siren control switches (H/
F, MAN, A/H, SIR, Rad). For each of the lighting control switches there are
corresponding relay outputs.
The 295SSA2 has the capability of customizing how the lighting control
switches operate, and how they control the relay outputs as well as siren
enable. Lighting control switches SW5, 6, 7 and 8 can be configured to
operate in one of seven switch types: push on push off, momentary,
flashing, timed output, TA pattern control, TA flash control or ‘Aly cycle’.
Any of the lighting control switches can be programmed to activate any
combination of relay outputs. Any of the lighting control switches can be
configured to remotely activate or deactivate any other lighting control
switches. Any of the lighting control switches can be configured to activate
the siren into the HF mode. One units programmed configuration can be
copied to another unit, and factory defaults can be restored.
Any tone can be programmed into any active siren control location. Title
13 Operation (and a set of title 13 tones) can be programmed as well as
Ignition Shutdown Delay and Indicator or Backlight intensity. The following
sections describe how to program the unit.
Programming the lighting control operations:
Put the unit into “Lighting control programming mode” by placing DIP
switch 1&3 into the ON position and DIP switch 2&4 in the OFF position
(See wiring diagram). With the DIP switches in this position siren functions
are disabled, leaving the lighting functions and lighting programming
active.
(1) Switch Type Programming:
Lighting control switches SW5, 6, 7 and 8 can be configured to operate as
one of seven types. The types are: Push On Push Off, Momentary,
Flashing Output (60 FPM), Timed Output (10 seconds), TA pattern
control, TA flash, or ‘Aly cycle’. Factory Default: SW5 = ‘Aly cycle’, SW6,7
= push on-push off SW8 = Momentary (DIP SWITCH SETTING:
SWITCHES 1 & 3 ON / SWITCHES 2&4 OFF)
To Configure a switch’s “Switch Type”:
1. Put the unit into “Switch Type” configuration Mode:
Turn all switches off.
• Press and hold the RAD switch.
• Press and release momentary switch SL1.
• Release the RAD switch.
To confirm entry into this configuration mode,
LED 4 on the Arrow indicator will light up.
2. Select a switch to be configured:
• Press and release the switch that you wish to configure.
The selected switch’s light will turn on steady. The slide switch indicator
lights will light up indicating the type of switch that is currently configured
(table 2).
3. Choose a “Switch Type” for the
selected switch:
• Press and release the AIRHORN switch
to cycle through the switch type choices
in table 2.
• Stop when the indicator lights match the
desired switch type.
4. Store and activate the switch's
“Switch Type”:
Press and release the RAD switch.
All of the indicator lights will turn off and the data will be stored. This will
put the unit back into lighting operating mode, and this change can be
tested. To configure another switch start back at step 1.
(2) Relay Output Programming:
Any of the lighting control switches can be configured to activate any
combination of the relay outputs.
DIP SWITCH SETTING: SWITCHES 1 & 3 ON / SWITCHES 2 & 4 OFF
To Configure a switch's relay outputs:
1. Put the unit into “Relay Output” configuration mode:
Turn all Momentary switches off.
• Press and hold the RAD switch.
• Press and release momentary switch SL2.
• Release the RAD switch.
To confirm entry into this configuration mode,
LED 3 on the Arrow indicator will light up.
2. Select a switch to be configured:
Press and release the switch that you wish to configure.
All switch indicator lights whose corresponding relay output is already in
the selected switch’s configuration will turn on steady.
3. Add or delete relay outputs activated by the switch:
• Press and release one of the switches to add or delete its
corresponding output. This switches indicator light will turn on steady
when its corresponding output is selected to be activated.
Outputs J1 pin 10(WHT/YEL), J1 pin 12(WHT/BLU) and J1 pin 11(WHT/
GRN) can be added or deleted by using switches H/F, MAN and A/H
respectfully.
4. Store and activate the switch's relay output pattern:
Press and release the RAD switch.
All indicator lights will turn off and the data will be stored. This will put the
unit back into lighting operating mode, and this change can be tested.
To configure another switch start back at step 1.
(3) Re-Setting Factory Defaults
(lighting and siren operation):
(DIP SWITCH SETTING: SWITCHES 1 & 3 ON / SWITCHES 2 & 4 OFF)
To restore the factory defaults:
Turn all switches off.
• Press and hold the RAD switch.
• Press and release momentary switch SL3.
• Release the RAD switch.
