Introduction
The RX 2700™ Lightbar is approximately 2.7" high, yet delivers 360° of unobstructed warning signal. PriZm™ reector technology means more
signal power and versatility than any other lightbar of its size.
The low prole and aerodynamic lines reduce air drag, which results in fuel savings and stability at high speeds. This lightbar has a strong extruded
internal frame, shock-resistant polycarbonate lenses, and warning signals that exceed SAE standards.
The RX 2700 is designed on a modular basis, which means that the lightbar can be customized to meet any requirement. The RX 2700 has room
for numerous halogen and LED options. While we do not recommend a light installed in every location, the design of the RX 2700 offers the ultimate
exibility in the location of warning and auxiliary lights.
The use of this or any warning device does not ensure that all drivers can or will observe or react to an emergency warning
signal. Never take the right-of-way for granted. It is your responsibility to be sure you can proceed safely before entering
an intersection, driving against trafc, responding at a high rate of speed, or walking on or around trafc lanes.
The effectiveness of this warning device is highly dependent upon correct mounting and wiring. Read and follow the
manufacturer’s instructions before installing or using this device. The vehicle operator should insure daily that all features
of the device operate correctly. In use, the vehicle operator should insure the projection of the warning signal is not
blocked by vehicle components (i.e.: open trunks or compartment doors), people, vehicles, or other obstructions.
This equipment is intended for use by authorized personnel only. It is the user’s responsibility to understand and obey
all laws regarding emergency warning devices. The user should check all applicable city, state and federal laws and
regulations.
Code 3, Inc., assumes no liability for any loss resulting from the use of this warning device.
Proper installation is vital to the performance of this warning device and the safe operation of the emergency vehicle.
It is important to recognize that the operator of the emergency vehicle is under psychological and physiological stress
caused by the emergency situation. The warning device should be installed in such a manner as to: A) Not reduce the
output performance of the system, B) Place the controls within convenient reach of the operator so that he can operate
the system without losing eye contact with the roadway.
Emergency warning devices often require high electrical voltages and/or currents. Properly protect and use caution
around live electrical connections. Grounding or shorting of electrical connections can cause high current arcing, which
can cause personal injury and/or severe vehicle damage, including re.
PROPER INSTALLATION COMBINED WITH OPERATOR TRAINING IN THE PROPER USE OF EMERGENCY WARNING DEVICES IS ESSENTIAL TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF EMERGENCY PERSONNEL AND THE PUBLIC.

Unpacking & Pre-Installation
Carefully remove the lightbar and place it on a at surface, taking care not to scratch the lenses or damage the cable coming out of the bottom.
Examine the unit for transit damage, broken lamps, etc. Report any damage to the carrier and keep the shipping carton.
Standard lightbars are built to operate on 12 volt D.C. negative ground (earth) vehicles. If you have an electrical system other than 12 volt D.C.
negative ground (earth), and have not ordered a specially wired lightbar, contact the factory for instructions.
Test the unit before installation. To test, touch the black wire to the ground (earth) and the other wires to +12 volts D.C., in accordance with the
instructions attached to the cable (an automotive battery is preferable for this test). A battery charger may be used, but please note that some
electronic options (ashers, etc.) may not operate normally when powered by a battery charger. If problems occur at this point, contact the factory.
WARNING!
Utilizing non-factory supplied screws and/or mounting brackets and/or the improper number of screws may
result in loss of warranty coverage on the equipment.
Installation & Mounting
MOUNTING HARDWARE - Mounting hardware is usually packed in a small box inside the main carton although some mounting kits may be shipped
separately. Refer to the Installation Manual included in the mounting kit for mounting instructions. Note: Hook-on mounting for "gutterless" type
vehicles will require a special hook for mounting. Several special application hooks are available. Contact the factory for details.
Wiring Instructions
Before attempting to connect wiring, refer to wire tag attached to the lightbar's main cable. Each wire in the cable controls a separate function of the
Central Controller as described in the wire tag.
The RX 2700™ with Central Controller provides an ArrowStik® function as an optional feature. Connect the appropriate control wires to any control
switch capable of providing +power at approximately 25ma current. As noted in the wire description, connecting both the LEFT Arrow and RIGHT
Arrow wire to +power at the same time enables the Center-Out ArrowStik function.
Larger wires and tight connections will provide longer service life for components. For high current wires it is highly
recommended that terminal blocks or soldered connections be used with shrink tubing to protect the connections. Do
not use insulation displacement connectors (e.g. 3M® Scotchlock type connectors). Route wiring using grommets
and sealant when passing through compartment walls. Minimize the number of splices to reduce voltage drop. High
ambient temperatures (e.g. underhood) will signicantly reduce the current carrying capacity of wires, fuses, and
circuit breakers. Use "SXL" type wire in engine compartment. All wiring should conform to the minimum wire size
and other recommendations of the manufacturer and be protected from moving parts and hot surfaces. Looms,
grommets, cable ties, and similar installation hardware should be used to anchor and protect all wiring. Fuses or
circuit breakers should be located as close to the power takeoff points as possible and properly sized to protect the
wiring and devices. Particular attention should be paid to the location and method of making electrical connections
and splices to protect these points from corrosion and loss of conductivity. Ground terminations should only be made
to substantial chassis components, preferably directly to the vehicle battery. The user should install a fuse sized to
approximately 125% of the maximum Amp capacity in the supply line to protect against short circuits. For example,
a 30 Amp fuse should carry a maximum of 24 Amps. DO NOT USE 1/4" DIAMETER GLASS FUSES AS THEY ARE
NOT SUITABLE FOR CONTINUOUS DUTY IN SIZES ABOVE 15 AMPS. Circuit breakers are very sensitive to high
temperatures and will "false trip" when mounted in hot environments or operated close to their capacity.

Optional LED ArrowStik® feature
The CODE 3 Central Controller has an optional programmable ArrowStik® feature integrated into the light bar. The ArrowStik® operates
independently of the other features of the Central Controller. Refer to the ArrowStik® Programming section of this manual for detailed
information on pattern selection and operation instruction.
This Product contains high intensity LED devices. To prevent eye damage, DO NOT stare into light beam at close range.
OPTIONS & SPECIFICATIONS
Many options are available for the RX 2700™. This section is designed to describe the function of the various options.
LED WARNING MODULES
Fusing Considerations
The RX 2700 Lightbar with Central Controller should be installed with an external fuse or circuit breaker in the RED lead of the two conductor 10
AWG power cable. If the lightbar is equipped with LIT3 mounting kit with external Halogen Takedown and Alley Lights, the recommend external fuse
size is 50A. If the lightbar is not equipped with LIT3 mounting kit with external Halogen Takedown and Alley Lights, the recommend external fuse size
is 30A. The Alley Lights and the Takedown Lights are protected by two 20A mini-ATO style fuses located on the Central Controller board. The internal
circuitry of the Central Controller is reverse polarity and over current protected by automatically resetting solid state fuses. Each LED output on the
Central Controller board is protected against over current and over heating with automatically resetting output devices.
Dim Operation
Lightbar LED modules are equipped with a low power "Dimming" mode. Dimming will be controlled by applying +12V by way of the appropriate
wire(color) in the wire harness/wire list. When DIM is engaged, the LED's will operate in a reduced power mode. Note: the corner mounted
lightheads are excepted from this function and will not dim. Please contact the factory if more information is needed concerning the dimming
mode.
The Dim setting reduces the light output of emergency warning lights reducing the effectiveness of them especially
in brightly lit areas. Failure to use adequate light for the circumstances can cause motorists to fail to see the
emergency vehicle and lead to serious personal injury or death. Never use the DIM setting in a brightly lit area.
Use of the DIM setting may cause emergency lights to not comply with applicable emergency warning light standards. Use caution when using the DIM setting to assure that motorists can clearly see the emergency vehicle.
Code 3® PriZm™ LED Reector 360° Corner Modules
The RX 2700 Lightbar is equipped with new Code 3® PriZm LED Reector 360° corner LED modules that provide a full 360 degrees of warning. The
lighthead has been designed to exceed all applicable requirements for 360° warning devices in Red, Blue, Amber and White.

The ash pattern for these modules is chosen by the following procedure:
Selecting Flash Patterns
The Pattern Select wire is the BLK/RED wire in the sixteen conductor lightbar control cable and is activated by momentarily touching the wire to
+power.
STEP 1
Power-up the lightbar and select the Level-1 ash mode by applying +power to the GRN/BLK wire in the 16 conductor control cable.
STEP 2
Observe the ashing pattern operation and determine which pattern is in operation for Level-1. Refer to Table 1A. This table shows the available
ash patterns. Note: the Factory Default is different and identied in the table for each of the ash mode Levels (L1, L2, L3). Once the ash pattern
has been determined, proceed to Step 3.
STEP 3
Scroll to the next ash pattern by momentarily holding the Pattern Select wire (BLK/RED) to +power for ~1 sec, until the lightbar LEDs switches ash
patterns, and then releasing it. This will step to the next pattern in numbered order as listed in Table 1A for the selected 3-Level mode. The new
pattern is automatically stored each time. Repeat this procedure for Level-2 and Level-3.
Note: HOLD the Pattern Select wire to the +POWER source for about 1 second and release then observe that the ash pattern has
changed to the next pattern in the sequence. To restore the Factory Default Emergency Warning Flash Patterns, hold the Pattern Select
wire on the +POWER source for ~four (4) seconds while L1, L2 or L3 is enabled.
Note: All control inputs are +power enabled.

Notes: *When the Pattern Select wire is connected to +power when all other inputs are off, test mode is enabled to exercise all outputs
in sequence until +power is removed from the wire.
**When the ArrowStik Left and ArrowStik Right wires are both connected to +power, the Center-Out ArrowStik function is activated.
The priority for the 3-Level inputs is L3, L2 then L1 in that order. In other words, if power is applied to both the L1 and L2 inputs, the L2
function will be enabled.
If the lightbar is equipped with Steady Burning LED light heads, these heads are enabled with the 3-Level input wires. The jumper plug must
be moved to JP1, JP2 or JP3 to select the 3-Level input which will enable the Steady Burning LED heads, (see Figure 1).
The Steady Burn function for both the Takedown and Alley lights will always override the Wig/Wag Flash function.
The Cruise Light function is mutually exclusive with all other functions. If any other input has +power applied, the Cruise Lights will be turned
off.
The Dim function sets the brightness of the LEDs in both the ArrowStik mode and Emergency Warning Flash mode.
The Front Cut and Rear Cut functions must be used with the greatest care to ensure that the use of these functions does not diminish the
effectiveness of the Emergency Warning signal.

The Central Controller is designed to offer user selectable trafc directing signals and trafc warning options.This allows the greatest exibility when
controlling the various RX 2700 congurations available. The end user can match the desired signal to a particular lightbar conguration whether it is
a 6, 7 or 8 lighthead conguration.
The lightbar will come from the factory with the default patterns selected as indicated in Table 2. The default conguration will be for a 7 head system
with all building patterns ( Building 7 HD ). If it is desired to change the pattern in any of the modes ( LEFT, CTR, RIGHT or FLASH ) or if you have
other then a 7 head system (6 or 8 head ) and you want to optimize the patterns for your particular conguration, then follow the programming
procedure outlined.

Selecting the ArrowStik™ Pattern
As mentioned previously, the Central Controller will come from the factory with the ArrowStik patterns set in the default conguration which, is the
Building 7HD conguration. See Table 2. The current conguration can be determined by observing the operation of the ArrowStik™ unit. Note that
Flash Signal Patterns marked with an Asterisk "*" are available in Fast, Medium or Slow ash rate.
Note: It will be important to observe the operation of the ArrowStik unit during the programming procedure while stepping through the
signal options. Signals are available for 6, 7 or 8 head congurations. Also refer to the trafc directing signal options in Table 2 for the
following procedure.
The Pattern Select wire is the BLK/RED wire in the sixteen conductor lightbar control cable and is activated by momentarily touching the wire to
+power.
STEP 1
Power-up the lightbar and select the ArrowStik mode that you wish to program (LEFT, CENTER-OUT, RIGHT or FLASH ).
STEP 2
Observe the ArrowStik operation and determine the current mode. Determine what pattern and conguration the control head is currently in, if not in
the factory default.
Once the pattern / conguration has been determined, proceed to Step 3.
STEP 3
Refer to Table 2, on Page 8. This table shows the available patterns for each mode and their order in program memory. Notice that for the LEFT,
CENTER-OUT and RIGHT positions there are four (4) pattern choices; Building, Building with 3 Flash for the end lights, Build/Collapse with 3 ash
for the end lights, and Build/Collapse with no end ash, three (3) congurations for the number of heads; 6, 7, or 8 HD and three (3) speeds; Fast,
Medium and Slow. There are a total of twelve possible selections for each conguration of light heads and then you return to the top selection,
Building 8 HD, Fast. Starting from the rst pattern in Table 1 you can step through each pattern, ( 1-4 ) for an 8HD, ( 5-8 ) for a 6HD and ( 9-12 ) for
a 7 HD conguration, by momentarily holding the Pattern Select wire to +power for 1-2 sec, until the Arrowstik™ LEDs stop, and then releasing. This
will step to the next pattern in Table 2 for the selected mode. The new pattern is automatically stored each time.
Note: HOLD the Pattern Select wire to +POWER source until you are sure Arrowstik™ pattern has changed (~1 second) before releasing
the wire from the +POWER source. To restore the Factory Default Arrowstik™ patterns, hold the PGM wire on the +POWER source for
~four (4) seconds .
When the FLSH function is selected, the same procedure applies as above, but you will notice in Table 2 that the patterns are not grouped by the
number of heads or outputs. These are trafc warning patterns and work equally well for any conguration of LED modules. There are a total of
nine ( 1-9 ) trafc warning patterns available. Flash patterns marked with an asterisk "*" may also be selectable in Fast, Medium or Slow ash rate.
When you have programmed the desired pattern for the selected function, proceed to Step 4.
STEP 4
Select another mode and repeat the previous steps until all of the functions are programmed as desired.

Maintenance
Lens Cleaning
Use plain water and a soft cloth, or Code 3® lens polish and a
very soft paper towel or facial tissue. Plastic scratches easily, as
a result, cleaning is recommended only when necessary (about
every six months). Do not subject the lenses to car washes that
use brushes, as these will scratch the lenses.
Lens Removal
First, disengage the lens clips (4 per lens) as shown in Figure
2. Finally, insert a screwdriver into the small slot in the lens clip
pocket for the lens edge, and twist the screwdriver to lift the lens.
Lamp Replacement
Remove the lens as outlined above. Next, inspect the lamp and
refer below to replace the lamp.
Note: Make sure lamp is cool before attempting to change it.
