Sirens produce loud sounds that
may damage hearing:
- Roll up windows.
- Wear hearing protection.
- Use only for emergency response.
- Avoid exposure to siren sound
outside of vehicle.
Microphone
Introduction
The ETCPRSP01 is Remote Mounted
Controller and amplier with lighting control.
It can drive a variety of programmable
powered control lines capable of up to nine
10A and three 20A circuits.
Notice
Controllers provide an essential function of
an effective visual warning system.
However, this controller is only a short range
secondary device. The use of this controller
does not insure that all drivers can or will
abide by or react to an emergency warning
signal, especially at high rates of speeds or
long distances. The operator of the vehicle
must never take the right of way for granted
and it is the operator’s responsibility to
proceed safely.
The effectiveness of this system is highly
dependant on the correct mounting and
wiring. The installer must read and follow
the manufacturer’s installation instructions
and warnings in the manual. The vehicle
operator should verify the system is securely
fastened to the vehicle and properly
functioning.
This system is intended for use by
authorized personnel only. It is the user’s
responsibility to ensure they understand and
operate the emergency warning devices in
compliance with all applicable city, state,
and federal laws and regulations. SoundOff
Signal assumes no liability for any loss
resulting from the use of this system.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TO INSTALLER:
Make sure to read and understand all
instructions and warnings before proceeding
with the installation of this product. Ensure

WARNING
Do not install this product or route its wires in
the air bag deployment area.
Doing so may cause damage to or reduce
effectiveness of the air bag, or create projectile
that could cause serious injury or death.
To determine air bag deployment area refer to
vehicle manufacturer's manual.
MOUNTING
-Amplier Installation-
Before drilling holes, check for clearance to prevent
damage. Check both sides of the mounting surface
before drilling and the be aware of any vehicle
components or other vital parts that may be damaged
during drilling.
Install grommets in any wire passage holes.
1. Slide ¼” hex head bolts into amplier t-slots.
2. Place mounting brackets over bolts.
3. Thread ¼” lock nuts onto bolts and tighten down.
4. Use mounting bracket holes to secure amplier
5. Install amplier with clearance from other objects
for improved ventilation.

A metal clip is provided for mounting the microphone. Choose a
location convenient to the operator and away from any air bag
deployment areas. Using the mounting clip as a template, mark the
two holes to be drilled. Using a 1/8” drill bit, drill the two mounting
holes. Install the two #6 screws provided with the bracket.
WIRING:
WARNING! All customer supplied wires connecting to the
positive terminal of the battery must be sized to supply at least
125% of the maximum operating current and FUSED at the
battery to carry that load.
Ensure the amplier / relay unit is mounted in dry, protected
environment.

Park Kill Input: (Yellow Wire)
The input will silence the tones when the input wire
is activated. The input is typically connected to the
transmission neutral safety switch. If this feature
is required, the installer needs to determine if the
signal wire from the neutral safety switch is switch-
ing the +V or ground side of the circuit. Refer to the
programming instructions on how to set the park kill
polarity on the siren. Extend the park kill input wire
from the amplier to the neutral safety switch using
a minimum 22ga. Wire. Park kill Vin Low is < 5Vdc.
Ignition Input: (Orange/Black Wire)
The input is required to enable this system. Locate
the wire on the vehicle which provides +V when
the ignition switch is turned ON. Extend the ignition
input wire as needed using a minimum of 22ga.

Auxiliary Input: (Violet Wire)
The input is an optional input which will remotely activate the
unit when the auxiliary input wire is connected to ground. If this
feature is needed, connect the auxiliary input wire to a switch
which provides a ground connection when activated. *Park kill
disables any active auxiliary tone. The auxiliary tone can be
reactivated when Park Kill is activated by toggling the Auxiliary
Input.
Radio Rebroadcast Input: (Blue Wires)
The 2 – 18ga blue wires on the 12 pin Molex connector are
used to connect your two-way radio’s external speaker through
the amplier and broadcast through the warning speaker and
is optional. Radio Rebroadcast will not work with remotely
amplied speakers due to the signal amplitude being too
low. Locate the 2 wires that connect the external speaker
to the two-way radio. T-tap one blue wire into the one of the
external speaker wires. T-tap the other blue wire into the other
external speaker wire. If the blue wires need to be extended,
use a minimum of 20ga. Wire. The Radio Rebroadcast volume
must be adjusted prior to placing vehicle into service. Set the
volume of the two-way radio to the normal operating level. Press
the Radio Rebroadcast push-button on the siren control panel.
With a small screwdriver, adjust the radio rebroadcast volume
potentiometer located on the back of the amplier to obtain the
proper volume out the speaker. Turn potentiometer clockwise to
increase volume and counter-clockwise to decrease volume.
Speaker Output: (Orange + Orange/Black Wires), (Green +
Green/Black wires) Route the Orange and Orange/Black wires
from the 4 position connector to the speaker. Use a minimum of
18ga. wire to extend the wires as needed. Connect the Orange
wire to the primary Speaker High wire. Connect the Orange/
Black wire to the primary Speaker Low wire.
Backlight Input: (Gray Wire)
The input will turn on the backlighting of the control panel
whenever +V is applied to the backlight input wire.
Route the amplier backlight input wire to the vehicle’s marker
light wiring using a minimum of 22ga. Wire to extend as needed.
T-tap the backlight input wire into the vehicle’s marker light +V
wire.

Internal Relay Board Fuse replacement:
To replace fuses:
1. Remove power connectors CN8 and CN6 or remove power
to unit.
2. Remove unit from console or obtain access to full top of unit.
3. Depress snaps on top cover and lift open.
4. See chart below for output fuse locations and ratings.
5. Fuse Ratings: Replace with same rated part.
6. Close cover, reinstall connectors and reinstall unit in console.
The button outputs 7 and 8 have the ability to receive power from
an independent external power source or from the internal +V as
supplied to CN8. Both of these outputs use a separate internal
10A mini-ATO fuse which rely on position to determine the source
selection. Each fuse may be placed in one of 2 locations. See
diagram below.
* If the fuse is placed in the fuse holder near the back edge
of the PCB that output will be powered from an external source,
labeled “relay #(x) input” on CN3.
** If the fuse is placed in the fuse holder away from the back
edge of the PCB that output will be powered from the internal +V
source that comes from CN8 pin 5.

Dielectric Grease on Molex Connectors
Introduction
Molex has advised to add dielectric grease for “Mini-Fit
Sr.” connectors. On the SoundOff Signal 400 Series Sirens
this includes the Connector (CN8) on the back of the siren.
Connector CN8 is used on the 400 Series Sirens to supply
power to the Slide and Auxiliary outputs of the siren.
This connector is a member of the “Mini-Fit Sr.” family
manufactured by Molex. The dielectric grease / lubricant
should be applied to these tin-plated terminals that are
used for CN8 and/or the mating connector included with
the Siren. The application of the grease should take no
more than 5 minutes for each siren.
Application Instruction
The dielectric grease should be applied after all crimping,
soldering, and assembly is complete. It should be applied
to all ve (5) terminals. Care must be taken to prevent any
scratching or damage to the plating in the contact area.
Avoid contamination from dust, dirt, or other materials.
Molex recommends Nye lubricant, Nyogel 760G
and provides detailed instructions in this application
