IMPORTANT NOTICE TO INSTALLER: Make sure to read and understand
all instructions and warnings before proceeding with the installation of this
product. Ensure that the manual and any warning cards are delivered to the
end user of this equipment. Proper installation of the lightbar requires the
installer to have a thorough knowledge of automotive electronics, systems,
and procedures. Lightbars provide an essential function of an effective visual
warning system. The use of the lightbar 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 the lightbar 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 daily that the lightbar is securely fastened to the vehicle and
properly functioning before operating vehicle. The lightbar 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
the applicable city, state and federal laws and regulations. SoundOff Signal
assumes no liability for any loss resulting from the use of this warning device.

nFORCE LED Interior Lightbar
ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
Featured Highlights & Terminology:
Mode Select: The nForce Interior Lightbar is equipped with 4 selectable pattern configuration modes. The default input wire configuration allows
for 2 modes, and an additional 2 modes may be configured with the PC Application using any available input wires. Default is Mode 1 where the
Mode select input is floating, Mode 2 is in use when the input activated. This feature allows up to 4 completely different sets of patterns to be
programmed into the Light-bar's non-volatile memory. Once programming configuration is complete, the Mode can be changed “on-the-fly” by an
activation switch which applies voltage to the Mode input wire(s).
Front & Rear Installations:
Cruise Mode: Allows the user to program any light group(s) to “Glow” when this feature is activated. For dual / tri color bars, the color for each
light group is selectable.
Takedown Mode: Allows the user to program any Light Head Group(s) to turn on steady when this feature is activated to provide steady ON
takedown lighting.
Steady ON Mode: Accessable with PC App only and allows the user to program any light module to turn on steady at 50% duty cycle.
Scene Light Mode: Allows the user to program any Light Head Group(s) to turn on steady when this feature is activated to provide additional
scene lighting. The activation of this input also activates the Takedown function
Low Power Mode: Operates lighting at reduced intensity.
Rear Installations:
Stop / Tail / Turn Mode: Allows the user to program any Light Head Group(s) to turn operate in 2 levels of intensity for tail and stop/turn func-
tions.
Directional Arrow Built-in: The directional controller is built-in w/ 9 arrow patterns for each of the 3 modes (left arrow, right arrow, and center
out arrow) and the color is selectable for dual / tri color bars
WARNING
!
ALL CUSTOMER SUPPLIED POWER WIRES CONNECTING TO THE POSITIVE (+) OR NEGATIVE (-) BATTERY
TERMINAL OR LOCAL CHASIS GROUND (-) MUST BE SIZED TO SUPPLY AT LEAST 125% OF THE MAXIMUM
CURRENT AND PROPERLY FUSED AT THE POWER SOURCE WITH APPROPIATELY RATED FUSE.
Power Cable:
1. Route lightbar power cables as close to vehicles power source (battery) as possible.
2. Install a maximum of 15 Amp Fuse (customer supplied) to the end of the RED wire of the Lightbar Power Cable.
a. Remove the fuse before connecting any wires to the battery.
b. DO NOT USE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSIBLE LINK.
3. Connect the other end of the Fuse to the POSITIVE (+) terminal of the battery or other high current source.
a. Do NOT use any more than 2ft of wire between the power source and the fuse and ensure the wire is
protected and secured from being cut into; this is non-fused wire.
4. Connect the BLACK wire to the factory chassis ground right next to the battery or other ground location capable of handling
high current.
5. Connect the White wire to the Light Green wire on the breakout box. Make sure connection is insulated from other wire
connections and vehicle ground
Ignition Wire:
1. Connect the Pink/White wire to a switched power source.

Initial Power up Test: Breakout Box needs Power (+12V to PIN 17) & Ground (PIN 4) in order to operate.
1. Insert Fuse(s) into Fuse Holder(s).
2. Observe the GREEN Data Link indicator LED on the Breakout Box; the LED will turn ON.
3. The Red indicator LED on the breakout box will be steady ON whenever any of the input wires are active
Low Power (Standby) Mode (reduced standby current)
If there is no input to the breakout box the lightbar will go into a “standby” mode. The standby mode is a low power mode that is used to extend
the life of your battery. The lightbar will awaken from the standby mode if any input is activated on the breakout box.
