To Program Warning Lights/Select Flash Patterns:
All Warning lights are activated using the 12 conductor cable that exits the bar. All wire colors referenced in the below instructions refer to the 12 conductor cable.
For Complete Bar Simultaneous or Alternating Synchronized Patterns:
1. Activate all WARNING modules by applying +10-16 Vdc to the RED, ORANGE, BLUE, GREEN and BLUE/BLACK wires. Apply BLACK wire to Ground.
2. Momentarily touching and removing the WHITE wire to ground for no more than one second will advance the lightbar to the next ash pattern. See ash
pattern table provided below for complete list. Continuing to touch and remove the WHITE wire to ground will allow you to scroll through the pattern list. After
the last pattern, #28 is reached the patterns will start over beginning at ash pattern #1.
3. To go back one ash pattern: Touch WHITE wire to ground for more than two seconds but less than ve seconds.
4. To reset to ash pattern #1: Touch WHITE wire to ground for more than ve seconds. Lightbar will reset to ash pattern #1 after ve seconds.
For Individual Corner and Inboard Simultaneous and Alternating Synchronized Patterns:
1. Apply +10-16 Vdc to activate the desired WARNING modules using the activation wires outlined in the diagram provided.
2. Momentarily touching and removing the WHITE wire to ground for no more than one second will advance the modules to the next ash pattern. See ash
pattern table provided below for complete list.
3. To go back one ash pattern: Touch WHITE wire to ground for more than two seconds but less than ve seconds.
4. To reset to ash pattern #1: Touch WHITE wire to ground for more than ve seconds. Lightbar will reset to ash pattern #1 after ve seconds.
NOTE: SKYFIRE™ is equipped with Flash Pattern Recall. Once you have selected a pattern the lightbar will always activate to that pattern every time the unit is
powered up. Remember to tape up and secure WHITE wire so that it will not accidentally change your selected pattern once set.

may cause failure of the lenses or reduce clarity resulting in the reduction of
light output.
