Installation

CanTrol Module

1. Locate a suitable mounting location. A dry, cool compartment is a good choice.

2. Position the CanTrol Module on the proposed mounting location. Using an awl or similar tool, scribe the mounting surface where the mounting holes are to be drilled. Make sure that this mounting area allows sufficient ventilation for the CanTrol module’s air vents and fans.

Caution: As mounting the CanTrol module will require drilling, it is absolutely necessary to make sure that no other vehicle components could be damaged in the process. Check both sides of the mounting surface before starting. If damage is likely, select a different mounting location.

3. Remove the module from its mounting area, and using a drill bit sized for a #10 sheet metal screw, drill a hole in each of the areas scribed in the previous step.

4. Return the module to its mounting location and using #10x3/4” sheet metal screws (provided), secure the module onto its mounting surface. Be sure to install a #10 internal tooth lock washer (included) onto each mounting screw before mounting the unit. IMPORTANT: The CanTrol module case must be either mounted on, or grounded to the vehicle chassis.

Control Head

The CanTrol™ control head features 18 push-buttons with active illumination, a 4-position slide switch (off, 1, 2 & 3) and a Traffic Advisor™ display that enables the operator to view a representation of the direction being displayed. There are two basic mounting brackets for the CanTrol™ control head. One allows the control head to be mounted into your vehicle’s console (if so equipped). The other allows the control head to be mounted directly onto the dash or other surface through the use of a bail strap mounting bracket. Regardless of the style selected, be sure to

observe the air bag warning on the cover of this manual.

Bail-strap mount

1. Position the bail strap in the selected mounting location. Using an awl or other suitable tool, scribe the surface where the mounting holes are to be drilled.

Caution: As mounting the control head will require drilling, it is absolutely necessary to make sure that no other vehicle components could be damaged in the process. Check both sides of the mounting surface before starting. If damage is likely, select a different mounting location.

2. Drill the mounting holes in the areas scribed in step 1. The size of the drill bit should be determined by the size of the mounting hardware (#10 sheet metal screw) and thickness of the mounting surface.

3. Using hardware provided (#10 x 3/4” sheet metal screw & #10 internal tooth lockwasher), secure the bail strap to the mounting location.

Note: There are 3 sets of holes on the bail strap for

positioning the control head at 3 different heights.

4. With the bail strap in place, insert the #10 x 3/8” hex head bolt into the assembly hole from the inner side of the bail strap. Place the #10 internal-tooth lock washer and the acorn nut on the protruding bolt on the outer side of the bail strap. Loosely secure the acorn nut to the hex head bolt.

Bail Strap Mount

Now slide the control head onto the bolt heads. Once it is in the position that the customer has chosen, and the control head has fully engaged the bolt heads, tighten the acorn nuts until the unit is firmly secured.

A third pair of mounting holes are provided that will enable the control head to be located much closer to the bail strap than the other pairs allow. If this closer location is used, the tips of the bail bracket may be broken off at the notches shown.

Havis Console Mount

The Havis console mounting kit includes all the necessary hardware needed to secure the control head to the mounting bracket for installation on a Havis console. The control head mounts onto the console mount bracket the same way the control head mounts onto the bail bracket as outlined previously except for the addition of a flat washer that must be inserted between the control head and the bracket. Please refer to the manual included with your console for specific information on securing the control head/mounting bracket assembly onto the console.

For installation into consoles by other manufacturers, a control head bracket designed for your console must be obtained from the console manufacturer.

Microphone

A 1/4” port is provided on the CanTrol module for installation of the microphone.

If the optional 20’ extension cord is used, install this cord as outlined above. Install the mic plug bracket (included with kit) in the desired area using #8 x 1/2” hardware (included). Route the cord to the plug bracket, install the cable end thru the bracket hole and fasten using the hex nut provided.

Wiring

WARNING! All customer supplied wires that connect 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 (see wire chart on page 9).

NOTE: Item numbers reference the illustration found on page 8.

IMPORTANT! Wires connecting to the amp/relay module have the proper terminals pre-installed. If the customer needs to re-terminate these wires for any reason, the proper tool MUST be used to insure proper crimping.

System Power (Item 9)

1. Locate the 4-position Molex™ connector (item 9).

2. Using appropriately sized wire, extend the two RED wires to the Positive (+) battery terminal. Fuse each wire independently @ 40 Amps. DO NOT install these fuses until the wiring for the entire system has been completed.

3. Using appropriately sized wire, extend the two BLACK wires from the CanTrol module to the vehicle’s chassis ground. This is typically adjacent to the battery.

4. Complete the connections and plug the connectors into the CanTrol module.

Ignition Sense (Item 13)

1. Locate the RED/WHT wire at J17-7.

2. Connect this wire to the vehicle ignition switch. This will allow the CanTrol system to be turned off with the ignition switch.

Outputs

CanTrol™ offers the following outlets:

16 LED outputs (2.5A Max. each)

3 Aux. outputs (250mA Max each)

Siren Speaker (Item 9)

1. Route the ORG and BRN wires from the CanTrol module to the siren speaker.

2. Connect ORG wire to the WHT speaker wire (speaker high).

3. Connect BRN wire to BLK speaker wire (speaker low).

NOTE: For dual speaker installation, connect the second speakers wires to the same destinations as the first speakers wires (see page 10).

Radio Rebroadcast (Item 13)

Two BLU wires (J17-8 & J17-16) are used to connect your two-way radio’s external speaker for radio rebroadcast. This is an optional connection and will not effect the other operations.

Note: Radio rebroadcast will NOT work with amplified remote speakers! If your remote speaker is amplified (i.e.: contains a power amp circuit in the speaker assembly), do not enable the radio rebroadcast feature.

1. Locate the two wires that connect the external speaker to the twoway radio, cut one of them and splice one of the BLU wires into this circuit.

2. Cut the remaining speaker wire and splice the remaining BLU wire into this circuit.

Backlighting (Item 13)

1. Route the BLK/WHT wire (J17-9) from the CanTrol module to the vehicle’s marker light circuit.

2. Splice this wire into this circuit to enable the control head backlighting to be active whenever the vehicle’s marker light is active.

Inputs

The CanTrol™ system inputs operate as follows:

Logic Inputs - These are programable inputs and their default configuration and activation polarity is as follows:

Logic Input 1 (J17-1) - Horn Ring Input (Ground Activated). Identical in operation to the Manual button when the Horn Transfer Relay has been activated.

Logic Input 2 (J17-2) - Park Sense 1 (Ground Activated). Terminates siren operations.

Logic Input 3 (J17-3) - Park Sense 2 (12.8V Activated). Terminates siren operations.

Inputs 2 & 3 should be connected to the vehicle’s transmission neutral safety switch signal wire. Always consult your vehicle’s technical

manual before altering your vehicle’s wiring or using this feature. Wiring modifications may compromise your vehicle’s safety and/or performance.

Logic Input 4 (J17-4) - Horn Ring Input (12.8V Activated).

Logic Input 5 (J17-9) - Backlight (12.8V Activated). Activates Control Head backlight.

Logic Input 6 (J17-10) - Sync Lightbar (12.8V Activated). Synchronizes lightbar pattern with vehicle lighting.

Logic Input 7 (J17-11) - Rear Light Cutout (12.8V Activated). Changes operation of Master Cutout button from Front Cutout to Rear Cutout.

Logic Input 8 (J17-12) - Hands Free Lighting. Enables Warning Light pattern changes during Hands Free Siren operation. When enabled, cycling to Yelp in Hands Free will cause all active vehicle lighting patterns to change to DoubleFlash 150. Cycling to Piercer will cause all active vehicle lighting patterns to change to SingleFlash 300. Cycling to Wail returns all active vehicle lighting patterns to their default pattern.

Analog Inputs - There are three (3) analog inputs (J17-5, J17-13 and J17-6). Their input voltage may range from 0 to 12VDC. By default, these inputs are disabled and can be enabled as needed.

The remaining inputs are designated to be used for Ignition Sense (J17-7) and Radio Repeat (J17-8 & J17-16).
