Installation Guide:
Control Point Module
for WeCan® Lightbars
Overview -
Note: If installing a WeCan lightbar into a system that includes
either a Whelen CenCom Sapphire or Whelen Cantrol, the
Control Point Module is no longer required. The lightbar can be
plugged directly into either of the previously mentioned units. In
that event, please refer to the applicable instructional material
for connection information.
The Control Point Module serves as the ‘brains’ of the Whelen
WC Series lightbar. The module is programmed with the
WeCan™ Programming Software via the USB port and in turn,
provides the necessary signals that allow the lightbar to function
in the desired manner.
As represented in the WeCan™ Programming software, each of
the 18 inputs may be programmed to activate any number or
combination of the installed lightbar components. This is
accomplished by applying +12VDC to an input. The default
configurations for specific lightbars are shown on page 2.
Important - The pattern override feature will override all active
LED lightheads with the pattern override flash pattern.
Programming Procedure IMPORTANT - It is not necessary to program this device
unless
changes to the default configuration (for example
pattern or switch control changes) are desired.
1. Connect a USB cable from the host PC to the module’s
USB port.
2. Start the WeCan software on the host PC and open the
configuration to be programmed.
3. Click on the “WeCan” button on the menu bar. Select
“Control Point” then “Program” from the fly-out.
4. A window will open to confirm that you are about to
program a Control Point Module. Confirm that the USB
cable is connected to both the module and the PC and
then press “OK” to continue. The software will display a
window when the programming procedure has been
successfully completed.
5. Confirm proper operation of the module.
