GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SC-411HS Remote Light Control/Siren is a premium unit designed for one or two 100W speaker use. The
primary operating modes are Radio, Cycler, Standby, Yelp, Wail, and Phaser. A Noise Canceling PA Override
and push-button Horn Override are available in all modes except Radio. A push-button is provided for toggling
between Wail, Yelp, and Phaser tones, and Manual siren control in silent modes. The Phaser tone can be
optionally replaced by Two-Tone or disabled entirely. Auxiliary inputs are provided for connection to horn ring
circuit or switch. A latching siren cutout input is provided for connection to a door switch, etc. to stop siren tones
when exiting the vehicle. PA volume is programmable on the handheld controller while Radio volume control is
on the amplifier. The front panel is backlit with LED's for night visibility, dimmable with a front panel button and/
or connection to dash lights. The siren circuits utilize short circuit, high voltage, and reverse polarity protection
for maximum service life. An indicator light on face is provided for siren output diagnostics.
The SC-411HS also provides 3 primary buttons (equivalent to lever switch operation) with LED indicators for
primary lighting system control of up to 50 amps total and automatic siren tone in last position. Six programma-
ble lighted push buttons with replaceable legends provide auxiliary lighting or other device control up to 10
amps per switch. Each output is fused and monitored with visual and audible indicators for diagnostics. An
alert periodically sounds (may be disabled) when outputs are on to help prevent leaving lights on unintention-
ally. A video camera trigger output is activated with the primary buttons or programmed auxiliary buttons. Two
buttons are dedicated to arrow stick control (left, right, center) with function indication and specific control out-
puts.
All optional settings are programmed from the handheld controller face. These settings are synchronized be-
tween the handheld controller and amplifier using our QuickClone® duplication technology, a quick-copy feature
for simple transfer of option setting among multiple handheld controllers and amplifiers for efficient fleet installa-
tions.
