ECCO’S 7900 Series - Pulse® LED Beacon provide dependable, cost
effective LED warning solutions that meet SAE Class I requirements. Pulse®
Beacons feature 12-24V multiple ash patterns and hi/lo intensity control.
Each model offers a long, maintenance free service life, extremely low amp
draw and a robust, vibration resistant design.
1. Proper installation combined with operator training in the use, care, and maintenance of emergency warning devices are essential to ensure
the safety of you and those you are seeking to protect.
2. Exercise caution when working with live electrical connections.
3. This product must be properly grounded. Inadequate grounding and/or shorting of electrical connections can cause high current arcing,
which can cause personal injury and/or severe vehicle damage, including re.
4. Proper placement and installation are vital to the performance of this warning device. Install this product so that output performance of the
system is maximized and the controls are placed within convenient reach of the operator so that s/he can operate the system without losing
eye contact with the roadway.
5. Do not install this product or route any wires in the deployment area of an air bag. Equipment mounted or located in an air bag deployment
area may reduce the effectiveness of the air bag or become a projectile that could cause serious personal injury or death. Refer to the
vehicle owner’s manual for the air bag deployment area. It is the responsibility of the user/operator to determine a suitable mounting location
ensuring the safety of all passengers inside the vehicle particularly avoiding areas of potential head impact.
6. It is the responsibility of the vehicle operator to ensure during use that all features of this product work correctly. In use, the vehicle operator
should ensure the projection of the warning signal is not blocked by vehicle components (i.e., open trunks or compartment doors), people,
vehicles or other obstructions.
7. The use of this or any other warning device does not ensure all drivers can or will observe or react to a warning signal. Never take the right-
of-way for granted. It is your responsibility to be sure you can proceed safely before entering an intersection, driving against trafc, respond-
ing at a high rate of speed, or walking on or around trafc lanes.
8. This equipment is intended for use by authorized personnel only. The user is responsible for understanding and obeying all laws regarding
warning signal devices. Therefore, the user should check all applicable city, state, and federal laws and regulations. The manufacturer as-
sumes no liability for any loss resulting from the use of this warning device.
Do not install and/or operate this safety product unless you have read and understand the safety information
contained
Failure to install or use this product according to manufacturers recommendations may result in property damage, serious injury, and/or death to
those you are seeking to protect!
Important! This unit is a safety device and it must be connected to its own separate, fused
power point to assure its continued operation should any other electrical accessory fail.
Caution: When drilling into any vehicle surface, make sure the area is free from any electrical
wires, fuel lines, vehicle upholstery, etc. that could be damaged
Installation & Mounting:
Carefully remove the beacon and place it on a at surface. Examine the unit for transit damage, and
locate all parts. If damage is found, or parts are missing, contact the transit company or ECCO. Do
not use damaged or broken parts.
Temporary Mounting, Vacuum-Magnet Mount:
The Vacuum-Magnet Mount feature includes a suction
cup on the bottom of the beacon, with a magnet inside
of the suction cup, for a secure, temporary mount. The
beacon should be placed in the center of the roof where
the least amount of curvature occurs. Before installing,
make sure the mounting surface is clean and there is
no debris on the bottom of the beacon or on the roof
of the vehicle, which could reduce the holding power
of the suction cup and magnet. Place and remove the
beacon without sliding to avoid scratching the paint on
the vehicle. After placement, the beacon should adhere
rmly to the surface. If the unit slides or moves easily, a
proper installation has not been obtained. To release the
vacuum, lift the tab to release the airlock (see Figure 2).
To protect the Vacuum-Magnet Mount assembly, return
beacon to the box when not in use. Do not attempt to
attach the beacon to an ice-covered surface.
!
WARNING!
Important! This light and associated power wiring should be located at least 3 feet away from any
radio transmitting antenna. NOTE: The required separation distance can vary for some high
power transmitters/antennas. The maximum rated eld strength is 60v/m.
Permanent Mounting:
1. Select the desired location on a at surface for the
beacon to be mounted. The visibility of the ash and
ease of wiring access should be taken into
consideration in the selection of the mounting location.
2. Using the base gasket as a template, mark the three
mounting hole locations (see Figure 1).
3. Drill the holes using a 7/32” drill size.
4. A fourth hole may be drilled for wire access as shown in
Figure 1, or the wires may be routed through the slot in
the base for external access.
5. Connect the power wires as shown in the wiring section
(see Figure 3).
6. Mount the beacon with #10 hardware.
The 7900 series base comes with 1” NPT threads for pipe mounting.
Pipe Mounting:
WARNING!
Maximum recommended vehicle speed for safe operation using
the Vacuum Mount model is 65 mph (104 km/h), when tted to
the center of a vehicle roof of steel construction. Higher speeds
could cause the mount to fail, resulting in the beacon ying off
of the vehicle, which could cause damage to other vehicles, and
injury or death to the passengers. The vacuum-magnet mount
is not intended as a permanent mounting for the beacon. The
vacuum-magnet mount unit must be mounted on a at smooth
magnetic surface (i.e. no berglass, ribbed style roofs, etc.).
Insure that the magnet is kept clean.
!
WARNING!
Failure to follow these instructions can result in re or injury from excessive heat build up.
Operator is responsible for ensuring cigarette adapter ts correctly into cigarette/auxiliary outlet used.
For proper operation, verify cigarette/auxiliary outlet circuit is rated to supply a minimum of 10 amps. (See specications section for rated current in amperes).
Do not exceed the current rating for the cigarette lighter power outlet recommended by vehicle manufacturer.
Keep cigarette lighter adapter and outlet clean and free of debris.
Do not use the cigarette lighter adapter when wet.
Insert cigarette lighter adapter fully into the outlet for proper connection.
Grasp cigarette lighter adapter, NOT cord, to remove from outlet.
Remove cigarette lighter adapter completely from outlet when light is not in use.

Important! Disable power before wiring up the beacon.
Wiring:
The wiring for this conguration is as
shown in Figure 3 below. All wiring should
be a minimum of 18AWG. The positive
line must have a 5 amp fuse, as shown.
A switch may be used to control the on/
off function.

Light Output & Flash Mode Selection:
All beacons are shipped from the factory set for high
intensity and double ash. To change these settings,
momentarily apply power to yellow wire while unit
is running to advance the ash pattern. To dim the
unit for night mode, apply power to the orange day/
nite wire.
