A. GENERAL.

The Cuda TriOptic Model 351011 is an LED light head

designed for use in conjunction with all Federal ignal switch

controllers. This light head is designed for mounting on a

vehicle’s interior, exterior, or on a motorcycle. The housing is

comprised of an extruded aluminum profile with a front high-

impact polycarbonate protective lens. The unit is supplied with

mounting hardware and a five-foot cable. This unit has an

operating temperature of -30°C to +65°C (-22°F to +149°F). It

may be mounted in the horizontal, or vertical, position with the

cabling exiting from either side or the rear. The physical

dimensions of this unit are 3.8-inches long by 1.5-inches wide

by 1.75-inches high. End caps and the front lens cover are

compression sealed to the extruded housing by means of Buna-

N gasketing. The unit also features stainless steel hex machine

screws and kepsnuts for the channels on the top, bottom and

rear of the housing. The Cuda TriOptic is programmed with

eight flash patterns selectable by a control lead. The light head

can also be user-configured to be controlled by an external

flashing device.

B. INSTALLATION.

WARNING

This product is intended for supplemental

warning and for use in conjunction with an

approved primary warning light system.

Consult local codes and regulations to deter-

mine if the power supply/ light head combina-

tion complies with the horizontal or vertical

mount positioning desired in your application.

WARNING

When installing e uipment inside air bag

e uipped vehicles, the installer MUST ensure

that the e uipment is installed ONLY in areas

recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.

Failure to observe this warning will reduce the

effectiveness of the air bag, damage the air bag,

or potentially damage or dislodge the e uip-

ment, causing serious injury or death to you or

C. ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS AND FEATURES.

NOTE

Powering multiple devices with a common control lead

may cause one or more units to briefly remain

functional after signal power is removed. For example,

due to the high input filter capacitance, a strobe

supply can briefly supply the current required to

operate a low current device such as a Cuda

TriOptic™. If necessary, use a relay to isolate devices

with large filter capacitors. ee figure 5 for the

schematic; all components/wires are user-supplied.

The unit is intended to operate on a 12.8 VDC system. It

includes a 3 conductor connecting cable housed in a black

jacket. The 3 conductors are: red (positive), black (negative)

and green (switching). This unit is intended to work in

conjunction with all Federal ignal switch controllers.

1. Standard Operation.

This unit features 8 flash patterns that are selected by

applying the switching wire (green) to the ground wire (black).

These wires are all within the black cable attached to the unit.

Install a 3-ampere fuse in the red wire. Connect the red wire to

a switched 12V source to activate the light. The flash patterns

are as follows:

1. teady On

2. 120 FPM

3. 165 FPM

4. 240 FPM

5. 300 FPM

6. Combo 1:

4 intervals @ 120 FPM

10 intervals @ 300 FPM

7. Combo 2:

2 intervals @ 120 FPM

3 intervals @ 165 FPM

6 intervals @ 240 FPM

3 intervals @ 165 FPM

2 intervals @ 120 FPM

10 intervals @ 300 FPM

8. Combo 3:

1 inactive interval @ 120 FPM

2 intervals @ 120 FPM

6 intervals @ 240 FPM

14 intervals @ 480 FPM

6 intervals @ 240 FPM

2 intervals @ 120 FPM

1 inactive interval @ 120 FPM

After the desired pattern has been selected, the green

wire must be connected directly to the red power lead.

This unit is designed to return to the last flash

pattern selected before it was de-energized. For example, if the

unit is de-energized at the seventh flash pattern and then re-

energized, the seventh flash pattern illuminates. However,

there is a two-second delay for the unit to remember the last

pattern. o, if the unit is energized and functioning on the

third flash pattern and the unit is switched to the fourth flash

pattern and de-energized within a two second time limit, the

unit will return to the third flash pattern.

2. External Flashing Device Operation.

The 351011 can be user-modified to operate with an

external flashing device, either ground side or high side

activated. If desired, proceed as follows:

a. Remove the light head’s end cap and slide out the

printed circuit board assembly. ee figure 4.

b. ee figure 4. Move JP1 and JP2 to the external

position.

c. Replace the circuit board assembly and end cap.

d. Ensure that the drain hole is facing down and

assemble the light head into the housing without bunching the

wire.

e. For a high side activated flasher, install a 3-

ampere fuse in the Cuda TriOptic red wire and connect to the

control lead on the flasher. Connect the black wire to ground.

Connect the green wire to the Cuda TriOptic red wire.

f. For a low side activated flasher, install a 3-

ampere fuse in the Cuda TriOptic red wire and connect to a

12V source. Connect the green wire to the red wire. Connect

the black wire to the control lead on the flasher.
