A. GENERAL.

The Cuda TriOptic Models 352012 and 352022 are LED

light heads designed for use in conjunction with all ederal

Signal switch controllers. These light heads are 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° to +149°). It may be mounted in the horizontal or

vertical position with the cabling exiting from either side or

the rear. The physical dimensions of the 352012 are 4.2-inches

long by 1.6-inches deep by 2.4-inches high. The 352022 is 7.9-

inches long by 1.6-inches deep by 2.4-inches high. End caps

and the front lens cover are compression sealed to the ex-

truded 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 operate with an external flashing device.

The 352012-02E and 352012-04E have been configured, at the

factory, for external flasher control..

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 equipment inside air bag

equipped vehicles, the installer MUST ensure

that the equipment 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 equip-

ment, causing serious injury or death to you or

others.

NOTE

or adequate condensate drainage, a horizontally

mounted unit MUST be mounted with the two drain

holes facing down (see figure 1). or vertical mount-

ing, the drain holes are located conveniently on either

end of the housing such that the cabling may be

routed from top or bottom.

Determine which side of the unit will be attached to the

mounting surface and which direction the power cable enters

the unit.

See figure 2. The unit is supplied with the power cable

entering the left rear position. To change the cable entry to the

left end, remove the left end cap and gasket. Remove the

rubber plug from the hole in the cap and route the cable and

grommet through both the gasket and the end cap. Position the

grommet properly around the cable and in the end cap. Place

the rubber plug that was removed from the end cap into the

rear of the housing to seal the hole where the cable used to

enter the unit. Slide the #8-32 x 1/2 hex head screws into the

desired channel and replace the gasket and end cap. Ensure

the flat head screws are properly tightened for a good seal.

To change the cable entry to the right end or rear, remove

the end caps and the 6-32 x 1/2" screw(s) and lockwashers(s)

from the rear of the unit. Slide the circuit board assembly from

the housing and back into the opposite end of the housing.

Remove the appropriate rubber plug and route the cable and

grommet accordingly. Place the rubber plug that was removed

into the remaining hole. Install the 6-32 x 1/2" screw(s) and

lockwashers(s) into the back of the unit and secure. Slide the

#8-32 x 1/2 hex head screws into the desired channel. Install

the gaskets and end caps and tighten the flat head screws

securely.

CAUTION

Before drilling holes in ANY part of vehicle, be sure

that both sides of the mounting surface are clear of

parts that could be damaged; such as brake lines, fuel

lines, electrical wiring or other vital parts.

A 3/16" diameter mounting hole is recommended for the

two #8 x 1/2" mounting hardware screws. In addition, two #8

keps nuts are also provided for securing the assembly to the

mounting surface.

CAUTION

Install the light head in an adequately ventilated

area. Never install near heater ducts.

CAUTION

After prolonged operation, the unit gets hot and can

cause burns. Do not hold the unit in your hands for

extended periods of time. Do not touch the unit

during, or shortly after, operation. Always allow the

unit to cool before handling.

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. or 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. See figure 3 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 ederal Signal switch controllers.

1. Standard Operation.

The single head unit (Model 352012) 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. The flash patterns are as

follows:

a. Steady On

b. 120 PM

c. 165 PM

d. 240 PM

e. 300 PM

f. Combo 1:

4 intervals @ 120 PM

10 intervals @ 300 PM

g. Combo 2:

l. Alternating quad flash.

m. “BLANK” (off) pattern: to indicate the end.

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. or 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. So, 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 352022 and 352012 can be user modified to

operate with an external flashing device. It can be either

ground side, or high side, activated.

a. Remove the end cap and printed circuit board

assembly as shown in figure 2.

b. Move JP1, JP2, and JP3 (Model 352022 only) to

the external position (see figure 4).

c. Replace the printed circuit board assembly and

end cap.

d. Ensure that the drain hole is facing down and

reassemble the light head into the housing without bunching

the wire.

e. or 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. or 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.
