I. GENERAL.

The Cuda TriOptic Model 352022F is a LED light head

designed for use in conjunction with all Federal Signal

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 lens. The unit is supplied

with mounting hardware and a ﬁve-foot cable. This unit

has an operating temperature range of –30ºC to +65ºC

(-22°F to +149ºF). It may be mounted in the horizontal,

or vertical position with the cable exiting from the rear.

The physical dimensions of this unit are 7.9-inches long,

1.6-inches wide by 2.4-inches high. End caps and the front

lens cover are compression sealed to the extruded housing

by means of gaskets. The unit also features stainless steel

hex machine screws and keps nuts for the channels on the

top, bottom and rear of the housing. The Cuda TriOptic

is programmed with thirteen ﬂash patterns selectable by

a control lead without opening the device. The light head

can also be user conﬁgured to be controlled by an external

ﬂashing device.

II. INSTALLATION.

This product is intended for supplemental

warning and for use in conjunction with

an approved primary warning light sys-

tem. Consult local codes and regulations to

determine if the power supply/ light head

combination complies with the horizontal or

vertical mount position desired in your ap-

plication.

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

equipment, causing serious injury or death to

you or others.

A. Determine which side of the unit will be attached

to the mounting surface. From a horizontal orientation,

the top, bottom and rear surfaces of the unit are available

for mounting. The top and bottom surfaces each have one

mounting bolt channel and the rear surface has two (see

ﬁgure 1). Choose the mounting channel that best suits your

application.

B. See ﬁgure 1. Locate the opening in the selected

mounting bolt channel and drop in two #8-32 hex head

screws.

Before drilling in ANY part of the 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.

C. Drill two 3/16" hole as needed for the #8-32

mounting screws. It is recommended that the screws be 4-

6" apart.

D. Secure the unit to the mounting surface using the

supplied keps nuts.

Install the control unit in an adequately ventilated

area. Never install near heater ducts.

After prolonged operation, the unit dissipates heat

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.

III. 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 ex-

ample, due to high input ﬁlter capacitance, a strobe

supply can brieﬂy supply the current required

to operate a low current device such as a Cuda

TriOpticTM. If necessary, use a relay to isolate

devices with large ﬁlter capacitors. See ﬁgure 2 for

suggested schematic, all components and wires are

user-supplied.

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

It includes a jacketed 6 conductor cable. The 6 conductors

are red (positive), black (negative), green (programming),

yellow (processor reset), orange (external ﬂash, bank 1),

and white (external ﬂash, bank 2). This unit is intended

to work in conjunction with all Federal Signal switch

controllers.

A. Flashing Operation.

1. Cut and insulate the orange, yellow and white

wires. These are not used.

2. Connect the black wire to ground.

3. Using a user supplied 3A fuse connect the red

wire to a positive 12 VDC source.

4. The ﬂash patterns are selected by grounding

the programming wire (green). The ﬂash patterns are as

follows:

a. Steady On + 90 FPM

b. 120 FPM alternating

c. 165 FPM alternating

d. 240 FPM alternating

e 300 FPM alternating

f. Combo 1:

4 @ 120 FPM

10 @ 300 FPM

g. Combo 2:

2 @ 120 FPM

3 @ 165 FPM

6 @ 240 FPM

3 @ 165 FPM

2 @ 120 FPM

10 @ 300 FPM

h. Combo 3:

10 @ 300 FPM

k. Combo 5:

Steady On + multipattern, 2 @ 120 FPM

3 @ 165 FPM

6 @ 240 FPM

3 @ 165 FPM

2 @ 120 FPM

10 @ 300 FPM

l. Alternating quad ﬂash

m. “Blank” (off) pattern, to indicate the end.

After the desired pattern has been selected

connect the programming wire (green) directly to the

positive power wire (red).

The 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 pattern illuminates.

However, there is a two second delay for the unit to

remember the last ﬂash 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 two seconds, the unit will return to the third ﬂash

pattern when the unit is re-energized.

B. External Flashing Device Operation.

1. High side activated ﬂasher.

Use a user supplied 3A fuse and connect

the red and green wires to the output control lead on the

ﬂasher. Connect the black, yellow, orange and white wires

to ground.

2. Low side activated ﬂasher.

a. Dual ﬂashing unit.

Using a user supplied 3A fuse, connect the

red and green wires to a switched 12V source to eliminate

standby current. Connect the orange wire to one of the

output leads of the ﬂasher. Connect the white wire to the

other output lead of the ﬂasher. Connect the black and

yellow wires to ground.

b. Single ﬂashing unit.

Use a user supplied 3A fuse and connect

the red and green wires to a 12V source. Connect the white,

orange, black, and yellow wires to the output control lead

on the ﬂasher.

IV. MAINTENANCE.

A. General.

Crazing (cracking) of lenses will cause

reduced effectiveness of the light. Do not

use cleaning agents (which will cause craz-

ing) such as strong detergents, solvents, or

petroleum products. If crazing of lenses does

occur, reliability of light for emergency sig-

naling purposes may be reduced until lenses

are replaced.

Ordinary cleaning of the plastic lenses can be

accomplished by using mild soap and a soft rag. Should ﬁne

scratches or a haze appear on a lens, they can ordinarily

be removed with a non-abrasive, high-quality, one-step,

automotive paste cleaner/wax and a soft cloth.

B. Replacement Parts.

The unit must not be opened under any

circumstance, failure to adhere to this may result in

moisture entering into the unit causing premature failure.

Please contact the factory if the unit is not functioning

properly.
