Activating Sirens Using Commander Software

Commander Software allows you to activate your sirens. After you activate your siren
system, Commander Software performs a Poll and logs the results. A Poll will poll each
siren site for status.
NOTE: The operator must always be aware that site conditions shown on any
Commander System screen, including the map, are not in real time, but represent
conditions at the time of the last polling. Large systems may take several minutes to
complete a polling sequence.
Commander Software allows single point and click activation and polling.
See the Commander Software Reference Manual, located within the Commander
Software, for further software operation details.

vehicle.

1. Connect the Automotive Accessory Power Cable to the plug located on the back
of the MAC Radio Case and the other side to an Automotive Accessory Power
receptacle in vehicle.
