Inputs 1 To 4 - Federal Signal Corporation SmartSiren Platinum Series Software Manual

Exploring the Interface
The Button Control Module is not available for:
• the SignalMaster button because the button acts as a Push On/Off switch that controls the
default step-through warning patterns. The button controls only the "step-through" selection
of the Left, Right, Center Out directional patterns. A step-through button activates a flash
pattern, siren tone, or other function in a sequence each time you press it, starting with the first
function.
• the SignalMaster Warn button because the it functions as a Push On/Off switch that selects
one warn pattern or functions as a button that steps through the assignment of two or more
warn patterns.
• the slide switch because each switch position acts as a momentary button.

Inputs 1 to 4

You can assign to the Input buttons any of the devices and functions in the Device Selection Module.
Each input button corresponds to one of the four input connections on the back of the SmartSiren
Platinum Siren Amplifier. The connections are located below the pins for the discrete SignalMaster.
Input 1 and 2 are active-low inputs that activate a switch when pulled to ground. Input 3 and 4 are
active-high inputs that activate a switch when pulled to 12 Vdc battery voltage. The inputs are most
commonly used for switches that send a signal to the SmartSiren Platinum system when a condition in
the vehicle changes. Changes may include the opening of a trunk or door, a rise in vehicle temperature,
or the release of a gun lock.
