Page 2: Introduction
Electronic Air Horn. All features can be quickly configured by setting the easy to access DIP switches. The Banshee Siren is designed to be used as a secondary acoustical warning device. It is not certified to meet SAE J1849 or California Title 13. -
Page 3: Low Frequency Configuration
Low Frequency input is activated, the Banshee can generate one of three Low Frequency tones. The Low Frequency input can be activated with a momentary switch and the Banshee will generate the Low Frequency tone for 7.5 to 60 seconds based on the Time-Out configuration settings (see Low Frequency Time-Out). -
Page 4: Dual Tone Configuration
Banshee Dual Tone operation. Z3 Dual Tone Operation - The Banshee can be connected with a CAT5 Cable to the AMP-2 port on the Z3 or to any port on the Z3 HUB. The Dual Tone input does not need to be connected when the Banshee is used with a Z3. The Dual Tone feature will operate automatically when one of the three siren tone buttons on the Z3 Control Head are active (WAIL, YELP, ALT TONE) and the Z3 is generating a tone. -
Page 5: Z3 Dual Tone Operation (Alt Tone)
Electronic Air Horn Configuration The Electronic Air Horn can be used with a primary siren or as an independent Electronic Air Horn. The Banshee does not require a signal from a primary siren to activate the Electronic Air Horn feature. The Banshee will generate the configured tone as long as the Air Horn input is activated. -
Page 6: Input Polarity Configuration
Z3 AIR HORN Operation - To enable the AIR HORN feature, move the appropriate DIP switch to the ‘Up’ position (see Figure 9, Position 7). If this feature is enabled, the Banshee will generate the Electronic Air Horn tone when the AIR HORN button on the Z3 Control Head is pressed. -
Page 7: Unpacking & Pre-Installation
Figure 10 The Banshee may be mounted in the trunk or a console near the primary siren. There are four mounting slots on the Banshee (mounting hardware not included). All connections are made on one side of the siren (see Figure 10). Mount the siren to allow for easy access to this side. All connections are made to the quick disconnect harnesses. -
Page 8: Power Harness Connections
Power Harness Connections The Banshee is designed so that the main Power Harness can be connected to the vehicle battery at all times. The siren will enter into a low current standby mode when none of the inputs are activated. Connect the BLACK ground wire to the negative terminal of the battery. Use the appropriate wire gauge rated at 125% of the current required to operate the Banshee (see Specifications for current draw). -
