Emergency Lights & Manual Activation
There are four (4) wires (leads) coming from the sensor harness. Each wire
will activate the recorder when voltage is applied to any single wire. In a
typical patrol car installation, 2 of these wires will be used.
These wires will detect when voltage is present and activate the
recorder.
Sensor 'IN' Wire 1
1
Connect Sensor Wire 1 to the output side of your control box for your
pursuit lights.
You can connect it to any of the lights that are used for emergency
traffic. This way the recorder will start anytime you are running
emergency traffic. Depending on the type of switch box used, there
may be a place to connect at the back of the switch box. If not, simply
connect to any wire that goes to a 12v light that is activated when you
turn on the emergency/pursuit lights.
Sensor 'IN' Wire 2
2
Connect Sensor Wire 2 to a manual switch that you will activate when
you want to start the recorder without lights activated.
You can use any switch of your choosing that will provide 12v to the
wire.
Many control boxes in use today will have a blank switch that is not
being used. These are a great choice for the manual switch. If none are
available, a simple toggle or rocker switch mounted in a convenient
location works well.
