This system offers a quick, simple and cost effective method of controlling hazard warning equipment on emergency services vehicles. Ideal for vehicles that only require a small amount of emergency equipment such General Purpose (GP) Police Cars, Covert Police Cars and Private Cars used by Officers when on duty.
Operated by simply translating the press of a button that in turn activates the associated output, where each small button is always linked to the same output for easy operational understanding. Each output can deliver up to 10 Amps, or be limited to 5 Amps, with the total current handling of each device being 24 Amps. The double width combo button not only acts as a ‘Hot Key’ by activating a number of small key functions at the same time, but also has a ‘Triple’ press action to control a mixture of functions required in special situations such as ‘999’, ‘ARRIVE’ and ‘RESET’.
The strength of this system is its ability to be programmed directly via a combination of key pad presses, that not only allows initial set-up to be rapidly achieved, but also quick implementation of any changes that may be required during the commissioning and sign-off process.
