WhelenMPCO Siren Control Buttons
The “Siren” button to the right of the “Yelp” button in figure 5-3 covers four siren
functions. The current siren mode is displayed on the left-hand side of the screen in the
“siren” window. The next selectable siren mode will be displayed on the button itself, so
the button will change titles when the user touches it. Pressing the “Siren” button turns
the selected siren on. The siren can also be operated in four different modes. Below are
the four siren modes.
Manual mode – This mode is the normal manual mode. Pressing the
siren button will turn on the siren until it is released.
Radio mode – This mode plays the digital radio over the siren
loudspeaker.
HF mode – This is the hands free mode. The siren can be activated using
the horn on the steering wheel.
PA mode – This allows the user to talk over the siren loudspeaker. The
“air horn” type siren can be activated using the horn on the steering wheel.
The “Air Horn” button is a manual button that sounds the vehicle’s air horn when
depressed until the button is let go. The “Manual Siren” is also another manual button
that sounds a siren when depressed until it is let go.
WhelenMPCO Status Lights
The status lights on the left-hand side of the screen are an important part in
verifying that the system is working properly. The status lights for each type of light bar
are all slightly different from each other.
