LIMITED WARRANTY The Signal Division, Federal Signal Corporation (Federal), warrants each new product to be free from defects in material and workmanship, under normal use and service, for a period of two years on parts replacement and one year on labor from the date of delivery to the first user-purchaser.
IMPORTANT WIRING INFORMATION WARNING The Federal SmartSiren® is an advanced microprocessor based siren system. Unlike conventional siren systems, malfunctions and/or improper operation WILL result if proper installation procedures are not followed. Refer to the accompanying diagram and pay special attention to the "CHECK LIST" at the bottom of this page. To complete the electrical installation, refer to paragraph 3-6.
SECTION I GENERAL DESCRIPTION This system provides the automatic, simultaneous light and siren activation required by some laws. Momentary, push-on/push-off, or timed relay operation can be selected. A security shotgun timer is also provided to minimize the possibility of unauthorized shotgun release. The SS2000SM’s technology allows variation of these features during programming. The Control Head can be customized with an assortment of replaceable function labels (supplied) to identify the switches.
SECTION II SPECIFICATIONS A. GENERAL. Input Voltage ..................................................... 11VDC to 15VDC. Polarity ............................................................ Negative ground only. Operating Temperature Range ......................... -30°C to +65°C. Standby Current ................................................ Less than .5 ampere Dimensions: Amplifier/SignalMaster Control/Relay Unit Height ................................................. 3-1/8" Width ................
SECTION III INSTALLATION SAFETY MESSAGE TO INSTALLERS OF ELECTRONIC SIRENS • Sound output will be severely reduced if any objects are in front of the speaker. If maximum sound output is required for your application, you should ensure that the front of the speaker is clear of any obstructions. • Install the speaker(s) as far forward on the vehicle as possible, in a location which provides maximum signaling effectiveness and minimizes the sound reaching the vehicle’s occupants.
CAUTION WARNING The SS2000SM Amplifier Unit housing is NOT waterproof. It must be mounted in a location which is sheltered from falling rain, snow, standing water, etc. Also, it must be installed in an adequately ventilated area. Never install near heater ducts. When installing equipment inside air bag equipped vehicles, the installer MUST ensure that the equipment is installed ONLY in areas recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.
A. Use the mounting bracket as a template and scribe two drill positioning marks at the selected mounting location. CAUTION Unreliable switch activation and loss of “tactile feedback” will result if the control head mounting method allows movement. DO NOT mount the control head on padded surfaces.

Splice the white/ yellow power cable wire to the horn ring side of the wire that was cut in step a. Insulate the splice with the wire nuts (supplied). It is the installer’s responsibility to determine an appropriate location in the vehicle circuitry to connect the pursuit wire.

b. To protect the wires, use the inline fuseholder and 20-ampere fuse. The fuseholder and fuse should be installed in the red (+) lead as close as practical to the power source. c. Route the black (-) power cable lead through the previously drilled hole into the engine compartment, and through existing clamps and holders toward the fusible link on the front fender. DO NOT make any connections to the battery until all other wiring is complete. B. Light Bar and Auxiliary Light Connections.

Use an ohmmeter to verify that a short circuit does NOT exist between the positive (+) and negative (-) power cable leads. Also, there must be NO short circuits between the positive (+) wires and the vehicle chassis. 2.

SECTION VI SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE • SAFETY MESSAGE TO PERSONNEL SERVICING FEDERAL SIGNAL ELECTRONIC SIRENS WARNING The lives of people depend on your proper servicing of Federal products. It is important to read and follow all instructions shipped with the products. In addition, listed below are some other safety instructions and precautions you should follow: • Read and understand all instructions in this manual before servicing the electronic siren or speaker.
5. Reassemble the control head as described in paragraph 6-2. KEYBOARD ASSEMBLY S R A L D E E F ar A. 2 1 F F O BEZEL (TOP) General. Any competent TV repairman or electronic technician should have little difficulty in tracing a malfunction, should any occur. For emergency replacement of any of the small components, care must be used when soldering. Heat easily damages transistors, capacitors and circuit boards.
2. To remove the SMC (SignalMaster Controller) board, proceed as follows: a. described above. NOTE Failure of the control head fuse is usually the result of a shorted control head cable, or the control head cable was damaged during installation. Ensure that the cause of F1’s failure is located and repaired before reapplying power to the unit. Remove the relay board as b. Unplug all connectors and plug-in type terminals from the printed circuit board. c.
