2 Models Introduction The microprocessor based PROTEC light and siren control unit is designed for light to medium duty use in a wide range of emergency vehicles. The system can be configured to control a wide array of vehicle functions such as head light flash, as well as industry standard light-bar functions. The remote control head with an integrated microphone used on P1300-S provides a compact and functional interface to the master control unit. The master control can be programmed to control up to seven (7) independent light and/or siren functions. In addition a MASTER/EMERG button allows for single touch activation of specific function combinations. Standard Features: P1300-S Full feature Siren & Solid State Relays Light Controller P1350-S Solid State Relays Light Controller Only Remote Control Head - The PROTEC is equipped with a remote control head that allows for control of seven (7) individual light and/or sound functions. The MASTER/EMERG button may be programmed as a single touch activation of selected functions Built in Microphone - The PROTEC remote control head doubles as a microphone eliminating the need for a separate microphone, reducing console/dash clutter Back-light - The PROTEC remote control head is back lit to facilitate night operation. Siren - The PROTEC may be ordered with an optional built in siren Available Output Functions The PROTEC has a variety of outputs that are assigned to the touch-pad switches during the configuration of the product based on the clients requirements. These switches are assigned output ports, functions and the labels. The following represents a generic description of the most common output functions. Refer to the wiring diagram Figure 1 on page 6. NOTE: Three of the 8 available button on the Touchpad are factory set and can not be re-assigned, these are SW1 MASTER/EMERG, SW7 STBY/PA and SW8 the SIREN TONE. All other output buttons are unlabeled and can be user designated for their specific application. Head Light Flash - The PROTEC has a built in flasher which can be wired to the headlights to allow control of head light flashing. The user may program between 2 flash rates. The outputs usually associated with this are 10 & 11. Light-bar Functions - The PROTEC is equipped with output controls for additional standard light-bar functions such as: rotators, take-downs, alleys. Since these output require heavy current loads they are usually connected to outputs 1,2 & 3. Outputs 4 to 8 - The PROTEC has outputs allowing the remote control head to control +12V power to any connected devices, the user can assign these outputs and label them accordingly. Speakers - The PROTEC siren/pa is designed to drive a single speaker in the range of 8 to 11 Ohms. PART# : Sep.29th, 2014

5 Wiring Instructions PROTEC 1300-S is configured to a general setup, all solid outputs and unlabelled switches (except MASTER EMERGENCY, SIREN, STBY/PA). The wiring diagram sent with the unit is necessary. for a proper wiring installation. Also, it can be used the generic wiring and output diagram on the following page. The outputs are fixed in position and functionality however their activation and labeling is determined by the Protec 1300-S Set Up Template (also shipped with the unit). The generic wiring diagram shows the connections that are common to every installation and also indicates the outputs, their location and current rating capabilities. Please pay careful attention to the individual output current limits for each output and the maximum input current limit for the Protec unit. Do not exceed these limits or physical damage will occur. The Protec 1350-S is a light controller only and the wiring diagram for this is not shown. The major difference between the two models is that the P1350-S lacks the siren and PA functions, therefore the 8 pin connector to the right of the touchpad connector is not active. All the other connections and outputs will follow the generic P1300-S diagram on the next page. Protec Rear Panel Wiring Connection Points GND The ground terminal should be connected to the negative terminal of the battery or vehicle chassis using a black 8 gauge wire. When connecting the ground wire, ensure that it is physically secured to the chassis or battery terminal. Ensure the electrical connection is not obstructed by paint on the chassis. Never run two ground cables for one ground connection, thus creating a ground loop. 12V This is the main power connection and should be connected to the positive terminal of the battery using an 8 gauge wire. A fuse or circuit breaker should be installed on this wire in a location as close to the battery as possible. Outputs 1 to 3 (+12V outputs) These 3 outputs can be used to control light modules or other devices. Outputs 1&2 are controlled by the SW 2, and output 3 by SW1. High power loads can be connected to these outputs as they have a higher output current rating than the remaining outputs (see specifications). Outputs 4 to 8 (+12V outputs) These outputs are used for triggering and for loads that draw less than 8A. Outputs 4&5 are controlled by SW3, outputs 6&7 are controlled by SW4 and output 8 is controlled by SW6. P. KILL Park Kill input is +12VDC or GROUND activated, and used to immediately disable all siren tones when a vehicle is shifted into park. Connect the P. KILL pin to the vehicle transmission neutral safety switch signal wire, this wire should output a signal when the vehicle is shifted into park. Output 10 & 11 ( HLF +12V outputs) the outputs from these terminals can be used to alternate flash the headlights on a vehicle. The maximum load for these outputs is 8A each. The output are controlled by SW5 and is programmed according to table 1. PART# : Sep.29th, 2014

6 Figure 1 - Wiring Diagram IGN Ignition input should be connected to the vehicle ignition signal that outputs 12V only when the ignition is ON. NOTE: The following connection points are for the P1300 only, the P1350 does not have the SIREN/PA option (the 8 PIN connector is not active). HORN RING This is an input, it uses the horn activation signal to trigger the siren while the unit is in standby. HORN This is an output used to activate the regular vehicle horn during normal vehicle operation (no siren or air horn). PART# : Sep.29th, 2014

7 Speakers The PROTEC 1300-S unit with built in siren functions may be wired to one or two 100VA/11Ohm speakers. Refer to the label on the device to determine the connections, then proceed as follows: 1. Install and wire the speaker as per manufacturers instructions 2. Run the connecting wires from speaker mounting location to the master control unit. 3. Connect the wire leads to the PROTEC via the eight (8) connector plug provided Volume Set Controls On the backside of the siren unit there is a variable resistor labeled: MIC, this is used to adjust the volume of the microphone. To adjust the volume, use a precision screw driver to rotate the plastic screwhead for the variable resistor. Clock-wise will increase volume and counter-clock-wise will decrease volume. Connecting a Light-bar or other device The PROTEC master control unit may be programmed to control standard light-bar functions. Follow manufacture instructions to install the light-bar. To activate light-bar functions wire as follows: 1. Route the power harness from the light-bar installation point to the PROTEC master control unit 2. Refer to the manufactures wiring diagram connect the appropriate trigger wires from the harness to the matching connector plug position on the PROTEC master control unit. Note: Light-bar functions are typically connected to outputs 1 to 8 the three (3) direct wire connections and (5) pin connector. Connect power and ground to the light-bar as per manufactures instructions.
