HGDefinitionMob%26Port.jpg

When a radio comes factory-equipped with an O7 Control Head that has the optional Siren and Lights Keypad, the default Keypad button assignments are pre-configured to correspond with the Keypad's graphics. See the O7 Siren / Lights Keypad Keystone Concept.

For a Dual Radio configuration:

  • Button functions for Radio Wide features (Siren-related buttons, Aux Control (1-3), Dim, GunLock (1, 2, 3, or All), Relay Pattern, Radio Swap, and Third Party) must be configured the same for the Primary and Secondary radios; additionally, it is strongly recommended to configure all of the button functions the same for both radios, in order to avoid radio-user confusion.

  • When the Radio Selection field is set to "Secondary Radio" and the Siren Operation field is set to "Disabled", all Siren-related Keypad selections are considered valid. (Although the Siren box only connects to the Primary Radio, Siren / PA operation is independent of the current radio selection, and therefore the Siren / PA still operates when the Secondary Radio is selected.)
