Description | FEATURESPathfinder is a compact, programmable siren and light controller available with self-contained controls, remote surface-mount control heads, or handheld control head. Pathfinder is packed with features such as dual-tone and integrated Rumbler traffic clearing capability along with optional Federal Signal Vehicle Integration/On-Board Diagnostics (OBDII) integration. Pathfinder is easy to install and incorporates Convergence Network Configuration Software to provide a high-level of customizable control capability. Convergence Network Configuration Software is available as a download from the Federal Signal website making it easy to program one vehicle – or an entire fleet – from your laptop. Controller Features Pathfinder provides the user with customized control of the siren, warning lights, directional lights, and other accessories. Pathfinder can control the SignalMaster™ directional functions in light bars, ILS systems, and “stick” lights that are compatible with FS Convergence Network as well as Latitude™ 3-wire SignalMaster. For convenient visual reference, the Pathfinder emulates the selected pattern of the SignalMaster operation. All controller options feature programmable push-buttons that can be programmed for press-on, press-off, momentary, and multiple different blinking styles. The button brightness can be dimmed or turned-off for stealth operation. Over (100) labeling stickers, such as alley, gun lock, and wail allow for further customization of the control head. Button color can be programmed through the Convergence Network Configuration Software. The self-contained and remote models can be programmed in dual-color (Red/Blue) while the Handheld, 17-button, 6-button, and 4-button can be programmed in nine different colors - Red, Blue, Green, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, White, Purple, and Amber. Self-contained controls and Remote surface mount controller The control faceplate includes a four-position progressive slide switch, seven-position rotary switch and (9) backlit pushbuttons. The noise-canceling microphone that is included with the remote-control head uses a RJ11 connector to plug directly into the control head, eliminating the need to run a mic cable back to the amplifier. For increased versatility the amplifier offers a ." jack microphone plug option (." jack microphone and remote extension kit sold separately).
Handheld controller The handheld controller features (14) backlit push-buttons, and the ergonomic design provides convenient volume control and push-to-talk button on the side of the controller. It also has a magnetic mount and includes brackets for fixed or swivel mounting. The microphone is included in the control head, eliminating the need to run a mic cable back to the amplifier. For increased versatility, the amplifier offers a ." jack microphone plug option. (." jack microphone and remote extension kit sold separately). 17-Button Controller The 17-Button controller features a four-position progressive slide switch and (17) backlit push-buttons. For visual reference, the control head emulates the selected pattern of the SignalMaster operation. The included noise-canceling microphone uses a RJ11 connector to plug directly into the control head, eliminating the need to run a mic cable back to the amplifier. For increased versatility, the amplifier offers a ." jack microphone plug option (1/4" microphone and remote extension kit sold separately). 4-Button Controller The 4-Button controller faceplate includes (4) backlit push-buttons. For visual reference, the control head emulates the selected pattern of the SignalMaster operation. The noise-canceling microphone that is included with the PF200S4 uses a 1/4-in jack plug that plugs directly into the amplifier. A remote extension kit is included. 6-Button Controller The 6-Button controller faceplate includes (6) backlit push-buttons and a four-position progressive slide switch. For visual reference, the control head emulates the selected pattern of the SignalMaster operation. The noise-canceling microphone that is included with the PF200S6 uses a ." jack plug that plugs directly into the amplifier. A remote extension kit is included. Amplifier Features Pathfinder default siren tones include Wail, Yelp, Priority, Manual/Peak-and-Hold, Hi-Lo, Powercall, and Air Horn. A library of other selectable siren tones are available including Unitrol™ branded siren tones such as Wail, Yelp, Futura, Hi-Lo, Ultra Hi-Lo, Alarm, Air Horn, and Hetro. PA, radio rebroadcast, and Air Horn is standard in the Pathfinder. Pathfinder also includes (2) serial ports to be used with the FS Convergence Network devices such as light bars or directional warning lights for easy “plug-n-play” installation. Other amplifier features include horn ring transfer (TAPII, Timer or Hands-Free), Park, Ignition, and (4) general-purpose inputs for trunk/door release, gun lock, intrusion alarms and monitoring K9 temperature systems. The polarity of each input is programmable except for ignition. Timer Feature Integrated Rumbler® Capability
Steady Burn Models Are available as steady burn models for use with the Pathfinder™ Siren. The combination of exterior lights Steady Burn models and the Pathfinder Siren allow the Pathfinder to control lights around the vehicle by utilizing flash patterns in the siren, syncing/alternating light heads, and dimming light heads. FS Vehicle Integration/On-Board Diagnostics Integration (OBDII) The FS Vehicle Integration is a simple plug-in connection using the existing vehicle CAN bus system. The FS Vehicle Integration uses a vehicle-specific cable (sold separately) to seamlessly integrate with the vehicle allowing light and siren control with vehicle events such as door open, headlight, brake, speed, park, etc. The use of the FS Vehicle Integration removes the need to separately wire certain options such as horn ring transfer or ignition. Programming Software Features Pathfinder gives the user the ability to clone an entire fleet of siren functions. The user simply connects the Pathfinder to a PC and downloads the functions of the programmed software onto a USB drive to download functions to each siren. Rear Expansion Module The EXPMOD-2 Rear Expansion Module works with any Pathfinder Siren to provide an additional (16) 7.5 Amp flashing outputs and (2) 20 Amp control outputs. The Rear Expansion Module makes installation faster and easier by giving you full control of OEM brake, tail, turn, reverse and third brake light lighting without the use of additional flashers. (9) blackout relays are also included that allow trained officers to have the ability to cut off all rear lighting to avoid detection. The Rear Expansion Module includes (3) serial ports to be used with the FS Convergence Network devices such as light bars or directional warning lights for easy “plug-n-play” installation. The Rear Expansion Module is controlled by a Pathfinder siren that can be programmed through the Convergence Network Configuration Software to provide a high-level of distributed and customizable control capability. Up to two Rear Expansion Modules can be used with a Pathfinder Siren providing a total of (32) 7.5 Amp flashing outputs and (4) 20 Amp control outputs. Vehicle specific rear taillight connection wire harnesses are available for the Dodge Charger Pursuit, Chevrolet Tahoe, Dodge Durango and Ford Police Interceptor Utility. 24-Channel Expansion Module The EXPMOD24 24-Channel Expansion Module works with any Pathfinder Siren to provide an additional 24 flashing outputs to a Pathfinder System. The 24-Channel Expansion Module is controlled by a Pathfinder siren that can be programmed through the Convergence Network Configuration Software to provide a high-level of distributed and customizable control capability. The maximum output current for each relay can also be set with the Convergence Network Configuration Software. The 24-Channel Expansion Module is potted to help protect it from unfavorable weather conditions making it ideal for under the hood mounting. Up to four 24-Channel Expansion Modules can be used with a Pathfinder siren. Power Distribution Module The PFPDM-1 Power Distribution Module provides electrical power from one main power source. The Power Distribution Module makes installation faster and easier and increases reliability due to having fewer failure points. In the case of a product losing power, the Power Distribution Module features diagnostic LEDs that will allow the failure point to be quickly located. The Power Distribution Module includes (4) serial ports to be used with the FS Convergence Network devices, such as light bars or directional warning lights, for easy “plug-n-play” installation. The Power Distribution Module also includes (4) programmable outputs that can be programmed through the Convergence Network Software to provide a high-level of distributed and customizable control capability. |
