ensure that the input voltage is the same as the voltage rating of
the light. Ensure that correct polarity is observed. Also ensure
that the unit is properly fused with a 1.0-amp fuse.

To wire the beacon:
1. Determine the required length of wires needed. The beacon
is supplied with 12-inch pre-terminated wires, which may be
butt spliced to longer wires if needed. There are also two
loose terminals supplied, which may be crimped to installer-
supplied wires of longer length. For lengths up to 15 feet (5
m), use minimum 18 AWG (1 mm
feet, use minimum 16 AWG (1.5 mm
2. If using installer-supplied wire for the entire length,
terminate the wires with the supplied metal terminals.
3. Assemble either the supplied 12-inch wires or the installer-
supplied wires into the connector shell. Refer to Figure 3.
Insert the red wire into the location on the connector shell
marked with a "1." The terminal will click into place. Repeat
for the black wire into the location marked "2."
