Spectra PA System & Whelen

[fchrist16]

Not sure if it should go here or over in the vehicle install area.

I have a Whelen SA315P that I need wired up to my PA System. Anyone have good visuals/instructions for wiring it it up?

It's a speaker... two wires. One wire to one side, one wire to the other...

So the black wire can be connected to either side and same with the white?

yes

Thanks again!

What precautions besides good earplugs should I take when installing it?

I wish there had been a good instruction manual out there....Anyone know of one?

Just make sure you don't place a ground on either side of the Spectra speaker wires. Doing so
will pop the audio output amp and let the smoke out.

When you say a ground you mean the power wiring ground wire?

Considering he's connecting a Moto siren box (HLN1185) to a Whelen siren speaker (SA315P), I doubt it'll be an issue...

tvsjr, et al.

Please see my other post that I just submitted for a complete (in my mind) post on how my system is setup and perhaps you guys can help me with whatever I'm doing wrong better...?

Alright so I got the HLN1185B working for about a minute today and then went back out!

Any ideas on what might be wrong?
