XTL5000 O3 Siren

Post by KDN »

I have an XTL5000 currently with a W4 Control Head soon to be an O3 head, is the Motorola Siren capable of interfacing with an O3 head and if so what cables do I need to purchase to interface the DEK with the O3?

Thanks!

As long as your siren box is an HLN1439, you can use the HKN6145 siren cable which has a dek cable connected directly to the siren box. Again, this cable only functions with the HLN1439, and not the HLN1185. Also, be aware that some people have had issues getting the horn ring function to work on the VIPII connector with this setup.
