PROGRAMMABLE CONTROL FOR SIREN AND LIGHTS
First Claim
1. A system for controlling the use of an emergency warning light and a speaker on a vehicle with a power supply, said system comprising:
- an amplifier module having an amplifier module processor for controlling the amplifier module to selectively energize the emergency warning light and to selectively energize the speaker, said amplifier module processor having a communications port;
a light module having a light module processor for controlling the amplifier module and the emergency warning light, said light module processor having a communications port;
a communications link connecting the amplifier module communications port to the light module communications port; and
a control head connected to the amplifier module processor for controlling the amplifier module and for controlling the light module processor via the amplifier module processor and via the communications link.

Abstract
A system comprising a power supply, an emergency warning light and a speaker, in combination with a control head. One or more processors controls operation of the system in response to received user input and provides system status for display. Storage media encoded with emergency warning light system instructions for execution by one or more of the processors controls the actuation of the emergency warning light system and controls light patterns generated by the emergency warning light system. The storage media is further encoded with siren system instructions for execution by one or more of the processors for controlling the actuation of the siren system and for controlling audible sounds generated by the siren system.
