Wiring to the searchlight The RCL-300A searchlight is supplied with a 15-foot integral wire harness. If you must lengthen the wire harness, use heavy duty wire to minimize the voltage drop. This is especially important for the WHITE 12 AWG lamp power, BLACK 12 AWG lamp ground, ORANGE power wire and BLUE ground wires. Following the wiring scheme above and Appendix C. use the supplied butt connectors to connect the Master Controller to the searchlight. Wiring the Point Pad™ The RG-5

The URC-300 Master Controller has a searchlight motor time-out feature. If a Point Pad™ rotation switch (right or left) is continually engaged for more than 50 seconds, the Master Controller will interrupt the operation until the Point Pad switch is disengaged. This feature will save the searchlight motor from burnout due to accidental activation. The elevation motor has similar features which will timeout in approximately 20 seconds.
