Thread: Whelen Dominator Flash Patterns

I have a Whelen D8 Dominator (flasher version, no end flashers or traffic advisor). I am looking for a list of the flash patterns, but the installation manual I found on Whelen's website (http://www.whelen.com/install/138/13897.pdf) doesn't seem to list all the flash patterns that I have. Are there different versions of the Dominator with different flash patterns? Anyone have a list of these patterns?

Model No.: D806200
Serial No.: C0600342
Mfg. Date: 12/07

4, 6 & 8 Lamp Arrays:
SignalAlert™ 75 > CometFlash® 75 > SingleFlash375 > SingleFlash 75 > ActionFlash™ > ModuFlash™ > ZigZag 60 > ZigZag 90 ZigZag 120 > ActionScan™

This is what it says on page 2 of the link you posted

Whelen product brochure lists 7 patterns for the self flasher model:

http://www.whelen.com/pb/Automotive/...lus_Series.pdf

those are the flash patterns. each flash patterns has different configurations:

right half alt. with left half
every other at. with every other
groups of 2 alt with groups of 2 (the 6 head the outer 4 alt. with the inner 2; 8 head outer 4 alt. with inner 4)
all heads flashing at the same time
the 3 different speed zig zags
and scan flash

Thank you now I understand it! For each pattern listed, there's a bunch of different variations.

It's all blue for now. I just bought a LINZ6 version traffic advisor model for the rear... I will post the whole setup in the installations section once I get started on that. I really love the Dominators; they are low-profile, but powerful and customizable units.

What you have is a Dominator DP8. There is a traffic advisor version (or rather, a few of them), namely the TADP8 (the popular model is the TADP8RB with red/blue flashing ends).

There are 7 basic patterns, and four "phases" for each: Phase 1 internal, Phase 2 internal, Phase 1 external (if you're syncing with another dominator), and Phase 2 external.
