Federal Signal Vector Setup questions

Good day to you all!

I own a classic FS Vector with a full rotor setup and im interested how these would typicaly be controlled from inside the car, would they just be connected to a switchbox or have they also been used with Smart sirens like the FS SS2000 and if so wich pods would activate on the slide switch positions.
Since all pods on my Bar are rotors Takedown/alleys wouldnt work unless im missing something. Im thinking of eighter swapping pod 3 and 5 for the static front/rear flashers + alleys or converting it to a Smart vector although my guess is that that would be abit more complicated.
The Board inside the Bar is the small one with 2 Aux and the main Panel for the Rotors.
Currently the Domes are R/B/W+A/R/W+A/B/R

Any advise and ideas are welcome. Im trying to post some pictures later/tomorrow

Have a great day :)

Both were possible, even comparable ones from other manufacturers.
Depending on what the department preferred.

How the rotators can be activated depends on how they are wired on the the board.

Are they all slow, fast or a mixture of both?

Thanks for your reply!

I do perfer Siren controllers like the SS2000 since i already got one and would like to use it with the Vector until i get my hands on a Vision.

I´ve attached a picture of the current wireing, thats how i got it but im not sure if it makes sense, Currently the White/Amber Pods are seperate from the colourd ones so the Bar basicly only has 2 modes. Thats why im asking what would make sense to have on the slide switch positions.

Are they all slow, fast or a mixture of both?
As far as i can tell they are mixed, ill ad a video of the bar operating. They are quite fast but the White ones are faster then the rest as far as i can tell.
The video is older but its still the same Bar.

BTW if anyone has a 8 cell TA for a Vector and mounting feet im looking for those too :)
