I have a full LED Code 3 Excalibur, and I want to play with it! I just can't leave things alone, and this bar is the target of my affection as of recent. I want to make the bar look better, and not lose any effectiveness. I don't need any more effectiveness, as the bar is already extraordinarily bright.
Here's how I currently have it. Modules 2, 3, 6, and 7 are on steady burn, and I like that (You all helped me get it this far!). 4 and 5 are on a flasher, but it's a gay flasher. It's an old school one, my headlights are on the same pattern. It's difficult to explain, but red flashes twice, blue twice, red twice, blue twice, red twice, blue twice, and then both flash twice together. Gay and ineffective. The rest of the bar's modules, 1, 8 and the 4 on the upper deck, are not synchronized at all, they just do their programmed dance.

This is what I want to happen under Code 3 operation, I just need help with how I get it here. I want the 4 upper deck modules, and the two middle ones (4 and 5), synchronized. I want all 3 red modules to flash 3 times or so really fast, then the 3 blue modules to flash 3 times fast, then red, then blue. I think with the 4 main modules being steady burn, and the 45* angle modules doing their dance, the bar will still be quite effective.
I'm sure I'll need to wire all 6 of the modules to a flasher, so that it can alternate the red and blues, but I'm not sure if I can use the same flasher just change its pattern or what.
If you all could help me identify what I have to do to get the bar to do this, I'd appreciate it. I'm new to lightbars, but I'm hooked. Also, I'm welcome to hearing what setups you think would look good on this bar, hell I'd love to try a few different ones.
