The N8081 is designed to alternately light 2 series-pairs of LEDs, (1 red & 1 blue in each pair) to simulate the emergency lights on the front & rear of police motorcycle, circa 1950’s. Solder points 3,4 & 5 drive these LEDs. An additional output is provided for a white LED for a headlight at points 6 & 7.

Installing the N8081 is very straightforward. Because the module has circuitry on both sides, care must be taken to be sure that the components or wires soldered will not make contact with any metal object which could cause a short  circuit. 

Included with the module are two 6” lengths of #32 insulated wire. If necessary, these can be used for power input wires. If used, we recommend the red wire be used for the + DC connection. It would be connected to solder point 1 as shown in Fig. 1. This wire could also connect through a switch to the + DC connection for remote control of the lighting effect. The other (black) wire should be connected to – DC and to solder point 2.

Important note: A low-wattage iron with a pointed tip should be used for connection of wires. Too much heat or solder can easily damage the wires, decoder or module and void the warranty.

Also, all connecting wires should be pre-tinned before soldering them to the module. This will make connection quick and easy and ensure excessive heat is not applied to the solder points.
