Default Whelen Edge light patterns

I am getting ready to hook up the whelen edge on my NV car.
I have a 3 switch Unitrol 480 i am using with it.

The bar is a 8 strobe piece with takedowns and amber rear flashers.
The inner strobes flash front and rear
-outer strobes flash front and rear
and there is an action cycle that makes all the strobes flash in pattern.

What would be the best way to run the patterns on each switch selection?
I also have my wig wag headlights i am hooking into the light controller also.
Thanks

My last marked car had a PCC9. 1 was rear flashers, 2 was the whole bar, 3 was the bar and siren.

I agree with Mike stage one is only the rear lights. Stage two is front and rear and out here stage three is all the lights if you have alley light those also. However, the siren is set manually and to the horn to change the tones. Good luck.

We had that as well (referred to as Tap II by FedSig; siren or air horn through the "horn ring", depending on settings selected).

The siren on 3 was convenient since you didn't have to fiddle around with the buttons. It was just on, and you could use the steering wheel to cycle between tones when you needed to, like you described. You killed it by going back to 2.
