When we think of vehicle upfitting, we first notice the equipment installed: lights, sirens, and various accessories. Behind this equipment is also an entire technological component that allows them to be controlled. Among the technologies we integrate into our upfits is the Whelen CORE, which offers numerous possibilities for control and programming.
What is the Whelen CORE?
The Whelen CORE is a control system that manages various equipment and vehicle functions. It can notably control lighting, sirens, and different commands depending on the upfit configuration.
And what about the programming?
An important part of the system also relies on its programming, which determines how the various commands will function.
A button can, for example, be programmed to activate a specific siren or control a particular piece of equipment. The possibilities are numerous and vary depending on the vehicle, its upfitting, and its intended use.
Want to learn more?
How does the Whelen CORE communicate with the vehicle? How are its commands programmed, and what are the system’s possibilities?
In episode 3 of Inside SH, Nicolas, our Whelen master programmer, answers these questions and presents concrete programming examples as well as a demonstration of the CORE in action.
