Whelen ARGES Spotlight Controller

Whelen ARGES Spotlight Controller

Command your perimeter lighting with absolute precision using the Whelen ARGES Spotlight Control Head. When an officer needs to illuminate a suspect fleeing into a tree line, fumbling with a touchscreen or tiny joystick is not an option. The ARGES Control Head features a brilliantly intuitive mechanical paddle that maintains a 1:1 relationship with the spotlight—point the paddle, and the ARGES motor instantly snaps the 130,000-candela beam to that exact location. It allows officers to rapidly track targets with eyes out the windshield, never looking down at the console.

Key Features & Upfitter Specs

• 1:1 Paddle Interface: The mechanical paddle exactly mimics the orientation of the ARGES spotlight on the fender. Push it forward, the light tilts up; twist it right, the light rotates right instantly.
• Home Position Button: Features a dedicated "Home" button that immediately rotates the spotlight forward and tilts it down into its aerodynamic, low-profile resting position before entering highway speeds.
• Dual Unit Control: A single ARGES Control Head is capable of operating two separate ARGES spotlights simultaneously, providing massive illumination capabilities for heavy command vehicles.
• WeCanX Integration: Can operate as a standalone unit or seamlessly integrate into a CenCom Core system via WeCanX, allowing the spotlight to automatically respond to pursuit modes or door openings.
• Manual Override Indication: Features an LED indicator that turns blue when the control head is idle, letting officers know they can manually adjust the spotlight head from outside the vehicle without damaging the motor.
