Core-S® is a high-performance, all-in-one vehicle control system designed for compact installations in tight spaces like under dashboards or in consoles. It combines siren, input/output, and control functionality in one streamlined package, making it a versatile solution for emergency or utility vehicles. Core-S supports multiple WeCanX® devices, allowing seamless integration with products like Tracer™, Arges®, lightbars, sirens, and more. Its modular design allows for scaling with your fleet’s needs, ensuring smooth performance across different configurations. Core-S allows for Dynamic Variable Intensity™ (DVI™) patterns, which enhance nighttime safety by gradually adjusting the intensity of warning lights, helping motorists navigate emergency scenes more effectively. The system also supports Digital Voice Messaging (DVM), allowing pre-recorded messages to be played at the touch of a button, enhancing communication during critical operations.
