Customising the system
4
Section 1. Full Mode
To passively arm the system automatically with all functions enabled,
permanently connect the Yellow wire from the alarm to a suitable earth
(ground) point.
A. If the movement sensor is active, the system LED will flash once
every second
B. If the system is in Convenience Mode (see section 2), the LED will
flash once every two seconds.
C. If you manually arm the CAT1 system within the 50 seconds auto
arm time, by pressing the ‘key’ button, the system will arm with the
movement sensing active.
Section 2. Convenience Mode
During day to day use of the motorcycle there are times when full
passive arming with movement sensing can be inconvenient e.g. filling
with fuel or parking momentarily while opening a garage door. Arming
without movement sensing is called Convenience Mode and can be
achieved automatically when the ignition is switched off or by using the
key fob transmitter depending on how the system has been installed.
A. Where the system is installed to arm all sensors automatically
when the ignition is switched off, (i.e. yellow wire permanently
grounded) convenience mode can be selected by pressing ‘P’ on
the key fob transmitter after the system arms. (Passive arming
takes place 50 seconds after switching off the ignition.
B. To avoid waiting for the system to arm automatically press the ‘key’
button once to manually arm the system before the 50
seconds elapses and then the ‘P’ button to enter
Convenience Mode.
Section 3. Service Mode
There may be times when you really don’t want the system on the
motorcycle. Such as when cleaning, or performing service work. The
Tempest CAT1 has a service mode which effectively makes the Tempest
CAT1 system transparent.
To enter Service Mode, disarm the system, switch on the motorcycle
ignition. With the ignition on press and hold the lock button until the
system gives a ‘beep’ (two to three seconds). This denotes the system
has entered service mode.
In Service Mode, the alarm will beep once every 2 minutes. (If you get
more than one beep see section 4), and the LED will remain on and will
not flash.
If the alarm is left in Service Mode for over 24 hours, the beep will be
switched off.
Remember
in Service Mode your motorcycle is totally
unprotected - the LED will serve as a reminder!
If you are storing your motorcycle, and need to move the motorcycle
now and then, we suggest you arm the system and place it into Full
Mode.
To exit from service mode, press the lock button until the alarm beeps.
