2 STAGE IMPACT SENSOR (MODEL M60B/M60S – optional on other models)
This sensor is designed to detect impact to the vehicle such as to the bodywork or glass. It should
not be triggered by normal wind, or rocking motions.

If the sensor detects a light impact, the siren will sound a few warning chirps.

If the sensor detects a heavier impact, the analyser circuit will determine this and sound
the siren for 30 seconds and flash the lights.
The sensitivity level is set by the installer and should be at its optimum. Avoid over sensitivity as
people nearby may not respond due to too many false alarms. (This type of sensor may not prevent
wheel theft, we therefore advise the fitment of locking wheel nuts)
There may be times when you wish to deactivate the impact sensor to avoid false alarms, follow the
instructions for ‘sensor disable by remote’ on page 8.
ULTRASONIC SENSOR (M60AU MODEL – optional on other models)
The ultrasonic sensor fill the interior of your vehicle with high frequency sound and is designed to
trigger the alarm when the interior environment changes. Possible changes are the breaking or
removal of glass, a door being opened, or even strong wind through a slightly open window.
For the ultrasonic sensor to operate correctly ensure all doors and windows are closed when
arming the alarm system. (False alarms are generally created by open windows or even strong
wind through the air vents)
Due to the efficiency of this type of sensor, we advise that you do not leave people or animals
inside the vehicle as any movement will trigger the alarm. Should you need to leave people or
animals inside, follow the instructions for ‘sensor disable by remote’ to avoid the alarm being
triggered.
Ultrasonic’s are not recommended for soft top vehicles or vehicles where air movement is likely
within the vehicle.
