BATTERY BACK-UP SIREN (M60S/M60AU/M60AM – optional on other models)
Vehicle battery disconnection, or cutting the siren wires, will cause the battery back-up siren to
sound independently of an alarm trigger. The siren can be turned off with the special keys
provided or whenever the car battery needs attention or changing.
Please check that the siren has been mounted in such a position so as to avoid water ingress or heat
damage. If washing the engine bay, cover the siren with a plastic bag to prevent water damage.
Heat or water damage is not covered by the warranty.
AUTOMATIC RE-SET
Upon an intrusion (ie; door opened and closed), the siren will sound for 30 seconds, after which it
will stop and reset to the armed position. It will then re-trigger on the next intrusion.
If a door is left open, the siren will sound for 3 x 30 seconds and then that circuit will be bypassed to
avoid unnecessary noise.
(If programmed for NSW, only sounding occurs - must be manually re-set after first trigger)
ARM CONDITION MEMORY
Should the vehicle battery be disconnected, the system memorises the last set position of the alarm.
If the alarm was disarmed prior to battery disconnection, reconnection does not cause the alarm to
sound. If the battery was disconnected whilst the system was armed, reconnection will return the
system to the armed state.
NOISE POLLUTION CONTROL
To reduce noise nuisance and possible false alarms, the system will isolate an individual circuit if it
is triggered three times in succession or is left open.
(Eg: 3 x bonnet/boot, 3 x doors, 3 x ignition, 3 x sensor)
Reset by remote by disarming and then re-arming, or by turning the ignition ‘on’ then ‘off’.
