It is important to first understand that the Excalibur has a primary audible output,
for the electronic siren, and that it also has a programmable output which among
its optional applications is being used to sound the vehicle’s existing horn as a
secondary audible output. This feature changes only the primary audible output,
so that it can be utilized to sound the existing horn by itself. In this case it is not
necessary to use the programmable output, so that it can still be used for its other
features, such as disarming the factory alarm or as an additional channel output.
The Steady Siren setting is exactly that- a steady output which the electronic
siren requires. When programming this feature for using the output for the vehicle’s
horn, the optional setting produce pulsed output on the system’s siren wire, in
three different pulse timings, which allow a degree of customization of the horn’s
sound during the alarm activation.

there is a brief period of time in which a system activation, or alarm, cannot occur.
This Arming Delay allows the system to completely process its sensory parameters,
which can include allowing the vehicle itself to stabilize. In some cases more time
is needed than the factory-set 3 seconds, and this feature offers three longer delay
options.

ured at the installation of the system. Please read the sections of
this manual which explain programmable features, and please
consult your installer for specifics on how your system is config-
ured, and for installation options which may have used, or can be
added to system after installation.
EXAMPLE- the Excalibur can sound the vehicle’s horn in place of
or in addition to the electronic siren which is included with it. But
the operations are described with the siren only.
Status
Light
Valet
Switch
The
Status Light
and
Valet Switch
may be mounted in an included holder,
shown here, or these items may be independently custom-mounted within the
vehicle. If the optional Echo 2-
way controller is used, the Status
Light and Valet Switch are within
a long-range receiver module,
typically mounted to the windshield
or other glass. The Status Light may
be either blue or red; included with
your Excalibur system is a blue
light (red is available optionally),
and it is red in the Echo receiver module.
Considering the flexible location choices for the Status Light and Valet Switch,
and the available options, please discuss with the installer your preferences, or
ensure that they show the location and operation of these important system
components.
The Excalibur AL-1000-EDP is capable of having the optional
Omega “Echo” added to it, which would add 2-way control and
confirmation paging. In this case, the AL-1000-EDP’s operations
would be identical to that of the AL-1500-EDP. If the Echo is added,
the instructions included with the Echo kit would then supplement
this instruction booklet.
