Customising the system
Section 7. Hazard (4-way flasher) Mode
With the motorcycle ignition off, system armed or disarmed, Hold the
‘key’ and ‘P’ button down simultaneously for approx 3 secs.
If the indicators flash five times and then go out, then either;
A. The motorcycle ignition is on, or
B. The motorcycle battery is of insufficient voltage
WARNING
The system monitors the motorcycle battery when in Hazard mode. If
the motorcycle battery voltage begins to decline to a point where
your motorcycle may no longer start, the unit will switch the hazards
off automatically.
Section 8. Customising the nudge sensor and
movement sensitivity
A. In high winds, the nudge sensor may activate the system. It will
determine the rocking is an attempt to remove items such as fairing
panels, seat or luggage. Too many ‘nudges’ in a set period of time
will result in a full reaction. You can remove this function, and add it
back when it suits you.
With the alarm disarmed, and the ignition switched on, press the ‘P’
button. This will toggle the pre-alert function off and on. (3 flashes - off
and 6 flashes - on)
B. If the movement sensor Is insensitive, ground the BROWN wire
which comes from the alarm. This will increase the sensitivity.
Section 9. Indicator warning
The Acumen Tempest CAT1 system can be set as a turn
signal reminder. It’s all too easy to leave indicators on - with possible
disastrous consequences. The system is set to have this function
enabled when it leaves our factory.
The indicator warning will ignore the first 30 flashes of your indicators,
then start to beep, quietly. It will get louder and louder to a maximum
loudness at 60 flashes.
To remove/add this function;
Place the system in service mode (see section 3). With the motorcycle
ignition off press all three buttons on the remote transmitter for approx
5 seconds until the indicators flash rapidly.
10 flashes indicate the feature has been turned OFF
5 flashes indicates the feature has been turned ON.
Section 10. Motorcycle Over-voltage
If your motorcycle has problems with its own electrical system, you
may not be aware of this until it’s too late. Overcharging of the
motorcycle battery will result in greatly reduced battery life and
possible breakdown. The Acumen Tempest CAT1 system monitors your
motorcycle electrical system for over-voltage while the motorcycle is
being used (set at 16V). If the system has been subjected to over-
voltage, it will beep 3 times as soon as the ignition is switched off. If this
happens several times, we recommend you have your motorcycle
examined by an authorised dealer.
