Arming the system
Passive arming
Unless the unit has been placed in ‘winter’ mode, the system always passively arms 45 seconds after the ignition is turned
off. When the ignition is turned OFF the LED will light continuously and after 40 seconds emit a set increasing rate beeps
follow by the LED changing to flashing to indicate the system has armed.
The audible signal is to warn the customer the system is about to arm as an immobiliser only, so acting as a reminder to
arm the system fully should they wish to do so. This audible warning signal cannot be deleted.
When set to passively arm as an immobiliser the system only arms the immobiliser and a delayed anti hot-wire trigger
(Note: The S4 Green is not equipped with an immobiliser)
If the customer wishes to make the alarm fully arm passively, it can be done via the software switches covered within the
customisation section of this manual. In this mode it will fully arm 45 seconds after the ignition is turned OFF.
This software switch is available to the customer should they wish to do this themselves.
Fully arming the alarm system
To fully arm the alarm system to give movement, nudge, trigger switch and battery back-up coverage, press the Grey
button on the remote control within 45 seconds of turning off the ignition (Note: The S4 Yellow does not have battery
back-up).
The system will flash the indicators twice.
The LED will start to flash 5 seconds after pressing the remote and will be fully armed after 20 seconds.
If you have changed the default settings within the software section and selected FULL passive arming of both the alarm
AND immobiliser the alarm will automatically arm 45 seconds after turning off the ignition and be fully active 20 seconds
later or you can still arm it instantly by pressing the Grey button of the remote within the first 45 seconds after turning off
the ignition (Note: The S4 Green is not equipped with an immobiliser).
If the system has passively armed as an immobiliser and you wish to arm it fully, simply press the Grey button TWICE.
The first press disarms the system, the second arms it fully.
Arming the system without the movement sensor (‘Ferry’ Mode).
To arm the alarm system but have both the movement and nudge sensors turned off; press the Black button within 10
seconds of arming the system with the Grey button of the remote control.
The system will flash twice to indicate the alarm has been armed and then give three further flashes of the indicators to
confirm the movement sensors have been turned OFF. The system will still have immobilised the machine and the alarm
will react if the machine is hot-wired, the supply to the alarm is tampered with or one of the trigger switches is activated.
If you press the Black button of the remote after more than 10 seconds of arming the alarm nothing will happen and the
alarm will still remain fully armed with the movement sensors ON.
This process has to be carried out EVERY time you wish the alarm to be in ‘Ferry’ mode.
