Once Armed, If the System is Activated:

System Armed & Activated
Once the system is in an armed state it monitors all protected zones, and if an
intrusion attempt is detected it will activate, or “trigger”.
An activation consists of the following:
• The siren will start sounding.
• The exterior parking lights, if connected, will flash on and off repeatedly.
An activation has a 30 second duration (or, optionally 60 seconds) unless the
system is disarmed using the transmitter or the Valet/Override switch. If all
protected zones are secure at the end of the activation, the system will stop and
In addition to detecting impacts to the vehicle and detecting a current draw from
the battery (example- interior light illuminating from opened door), the Freedom-
400 has a detection circuit which may be used to protect the hood, trunk or
doors. If this circuit is in a violated state when arming the system, the confirma-
tion will be three chirps instead of one. The system will still arm, but it will bypass
the open zone until the zone is secured; once secured, this zone is protected.
