Siren Tone Programing Procedures
Programming the Siren:
WARNING: Never try to program the siren while it is wired to the
vehicle. A low level audio device is built into the siren so siren tones
can be heard during programming.
There are two important operational characteristics of the siren that can be
reconfigured; Mode of Operation and Tone Selection. The Scan-Lock™
button is used to place the unit in configuration mode as well as to select
the desired changes. The Scan-Lock™ button is located as shown and
can be activated with a pen or similar object. Three LEDs (See front panel)
provide a visual indication of the currently selected mode of operation
during the configuration process. The configuration procedure used to
configure the Mode of Operation is different from the one used to
configure Tone Selection. The procedure for each is outlined below.
Tone Programming:
