The Pin Override System; Entering A New Pin Code - Datatool S4 User Manual

The PIN override system

ALL Datatool ® S4 Alarms have a PIN disarming
feature. As a new product there is no PIN number
programmed into the alarm, therefore we strongly
recommend you enter your own 4 digit number
as one of your first priorities.
NOTE: If you do not enter a PIN number and lose or
damage your remote control whilst out, you will not
be able to disarm your alarm without accessing your
second remote control.
Should you lose all your remote controls and not
know (or have not entered) your PIN number, the
alarm system will have to be returned to Datatool
to be recoded. This is a chargeable service.

Entering a new PIN code

To initialise the PIN number the following procedure
should be followed:
1. Disarm the alarm system using the remote
control. The LED will flash to signify how many
remote controls are coded into the alarm.
2. Immediately after this, turn the ignition ON, OFF
and ON within 5 seconds.
3. Press both buttons on the remote control within
10 seconds of turning the ignition back ON until
the siren beeps confirmation (3 seconds).
4. Turn the ignition OFF and ON.
5. The LED fitted to the machine will flash rapidly
for 3 seconds.
6. After 3 seconds the flashes will slow and a beep
will be heard with each slow flash.
Count the number of slow flashes or beeps from
the siren until it equals the first digit of the required
PIN and turn the ignition OFF and ON. If you wish to
enter a zero turn the ignition OFF and ON
immediately after the rapid flashes stop (i.e. before
the first slow flash).
7. The LED will again start to flash rapidly for
3 seconds and then start to flash slowly along
with the beeps. Count the number of flashes or
beeps from the siren until it equals the second
digit of the required PIN and turn the ignition OFF
and ON.
8. Repeat the process for the 3rd and 4th digits.
9. Once you have entered 4 numbers, the siren will
beep one long tone to indicate their entry. You
then have to confirm your selected PIN number
by entering it again.

10. Turn the ignition ON and repeat the above
procedure with the same PIN.
11. Once re-entered, turn the ignition OFF to
complete the procedure. If the PIN is confirmed
correctly, then the alarm system will give 2 short
tones. If the PIN is confirmed incorrectly, then
the alarm system will give 3 long tones.
NOTE:
a) You can disarm the alarm system with the
transmitter at any time.
b) If the ignition is left off and no action is taken
within 3 minutes, the alarm system reverts to
normal mode.
c) If the ignition is left on for more than 10 seconds,
the alarm will revert to disarmed mode.
d) There is no default PIN, therefore you must set a
PIN to disarm the system in the event of remote
control loss or failure.
e) The number 0000 cannot be used even if initialised.

card instructions and store in a secure location
