Extending your security

Extra siren/Pager output

This system contains a supplementary output which
becomes positive only when the siren is sounding.
This wire is identified by a green and yellow tag on
the end.
The position of this wire is detailed on your certificate
of installation.
This output can be used to drive extra sirens, pagers
or telephone diallers. Your dealer can give you advice
regarding any extras you may wish to add along with
costs.
WARNING: Do not connect the extra siren wire
directly to your motorcycle horn. Should you
do this, the output may be damaged.

Covering accessories

The alarm system has a secondary trigger input,
which in certain instances may be able to be
connected to the side stand or to be used to offer
some protection to detachable luggage etc, by
looping an extension cable through it.
This is not part of the standard installation so please
discuss this with your dealer.

Garage security

Your alarm system can be extended to give protection
to your garage whilst the machine is parked within it.
There are two methods available, a remote linked
passive infra-red detector system and a hard-wired
magnetic contact system.
The Magnetic Reed Switch System
(Part number 02012006)
If you wish only to protect the doors and windows of
the garage you can use the Datatool
kit. This directly plugs into the machine via an
accessory socket Part No 02012007.
18
The kit contains three magnetic reed switches along
with all the cables and fixings required to carry out
the installation to most normal garages. Extra
switches are available if required.
For this kit to work the alarm must be armed.
The Passive Infra Red system
(Part number 02012084)
This uses a battery powered sensor of a similar type
used in house alarm systems. This communicates
with the alarm system via radio waves so no direct
connection to the machine is required. The signal
coding used is unique to Datatool
As the sensor communicates with the unit by radio
waves it needs to be coded into the alarm system
before it works.
Do not buy any other type of sensor as you will not
be able to code it into the system.
Details of how to code it to the sensor are contained
within the sensor kit.
It is possible to code more than one sensor to the
system. The maximum distance between the sensor
and the alarm system should be no more than 10
metres.
Please remember the PIR sensor will detect any
movement within its line of sight range, such as pets.
Please bear this in mind when selecting the position
for this type of sensor.
If you do not want the sensor to work temporarily do
not arm the alarm, simply allow it to passive arm as
an immobiliser only.
If you wish to further extend the coverage it is
possible to wire the magnetic switch kit detailed
previously directly to the PIR sensor instead of to the
machine. The sensor will then trigger the alarm

Hi. I have a bike which got unplugged from the t/charger causing a flat battery. The battery for the bike is ok now but the alarm initially kept going off then set,or so it seems. The alarm is not showing arming or disarming now. My bike can be started and the flashy light on the fob is working. Pls help?

To troubleshoot the Datatool S4 alarm system that is not showing arming or disarming after a flat battery:

1. Check the Fuses – Ensure all motorcycle fuses, including the alarm fuse, are intact.
2. Reset the Alarm – Disconnect the alarm system and reconnect it to reset.
3. Check the Wiring – Ensure all alarm connections are secure and no wires are damaged.
4. Use a Battery Conditioner – If the battery was disconnected, using a Datatool battery conditioner can help maintain the charge.
5. Check Ignition Sense – If the alarm does not respond even with ignition ON, verify that the alarm unit is receiving ignition sense.
6. Verify Kill Switch Position – Ensure the kill switch is in the ON position.
7. Reinstall Indicators Properly – If indicators were changed, ensure correct wiring to avoid alarm malfunction.

If the issue persists, contact your dealer for further assistance.
