Siren Setup - Vision 1480 Series Owner's Manual

NOTE
We strongly suggest you avoid connecting the siren's RED or BLACK
wires in parallel with the Power & Ground wires of the 1480. For ex-
ample, if you splice Power/Ground off the OBD plug, it may cause a
voltage drop malfunction in the alarm system. Even though it's trouble-
some, we recommend a direct connection to the car's battery.
LOCATION
Unlike the 1480 control module and sensors, the siren is to be mounted
within the engine compartment. That means you must run a wire through
Brown Siren Output wire to the siren. Avoid mounting the siren in places
where water can pool or constantly fall on the siren.
BACKUP SIREN KEYS
The 1480B comes with a Battery Backup Siren, and two
siren keys. At the factory, the siren is Disabled so it will
not make any sound until you Enable it by switching the
keylock to the GREEN dot position, as shown at right.
Keep the siren Disabled until you have made all your con-
nections, otherwise the siren may trigger.
Be sure to keep your keys in two separate safe places. You cannot order
replacements. And you will need a key if the siren goes off for some reason
and you cannot shut it off by normal means (with the remote).
BACKUP BATTERY
As is true with all batteries, the battery inside the 1480B's backup siren
life in the engine compartment is 3 years, under a constant trickle charge
of 5.5mA. The battery is warrantied for 1 year. You cannot replace the
battery, but the siren will continue to operate even after the battery is dead
(you simply will lose the backup function).
