Intruder alarm

Alarm triggering

~1min read

If an intrusion attempt is detected, the alarm performs:

  • activation of the self-powered siren for 30 seconds,
  • activation of the indicators and side repeaters (or headlights, depending on country),
  • LED indication of the trigger,
  • a count of the number of volumetric triggers.

After 30 seconds, the alarm returns to armed mode.

A new trigger can only occur 5 seconds after the alarm returns to armed mode.
