ALARM

Warnings
Once armed, if the motorcycle is moved or if the ignition key is turned to IGNITION and the fob is not present, the alarm will warn the operator with three alternate flashes of the turn signals and a chirp of the optional siren.
Within four seconds, if no further motion is detected and/or the ignition key is turned to OFF, the module will remain armed without activating the alarm.
If the motorcycle motion continues or the ignition key is not turned back to OFF, the module will issue a second warning four seconds after the first.

NOTE During warnings and alarms, the starter motor and the ignition circuits are disabled.

The Alarm If the Smart Security System is still detecting motion and/or if the ignition key has not been turned back to OFF after a second warning, the system will activate the alarm.

When activated, the Smart Security System will:

  • Alternately flash the four turn signals.
  • See Figure 40. Sound the optional siren.

Duration: The alarm will stop within 30 seconds and if no motion is detected, the alarm will not restart.
However, if motorcycle motion continues the system will repeat the 30-second alarm and recheck for motion. The alarm will repeat this 30-second alarm cycle for five minutes (10 cycles) or until the alarm is deactivated.

NOTE
The alarm will also activate the LED, vibration or audible modes of a Harley-Davidson Security Pager. A pager can operate either in silent or in combination with an optional Smart Siren. The range of a pager can be up to 0.5 mile (0.8 km). See a Harley-Davidson dealer for details.
