All functionality is controlled by your existing ignition key (or mobile - M2 version).

What is a 'suitable lamp circuit'?

 

The positive wire of any lamp directly connected to the ignition circuit.

Typically a tail lamp circuit, rego plate lamp circuit or park lamp circuit.

 

Look for lamps that illuminate when you switch your ignition on.

Confirm which lamps stay on during starting (slight dimming is ok).

A 'suitable lamp circuit' is simply the positive wire of one of these lamps.

 

Note: Bikes with headlamp on/off switches may require minor electrical modification.

Please refer to the Installation and User Manual for detailed installation instructions.

Why don't Ignitor® Motorbike Alarms immobilise the engine?

 

The effectiveness of immobilisers on motorcycles is somewhat questionable.

So why pay for it when most thieves will simply lift your bike on the back of a truck.

 

Depending on the experience of your installer and the quality of the components,

electrical immobilisation may have serious consequences to the reliability of your ride.

 

The best way to immobilise your bike is with a quality disc lock.

How sensitive are Ignitor's motion detectors?

 

The Ignitor® M1 employs a gold plated roller ball sensor for the detection of movement.

If the ball moves, the alarm is triggered - Simple. Typically, moving or sitting on the bike

will trigger the alarm. The gentle application of a rain cover for example, will not trigger the alarm.

The Ignitor® M1 will exhibit a similar level of sensitivity regardless of mounting orientation.

Note however, that the Ignitor will experience more movement if mounted higher on the bike.

 

The Ignitor® M2 boasts the latest 16-bit, triple-axis, digital accelerometer from ST Microelectronics.

Its sensitivity can be adjusted to your personal requirement via SMS from anywhere on the planet.

(subject to GSM coverage).

Will an Ignitor® Motorcycle Alarm flatten my battery?

 

No -

 

The simplicity of the Ignitor® M1 ensures that the power consumption is kept to a bare minimum.

The Ignitor® M1 draws a mere 0.55mA when armed (one tenth that of other systems).

 

The Ignitor® M2 monitors your battery level and shuts down should your battery fall below a specified level

(Yes of course it will send you a SMS before doing so).

What about nuisance alarms?
