glossary of terms
Control Unit: The "brain" of your system hidden somewhere on the
motorcycle where it is difficult for a thief to access. It houses the micro-
processor which monitors your vehicle and controls all of the system's
functions. The Merlin 3000 control unit houses the battery backup
siren and Tilt sensor.
Input : A physical connection to the system. An input can be provided
by a sensor, switch or through an existing system on the motorcycle.
LED : Blue light mounted somewhere on the motorcycle. It is used to
indicate the status of your system. It is also used to report triggers and
faults with the system.
Tilt Sensor: A sensor integral with the control module which senses if
the angle of the motorcycle has changed.
Remote : Hand-held transmitter which operates the various functions of
your system.
Trigger or Triggered Sequence: This is what happens when the alarm
"goes off" or "trips." The triggered response of your system consists
of the siren sounding and indicators flashing for 30-seconds.
Valet Switch : A small two-button switch mounted somewhere on the
motorcycle. It is used to override the alarm when a remote is lost or
damaged, or to enter or exit Valet mode and for system programming.
Zone : A zone is a separate input that the alarm can recognize as
unique. Each input to the system is connected to a particular zone.
