Section 4. Diagnostic Mode
Diagnostic Mode will let the system tell you why it has been reacting.
If you experience alarms, it helps to know why. The CAT21 system will
tell you. Entering Diagnostic Mode is the same as entering Service
Mode.
Upon entering this mode, the system will give you a series of beeps.
Compare the number of beeps with the chart below, and that is the
reason the alarm had it’s last trigger. In diagnostic mode, the system
will give these series of beeps once every 15 seconds for 2 minutes,
and then automatically revert to service mode.

Section 5. Different siren tones
Having an individual siren tone helps you, the rider, to be
more aware if it’s your alarm that is making that noise! The CAT21 has
14 different siren tones, and you can select which one you would like.
Some tones will penetrate some materials, such as seat foam, easier
than others. Experiment with what suits you. In the ‘selection’ time the
siren is subdued so you don’t upset your neighbours; too much
anyway. Use discretion at what time of day you do this.

of the remote transmitter together and hold for approx 5 seconds until
indicators flash quickly.
