Hi can Anyone with a growler tell me what five flashes on the led means?
I've left instructions at home and can't remember what's activated it.
Thanks
Gavin

On our Strikeback alarm, 5 flashes indicates Microwave (hyper frequency unit).

Other codes are :-
2 flashes every six seconds = cab doors
3 flashes = bonnet
4 flashes = side doors, rear doors & accessory loop
5 flashes = microwave
6 flashes = ignition alarm
7 flashes = current drop (when installed.
Hope that helps.

5 flashes = microwave
I always knew it was a good bit of kit, but didn't realise it did all that and made the coffee too! (y):)

we are having one of these fitted in a couple of weeks, just out of curiosity what does the 5 flashes mean when you say "Microwave"?

Yes as the good MHFun members state, five flashes indicates that the internal sensor has detected something.

It's correct title should be "Hyper frequency sensor" It is radio wave not Ultra sonic sensors used in car alarms which don't work well in much larger areas and are susceptible to air movement caused by blown air or air conditioning systems, neither of which are in operation in a car when the alarm is on.

People do giggle a bit when we refer to is as a microwave as they think that it will make the tea! Its good but not that good

Since 2016, caravans before that, folding Caravan, tents before that
Can someone remind me how to set the alarm with the Hyper Frequency Signal disabled?

Wow this is an old thread. To disable the internal sensors you press the normal button to activate the alarm then press the other button once and you hear a beep then press it again for the 2nd beep which then means the internal sensors are disabled.
