Re: Triumph (datatool) alarm question

["Mark Pope" <mark@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ann,
         I've recently had problems with the controller and could not turn
the alarm off.
The battery was new but apparently it is prone to loosing "Sync" with the
alarm on
the bike. To reset the controller, hold the controller close where the Alarm
unit is installed
on the bike and press and hold both buttons ( Circle and Triangle ) until a
long beep is heard.
The controller shoukl now be back in "Sync" with the Alarm.

Mark
