PT-42 Front Heaters

[mbrund]

Forgot to answer the remainder of your questions: Yes my system
works properly, I had to purchase two new keyfobs as they are sealed
units and you can not replace the batteries because they are
sealed. I had to call them and give them the serial # off the back
of the old keyfobs and they programmed two new ones and sent them to
me. So I can arm/disarm it from keyfob or from the Mikes switch
inside. I can also set the panic alarm off from the bedroom
overhead panel as well.

The BB manual also mentions besides the magnetic window sensors that
there are glass breakage sensors in the living and bedroom area, so
that box you mention with the twist knob may be for setting their
sensitivity. I see two sensors in my coach that I am not sure what
they are for, one is on the back of the drivers console, the other
is right above the rear shirt closet mirrored doors. I was thinking
they are temp sensors but have not traced them yet to see where they
go.

The company name is: Alarm Electronics Mfg. Inc, website is:

Phone: 704-632-3365

My docs from Them say its mode: Ultralok Gold.

system. The system is not working properly the headlight warning
light comes on and for some reason the right hand mirror control
lights up. When arming or disarming the headlights come on with the
amber lights. But they go out right away. The little LED does not
light in any position. I would like it to work but it really isn't
necessary, except for the fact that my insurance company will give a
discount off my policy if I have an alarm system. Any idea what the
the twist knob and red light on the smaller of the two boxes is for.
The larger box is the receive for the fobs, it has a short antenna
wire. The siren works you can activate it from the bedside console.
If you still have the Manufacturers phone number or address / e-
mail? I would like to have it. Does your system work and do you use
it much? Thanks for your time.
