Frequently Asked Questions
What Makes The Car Alarm Go Off?
Your system triggers depend on what type of system you have installed. Here are the triggers for specific system components:
- Alarm siren
If an intrusion is detected (door opened while locked), the vehicle’s alarm will sound to alert those nearby. - Impact detection
Compustar’s dual-stage shock sensors detect two levels of impact – both of which provide unique warning chirps from the alarm siren. - Glass break sensor
The DAS-II glass break sensors operate via built-in microphones that can be easily adjusted to your desired level of sensitivity. - Tilt sensor
The tilt sensor calibrates every time you arm your system. If the DAS detects 1-2º tilt in any direction, the alarm siren will sound. - Starter-kill
While your system is armed, Compustar will safely disable your vehicle’s starter until you disarm your system from the Compustar remote.
If you have a 2-way remote or a Drone, you’ll receive a security alert each time your system is triggered.

What Is A 2-Way Car Alarm?
2-way means that, when your security system is triggered, you’ll receive an instant alert to your remote or smartphone with details about that event. This feature gives you more control over your car security, because you don’t have to rely solely on the car alarm to know someone is tampering with your vehicle.
