Activate the alarm system by GS-911 WiFi on R1200GS LC?

(1/3) > >>

SuperMek:
Hi all!
Can the BMW alarm system be activated by any method using the GS-911 WiFi unit? The GS-911 will discover the alarm unit, but can it be activated?

GS Jim:
I don't think there is anyway to activate it other than to pick it up off the side stand and/or push it around, at least that's what I did ::)

SuperMek:
Sorry, I have not been entirely clear on the matter!

I'm not looking to have the alarm go off, but to activate a newly installed alarm system on the bike.The normal procedure to have this done is to have any BMW service station to hook the bike up and run the diagnostics, by this discover the newly installed alarm system and have it added to the functions.

Here my question is if this first time activation can be done via the GS-911 WiFi unit instead?

GS Jim:
If your bike came from the factory with the alarm installed then it should just work like the manual says. At least mine did. What model/history etc do you have?

SuperMek:
Of course if it came all together from the factory, but this is not the case here. The alarm system has been added later. I myself installed it, and have now to get it activated.
