Can CYCLONE honk my bikes horn or flash the turn signal lamps when the siren goes off?

Technically yes, but the 866F was not designed specifically for that task and we unfortunately do not have wiring information to make your connection job easier. But if you add an optional relay (automotive grade, from a 3rd party vendor) to Cyclone’s Pager Output, you can activate the horn and/or illuminate the turn signals while the main 866F siren goes off. The side benefit is that the pager output will still function fine with our optional paging system if you do this. The disadvantage to this is that the horn/lights would continuously sound/illuminate for the full 10/30 seconds the siren goes off. The reason is because the 866F Pager Output powers whatever device is attached to it for the full duration of the siren (full siren, not chirps). If you decide to connect a relay to power your horn, we strongly recommend setting the siren output duration to 10 seconds. (When connecting a relay, keep in mind that CYCLONE’s pager output is positive +12v.
