A Klaxon was a type of alarm. Many starships were equipped with Klaxon alarms.

Behind the scenesEdit

Klaxon is technically a trademark (currently used primarily by Klaxon Signals, Ltd.) for a specific brand of alarm produced on Earth, which has come into common usage to describe any alarm with an "ah-ooh-gah" sound. Curiously, the term is capitalized in several Star Wars novels.
