Installation Manual

Note: The method of manual override can either be selected to operate from the valet switch or operate as custom

code. Be certain to place a check mark indicating the method used in the box located on the last page of the owner's manual.

Note: When both Passive Arming and Voltage Sensing are selected, you must hardwire the driver’s door pin

switch in order to begin the passive arming sequence.

INST ALLATION OF MAJOR COMPONENTS

Note: This system allows the transmitter to be programmed for single button lock/unlock or separate

button lock/unlock. The receiver is set up as follows:

Channel #1 = Lock/Unlock/Unlock 2 &Panic Channel #2 = If Programmed, Unlock/Unlock 2 & Panic Channel #3 = Channel 3 & Alternate Channel 3 Channel #4 = Channel 4 Output

Channel #5 = Channel 5 Output (If so Equipped) During the program routine, if a transmitter button is programmed into receiver channel 2, then the unit will always have separate lock/unlock from that transmitter. If during the program sequence receiver channel 1 is programmed, and received channel 2 is skipped over, as indicated in the transmitted program guide, then the unit will operate as a single button lock/unlock unit from that transmitter. It is possible to have one transmitter programmed for single button lock/unlock, and one transmitter programmed for separate button lock/unlock if the customer so desires. If you inadvertently incorrectly program the transmitter, please read the information on re-prioritizing found in the transmitter programming guide.

Control Module:

Select a mounting location inside the passenger compartment ( up behind the dash ), and secure using the two screws provided. The control module can also be secured in place using cable ties.

Do not

mounting the unit directly onto factory installed electronic components. These components may cause RF interference, which can result in poor transmitter range or intermittent operation.

Siren:

Select a mounting location in the engine compartment that is well protected from access below the vehicle. Avoid areas near high heat components or moving parts within the engine compartment. T o prevent water retention, the flared end of the siren must be pointed downward when mounted. Mount the siren to the selected location using the screws and bracket provided.

Hood or Trunk Pin Switch:

A pin switch is included for use in protecting the hood or trunk ( or hatchback ) of the vehicle. The switch must always be mounted to a grounded, metal surface of the vehicle. It is important to select a location where water cannot flow or collect, and to avoid all drip gutters on hood and trunk fender walls. Choose locations that are protected by rubber gaskets when the hood or trunk lid is closed. The pin switch can be mounted using the bracket provided, or direct mounted by drilling a ¼ “ diameter mounting hole. Keep in mind that when properly mounted, the plunger of the pin switch should depress at least ¼ “ when the hood or trunk lid is closed.

Dash Mounted LED:

A small LED is included that will serve as a visual indicator of the alarm status. It should be installed in the dash, located where it can be easily seen from outside the vehicle, yet not be distracting to the driver. Once a location has been selected, check behind the panel for wire routing access, and to confirm the drill will not damage any existing components as it passes through the panel. Drill a ¼ “ diameter hole, and pass the red and blue wires from the LED through the hole, from the front of the panel. Firmly press the body of the LED into the hole until fully seated.

Valet Switch:

Select a mounting location for the switch that is easily accessible to the driver of the vehicle. The switch does not have to be concealed, however, concealing the switch is always recommended, as this provides an even higher level of security to the vehicle. The valet switch can be mounted to the lower side of the dash by drilling a ¼ “ diameter hole in the selected location. Be sure to check behind the dash for adequate clearance for the body of the switch, and to confirm that the drill will not damage any existing components as it passes through the dash. Route the two pin connector toward the control module.

Shock Sensor:

Select a solid mounting surface for the shock sensor on the firewall inside the passenger compartment, and mount the sensor using the two screws provided. The shock sensor can also be secured to any fixed brace behind the dash using tie straps. Whichever mounting method is selected, make certain that the sensitivity adjustment is accessible for use later in the installation.

Large 8 Pin Edge Connector: Red/White (5Amp) & Red Fused (15Amp) Wires : + 12 VDC CONST ANT BA TTERY SOURCE

This wire controls the sensitivity of the voltage sensing circuit, which detects the turning on of an interior light when a door is opened. It will also detect the switching on of parking or headlamps, and in many cases will trigger the alarm when a thermostatically controlled electronic radiator cooling fan switches on. When installing this system into vehicles with electronic “ after fans “, it is recommended you disable the voltage sense circuit. In voltage sensing applications, the closer to the battery that the red wire is connected, the less sensitive the voltage sense circuitry will be. Moving this connection point to the fuse panel will increase the sensitivity , and connecting to the courtesy lamp fuse in the vehicle will provide maximum sensitivity of the voltage sense circuit. Be certain to set selectable feature # 7 to 1 chirp, Voltage Sense On. When hardwiring the control module to pin switches at all entry points, the voltage sense circuit must be disabled. Orange Wire: 300 mA GROUND OUTPUT WHEN ARMED - N. C. ST ARTER DISABLE This wire is provided to control the starter cut relay. Connect the orange wire to terminal 86 of the relay . Connect relay terminal 85 to an ignition wire in the vehicle that is live when the key is in the on and crank positions and off when the key is in the off position. (This is where the yellow wire from the alarm should be connected). Cut the low current starter solenoid wire in the vehicle, and connect one side of the cut wire to relay terminal 87A. Connect the other side of the cut wire to relay terminal 30.

mount the control module in the engine compartment, as it is not waterproof. Y ou should also avoid
