Please review the installation guide before beginning the installation, especially the wiring diagram and the
programming options. It is very important that you familiarize yourself with the programming and operation of
the system, even if you have already installed an alarm system in the past. There are many great new features
that may be overlooked if the manual is not read: you would therefore not maximize the unit’s potential. Prior to
the installation, make sure that all the hardware components required to install the system are in the box.

Installation Points to Remember
o When working on a vehicle always leave a
window open.
o Never leave the keys in the car. Leave them
on a workbench with a window rolled down.
o If possible, remove courtesy light fuse to
prevent battery drain.
o Inspect vehicle for any body damage or
electrical problems.
o Make sure that all the switches and controls
operate properly.
o Verify that the vehicle starts and idles
properly.
o Never install control unit where it could
interfere with normal operation or obstruct
service technicians.
o Do not disconnect the battery on vehicles
equipped with air bags and anti-theft radios.
o Always use a grommet when running wires
into the engine compartment.
o Never run wires through bare or sharp metal.
o Always solder and tape all connections.
o Never ground the control unit to the steering
column of the vehicle.
o When you probe /test the wires of a harness,
make sure you check the plug-in connector.
o The wires for the air bags aren’t always
identified on the harness (split loom or a
yellow tape). However they are always
identified on the connector.
o Keep the Transceiver away from other types
of antennas (GPS/Onstar).
o Make sure all security equipment is installed:
the Valet switch, the hood pin and the warning
label.
Programmable Features
The unit was designed with flexibility and OEM integration in mind. The system gives installers the output
flexibility that every good installer is looking for; this unit can be customized and used for almost every possible
application.
With the integration of timed-latched and ON / OFF outputs, this unit can single-handedly control virtually any
electrical system in the car!
The programmable features are as follows:
1. Ignition-Controlled Door Locks
• OFF by default. This feature will LOCK all the Doors of the vehicle while the Ignition Key is in the
IGNITION ON (RUN) position and only when all the doors are closed (there is no recurrence of this
action). The unit will UNLOCK all Doors when the Ignition Key is turned back to the OFF position.
• If Ignition Lock Only is selected, the system will only LOCK all Doors while the Ignition Key is in the
IGNITION ON (RUN) position and only when all the doors are closed (there is no recurrence of this
action).
• If option Ignition Unlock Only is selected, the system will UNLOCK all Doors when the key is turned to
the OFF position (provided that the Ignition key was in the IGNITION ON (RUN) position).
2. Passive or Active Arming
• (Passive with a 1-min. time out by default.) The alarm system on this unit can be set to active mode (in
which it will not arm itself automatically) or to passive mode (arms itself automatically) with a 1-minute
timeout.
3. Door Lock Pulse Duration
• (¾-sec. lock and ¾-sec. unlock pulses by default.) This system can be programmed to give either 3.5-
sec. lock /unlock pulses (this is used to control vacuum door-lock system, for instance on Mercedes) or a
single ¾ -sec. lock pulse with a double ¼-sec. unlock pulse (this is used for double-pulse disarm/unlock
systems, as in the Maxima, Pathfinder, and Volkswagen…)

4. Relock
• If you unlock the doors with the remote transmitter, but do not open any door or trunk within 60 seconds,
the doors will automatically relock.

Output (armed output)
This wire must be connected to bare, unpainted metal (the
chassis or true body ground). It is preferable that you use a
factory ground bolt rather than a self-tapping screw.
Connect to the +12 V power feed of the vehicle, at the Ignition
harness. The source wire should have +12 V without Ignition
key in the cylinder.
Connect this wire to the installed hood pin switch supplied.
Connect to ground or +12 V for polarity control on pin #5
Connect to parking lights circuit of the vehicle. This wire will
give either a positive or a negative output; depending on the
polarity of pin #4.
Connect to the Ignition wire of the vehicle. The source wire
should have +12 V with the ignition key in the IGNITION ON
(RUN) and CRANK positions.
When connected to the wire that provides ground when remote
started this input will cause the alarm system to ignore the
ignition and shock sense while running by remote start.
(Trigger alarm input — selected by Default)
Connect to the wire that tests ground with a door open. Note:
This wire should monitor all the doors.
Connect to the circuit of the car giving +12 V when a door is
opened (usually the dome-light circuit).
This wire will provide 500mA ground output depending on the
configuration of Mode 1, Function 5 (see programming options)
This wire will provide 500mA ground output depending on the
configuration of Mode 1, Function 4 (see programming options)
This wire will provide 500mA ground output depending on the
configuration of Mode 1, Function 3 (see programming options)
This wire will provide a constant 500mA output when the
system is armed (locked by remote control). It can be
connected to an external starter interrupt relay.
This wire should be connected to a single pole double-throw
relay: this wire will connect to pin 85 on the relay, and pin 86
will be connected to the ignition wire.
