Included in the Kit
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.

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…)
P. 2 Installation Guide Alarm-050
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.

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)

Siren / Horn Chirp Duration Adjustment
(Available only on some models)
The default horn chirp duration is 25 ms. In order to adjust the timing for the Siren, select MODE 2 –
FUNCTION 4 – OPTION 1 or 2. To adjust the timings for the Horn, select MODE 2 – FUNCTION 4 – OPTION 3
or 4. The siren/horn chirp duration can be configured by following these steps:
1. Flash the hood pin switch (see on page 4) - the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.
2. Within 20 sec. press and hold the valet button.
3. Press the
button to enter horn chirp duration adjustment – Siren or Horn will chirp 5 times.
4. Proceed as follows to change the horn chirp duration:
a. Every time you press the
button, the system will increase horn chirp duration by
3 ms. When chirp duration reaches its maximum value (250 ms the siren / horn will
sound 1 long chirp.
b. Every time you press the
button, the system will increase horn chirp duration by
10 ms. When chirp duration reaches its maximum value (250 ms) the siren / horn will
sound 1 long chirp.
c. Every time you press the
button, the system will decrease the horn chirp duration
by 3 ms. When chirp duration reaches its minimum value (10 ms), the siren / horn will
sound 1 long chirp.
d. Every time you press the
button, the system will decrease the horn chirp duration
by 10 ms. When chirp duration reaches its minimum value (10 ms), the siren / horn will
sound 1 long chirp.
e. To save the settings and exit horn chirp duration adjustment, press the
buttons simultaneously (or the press
button on the two-way remote). The siren /
+
horn will sound 3 chirps. Then turn the ignition key to the OFF position.
P. 6 Installation Guide0
Note: As a rule, you will hear only one short chirp for each adjustment of the horn chirp duration. Nevertheless,
you will hear a long chirp (approx. 1 second long) if either the minimum value (10 ms) or maximum value
(250 ms) is reached.
Dome Light Delay.
When the doors are being closed and the vehicle is armed, the module will check the dome light to detect
whether a door has been left open. If the dome light is on, the system will generate three chirps to warn the
user that a door has been left open (There is one chirp if Mode 1 – Function 5 – Option 2 is selected)
Retain Accessory Output
Retain Accessory output is activated as soon as key is turned to the ON position. When the key goes from ON
to OFF position, the accessory output stays ON and a countdown period of 10 minutes is set. The output is
turned OFF after 10 minutes or if a door is opened anytime during the countdown period.
Note: The Accessory Output is also turned off while starting the car.
Zone 2 Disable Output
The unit is equipped with a zone-2 disable output that can be used to immobilize the vehicle when the system is
armed. Zone-2 disable operates in addition to the built-in starter kill.
The unit will give a negative output when the system is armed (locked by remote); this wire can therefore
control an external relay to interrupt the fuel pump or the Ignition.
The starter kill circuit can be configured to passive mode (to arm automatically) with a 1-minute timeout.
Otherwise it can be configured to active mode (in which it must be armed by the user).
Note: Installation of a 2
nd
-zone disable requires an external relay (not included!).
Multi-car Operation
This allows the user to control two systems with one transmitter. (Both vehicles must be equipped with identical
modules)
The remote transmitter of the primary vehicle can control the starter kill system, the door lock and unlock
operations of the second vehicle. The remote transmitter of the second vehicle can also operate the primary
vehicle.
*To program a transmitter for a second vehicle under multi-car operation, you must press on button of the
transmitter in step 4 of transmitter programming procedure (see page 4).
Resetting the Module
The system is equipped with a reset function that allows the installer to erase all transmitter codes and return all
programming options to their factory defaults.
To reset the module:
1. Flash the hood pin switch (see on page 4) - the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.
2. Immediately press and release the valet button 5 times.
3. The parking lights will flash 8 times upon reset.
Note: After a reset has been performed, the system will set all options back to their default values (see the
programming page for default values) and all transmitters will need to be programmed again.

Closing Up
Use tie-wraps or screws to properly secure the starter Module and keep the wiring away from any moving parts
such as the Parking Brakes or Steering Column Shafts. Mount all switches in good and accessible locations
where they do not risk getting kicked or hit accidentally.
Most comebacks are the result of misunderstandings about how a product works or performs. Take the time to
properly explain all functions and features to the customers before they leave the premises. Doing this will save
time and money.
Always make all your connections before plugging in the Module, and be sure to test all functions properly
before closing up the installation.
