INSTALLATION MANUAL

3RP 5-BUTTON SERIES

VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM

WITH NETWORK INTERFACE

Before you begin the installation

•

Read the INSTRUCTIONS!

• Always use a multi-meter when verifying
vehicle wiring.

•

Before mounting the product,

verify with
the customer the desired location for the valet
switch and LED.

•

Protect the vehicle by using fender

covers.

•

Always look before drilling. Make sure
you will not cause damage to vehicle
hoses, electrical looms or physical damage
to vehicle.

• Set the Polarity Jumpers inside the main unit.
(see Jumper Settings)

Installation Instructions

Mounting System Module

Mount the system module under the dash
where it will be difficult for a potential
thief to locate the module, and away from
moving parts such as brake pedals, etc.

Route the antenna wire away from wire
looms, computer modules and metallic
objects for better range.

Mounting Siren

Mount the siren in a suitable place under
the hood, away from hot and moving
engine parts such as manifolds, fan belts,
etc. Make sure the siren cannot be
accessed from underneath the vehicle or
through the grill. Face the siren down so
that water cannot accumulate inside the
siren bell. Protect wires running through
the firewall using either tape or split loom
tubing. If a new hole is needed,protect the
wire from chaffing by installing a proper
size grommet.

Mounting Shock Sensor

Secure the shock sensor to the steering
column, thick wire harness or a dash brace,
using a wire tie. Make sure that the
adjustment screw is accessible for later
testing and adjustment.

INSTALLATION MANUAL

Main Harness:

• BROWN WIRE - Siren wire output (+) 3A.
Connect to the siren’s red wire. Connect the
siren’s black wire to ground.

• BLACK WIRE - Ground input (-).Connect to
a solid chassis ground that is clean and free of
paint or dirt.

• ORANGE WIRE - Armed Output (-) 500mA.
Connect to a relay for optional circuit defeat
(See installation diagrams).The ORANGE wire
provides a ground when the unit is armed to
activate a fuel pump disable relay or other
device (i.e. window control module, etc.).

• BLUE/BLACK WIRE - Optional sensor input
(-). Connect this wire to the trigger output of
an optional sensor.

• YELLOW WIRE - +12V Ignition input.

Connect to a main ignition wire at the ignition
switch harness.This wire shows +12V when the
ignition is on and while cranking. The voltage
must not drop when the car is starting.

• BROWN/WHITE WIRE - Horn output (-)
500mA. Connect to an optional relay to activate

the vehicle’s horn when the alarm is triggered.

• BLACK/YELLOW WIRE - Auxiliary 3 output
(-) 500mA. Connect to a relay for an optional
feature such as headlight activation, etc. This
output may be programmed for momentary,
timed, or latched operation.

• GRAY WIRE - Auxiliary 1 output (-) 500mA.
Connect to a relay for optional features such as
trunk release, etc. This output is programmable
for momentary, timed, or latched operation.

• WHITE WIRE - Parking Light output (+/-)
10A relay. Connect to the vehicle’s parking light
wire.If the vehicle’s parking light circuit exceeds
10 amps a relay is required. For vehicle’s with
independent left and right parking light circuits,
the parking light wires must be connected using

diodes to keep the circuits separate.NOTE: Do
not connect the WHITE wire to the vehicle’s
headlight circuit.

• RED WIRE - +12V Battery input. Connect

the red fused wire on the main harness to a
constant +12V source.This source wire should
be at least 20 amp supply.

• BLACK/WHITE WIRE - Dome Light output
(+/–) 15A relay. Connect to the wire that
activates the vehicle’s dome light, usually the
door pin switch wire. NOTE: The dome light
output is usually connected to the same wire
used for the door trigger input (See GREEN
and VIOLET door trigger wires).

• BLUE/WHITE WIRE - Passenger Unlock
output (-) 500mA. Connect to an optional relay
to unlock the passenger doors when the system
is configured for Driver Priority Unlocking.

• WHITE/RED WIRE - Auxiliary 2 output (-)
500mA. Connect to a relay or module for an
optional feature such as power window
activation or remote start, etc.This output may
be programmed for momentary, timed, or
latched operation.

• VIOLET WIRE - Positive door trigger (+).
Connect to the door switch circuit wire that
shows +12V when the door is open. This type
of door circuit is usually found on Ford vehicles.

• GREEN WIRE - Negative door trigger (-).
Connect to the door switch circuit wire that
shows ground when the door is open.

• BLUE WIRE - Trunk/Hood trigger (-). Connect
the Blue wire to the trunk and/or optional hood
pin switches.The switch must provide a ground
output when switch is opened. If the optional
remote start module is installed, connect the
blue wire to the trunk pin switch only and
connect the hood pin input on the remote start
module to the hood pin switch only.

Starter Defeat Connectors

Using a volt/ohm meter locate the starter wire
(normally a heavier gauge wire) at the ignition
switch. This wire will show +12V only during
cranking. When this wire is cut the vehicle will
be unable to start.

Cut the BROWN starter disable wire (with the
two female connectors),and connect one side to
the vehicle’s starter wire coming from the key
switch. Connect the other BROWN wire to the
wire going to the starter.

Plug the female connectors on the BROWN
wires to the .250 male spade lugs on the module.
With the BROWN wires connected to the
module, the vehicle should be able to start.

Plug in Connectors

4-Pin White Connector: Plug-in connector
port for dual stage shock sensor.

2-Pin Blue Connector: Plug-in connector port
for valet switch. Mount valet switch in an area
that is easily accessible from the driver’s position.

2-Pin Red Connector: Plug-in connector port
for LED. Mount LED in an area where it may be
easily seen from either side of the vehicle.

3-Pin White Door Lock Connector: Plug-in
connector port for door lock harness or
optional door lock relay module (PDLM-3).

• BLUE WIRE - negative unlock output (-)
500mA and positive lock output (+) 250mA.

• RED WIRE - constant +12V low current
output (+) for relay modules, or inverters.
300mA relay trigger only. Do NO

T use as a

power source for door lock relays.

• GREEN WIRE - negative lock output (-)
500mA and positive unlock output (-) 250mA.

3-Pin White Network Connector: The plug-in
network connector port is located on the side

of the main module. This network port may be
used with the optional personal computer
interface for diagnostics, software customization
and expanded programming options. The
network also offers connection to several
optional accessories.
