Note: Certain features described in this manual may require additional parts and/or labor. Also, many features of
the Ungo MS5500 security systems have selectable options that must be activated or programmed during the
system’s installation. These items will be identified in the following sections. Your Authorized Ungo Dealer
will be happy to discuss these features with you and help you design your system to meet your needs.
Ungo Security Systems are state-of-the-art vehicle protection systems equipped with features
designed to:
❐ Deter potential intrusions to the vehicle by continually flashing the system LED status
indicator while the system is Armed, giving a visual indication to any passer-by that the
system is equipped with a security system.
❐ Detect intrusions to the vehicle, including impacts to the vehicle’s body and glass, and
opening of the doors, trunk and hood.
❐ Alert those in the vicinity of the vehicle by sounding the system’s siren and flashing,
parking lights, and honking the horn.
❐ Inform the owner when the system has been triggered and specifically which zone was
violated. The system will also inform the user of any bad switches or sensors that may
be causing the system to function improperly.
❐ Protect both you and the contents of your vehicle with features such as panic mode,
dome light illumination, and ignition controlled door locking.
Each Ungo MS5500 System comes with:
• Main Unit - the “brain” of the system.
• 2 - Three Button Remote Transmitters
• 125dB Siren - Water resistant, high output siren that sounds when system is triggered.
Also used to provide audible system status information.
• Logic Sensor II - Ungo Security’s patented sensor that detects both shock and motion.
• Status LED - red illuminated indicator that provides system status information.
• Emergency Override / Valet Switch - used to override the system in case the Remote
Transmitters become lost or stolen. Also used to temporarily disable the system when the
vehicle is being serviced or turned over to a parking attendant.
Options and Convenience Features
The advanced design of the Ungo system incorporates a number of optional inputs and outputs
allowing you to create a customized security / convenience system by easily accommodating
many optional convenience and security features such as:

Remote Transmitter Layout
Each MS5500 system comes with 2 multifunction Remote Transmitters used to control nearly all
of the system’s features.
Each time a transmitter button is pressed, the LED will flash to indicate that a transmission is
taking place.
The Remote Transmitters may be used in one of three operating modes: Ungo Standard Mode,
Convenience Mode, and Driver Door Priority Mode.
Ungo Standard Mode (default)
The MS5500 system is pre-programmed to operate in the Ungo Standard Mode. For ease of
understanding, any references made in this manual to the Remote Transmitter, are assuming that
the Transmitter Operating Mode is set to Ungo Standard Mode, unless otherwise stated.
Button 1 Arms and Disarms the system. This Button also locks and unlocks the doors when the
system is in Valet Mode.
Button 2 controls the system’s Auxiliary Function 1, which is normally used for activating a car’s
electric trunk release.
When Button 1 and 2 are pressed together, the system will Arm or Disarm silently (without chirp
confirmation).
As an option, your installer can set system to always arm without chirp confirmation. If this is done, then pressing
Buttons 1 and 2 together will Arm or Disarm the system with chirp confirmation.
The Mode Button will change the function of Buttons 1 and 2 each time it is pressed, allowing
Buttons 1 and 2 to control the system’s Auxiliary Function Outputs.
Note also that the LED on the transmitter changes color each time the Mode Button is pressed
to indicate the current function of Buttons 1 and 2. The LED will stay on for 5 seconds, then turn
off, returning Buttons 1 and 2 to their default settings.
It is also possible to set individual Remote Transmitters to arm and disarm the system using any
of the Transmitters function Buttons, which is extremely useful when a Transmitter is used to
control multiple systems. See Adding a Remote Transmitter into the System.

The following diagram illustrates how the Remote Transmitter controls the functions of the
system when used in the Ungo Standard Mode:
Convenience Mode
This configuration allows the MS5500 to operate with separate Arm and Disarm buttons for
greater convenience and ease of use.
Button 1 Arms the system. This Button also locks the doors when the system is in Valet Mode.
Button 2 Disarms the system. Pressing Button 2 again activates the system’s Auxiliary Function
1. This Button also unlocks the doors when the system is in Valet Mode.
If the system is Armed, pressing Button 2 will Disarm the system.
If the system is Disarmed, pressing Button 2 will activate the Auxiliary Function 1.
If the system is in Valet and the doors, pressing Button 2 will unlock the doors.
The following diagram illustrates how the Remote Transmitter controls the functions of the
system when used in the Convenience Mode:
Driver Door Priority Mode*
This configuration adds the security of unlocking only the driver’s door when the system is
Disarmed. Pressing the Disarm button again will unlock all remaining doors.
Button 1 Arms the system. This Button also locks the doors when the system is in Valet Mode.

Button 2 Disarms the system and at the same time activates Auxiliary Function 1 (which unlocks
the driver’s door). This Button also unlocks the doors when the system is in Valet Mode.
If the system is Armed, pressing Button 2 will Disarm the system and unlock the driver’s door only.
If the system is Disarmed, pressing Button 2 within 10 seconds after disarming will unlock all remaining doors.
If the system is in Valet and the doors are locked, pressing Button 2 will unlock the driver’s door. Pressing Button
2 again within 10 seconds after disarming will unlock all remaining doors.

system when used in the Driver Door Priority Mode:
*Extra parts and/or labor may be required to properly utilize this mode. See your Authorized Ungo Dealer for details.
Two Car Operation
If you want to control two or more Ungo Security systems by a single Remote Transmitter, the
unused functions of the Remote Transmitter can be set up by your dealer to operate another
Ungo Security system, giving you the convenience of operating multiple vehicles from a single
Remote Transmitter.
When set for two car operation, the Remote Transmitters will function as in the example below:
