TRANSCEIVER / PAGER-REMOTE

PAGER / REMOTE TRANSCEIVER:

The hand-held remote transceiver is used to send and
receive information from the vehicle. The Control Module
transmits High Frequency FM signals from the vehicle to your
over long distances. Your range will vary depending on
location, terrain, and local RF noise/interference. This
system is not guaranteed to page you if you are behind
concrete walls, underground, in a large structure, or in an
area with high levels of electronic interference. Handle the
pager/remote with care if the LCD display and/or the
electronics may be damaged if subjected to abuse. The AAA
Cell 1.5V alkaline battery can easily be replaced by sliding
open the battery access door on the back of the remote.
Battery life will vary depending on usage. The LCD screen
will display a low battery icon when the battery is low. For
more on range, see “Range Questions” on page 18.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - ALARM

Active Arming / Locking:

Press button #1 (Lock symbol) on the transceiver. The System will arm emit one siren
chirp, one light flash, and the LED will begin to flash. Power locks will lock (if
equipped). Starter disable circuit will turn on. LCD Pager will beep once while
displaying a Down Arrow and a Lock symbol followed by the CSP logo. After a short
delay to allow the vehicle and electronics to settle, the system will be completely armed.

Disarming: / Unlocking
Press button #2 (Unlock symbol) on the transceiver. System will disarm and confirm
with two siren chirps, two light flashes, and the LED will turn off. Power locks will Unlock
and Interior Dome light will turn on (if installed with these optional features). LCD Pager
will beep twice while displaying an Up Arrow and an Unlock symbol followed by the CSP
logo.

Alarm Triggers:

If there is an intrusion into the vehicle, a hard impact to the body, or the ignition is turned on the alarm will
sound and flash the lights for 1 minute. After 1 minute, the trigger cycle will automatically stop and alarm will
remain armed to continue protecting the vehicle. If a door is left open after an intrusion then the unit will cycle
a maximum of 2 minutes and continue to protect the other un-tampered or unopened zones.

LCD Remote Paging / Zone Violations:

When the system is triggered, the alarm sends a paging signal to the remote. If you are within range, you will
receive a violation paging signal which consists of a vibration followed by 6 audible beeps to notify you the
vehicle has been tampered with.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - ALARM

Disarming While Tripped (Triggered):

Disarming the System while it is triggering requires TWO presses of the #2 Unlock Button. The first press of
Button #2 Resets the alarm cycle only (system still armed) while a second press will disarm/unlock the system.

Selective Silent Arming/Disarming:

To Arm or Disarm the system without siren
chirps, press and release both Buttons #2
(Unlock) and #4 (Start) at the same time.
System will Arm or Disarm without siren chirps.
Flashing lights and LED will be the only
indicators of Arm/Disarm status. The LCD will
Display a musical note with an “X” when the
system is armed or disarmed without a chirp.

Prior intrusion Alert

This system will notify you if the alarm was tripped while you where away. Upon disarming, the two normal
disarm chirps will be heard then the system will emit 4 additional siren chirps. Check your vehicle for any
signs of a break in or tampering. Also see LED Diagnostics Section to determine the cause of the trigger.

Remote Panic Protection

To sound the alarm in an emergency situation or to draw attention to your vehicle, press
and hold Button #1 (Lock) for at least 3 seconds until the siren sounds. Press Button #2
(Unlock) to reset panic mode. The LCD pager/remote will display a “P” and emit 8
beeps when the panic mode is triggered.

Selective Shock Sensor Disable

To arm the alarm and bypass shock sensor protection, press Button #1 as normal then
press and release Button #1 and #2 together within 2 seconds. You will hear 3 extra
siren chirps indicating shock sensor bypass for this arming cycle only. This feature can be used when parking
near railroad tracks, airports, or area with excessive loud machinery or noise to prevent the nuisance of
unnecessary false alarms.

Open Door Alert / Bypass

Upon arming, this system will warn you if a door is left open. The LCD pager will vibrate and beep (15X’s)
along with displaying the open zone on your LCD screen. This zone will automatically be bypassed until
closed, otherwise the alarm will continue to protect all other zones.
