Timer Mode
Press and buttons simultaneously
There are two types of timer modes and the system can be programmed to perform either one or the other, the factory setting is
timed mode. In timed mode, the system allows you to keep the engine
warm by automatically activating the remote start every three hours for
a maximum of six starting cycles.
The temperature mode checks every three hours to see if the temperature threshold of 0°F has been met or exceeded. If met or exceeded,
the vehicle then remote starts and runs for the programmed time, and
will check again three hours after shutting off. However, if the thresh-
old isn't met or exceeded, then the remote start does not activate, but
will check again later after another three hours have elapsed.
Note: The timer mode features are activated and deactivated the
same way, with the temperature mode automatically exiting after 18
hours.
To activate:
1. Park the vehicle and set the parking brake.
2. Press the
and buttons simultaneously.
3. The parking lights flash slowly four times.
4. The remote start activates and runs for the set duration. The system remains remote started unless shut down by pressing the
button on the remote.
5. Once the remote start shuts down, the vehicle will start every
three hours for a maximum of six cycles or until timer mode is
canceled by turning on the ignition or activating any of the shutdowns (the parking lights flash slowly four times to confirm Timer
Mode is exited).
To deactivate timer mode, turn on the ignition or activate any of the
remote start shutdowns (arming and disarming the system or pressing
the
and buttons on the remote will not exit the timer mode).
The parking lights flash four times confirming timer mode is exiting.
Note: The feature exits (if active) when the vehicle is driven, so if timer
mode is desired, it needs to be activated again.

Short-run turbo mode keeps the engine running for a programmable
period of time after arriving at your destination (check with your authorized Directed dealer for available run times). This allows the system's
timer to conveniently cool down the turbo after you have left the vehicle.
To activate:
1. Park the vehicle and set the parking brake.
2. Remove your foot from the brake pedal and leave the engine
running.
3. Press the
4. The parking lights flash to indicate the remote start has entered the
short-run turbo mode.

Optional Rear Window Defogger
When the feature is programmed on, the rear defogger automatically
activates during the remote start sequence if the temperature at the control module is below 55°F. If the temperature is greater than 55°F at
the control module when the remote start is activated, the rear defogger
does not turn on.

the button is released the vehicle control indicator will change.
While the system is armed, if the Warn Away or full alarm is triggered
on any of the programmed vehicles, that vehicle’s number will be displayed and the LCD will display that vehicle’s status. To change back to
the original vehicle that was selected press the
button for one second
and release until the desired vehicle number is shown.
For example, if the remote was originally on vehicle number 1 and a
trigger page was received for vehicle number 2, the remote will show
the alarm trigger and show number 2 on the display. After clearing the
page, you can select the desired vehicle to be controlled.
Note: This feature is only applicable to the 2-way remote control.
Paging Features
The control module sends a page to the remote as confirmation of a
received command, or alarm system status.
When the remote receives a page notification, it beeps or vibrates and
the alarm status, armed/locked or disarmed/unlocked, (the lock or unlock icon) appears on the LCD. If the alarm has been triggered, the
remote LCD displays the zone triggered. To clear the alarm page, press
any button on the remote. The LCD information is also cleared.
Note: You will not be able to send a command, until the alarm page
is cleared.
The system can be programmed to arm/lock itself au to mat i cal ly (called
pas sive arming/locking). If the system is programmed for passive arming/
locking, it will automatically arm/lock 30 seconds after the ignition is
turned off and the system detects that you have left the vehicle by opening
and closing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30-sec ond passive arming/locking count down, the status LED will flash twice as fast as it does
when the system is armed/locked. At the 20-second point of the countdown, the siren/horn will sound to indicate that the system is about to
arm/lock. At the 30-second point, the parking lights will flash to indicate
that the system is armed/locked.
Note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switch-protected
trunk or hood) is open, the system will not passively arm/lock (unless forced passive arming/locking is programmed on). See "Forced
passive arming" under "Programming Options" on page 27 of this
guide.
Warn Away® Response (security only)
A Warn Away Response consists of an alarm page along with the
responses described below.
• Shock (impact) Sensor - Light impacts to the vehicle will flash the
vehicle lights and sound the siren/horn for a few seconds.
• 2-way Remote Control Notification - Ten quick beeps (or one vibration).
• The 2-way remote control will enter Page Recognition Mode and
operate alarm page alerts.
A Triggered Response can be activated by any of the triggers listed below and consists of an alarm page along with the response described
for each trigger. The default Triggered Response duration is 30 seconds
but can be programmed from 1-180 seconds by your installer.
• Shock Sensor Trigger - Heavy impacts to the vehicle will instantly
sound the siren/horn and flash the lights for the programmed duration and report Zone 2.
• Door Trigger - If a door is opened the siren/horn will sound and
lights flash for three seconds, then the siren/horn will sound continuously and the lights will flash for the programmed duration and
report Zone 3. The three seconds allow the user time to disarm/
unlock the system with a minimum of noise should a door be
opened inadvertently while the system is armed/locked.
• Hood Trigger - Opening the hood will sound the siren/horn, flash
the lights for the programmed duration, and report Zone 6.
• Trunk Trigger - Opening the trunk (if connected) will instantly sound
the siren/horn and flash the lights for the programmed duration
and report Zone 1.
• Ignition Trigger - Turning on the ignition key will trip the same progressive re sponse as the door trigger and report Zone 5.
When a Triggered Response is activated the 2-way remote control
will:
• Repeat four quick beeps (or vibrate) for 15 seconds.
• The full trigger alert icon will turn on for 15 seconds.
Multi-Level Security Arming allows you to select which of the security
system’s inputs or sensors are active, or are bypassed when the system
is armed (See the "Table of zones" on page 23 of this guide).

system is armed, and then once more to indicate that the ig ni tion is on.
The system will not respond to any input except the door triggers, and
the starter kill relay (if installed) will not be activated. Once you have
on the remote control for two seconds while the vehicle is
arrived at your des ti na tion, the system will disarm when the ignition is
turned off. The siren/horn will sound twice and the LED will then stop
flashing. The system can also be disarmed at any time by pressing
High Security Disarm (security only)
High Security Disarm makes it possible to silence and reset the system
when it is triggering, without disarming. If the system is triggered, and
the siren sounds for longer than six seconds, pressing the

System (Emergency) Override
If your remote control is lost or damaged, you can manually disarm your
vehicle security system or disable the optional starter kill. To disarm or
disable the system without a remote control, you must have the vehicle’s
ignition key.
To disarm/disable the system:
1. Turn the ignition to the ON position.
2. Press and release the control center button the preset number of
times (one to five times) within 15 seconds (the factory default setting is 1 press). After five seconds, the sys tem will disarm/disable.
If the system does not disarm/disable, you may have waited too
long. Start over by turning the ignition off and on.
Number of Presses_____________________________________
Important: The control center button can be programmed to respond from one to five presses for the disarm/disable function.
You must check with the installer to verify the programming for
your individual unit.
Valet Mode
You can prevent your system from automatically arming/locking and
trig ger ing by using Valet Mode. This is very useful when washing the
ve hi cle or having it serviced. In Valet Mode, the system/starter kill will
not arm/enable, even with the remote control, but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk re lease, etc.) will continue to work nor mal ly.
To enter or exit Valet Mode:
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. Turn the ignition off.
3. Press and release the control center button within 10 seconds.
To enter or exit Valet Mode using the remote control:
1. Open any vehicle door.
2. Press
3. Press
The status LED lights solidly if you are en ter ing Valet Mode, and goes
off when you exit Valet Mode.

and then press again.
Note: The 2-way remote flashes the
ing valet mode and flashes the
for three seconds when enter-
for three seconds and beeps twice
when exiting valet mode. It does not offer arm/disarm confirmations
when the system is in valet mode.
This feature allows you to remotely start and run your vehicle for a
pro gram ma ble period of time. This makes it possible to warm up the
engine, as well as adjust the interior tem per a ture of the ve hi cle with
the climate control system. If interior heating or cooling is desired, the
climate controls must be preset, and the fan blower must be set to the
desired level prior to remote starting the vehicle.
Warning! (1) Never remote start your vehicle when
the keys are in the ignition, except when performing
Pit Stop mode, and (2) Never start the vehicle if it
is not in PARK or NEUTRAL. (3) Do not activate the
remote start if the vehicle has a manual transmission.
To remote start the vehicle:
• Ensure the parking brake is set, press
once (or the amount of times the system has been programmed to
activate the remote start, see "Remote Start" on page 8).
The parking lights flash to confirm that the vehicle will attempt to
start. With gas vehicles the engine starts four seconds after the
parking lights flash. With diesel vehicles the engine starts when
the WAIT-TO-START indicator on the dashboard goes out or the
programmed delay has ended.
Once the vehicle has started, it runs for the pre- pro gram med period of time (either 12, 24, or 60 minutes; See Programming Options section) or until a shutdown input is trig gered.

Warning! It is unsafe to operate a vehicle’s motor in
a garage or other closed off area. Breathing the exhaust from the vehicle is hazardous to your health.
Never activate the remote start in an enclosed space.
1. Insert the ignition key and turn it to the On position.
2. Press the brake pedal.
3. Disengage the parking brake.
4. Place the vehicle in gear and drive to your destination.
Note: If the brake pedal is pressed or the parking brake is disengaged
before the key is in the ON position, the engine will shut down.
While the vehicle is running during remote start operation, the system
monitors the ve hi cle and automatically shuts down the engine if the
system receives any of the following:
• The brake pedal is pressed
• The hood is opened
• The shutdown toggle switch is put into the Off position
• The parking brake is disengaged
• Runtime (12, 24, or 60 minutes) expires
• The remote start activation procedure from the remote is repeated.
Pit Stop Mode
The Pit Stop mode feature allows the vehicle to remain running after the
key has been removed from the ignition. This feature is useful for occasions when you wish to exit and lock the vehicle for short periods of
time, but would like to leave the motor running and the climate controls
on.
To perform Pit Stop mode:
1. Before turning off the engine, ensure that the parking brake is set.
Press and release
on the remote the amount of times the system
has been programmed to activate the remote start (or press and
release the optional momentary switch). Then wait five seconds.
2. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position, the engine will continue
running.
3. Exit and secure the vehicle
4. When returning to the vehicle simply disarm the system and follow
the previous "When you are ready to drive the vehicle" information.
Note: If you are away from the vehicle for an extended amount of time,
the remote start will shut off after the programmed runtime expires or
when a shutdown input is received (see the previous Remote Start section for a complete list of shutdown inputs).
This feature will not work if the brake pedal is being pressed or the
parking brake is disengaged.
Nuisance Prevention Circuitry
Your system has Directed’s Nuisance Prevention Circuitry® (NPC). It
prevents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin
switch es or en vi ron men tal con di tions such as thunder, jack ham mers, or
airport noise.
For example, if the alarm triggers three times within a 60 - minute period and each time the same sensor or switch triggers the alarm, NPC
will interpret those triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, NPC
ignores, or by pass es, that sensor or switch (along with any other sensors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes.
If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the system while it is being bypassed, the 60 - minute bypass period starts over. This ensures that a
sensor that continually triggers will remain bypassed.
Doors are covered by NPC differently - if the alarm is triggered by an
open door for three full cycles, the doors are bypassed until the trigger
ceases.
NPC is On/Off programmable, except doors are always covered
whether on or off. See your dealer and the Programming section of this
guide for more information.
Arming and disarming the system does not reset this function. In order to
reset a bypassed zone, the same zone must not trigger for 60 minutes,
or when ignition is turned on. If testing your system, it is important to
remember that the NPC programming can cause zones to be bypassed
and appear to stop working. If five chirps are heard when disarming,
NPC has been engaged. If you wish to clear the NPC memory, turn
the ignition key on.
Power Saver Mode
Your system will automatically enter Power Saver Mode while armed or
in Valet® Mode, after a period of time in which no operation has been
performed. This lowers the current draw to the vehicle’s battery. Power
Saver Mode takes over under the following conditions:
• Power Saver when the system is armed: After the system has
been armed for 24 hours, the control center LED will flash
at half its normal rate, decreasing the system’s current draw.
• Power Saver in Valet Mode: When the system enters Valet Mode
the control center LED illuminates steadily. If the vehicle is not used
(ignition is not turned on) for a period of one hour while the system
is in Valet Mode, the LED will shut off. If the system remains in
Valet Mode, the LED will come back on the next time the ignition
is turned on and then back off.
The microprocessor at the heart of your security system is constantly
mon i tor ing all of the switches and sensors that are connected to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from disabling
the entire system. The mi cro pro ces sor will also record and report any
triggers that occurred during your absence. Refer to the System Status
Chirps and Table of Zones charts for diagnostic information.
Arming Diagnostics
If the system is armed while an input is active - door open, sensor triggering - the unit will chirp once when arming and then one more time
a few seconds later. This is called Bypass Notification.
Bypass Notification will not occur when using Silent Mode or if chirps
have been programmed OFF. The security system will continually ignore
the zone that was active until the input stops. Three seconds after the
input stops, the system monitors that input normally. For example, if your
vehicle has interior light exit delay, and you arm it before the interior
light goes out, you may hear Bypass Notification chirps. Once the light
shuts off, the doors are mon i tored normally.
Disarming Diagnostics
Extra disarm chirps are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard when
disarming, the system was triggered in your absence. If five chirps are
heard, a zone was triggered so many times that Nui sance Prevention®
Circuitry has bypassed that zone (see "Nuisance prevention circuitry"
on page 20 of this guide).
The control center LED indicates which zone was involved (see "Table
of Zones" on page 23). The system retains this information in its
memory, and continues to chirp four or five times each time it is disarmed, until the next time the ignition key is turned on.
Table of Zones
A zone is represented by the number of control center LED flashes used
by the system to identify a particular type of input. Standard input assignments are listed in the following table, along with spaces to write in
any optional sensors or switches that have been installed.
Zone DescriptionDealer installed options
1Trunk Pin
2Instant trigger: a heavier impact detected by the
shock sensor
3Door switch trigger
4Instant trigger: for optional sensors
5Ignition trigger
6Hood Pin
Interpreting Zone Diagnostics
Warn Away responses are not reported by arming or disarming diagnostics. If you receive a Bypass notification when arming or a Tamper
Alert notification when disarming, look at the LED in the vehicle. Active
or triggered zones will be indicated by a pattern of blinks by the LED.
For example: If zone 3 was active or triggered, the LED will blink three
times with a two-second pause. Then it will blink three times again, and
repeat until the ignition is turned on.
Your system stores the last two triggered zones in memory. If your system
has been triggered but the LED has been reset by turning on the ignition, your dealer can still recall the last two zones that were triggered.
Contact your dealer for details.
Press and hold the button on the back of the remote control until one
long beep sounds. You can now customize the remote’s response feedback. Note: If no buttons are pressed within five seconds, programming mode is exited; the remote sounds two beeps.

To exit programming mode:
The LCD remote control will exit programming mode after five seconds
of inactivity and will emit two long beeps.
Owner Recognition is a feature avail able exclusively from Directed. Using the Directed Bitwriter®, a hand-held programming tool, your dealer
can program many of the system settings. The programmer makes it
possible to program different settings for each remote control that is
used with the system. Then, when ev er a specific remote control is used,
the system will recall the settings assigned to that remote control. Owner
Rec og ni tion lets up to four users of the system have different settings that
meet their specific needs. It is almost like having four separate alarms
in your vehicle, one for each user.
Owner Recognition cannot be programmed without a Directed Bitwriter
and the necessary soft ware. Check with your dealer for more information.
Rapid Resume Logic
This Directed system will store its current state to non-volatile memory.
If power is lost and then reconnected, the system will recall the stored
state from memory. This means if the unit is in Valet Mode and the battery is dis con nect ed for any reason, such as servicing the vehicle, when
the battery is re con nect ed the unit will still be in Valet Mode. This applies to all states of the system including arm, disarm, and Valet Mode.
Programming options control what your system does during normal oper a tion, and require few or no additional parts. However, some may
require additional in stal la tion labor.
The following is a list of the program settings, with the factory settings
in Bold:
• Active arming (only with the remote) or passive arming (au to mat ic
arming 30- seconds after the last door has been closed).
• Arming/disarming confirmation siren chirps On or off.
• The ignition controlled door lock feature On or Off: With this feature
on, the doors will lock three seconds after the ignition is turned on,
and the doors are closed, and unlock when the ignition is turned
off. With this feature off, the system will not lock the doors when the
ignition is turned on and will not unlock the doors when the ignition
is turned off. Ignition lock and unlock are independent features
and can be programmed separately, when using the Bitwriter.
• Passive door locking (with passive arming) or active door
locking (only when arming with the remote). Passive locking allows the vehicle’s doors to lock when the security system passively arms (after the 30 second countdown). This
feature only works if passive arming has been programmed.
When programmed for passive arming and active lock, if the
system is disarmed without a door being opened, the system will
re-lock the doors when it passively rearms.
• Panic mode en abled/dis abled with the ig ni tion on: Some
states have laws against siren ca pa bil i ty in a mov ing vehicle.
• Forced passive arming On or off: If your system is programmed for
passive arming and the forced pas sive arming feature has been
pro grammed on, the system will passively arm af ter one hour, even
if a protected entry has been left open. This feature is use ful if a
door has been left ajar when leaving the vehicle. Forced pas sive
arming ensures that the security sys tem will be armed in every
situation.
When the system passively arms after one hour, the entry point that
has been left open, and anything connected to the same zone, is
bypassed and cannot trigger the system. However, the re main ing
inputs to the system are fully operational.
• Automatic Engine Dis able (AED) on or Off: The pur pose of this fea-
ture is to protect the vehicle from being stolen at all times, re gardless of whether or not the alarm is armed. If AED is programmed
on, the starter of the vehicle will be dis abled 30 sec onds after the
ignition is turned off. Once the key is turned off, the in-vehicle LED
will flash slowly (one-half its normal armed rate) to indicate the
AED arming cycle. Thirty seconds later, the starter of the vehicle
will be dis abled.
To start the vehicle, it will be necessary to disarm the system with
the remote. It is also possible to disarm the AED feature by turning the ignition key to the RUN position and pressing the Control
center button the programmed number of times. AED is disabled
when the system is in Valet Mode. This feature only functions if the
Failsafe® Starter Kill relay has been installed.
• Full trigger response 30 or 60 seconds: This determines how long
the full triggered sequence lasts. Some states have laws regulating
how long a security system can sound before it is considered a nuisance. If your installer is programming the security system with the
Directed Bitwriter, the full triggered response can be programmed
for any duration ranging from 1 to 180 seconds.
• Nuisance Prevention Circuitry On or off: Please refer to the NPC
section of this manual for a complete explanation of how NPC operates. If NPC is pro grammed off, the se cu ri ty sys tem will respond
to inputs from any sensor in defi nite ly.
Because many states have laws regulating security systems, program ming NPC off may cause your sys tem to violate state laws.
• Progressive door trigger On or off: When the system is armed and
a door is opened, the system responds with ten chirps prior to begin ning the full triggered sequence. If an instant trigger is desired,
the progressive door trigger can be pro grammed off.
• Valet pulse count: The number of presses of the Control center but-
ton required to disarm the security system or AED, the system can

Audio Sensor: Metal on glass, cracking glass, and breaking glass
each produce dis tinc tive acoustic signatures. The 506T audio sensor
uses a microphone to pick up sounds, and then using pro pri etary acoustic software, analyzes the sounds to determine if the glass was struck.
Backup Battery: The 520T keeps the system armed, triggers the alarm
and keeps the starter kill active if main battery power is dis con nect ed.
Field Disturbance Sensor: An invisible dome of coverage is es tab lished
by installing the 508D “radar” sensor. Your security system can then
react to any intrusions into this field with the triggered sequence.
Headlight and Parking Light Automation: The 545T Nite-Lite will au tomat i cal ly turn on your parking and headlights when it gets dark. In addition, the 545T will turn your headlights on whenever the windshield
wipers are used. A remote control function can also be used to turn on
your parking and headlights for a programmed time.
Power Trunk Release: The trunk release output of the system can oper ate a factory power release for the ve hi cle’s trunk or hatch. (An additional relay may be re quired.) If the factory release is not power ac tivat ed, then Directed’s 522T trunk release solenoid can often be added.
Power Window Control: Automatic power window control is pro vid ed
with the 529T and 535T systems.
Tilt Sensor: The 507M tilt sensor can be added to your system to protect your vehicle when its parked. An alarm is triggered if the vehicle
is lifted, to protect expensive rims.
Ultrasonic Sensor: Provides a field of protection inside your vehicle, the
509U Ultrasonic sensor, protects your belongings.
This system needs no specific maintenance beyond remote control battery replacement. The 2-way remote control is powered by one 1.5V
AAA battery. The 1-way remote control is powered by either two 3V,
CR2016 batteries or one 3V CR2032 (see back of remote for details).
Battery Level Indicator, 2-way
The Battery Level indicator has four level indicators that serve as a visual
indication of battery charge. When the battery reaches a low charge
level that requires replacement, the remote control generates a single
notification chirp, and the Battery Level indicator flashes continuously.
