Congratulations on the purchase of your state-of-the-art vehicle security
system. This system has been designed to provide years of trouble-free op-
eration. Due to the complexity of this system, it must be installed by an
authorized dealer only. Installation of this product by anyone other than
an authorized dealer voids the warranty. All dealers are provided with
preprinted dealer certificates to verify that they are authorized.
This owner’s guide should help you to get the most out of your system.
Please take the time to read it prior to using the system.

system maintenance
This system needs no specific maintenance beyond 2-way remote
control battery replacement. The 2-way remote is powered by a 1.5V
AAA battery.
Low Battery Notification
If the battery is low (and this feature is programmed On) the 2-way
remote will emit 2 long beeps 5-seconds after a transmission is
completed. The 2 long beeps will repeat every 25seconds up to 3 times
(or until a 2-way remote button is pressed).
Battery Replacement
Gently pull the end of the battery door away from the top of the remote
control then slide the door up to expose the battery and remove the
expired battery. Place the new battery into the remote control observing
the correct polarity. When power is returned the remote control will
light all icons and generate melodies (representing all beeper tones).
your warranty
Your warranty registration must be returned and the bar code serial
number must not be removed. If the warranty registration is not
returned, you do not have a warranty. It is also necessary to keep your
proof of purchase, which reflects that the product was installed by an
authorized dealer. Make sure that you receive the warranty registration
from your dealer.

The 2-way remote control buttons are used to send commands to the

and Buttons
An optional auxiliary convenience or expansion function that you have
added to your system can be activated by pressing these buttons simul-
taneously.
The auxiliary output controls __________________________.
rreemmoottee ooppeerraattiioonn
The remote start system operates at 434 MHz and incorporates Directed’s
proprietary XHF2 out-board technology transceiver. The high frequency
combined with Binary Data communication achieves superior range with two-
way communication.
system signal paging features
A page is the signal the control module sends to the remote control as
confirmation of receipt of a command or alarm system status.
When the remote control receives a page it will generate a page notifica-
tion to the user (notifications are audible beeps) and the LED Icons will
display the current system status.
Command Page
When a command (arm/disarm, or auxiliary channel) from the remote
control is sent and received, the system will send a command page
back to confirm receipt.
➜

Alarm Page
If the alarm system is triggered while armed, an Alarm Page will be sent
to the remote control. When the remote receives an Alarm Page, the LED
icons will display the alarm system status information and the remote
control will generate beeps.
An Alarm Page alert is a series of 10 or 4 rapid beeps and the Red LED
will illuminate. This will repeat every 100 seconds to alert the user that
the alarm system was triggered and will continue until the alarm page
is cleared.
If the shock sensor or optional sensor has triggered the alarm the
remote will display the alarm page with 6 Red LED flashes and 10 rapid
beeps.
If the trunk, door, ignition, or hood triggered the alarm the remote will
display the alarm page with the Red LED illuminating for 3-seconds and
4 rapid beeps (repeated 5 times)
Page Recognition (Acknowledgement)
To clear a page alert/notification, quickly press any button on the
remote control. This can be performed at any time during or after the
page notification has occurred.
The remote control will not send a command to the system at this time;
it will only clear future repeats of the page notification. The next time
a button is pressed on the remote control it will send a command to
the system.

out of range notification
If a command is issued from the remote, but the remote is beyond the
range of the vehicle to receive the command, the remote responds with
2 sets of 3 quick beeps and the Green LED will flash 6-times.

programmed On from the factory and can be programmed Off if they
are not desired. When programmed Off the remote will only flash the
LEDs as notification of a command page or an alarm page.

battery notification On. Two beeps is low battery notification Off. The
Low battery Beeps are programmed On from the factory and can be
programmed Off if they are not desired. When programmed Off the

Page notification
The remote control can be programmed to notify the user of a page
(audibly beeping if the vehicle’s status changes, e.g. door unlocked,
engine started, vehicle violation, etc.). Press to select page
On/Off. One beep is page On, Two beeps is page Off. When programmed
off the remote will not give any notification that a page was received
from the vehicle.
To exit programming mode
The remote control will exit programming mode after 2-seconds
of inactivity and will emit 2 long beeps.

The buttons used in the instructions in this manual correspond to the
standard configuration. Remember, this is not the only way your 2-way
remote may be set up. It can be custom configured to meet your
needs.
active arming
You can arm the system by pressing of your 2-way remote for one
second. When the system arms, from the vehicle you will hear a short
siren sound, or chirp, and see the parking lights flash once. If the
power door locks are controlled by the system, the doors will also lock.
While the system is armed, the in-vehicle’s status LED will flash approx-
imately once per second, indicating that the system is actively protect-
ing your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming and note that
