Getting Started

Your Responder HD remote is powered by an internal rechargeable battery that can only be serviced by an authorized Directed dealer. Due to transit and storage time prior to your purchase, the battery charge may have depleted. To ensure proper operation, check the battery level and connect the battery charger if not fully charged. See Battery Information and Status Screen Icons sections for more information about the battery.

Charging the remote control:

Plug the AC adapter into a 110V AC outlet. Insert the mini-USB 1. connector into the port on the remote control. The Status screen Info Center then indicates the remote control is charging. While the Status screen is off, the blue transmit LED will continue 2. blinking until fully charged (the remote control also remains functional to command the system or access the Status screen to check the battery level). Once fully charged the remote control is ready for use. Discon-3. nect the mini-USB end from the remote control ﬁrst and then the AC adapter from the AC outlet.

Note

Sensor triggers: The onboard shock sensor can distinguish minor im-

pacts from major impacts to the vehicle exterior. Minor impacts causes the system to emit a Warn-away output by chirping the siren and ﬂashing the parking lights for 3 seconds. Major impacts caused for example by a forcible entry attempt, results in a Full Trigger output. The siren sounds and the lights ﬂash for 30 seconds or longer. Both Warnaway and Full Triggers send a message to the remote control.

Point of entry triggers: Opening the Hood or Trunk causes a Full Trigger output, while opening a Door or turning on the Ignition causes the the siren to chirp 3 seconds before beginning the Full Trigger output. This 3 second delay allows time to disarm and silence the siren in case of accidental trigger. The Full Trigger message is still sent to the remote.

Note

re-arming the system should be placed into Valet Mode until a remote is available .

Trigger Zone Fault Report

When armed by remote command the system runs a status check of the alarm trigger zones. Faulty zones (usually caused by dome light delay or open trunk) are bypassed and reported via the control center LED and remote, while all other trigger zones remain active and are monitored to protect the vehicle. Should a faulty zone self correct (dome light turns off) it becomes active and is then monitored normally. The siren chirps once again a few seconds following the arming chirps as an audible alert, the control center LED ﬂashes in groups to indicate the zone number. The remote emits a fault tone, displays a screen for each faulty zone, and then updates the Sensor status icon in the Status screen. Press any button within 20 seconds of the fault tone to review the report without performing a command.

Alarm Trigger Report

The most recent alarm triggers (if any) are reported when the alarm is disarmed via the remote control, siren chirps, parking light and control center LED ﬂashes. The siren chirps 4 times (or 5 times if NPC On*), the lights ﬂash 3 times, and the control center LED ﬂashes in groups to indicate the last two zones that were triggered (see Table of Zones). The remote control Disarm output is replaced by screens and beeps that identify the two most recent triggers.

Last Trigger Report

The Last Trigger report displays the two most recent alarm triggers depending on the system state when requested. When disarmed, the report will display screens for the two most recent Alarm Zone triggers since the vehicle was last driven. When armed, the report will display screens for two most recent Alarm Zone triggers since the system was armed.

The last trigger report clears when ignition is turned on.

Note

Nuisance Prevention (NPC)

NPC monitors all alarm zones and, if any are triggered excessively, bypasses them until corrected. If a point of entry (trunk, hood, door) is left open following a forced entry, it is bypassed. It becomes active again only after being closed.

Sensors that trigger excessively are bypassed and reported to the remote via Sensor Status icon in the Status Screen, and by NPC On screens that are displayed during the Disarm Trigger and Last Trigger reports.

Bypassed sensors automatically reset after one hour and after the vehicle is driven. Disarming then re-arming the alarm does not reset bypassed sensors.

Remote and System Operations

Passive Arming*

Park and exit the vehicle, after the doors are closed the Passive arming countdown begins. The led ﬂashes quickly and upon reaching 20 seconds the siren then chirps once. At 30 seconds the system arms itself.

Anytime before the system arms you can re-enter the vehicle or open the trunk to load or unload items and, after closing passive arming resumes.

To stay secure in case of accidental disarming the system, if a door is not opened within 30 seconds the system re-arms itself and locks the doors.

Auto Re-arming*

Auto re-arm ensures the vehicle stays protected if it is not entered after disarming by remote control. After disarming by remote, the alarm automatically re-arms itself (and locks the doors if programmed on) in 30 seconds. Open any point of entry to stop the re-arm until the next disarm by remote.

Onetime Bypass*

Turn the ignition On for one to three seconds and then Off. The siren chirps once to conﬁrm one-time bypass is enabled. One-time bypass can be used to temporarily bypass the Passive arming operation for one cycle. It also bypasses the comfort closure and auxiliary channel outputs programmed to activate when arming. After the next disarm all operations return to normal.

Feature Details

* These features must be turned on by an authorized Directed dealer.

Valet Mode

Valet mode can be entered and exited by performing the Remote Valet command or manually using the vehicle key and the control button. When entered, the alarm functions are defeated while the convenience features still operate normally. Arm and Disarm commands lock and unlock the doors while the

Power Save

To reduce power consumption the control center status LED modiﬁes its output if the vehicle is parked for an extended period. If Armed the ﬂashing is reduced after 24 hours. When Valet mode is On, the LED turns off after 1 hour and resets each time the ignition is turned off.

Rapid Resume

If power is ever disconnected by a mechanic or thief, the system will resume the state it was in at the time of disconnection, when power is reconnected.

Automatic Remote Updates

The system sends a silent message to all remote controls after any major action has occurred. When the remote receives this message it updates the status screen icons. This way all users are able to quickly review the system status just by accessing the status screen.

Out of Range

Each time a command is performed the remote will expect a command response from the system. If a command response is not received the

OUT OF RANGE

screen and tone plays as an alert.

No Remote Output

Occasionally when a command is performed the remote may not generate a command response output or Out of Range output. This indicates that the system received the command but it was an incomplete command (e.g. Aux button pressed too short to activate the trunk release) or it was an illegal message (e.g. the command was corrupted due to local RF interference). These are temporary normal functions of the system and remote, perform the command again within 10 seconds to return to normal operation.

Battery Information (Responder HD)

The Responder HD remote control is powered by an internal rechargeable battery that can be serviced only through an authorized Directed Electronics dealer. The information and precautions in this section can help maximize your battery’s life and usage in providing your Responder HD remote control with many years of trouble free operation. The battery information for the 1way companion remote control can be found in the 1-way Companion Remote Control section of this manual.

Warnings! NEVER connect the supplied AC adapter to products other than the Responder HD remote control. It is a high current device designed speciﬁcally for rapid charging of the Responder HD battery and may cause severe damage or explosion when connected to any other products.

Charging the battery when the temperature is below 32°F (0°C) or above 113°F (45°C) may cause severe battery damage and/or reduce battery life. Avoid placing the remote control in areas exposed to extreme cold or heat (direct sunlight) when charging the battery.

Low Battery

After a command is performed the Responder HD and 1way companion remote controls check their battery level and, when the level requires attention, will begin generat-

Battery

ing alerts. Once the alerts begin they will continue to command the system for several days but should be charged at the earliest opportunity or failure to control the system may occur.

Low Battery Alerts

When disarming the system using a remote control with a low battery the siren will emit one additional chirp as an alert. If conﬁrmation chirps are programmed off, the system will still emit one chirp as an alert when disarming. The Responder HD remote control also interrupts each Status screen output and plays the

LOW BATTERY ON REMOTE

screen with several alert beeps.

Important

To preserve power at critically low battery levels the HD remote disables the color display, stops receiving messages from the system, and only performs basic commands. The beeps and blue transmit LED continues to operate while performing basic commands until the battery is charged.

Battery Life

The Responder HD remote control has many features that make it one of the most unique remote controls on the market today, including superior long range communication with the system. The default feature settings provide for excellent battery charge duration. However, to maximize this duration between charges, the following suggestions will help:

Turn the remote Off: When not in use and/or out of range of the s vehicle, the remote can be turned off in the Set animations to Trigger only: The animations that play during s commands can be turned off in the
