Installation Basics CM6300

If you are new to installing Firstech Series Remote Starts and / or Alarms, we highly recommended that you thoroughly review this manual to installing your first unit.

Key Points to Consider Before Installation:

You must code remotes to this system before anything will function. Program remotes by cycling the ignition ON / OFF five times within seven seconds and tap button 1 (half second) on the first remote, and then tap button 1 (half second) on the second remote.

RPS Touch (Touch Remote Paging Sensor):

The optional RPS that has four main functions; (1.) Status LED, (2.) Remote notification when triggered, (3.) Auto unlock/alarm disarm when a user specific 4 digit knock code is entered via tapping sensor through the windshield. (4.) You can also relock your vehicle if equipped with an RPS Touch sensor.

DAS Sensor:

The DAS sensor monitors forward movement for remote starting manual transmissions, dual stage impact, and auto adjusting tilt sensor. See the DAS Sensor section of this manual for details.

Supports 4 Pin and 6 Pin Antennas

The CM6300 supports both Firstech 4 Pin and 6 Pin antennas. This will work with all new RF kits as well as the current ones. Do not have antennas plugged into both ports on the CM6300 as the remotes will not function properly.

Supports Blade

The CM6300 supports the Blade AL and TB systems as well as 2 way data for Idatalink and Fortin bypass modules. The data port will also support full data connection with DroneMobile.

New Option Menus:

It is important to familiarize yourself with all the options as it will save time in most applications. For instance, Option 1-04 controls the double pulse unlock feature on all CM6 series control modules.

Programmable Output Channel (POC) Must have Option Programmer OP500

All control modules come with 9 programmable outputs that can be configured 19 different ways. It is important to familiarize yourself with the POCs as it will save time in most applications. Note that the CM6300

POCs are defaulted to Aux 1-5 as shown in the Special Option Group Table 2.

Internet updatable processors Visit www.firstechonline.com All CM6 series units are equipped with some of the most powerful processors available today. This flexibility allows for on-demand internet updating capabilities in the event of a version update or change. All CM6 series control modules use the same version firmware.

Remote Programming Routine CM6300

IMPORTANT: Any and all remotes must be coded to the control module prior to performing any and all

operations.

STEP 1: Activate programming mode by manually turning the vehicle’s key between the Ign On and Off (or the Acc & On positions) five times within 7 seconds. The vehicle’s parking lights will flash once with the successful completion of this step. (Note: this step also places the control module into Valet Mode)

STEP 2: Within a 2 second period after the 5th ignition cycle tap Button I on two way remotes or the Lock button on one-way remotes for 0.5 seconds. The parking lights will flash once to confirm the transmitter has been coded. Repeat for additional remotes, up to three.

Exiting Programming: Programming is a timed sequence. After 2 seconds

the parking lights will flash twice signaling the end of programming mode.

Programming Multiple Remotes: After the confirmation flash given in STEP 2, code additional remotes by tapping Button I on two way remotes or the Lock button on one way remotes. The parking lights will flash once confirming each additional remote. All systems can recognize up to three remotes.

Note: If you do not program any remotes and enter this sequence it will put the system into Valet Mode. Only the

keyless entry will work in Valet Mode. To exit Valet Mode just program

remote(s).

Placement and Use of Components CM6300

IMPORTANT: The placement and use of components are critical to the performance of this system.

Antenna and Cable

Firstech antennas are calibrated for horizontal installation at the top of the windshield. The cable that connects the antenna to the control module must be free from any pinches or kinks. Installing the antenna in areas other than the windshield may adversely affect the effective transmitting distance of the remotes.

Thermister (Temperature Sensor)

Every 2 Way LCD Firstech RF kit includes an optional thermister, which must be plugged into the 2 pin port of the control module for use. This plug is blue on the CM6300. The use of the thermister allows the 2 Way remote to display the vehicle’s interior temperature on the remote LCD (liquid crystal display) IMPORTANT: New thermister plugs are blue 2 pin connectors on the CM6 series but old white plug thermistors will still work.

Hood Pin

The hood pin switch triggers the alarm in the event the hood is opened while the system is armed.

Backup Battery

The backup battery input on the control module / brain is for any optional battery backup unit (FT-BATT BACKUP). The red positive lead (+) acts both as an input and charging output for a 12 Volt battery backup. A backup battery maintains basic alarm functionality when main vehicle power is lost. See the wiring schematic section for complete details. Do not power any other modules or DroneMobile off this port as it will not support a heavy load of current.

Common Procedures CM6300

Jumper Settings Caution: Jumper settings affect the polarity and use of certain outputs. If these jumpers are used

incorrectly, damage to the vehicle and/or control module may occur.

Jumper 1 (Door Trigger Polarity)

Determines the polarity of the door trigger input wire (red/white). In the default position the door trigger registers negative (-) triggers. To change to a positive (+) trigger, move the jumper.

Jumper 2 (Parking Light to Trunk Output)

Determines the output type (not polarity) of the green/white wire on connector one (CN1). In the default position it provides a positive (+) parking light output. To change to a positive (+) trunk output move the jumper. A negative (-) parking light output is found on connector three (CN3) and a negative (-) trunk output is found on connector four (CN4).

Setting Auxiliary Outputs on Connector 4 You Must Have the OP500 Option Programmer For your convenience certain wires are defaulted to Auxiliaries. However to set specific auxiliary outputs on the control module, you must choose two odd pin wires on the black 18 pin connector that you are not using. For example we will use POC 8 and 9.

STEP 1: Plug in OP500 and use the Right or Left Arrow Button to scroll through the menu to POC 8 and POC 9 on LCD Line 1.

STEP 2: Use the Up or Down Arrow Button to change the lower number on LCD Line 2 to 10 – Auxiliary 1 or 11- Auxiliary 2.

STEP 3: Scroll up the menu to Option 4-01 and 4-02 and set the options. Please see the Option Table for details.

Page 12

CM6300 Install Guide

STEP 4: The control modules have a secure auxiliary option 4-05. This requires you to tap button 4 before you tap button 2 for Aux 1 or button 3 for Aux 2. On 1-Way remotes you must hold the Trunk and Key/Start buttons for 2.5 seconds then tap the Trunk button for Aux 1 or the Key/Start button for Aux 2.

STEP 5: If you need to change the time settings of the outputs go to AU1 or AU2 on the OP500. LCD Line 2 is the timed output.

STEP 6: Hold the “W” Write button for 3 seconds to set all the options.

Version Diagnostics

All the new control modules come with the ability to check which firmware is on the module. This is accomplished by turning the ignition on. Then with 2 Way remotes you must hold buttons 1 and 4 together for 2.5 seconds. With the 1 Way remotes you must hold the Lock and Key/Start buttons together for 2.5 seconds.

Blade Cartridge Slot and Connector

The slot gives you the ability to use the Blade-AL and Blade-TB modules from Firstech and ADS. With these modules you can virtually eliminate all wire connections between your control module and bypass module. You only need to connect the main ignition harness and your required wires on the 20 pin Blade connector. For more information on how to program and wire the Blade please visit www.idatalink.com for the specific wiring diagram for that vehicle.

The CM6 Series Blade connector has a locking tab. Older blade harnesses will work but you must cut the notches on the black harness plug off.

Blade system includes:

1. Blade-AL or Blade-TB (NOTE: These modules are blank and must be flashed on your computer.)

2. 20 Pin locking wiring harness

3. 3 Pin harness used in some installs

IMPORTANT: Install diagrams are not included and must be downloaded from www.idatalink.com/ compustar. When flashing the Blade you can use the Y-Cable OP500 end and not CM4 Series end. ADS and Firstech recommends using the 4 pin RS232 cable to avoid confusion. Cartridge must be removed to flash the control module firmware. NOTE: The ADS-RNG C1, ADS-RNG C2, and ADS-RNG GM3 are not included and must be purchased separately. The 20 pin Blade connector comes only with the Blade cartridge and not the CM6 control modules.

WARNING: Manufacturer or seller assumes no responsibility for any injuries and/or damages caused by improper care of the product such as decomposition, conversion, and transform done by a user voluntarily.

WARNING: There should be no wiring routed around any pedals which can cause a driving hazard.

CM6300 Install Guide

1-04 Double Pulse Unlock - If enabled, this option will cause the system to double pulse the lock, unlock or both lock and unlock outputs. This can be used for vehicles that need two pulses to unlock or relock the doors.

1-07 Unlock / Disarm with Trunk Release - This option allows the user to configure or disable the unlock/

disarm outputs that trigger with the trunk release command.

1-08 Passive Mode - This option comes with default off. This feature controls what the lock wire does during passive mode. Passive must also be activated by the end user remote according to the

process specified in the remote user’s manual.

1-09 Ignition Controlled Locks - Setting 2 will lock the doors when the ignition is turned on and doors closed. Tach sensing mode must be used for setting 3. You must also turn this feature on

through the remote by tapping I+IV (2 Way remotes) or Lock+Key (1 Way remotes).

1-10 Auto Relock – This option will automatically relock/rearm at the selected timed if system has been

disarmed and the doors have not been opened.

1-11 Ignition / Accessory Upon Unlock (Negative Out) – This option will pulse the ignition wire, accessory,

or both upon unlock/disarm. Most new Chrysler vehicles need the ignition and accessory pulsed to

disarm the factory alarm.

1-13 Double pulse disarm - This feature changes the behavior of the small orange/white disarm wire.

When the feature is turned on it will change the default single pulse to double pulse upon disarm/ unlock.

1-14 Auto Mode (EZ-GO)- This feature enables the RFID EZ-GO functions according to the option

selected. Once selected and the EZ-GO remote has been programmed to the Control Module the

user can activate/deactivate the proximity function by holding the button on the back of the RFID

remote for 10 seconds.

Option 2: will keep the EZ-GO antenna awake and allow the system to unlock every time the

RFID remote is within proximity of the EZ-GO antenna regardless of the state of the control module

(i.e. locked/armed or unlocked/disarmed) Option 3: will allow the RFID remote to proximity unlock the system after it has been outside proximity of the EZ-GO antenna and the control Module has been locked/armed for at least 15

seconds. Option 4: will allow the system to arm/lock aprox. 12 seconds after the RFID remote leaves proximity

of the EZ-GO antenna and allow it to unlock the system as the user approaches the vehicle and is

within the proximity of the EZ-GO antenna.

1-15 Trunk Output Timing - This option changes the time of the output pulse on the violet/white wire during trunk release. The default setting is 1 second. With the options you can extend the

output by 2, 3 or 4 seconds to a maximum of 4 seconds.

CM6300 Install Guide

3-02 Confirmation chirps- This feature will allow the user to select a shorter siren output time to simulate a quieter arm/disarm/start output.

3-03 Dome Light Delay – This option is used when connecting the door trigger input to the vehicles dome light circuit. It delays the door trigger input to prevent the door open icon displaying on 2 Way remotes upon lock/arm.

3-04 Starter-Kill – This option determines the mode of the anti-grind/starter-kill relay. Default 1: Anti-grind + starter-kill Option 2: Anti-grind only (no starter-kill) Option 3: Anti-grind + passive starter-kill: starter-kill activates in 45 seconds after ignition is turned off.

3-05 Anti-Jacking – This option requires the starter-kill relay to be wired to the ignition vs. the starter wire. Default 1: Acts like starter-kill: removes power from the ignition, which allows the car to crank but not start. Option 2: Turns on anti-jacking: when the remote panics the system, power from the ignition will be removed at the end of the 30 second siren duration, thereby disabling the vehicle. IMPORTANT: When using ignition-kill on manual transmission vehicles Option 2 will need to be utilized. Option 2 disables the anti-grind circuit while the vehicle is remote-started; if the anti-grind circuit is active and the start-kill relay is installed in the ignition, the relay will “buzz” while remote- started.

3-06 Factory Alarm Option- This feature is default to on, when set to option 2 the security features of the CM6300 will be deactivated leaving the keyless features functional.

3-07 Siren Duration (Upon Alarm Trigger) - This option changes the time that the siren sounds during alarm trigger. The available options are 30, 60, and 120 seconds. It will also sound chirps for 20 seconds as a fourth option.

3-08 Horn Output - This feature will change the behavior of horn output (white wire POC8 CN3).

3-09 Siren Output - This Feature will change the behavior of the siren output (brown wire CN3

3-10 Valet – This option changes valet modes.

Default 1: Key on/off five times or remote valet (I + III for 0.5 seconds) with key in the on position. Option 2: Key on/off five times or remote valet (I+III for 0.5 seconds) – key does not need to be in the on position. Option 3: Secure valet: RPS Valet or remote valet (I+III for 0.5 seconds) – this option prevents the system from being put into valet via key on/off five times. To set up the RPS Valet feature, review the “Placement and Use of Components” section.

3-11 Auxiliary settings – The Auxiliary settings adds five additional independent auxiliary outputs for a total of seven with this option turned on. Special Option Group 1 allows for independent timing of these outputs.

3-15 Soft Disarm - When a vehicle has factory security, and the Firstech alarm is triggered, you may have both alarms sounding at the same time. In the default setting, silencing the Firstech system will not shut down the factory system, therefore requiring the user to first silence the Firstech system (by tap ping unlock 1 time) and then unlock a 2nd time to silence the factory system. Option2 will send the Factory Alarm Disarm (orange white wire CN3 or any other POC programmed as FAD) and 5 seconds later sends rearm pulse (orange wire CN3) to ensure the doors re-lock if needed.

3-16 RPS - This option changes the between the option RPS 2 or the new RPS Touch. Please see the Placement and Use of Components section of this manual for details.

4-01 Aux 1 Output - This feature determines the duration of the auxiliary 1 output. (Option 4 allows the output duration to be set for a specific length of time 1-99 sec. only available when using the OP500)

4-02 Aux 2 Output - This Feature determines the duration of the auxiliary 2 output. (Option 4 allows the output duration to be set for a specific length of time 1-99 sec. only available when using the OP500)

4-03 Aux 1 Output Control - This feature allows the user to configure the method of which Auxiliary 1 can be activated. (Option 4 will activate AUX 1, for a set period of time based off of feature 4-01, as soon as ignition input to the CM is removed)

4-04 Aux 2 Output Control - This feature allows the user to configure the method of which Auxiliary 2 can be activated. (Option 4 will activate AUX 2, for a set period of time based off of feature 4-02, as soon as the CM receives the start command)

4-05 Secure Aux Output – This feature, in the default option should help prevent accidental activation of the AUX outputs. (2way remotes will require button IV or start button to be tapped before activating any of the AUX outputs. 1way remotes require the user to hold trunk+start buttons for 2.5 seconds before activating AUX outputs Option setting II turns this feature off.)

4-06 Aux 1 Input – This feature changes the input behavior of the pre-warn wire on the Aux Input Sensor green connector. Default 1: Will pre-warn with a negative (-) ground input. Option 2: Will instant trigger with a negative (-) ground input. Option 3: Will disarm the alarm with a negative (-) ground input. Used when adding an alarm to a factory keyless entry system. Option 4: Changes the output into an open circuit input.

4-07 Aux 2 Input – This option changes the input behavior of the instant trigger wire on the Aux Input Sensor green connector.

Default 1:. Will instant trigger with a negative (-) ground input. Option 2: Will pre-warn with a negative (-) ground input. Option 3: Will arm the alarm with a negative (-) ground input. Used when adding an alarm to a factory keyless entry system. Option 4: Changes the output into an open circuit input.

4-08 Extended Accessory After Ignition Shutoff (Negative Output) – This option keeps the Accessory wire powered up after the ignition is shut off. This can be used to keep the radio turned on even after the key is removed from the ignition (similar to GM vehicles).

4-09 (-) negative Key Sense – Default setting sets the wire to off. Option 2 changes the wire to a (-) negative key sense input. Keys sense input can keep system from passive arming while the key is still in the ignition. Key sense also turns off dome-light supervision when the key is inserted into the ignition. Option 3 will provide an arm/disarm disable input wire (input polarity jumper selectable on the CM) to work with analog arm/lock disarm/unlock input (using green CN8 with CM6000- CM6300) (using red CN6 with CM6200)

4-11 Data to Data interface protocol through RS232 Port – Default setting allows for compatibility with ADS Idatalink modules. Option 2 changes compatibility to Fortin interface modules. ( If a Fortin Module is connect to the RS232 before the CM is powered up the this feature will automatically switch to option 2)

4-12 Impact Sensor - This feature changes between the standard included shock sensor and the optional DAS (Digital Adjustable Sensor). The DAS has additional programming. Please see the Placement and Use of Components section of this manual for details.

4-13 Antenna Power Save - Some people may not drive their vehicle very often, this may cause the battery to become discharged because it is not getting recharged on a regular basis. The antenna power save option will turn off the antenna after the specified amount of time to conserve power. While the antenna is asleep, the system will not respond to the remotes. Any type of input to the system will wake up the antenna, i.e.: ignition, brake, door, trunk, hood, shock, RPS, etc. A remote start only user just needs to open their door to reactivate the system, however, a user with an alarm or alarm/ start system will need to trigger the pre-warn stage of the shock sensor to quietly wake up the antenna. (This feature is not available when using EZ-GO)

4-14 Low Battery Warning - This feature option, which is default to off when the system is armed and the feature is on the main control unit, will monitor the voltage of the vehicles battery at its connection point. When the battery voltage drops to or below 11.3 volts the control module will send a page to the 2 Way. It will beep several times for 5 seconds, every 50 seconds, 3 times and flash the battery indicator on the remote. When you query the remote or unlock/disarm the system the remote will display the voltage of the vehicle’s battery. Options 3 and 4 are not available with CM6300.

Troubleshooting CM6300

Frequently Asked Questions CM6300

I have everything hooked up and the system will not respond.

A: The remotes need to be programmed. Review the “Common Procedure” section of this manual.

I am trying to program the control module with the OP500 Option Programmer and it flashes “ER 01” when I plug it in to the antenna cable. What should I do?

A: Make sure that the system is not locked/armed. The last thing to check is the antenna cable or antenna extension cable – make sure this is not damaged. If you need to, try another cable. When the OP500 is working properly, it will read “success good.” You no longer need to program the remotes before the OP500 will sync.

I need a ground when armed wire, does the control module have one?

A: You can use the ground when armed wire on CN3 that goes to the starter kill relay. You must cut this wire and place a diode in line so that when the ignition on the other side of the relay goes to ground, it won’t back feed to your accessory. Install the stripe side of the diode facing the control module.

On the brain, how do I set the auxiliaries?

A: Auxiliary 1 through 5 are defaulted on with the CM6300. Although you must have an Option Programmer (OP500) to change the outputs to a specific time. Secure auxiliary (option 4-05) will prevent these outputs from triggering without doing query first. Please review the “Special Option Group” programming section of this manual for more details.

The vehicle will lock and unlock but not flash the parking lights.

A: The system is in valet mode. Tap buttons (I) + (III) for 0.5 second or Lock and Trunk Release buttons for a half second.

Whenever I try to arm the vehicle, it chirps the siren 3 times and will not arm.

A: Check the hood and trunk trigger inputs.

CM6300 Install Guide

Do the door locks flip flop in polarity?

A: No. You can use the CompuPack (relay pack) for high current positive (+) locks, or the DM600 harness used for low current 600mA positive (+) locks.

What are Firmware Version Diagnostics?

A: When you turn the Ignition on and hold buttons 1 and 4 or Lock and Key/Start for 2.5 seconds then the parking lights will flash 1 time on the CM6 series showing V.1 and so forth. Current version 3.11 should show 3 flashes when triggered.

What is this cartridge slot on the rear of the CM6300?

A: This is the slot for the Blade cartridge system. This slot is for the Idatalink Blade remote start bypass modules. For more information on the compatibility and install information please visit www.idatalink.com/ fitguide. Using this system eliminates many connections between your standard control module and bypass module. IMPORTANT: If you are not using the Blade then you will not have or use the 20 pin connector next to the back up battery port.

I’m using the RPS Touch but my LED’s and Secure Valet LED does not flash.

A: The CM6000 and CM6300 LED and Secure Valet LEDs will not work when using an RPS Touch. This is a hardware limitation. The RPS 2 will work with LEDs and Secure Valet.
