If you are new to installing Firstech Series Remote Starts and / or Alarms, we highly recommended that you thor-

oughly review this manual to installing your rst unit.

Key Points to Consider Before Installation:

Options must be set before installation

The options for the FT-820 must be set via your computer. Please load the FT820 software to choose the vehicle make and model, set options, and program your unit before installation.

Please familiarize yourself with the wiring of the FT-820

The FT-820 is designed for quick installation with the use of supplied Y-adapter connector for the vehicle’s main ignition harness. The Y-adapter is designed to connect in line with the factory’s ignition harness. Other harness are plug and play minus the foot brake, e-brake and ISO9141-2 and/or CAN High and Low wires

Green loop must be cut for AUTOMATIC transmission vehicles By default, FT-820 units come in MANUAL transmission mode. You will need to cut the green loop inside the control module if you are installing the unit in a AUTOMATIC transmission.

You must code remotes to this system before anything will function

Program remotes by cycling the ignition ON / OFF ve times within seven seconds and tap button 1 (0.5 seconds) on the rst remote, and then tap button 1 (0.5 seconds) on the second remote.

RPS-II (Remote Paging Sensor)

This unit has an optional RPS that has three main functions; 1. Status LED, 2. Remote notication when triggered, and 3. Auto unlock/alarm disarm when a user specic 4 digit knock code is entered via tapping sensor through the

windshield.

Firstech Shock Sensor

This unit has an optional shock sensor that can be added to the FT-820. The sensor comes with the cable and just has to be plugged in.

Firstech Thermistor

This piece has the ability to monitor temperature in the vehicle using 2 Way LCD remotes only. This is not included with the FT-820.

Re m o T e pR o G R a m m I n G Ro u T I n e fT-820

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) ve times within 7 seconds. The vehicle’s parking lights will ash 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 ash once to conrm 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 ash twice signaling the end of programming mode.

Programming Multiple Remotes: After the conrmation ash 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 ash once conrming each additional remote. All systems can recognize up to three remotes.

Note: If you program only 1 Way remotes to a 2 Way antenna you will receive 3 parking light ashes and/or siren

chirps when you turn the ignition on. This will be alleviated by programming a 2 Way remote.

Green/White Loop

This loop wire determines the transmission setting. The default position (uncut loop) is for manual transmissions. When the loop is cut, the system will be ready for automatic transmissions. In the default (manual transmission) mode, the system must be set up in Reservation mode prior to the vehicle being able to remote start. IMPORTANT: All warranties or claims are void if a controller with a cut loop is installed on a vehicle with a manual transmission.

RPS-II (Remote Paging Sensor)

The RPS-II sensor is designed to be mounted on the inside of the windshield. Basic RPS functions do not require programming. There is a three position switch on the rear of the RPS-II. This adjusts the sensitivity of the RPS-II. The larger the circle the more sensitive the knock is. To activate the RPS unlock / disarm feature you must perform the following procedures:

STEP 1: Disarm/unlock the alarm. (Remotes must be programmed rst.) STEP 2: Turn ignition key to the “on” position and the leave the driver’s door open. STEP 3: Knock on the windshield in front of the RPS a total of 10 times (each time you knock the LED on

the RPS will ash RED). The LED will begin to ash rapidly in BLUE with successful completion of this

step.

STEP 4: Enter the rst digit of the desired four-digit pass code by knocking on the windshield in front of

the RPS the desired number of times. For example, to enter 3, knock on the sensor 3 times (each time you

knock the LED will ash RED) then wait. STEP 5: The LED on the RPS will conrm your rst number by ashing BLUE slowly. Once the LED begins to ash rapidly in BLUE, enter your second number by repeating step 4.

STEP 6: Repeat steps 4 & 5 to enter all four numbers. STEP 7: Turn the ignition OFF. The RPS disarm/unlock feature is now programmed. Repeat steps 3 – 5 to enter your disarm/unlock code.

Firstech Shock Sensor - Optional

For best results mount the shock sensor by zip tying it to the vehicle’s main ignition harness or other solid harness. There is a small dial on the sensor that ranges from Off to 10. The higher the number on the dial the greater sensitivity

of impact. A small adjustment to the dial can make a signicant difference in sensitivity for both 1st and 2nd stages.

Recommended dial settings for most vehicles is somewhere between 2 & 4.

Siren - Optional

The volume output of the siren can be increased 3 dB by cutting black wire loop located near the base of the siren. To adjust duration time when the alarm has been triggered, change Option 2-07 – the system default is 30 seconds.

Thermistor (Temperature Sensor) Optional

Every 2 Way remote - Firstech system includes an optional thermistor, which must be plugged into the 2 pin port of the control module for use. The use of the thermistor allows the 2 Way remote to display the vehicle’s interior temperature on the remote LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) as well as permitting the vehicle to start with timed Hot or Cold starting; see options 2-01, 2-02 and 2-03. IMPORTANT: New thermistor plugs are blue 2 pin connectors on the CM5 series but old white plug thermistors will still work.

Co m m o n pR o C e d u R e s fT-820

Setting Auxiliary Output

To set auxiliary outputs on the control module you must set these using the boot loader via your computer.

Set menu to Option 2-05 and 2-06 and set the options. You can only set specic time from 1 – 100 seconds on Aux 1.

Please see the Option Table for details.

Tach Sensing

Tach sensing for the FT-820 is done through the vehicle’s data connector or CAN network. There is no manual wire to connect to the vehicle’s engine bay for a proper tachometer signal.

Reservation Mode for Manual Transmissions

To remote start a manual transmission vehicle, the system must rst be set up in reservation mode. Reservation mode is

designed to prevent the vehicle from remote starting while the transmission is in gear.

Installation Requirements

1. The vehicle’s door triggers must be connected to the control module. Prior to making nal connections, test the factory door triggers to ensure that they are functioning properly.

2. The vehicle’s emergency/parking brake wire must be connected to the control module. The proper vehicle wire usually provides a negative (-) trigger while the emergency / parking brake is set.

3. The vehicle’s clutch must be momentarily bypassed while the remote start cranks the engine. This momentary bypass simulates the clutch being depressed. For complete details on how to wire a momentary clutch bypass consult your CompuTech program or contact our technical support department by calling 888-820-3690.

IMPORTANT: Do not install a remote start in manual transmission vehicles with convertible / removable tops and in user’s vehicles that leave their windows down. Firstech nor their authorized dealers will assume responsibility for improper use or install.

Activating Reservation Mode

STEP 1: Start the vehicle with the key. Place the transmission in neutral, remove pressure from the pedal brake, and set the emergency/parking brake.

STEP 2: Remove the key from the vehicle’s ignition. The vehicles engine should remain running even after the key has been removed. If the vehicle does not remain running, check the emergency / parking brake connection.

STEP 3: Exit the vehicle and close the door. The vehicle’s engine should shut off upon closing the door. If the vehicle’s engine does not shut off, check the door trigger connection or wait for the factory dome-light to go out. The Firstech system is in reservation mode and the vehicle is ready to safely remote start.

Additional Notes

Reservation mode will be cancelled if the control module recognizes the vehicles door, hood or trunk opening – or if the alarm is triggered. Each time the end user wants to remote start their manual transmission vehicle, they must set the control module in reservation mode. Reservation mode settings can be programmed with Option 1-05.

op T I o n pR o G R a m m I n G WI T H op500 fT-820

The OP500 can be used to program any available option. It is required to program options in Special Option Groups 1.

STEP 1: Using the blue connector on the top of the OP500, connect it to the control module via the antenna wire. (Use the included extension cable if necessary.) Once connected, the OP500 will power up as long as the main ignition harness to the controller has been connected properly.

STEP 2: To change the option number you wish to program, use the left and right arrow keys on the OP500. It will scroll through the options available in menu 1 and then move to menu 2, then 3 and 4. Use the up and down arrow buttons on the OP500 to adjust the option settings; “1” is the default setting, and “2”, “3”, and “4” are the optional settings

STEP 3: When nished with the adjustment of the various option settings, press and hold the “W” (write) button

until the OP500 chirps, which is approximately 2.5 seconds. This will write the settings to the control module. Wait until the module displays “Success” before disconnecting it from the antenna cable.

To reset the options, hold the “R” (reset) button and the “W” (write) button for 2.5 seconds. Release then write the reset, hold the “W” button until the OP500 chirps, which is approximately 2.5 seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions

fR e q u e n T l y as K e d qu e s T I o n s fT-820

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

A: The remotes need to be programmed. Review the “Remote Programming Procedure” above.

What is the green loop wire outside the brain module?

A: This wire determines the transmission mode. With the loop intact, the system is set for manual transmissions. With the loop cut, the system is set for automatic transmission.

The vehicle remote starts when disarmed, but not when armed.

A: The starter kill relay was installed backwards. Check to make sure the yellow/black wire is going to the ignition side of the wire, and that the yellow wire is going to the engine side.

The vehicle starts and shuts down 3 times in a row.

A: This usually means that the engine sensing mode is not working correctly. Also check the transponder bypass for the vehicle as well.

The vehicle will lock and unlock, but will not remote start or ash the parking lights.

A: The system is in valet mode. Tap buttons (I) + (III) for 0.5 seconds while the key is in the on position.

The siren chirps once every 10 seconds after I arm the system.

A: There is a poor connection between the FT820 and the vehicle’s OBDII plug. Recheck your wire(s) connection.
