Introduction

Congratulations on the purchase of your new Excalibur Gold security and remote starting system. You are joining over 8 million people worldwide who have trusted their vehicle's security to the designers of Omega Research & Development, Inc. Your Excalibur Gold system combines state-of-the-art security technology with practical, user-friendly convenience features. You will have increased peace of mind knowing that your vehicle, and its contents, are protected. The added convenience features will also enhance the enjoyment and satisfaction of the day-to-day use of your vehicle. To learn how to operate your system, please become familiar with the following two principal user components: the Transmitter and the Information and Programming Module.

The Transmitter: Each system comes with two pre-learned transmitters, but it can learn up to 4 different transmitters. The transmitter has three buttons: one large button at the top (near the LED*) and two smaller buttons below. This system is pre-programmed to have the transmitter buttons work in the following configuration:

The large upper button is used to arm, disarm and panic the security system.

The small center button may be used to operate the trunk release feature; or, in

conjunction with the large button, for silent arming or disarming of the system.

The small lower button is used, in conjunction with the large button, to operate remote

sensor bypass, and remote valet. Used alone it operates the remote starting operation. The remote transmitter's operation is explained in more detail starting on Page 8.

* LED is the abbreviation for Light Emitting Diode, which is used as a visual indicator.

The Information and Programming Module: This module is designed to be mounted on the windshield in view of the driver, and contains several system components. The Digital Status Indicator informs you of the condition of the security system; and also used as the visual indicator for the Automatic Transmitter VerificationTM Feature. If the system was activated while it was armed, the Digital Status Indicator will display a history of events upon disarming, and also display which protected circuit was involved with each of the events. Additionally, the Visual Deterrent LED is found at the top of this module. This light reflects the basic condition of the system, and also serves to deter theft by plainly indicating the presence of a security system. The Information and Programming Module also contains the Valet Switch, which is used to place the system into Valet Mode. This condition prevents manual arming and any operation of automatic system functions. The Valet Switch is also used, in conjunction with the ignition key, to perform an Override function, which will allow disarming the security system in the event the transmitter becomes inoperable. Please note that if an extra secure operation of the Valet Switch is desired, you may custom program its override operation by utilizing the Personal Coded Override, which is explained on Pages 19-

20. And finally, the Valet Switch is also used as part of the Programmable Features and Transmitter Programming procedures.

Please note that your new Excalibur Gold vehicle security system has 29 user and installer Programmable Features, described in detail in a later section, which allows customizing the system's operations, some to suit your personal needs, and others which adapt the system to a particular vehicle's installation parameters.

Excalibur Gold Advanced System Features

Automatic Transmitter Verification

starting system is protected against a weakness which is shared by all other transmitteroperated systems, even factory-equipped Remote Keyless Entry systems. This weakness is the ease in which an unauthorized person can encode their own unauthorized transmitter to operate your system for the purpose of stealing your vehicle or it's contents.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For the first 48 hours after your new

system is installed, every time the ignition switch is turned "on",

the siren will chirp rapidly for two seconds, and the Digital Status

Indicator will show the number of operating transmitters for 90

This will also occur for 48 hours after any transmitter coding.

Otherwise, every time the ignition switch is turned "on", the Digital Status Indicator will show the number of operating transmitters for ten seconds. In the event the system alerts you to a recent transmitter addition, or if the Visual Deterrent LED flashes a total different from the number of transmitters you have programmed to operate your system, you can now immediately reprogram your transmitters, effectively erasing any unauthorized transmitters.

The Patented Automatic Transmitter VerificationTM feature is the industry's first response addressing the growing problem of professional thieves defeating a vehicle security system by encoding their own transmitter to operate the system. Previously, garage door openers were commonly duplicated by burglars to gain home entry. Now when you leave your vehicle and keys with any individual for any reason, you will have the peace of mind of knowing that only your transmitters will operate the security system and that no other person has encoded extra transmitters to steal your vehicle.

Transmitter Code JumpingTM: When the remote control transmitter is operated, a switch upon it is pressed so that it may transmit a coded Radio Frequency (RF) signal. The word "frequency" denotes the wavelength of the signal, and the encoding is a digital message within the signal which ensures the correct command is followed by the proper receiving system. A common analogy used to illustrate this is a common pocket radio - the frequency denotes where to turn the radio's dial to hear a particular program, and the encoding is the language and words which, if correct, are understood by the listener.

Each time you transmit a code to the security system, the transmitter and security system will advance to another code to use for the transmission. The Code JumpingTM Transmitter prevents a thief from using a "code grabber" device to record and play back a transmission for the purpose of disarming your vehicle security system. Please note that pressing the transmitter's arm / disarm button many times while it is out of range of the security system can advance its codes beyond the range of recognition. If this occurs, simply press the arm / disarm button a few times within range of the system to resynchronize the Code Jumping sequence between the transmitter and the security system control module.

The Transmitter

Transmitter Button Operation: The transmitter's three buttons individually control the system's functions; and certain other operations may be performed by first pressing and releasing one button, then another, in sequence. Complete transmitter button operations are:

1) Arm / Lock: (System Disarmed) Press and release the Large Upper Button.

2) Disarm / Unlock #1: (System Armed) Press and release the Large Upper Button.

3) Unlock #2: (After the previous step) Press and release the Large Upper Button again.

4) Remote Panic Feature: (At any time) Press and hold the Large Upper Button 3

seconds.

5) T runk Release Output: (At any time) Press and hold the Small Center Button 3

seconds. This operation also disarms the system (if armed).

6) Remote Engine Start: (At any time) Press and hold the Small Lower Button for 3

seconds.

7) Silent Arm / Lock: (System Disarmed) Press and release the Small Center Button,

then press and release the Large Upper Button.

8) Silent Disarm / Unlock: (System Armed) Press and release the Small Center

Button, then press and release the Large Upper Button.

9) Arm and bypass the Auxiliary Sensor: (System Disarmed) Press and release the

Large Upper Button, then press and release the Small Lower Button.

10) Disarm, then Remote V alet: (System Armed) Press and release the Large Upper

Button, then press and release the Small Lower Button.

Page - 9

Certain conditions will affect the previously described system operations - if the ignition switch is "on", the security system cannot be armed, but pressing and holding the transmitter's Large Upper Button for 3 seconds will still engage the Panic Feature. The Trunk Release output will not operate when the ignition is "on", unless a door is open. While the system is in Valet Mode, it cannot become armed and the engine cannot be remotely started. Other functions, however, will still operate during Valet Mode; the vehicle can be locked and unlocked from the transmitter with the normal siren chirp, parking and dome lights indicators. Remote trunk release also operates when the system is in Valet Mode.

Low Battery Indicator: If the transmitter battery's voltage is too low for normal operation, the Red LED Light will indicate that the battery should be replaced. Normally, while transmitting the LED illuminates in a steady, pulsating manner. When the battery's voltage is insufficient, the LED will slowly blink twice before flashing. The lower the battery's voltage, the slower the flashing will be. Replacement transmitter batteries are available at your Excalibur Gold dealer or most electronics stores. To replace the battery, remove the #1 Phillips screw on back of the transmitter and gently pry the front and back shell halves apart. Upon reassembly, ensure that the gasket is in place before snapping the halves together.

Extended Range Antenna: The transmitter features a retractable antenna which can be extended to increase the operating range. Transmitter operating range is affected by environmental factors; the primary cause of reduced range is the presence other radio transmissions. Generally speaking, you will have greater range in suburban or rural areas

Page - 10

as compared to urban or downtown areas.

Multiple Car Operation - Changing Transmitter Banks: The transmitter button

operations explained on the previous pages are applicable for up to four different Excalibur Gold vehicle security systems (i.e. - all three transmitter buttons will operate properly on one system without affecting other systems operable by the same transmitter). This is accomplished by "changing banks" on the transmitter:

1 ) Rapidly press the transmitter's Small Center Button 4 times, holding it depressed on

the fourth press.

2 ) The transmitter LED will now be flashing 1 to 4 times between pauses. The number

of flashes indicates the current bank level (1 flash = Bank One; 2 flashes between pauses = Bank T wo; etc.). Continue to hold the Small Center Button depressed.

3 ) T o change banks, press and release the Lar ge Button the number of times equal to the

desired Bank level number. 4 ) The LED will change to flashing the new Bank level number between pauses. 5 ) Release the Small Center Button. The transmitter will now operate in the new Bank.

When attempting to enter Bank Selection Mode, please note that the transmitter alternates entering Bank Selection Mode and transmitting a signal. When attempting to enter Bank Selection Mode, if the transmitter's LED rapidly flashes, it is transmitting; simply repeat the steps listed above to enter Bank Selection Mode.

Arming The System Using The Transmitter

To "arm" your security system is to place it into a state whereby it will respond to any detected intrusion attempt. The security system can always be armed from the transmitter provided the ignition switch is “off”, and the system is disarmed and not in the Valet Mode. To arm the system, after you exit the vehicle and close all of the doors, simply press and release the large transmitter button once, Instantly the exterior and interior lights will flash once, the siren will chirp once and the Visual Deterrent LED will flash rapidly during the Arming Delay, then change to flashing slowly, confirming that the system is armed. The Digital Status Indicator will show " " during the Arming Delay, then " " for 10 seconds when the system becomes fully armed.

The doors will lock and the starter interrupt circuit will prevent any attempt to start the vehicle. Three seconds after the single siren chirp and light flash, your security system is fully armed, and is ready to respond if an intrusion attempt is detected.

Arming Bypass: Upon arming, if any protected circuit is inoperable, that circuit will be bypassed. For example, if the trunk is left open, you can still arm the system normally from the transmitter. The arming confirmation will, however change from one siren chirp and light flash to three chirps and light flashes. During Arming Bypass, the Digital Status Indicator will display which circuit is bypassed. The bypassed circuit will automatically be reinstated for protection 5 seconds after that circuit becomes operative, i.e., the trunk is closed. When a triggered circuit is in a bypassed state, all other operating circuits will be protected normally.

Page - 12

Page 4

Silent Arming and Disarming: Upon arming or disarming, if the confirmation siren chirps

are not desired, simply press and release the transmitter's small center button before pressing and releasing the large button.

Sensor Bypass: Your Excalibur Gold system provides you with the convenient option of

temporarily deactivating the Auxiliary Sensor without affecting any other trigger circuit. To deactivate the Auxiliary Sensor, simply press and release the small lower transmitter button within 3 seconds after pressing the large transmitter button when arming the system. You will hear a second siren chirp, confirming the security system has armed without the sensor circuit protecting the vehicle. The next time you arm the security system, the system will reset to its normal condition, and the Auxiliary Sensor will again be part of your protection. If desired, a second Auxiliary Sensor may be easily added to your system.

Automatic System Arming & Rearming

will show " ", and then change to " " for ten seconds when fully armed. However, if a point of entry is reopened before the single siren chirp and light flash at 30 seconds, this passive arming process stops, and will reset to start over again when that point of entry is reclosed.

"Automatic Last Door Arming" offers a high level of security, since it does not require you to remember to arm the security system when you leave your vehicle. Additionally, Automatic Last Door Arming may entitle you to an insurance discount. Please note that the previously described Arming Bypass feature does not operate with Automatic Last Door Arming. The Arming Bypass is designed to operate only when arming from the transmitter, because all protected entries must be closed prior to the Automatic Last Door Arming sequence to start.

To prevent the system from automatically arming while the vehicle is being refueled you should put the system in Valet Mode, keep your door open. We do not recommend leaving your ignition key turned "on". Last Door Arming does not effect the operation or use of the transmitter to arm the system - if desired, the transmitter may still be used to arm the system at any time.

Automatic Last Door Arming: Your security system can be programmed to arm automati-

cally when the vehicle's last door is closed. The moment the last door closes the siren will chirp once, the parking lights and dome lights will flash once and the Visual Deterrent LED will begin to flash rapidly. Thirty seconds later the siren will chirp again, the lights will flash once, the doors will lock (if the Last Door Lock feature has also been chosen) and 3 seconds later the Visual Deterrent LED will slow to a steady flash, confirming that the security system is fully armed. During this 30 second period, the Digital Status Indicator

Page - 13

rearms. Automatic Rearming is indicated by a fast flashing Visual Deterrent LED during the 90 seconds, then a parking and dome light flash when the system rearms.

Remote Valet: This Feature, which only operates as part of the Automatic Rearming

Feature, will temporarily cancel the Automatic Rearming. To use Remote Valet, press and release the large transmitter button to disarm the system; then, within 3 seconds, press and release the small lower transmitter button. The parking lights will flash on and off, and the LED Status Indicator will illuminate steady to confirm Remote Valet operation. The Digital Status Indicator will show " " for 30 seconds The system will remain in Remote Valet mode until armed again by the transmitter; or, the Valet Switch may be pressed to place the system in the "standby" mode.

Security System Armed & Activated

While the security system is armed, the Visual Deterrent LED will be flashing. Should any intrusion attempt occur, your system will instantly activate, or "trigger". When triggered, the system will:

1) Sound the electronic siren or the vehicle's horn. The siren features six different

tones, and every 5 seconds the siren will change the tone to generate more attention to the vehicle. If used instead of the siren, the horn will sound a series of honks, sounding for one second, then pausing one second. Every ten seconds, the horn will pause honking completely for 5 seconds, which avoids overheating the horn. This will occur for the duration of the activated cycle.

Page - 15

Automatic Rearming: Selecting this feature adds Automatic Rearming, which is

independent of Automatic Last Door Arming. This feature will cause the system to automatically rearm itself 90 seconds after disarming, unless the ignition switch is turned "on". This prevents the accidental disarming of the system by the inadvertent pressing of the transmitter's button while placing it in a purse or pocket. If the "Automatic Relocking" Programmable Feature is utilized, the doors will also lock when the system automatically

Page - 14

2 ) The exterior lights will flash.

3 ) The doors will relock so that the thief cannot easily regain entry. This feature is so

unique that the security system monitors the status of the door and, if open, the system waits until the door is closed, at which time it relocks the doors.

The siren and the parking lights will stay active for 60 seconds unless you disarm the system with the transmitter or by using the Valet Override. If all protected entries are secure at the end of 60 seconds, the system will stop and rearm automatically to detect another entry attempt. If there is a protected entry still open, or an optional sensor still in a triggered state at the end of 60 seconds, the system will reactivate for two more 60 second cycles.

The system will stop after a total of 3 minutes and rearm automatically, while ignoring only the open entry or triggered circuit. When the entry is closed, protection will begin instantly for that circuit.

After the security system has been activated, the disarm confirmation will no longer be 2 siren chirps, and the parking and interior lights staying on. Instead, the system will respond by producing 4 siren chirps and the parking lights and interior lights will flash 4 times before staying on for 30 seconds. The Digital Status Indicator will first flash a number, then letter, which indicates the protected zone which was violated and number of violations. If more than one zone was violated, all be flashed in sequence. The Visual Deterrent LED will also change to flashing two to five times, then pausing 1 second to indicate which protected zone

Page - 16

Page 5

triggered the system. The Digital Status Indicator and Visual Deterrent LED will continue flashing this Zone Violation Code until the ignition switch is turned “on”, which clears the system's Zone Violation Code memory circuit. Please see Pages 25-29 for the violation codes.

Disarming The System Using The Transmitter

While the security system is in the armed state, pressing and releasing the large transmitter button once will instantly disarm the system and unlock the door or doors. Disarming is confirmed by the siren chirping twice, and the parking and interior lights turning on for 30 seconds. However, the lights will turn off instantly if the ignition switch is turned "on". If the system was triggered while you are away, the disarm confirmation will change to 4 siren chirps, 4 light flashes, and then the lights will stay on for 30 seconds, to illuminate the way to your vehicle. The security system will have this response upon disarming until the ignition switch is turned "on", which clears the unit's memory. Anytime the security system triggers, the Visual Deterrent LED and the Digital Status Indicator will indicate which zone triggered the system; these are explained on Pages 25-29.

Your Excalibur Gold vehicle security system offers a very high level of personal safety and convenience with the advanced features utilized upon disarming. The ability to know instantly if your system was triggered while you were away, and the exterior and interior light illumination allows you a lighted approach to your vehicle with the ability to examine the interior before entering. If you wish, you can program the system to turn on the exterior and interior lights for five seconds instead of thirty seconds upon disarming.

Easy Valet

Valet Mode is a condition, or state, in which the security system may be placed to prevent certain functions from occurring, especially any automatic functions such as Last Door Arming. An Override is an alternative method of disarming an armed and activated system. Therefore, there are two separate and distinct methods to obtain these functions: first is Easy ValetTM Mode, whereby a disarmed system may be placed into Valet Mode without the ignition key, and the second is Personal Coded Override Mode, which will disarm an armed or activated system and requires the use of the ignition key.

The Valet Switch is on the Information and Programming Module.

Easy Valet

the disarmed condition. If your Excalibur Gold system is programmed to perform any automatic features, such as Last Door Arming, you will find Easy Valet Mode useful when stopping for fuel, having your vehicle serviced, having it valet parked, etc. Easy Valet Mode is unique because other security systems require the ignition switch to be "on" to enter Valet Mode, but with this system, the ignition can be either "on" or "off", so the key is not required.

Whenever the security system is disarmed, simply depress the Valet Switch for two seconds to achieve the Easy Valet Mode. The system will confirm it is in the Easy Valet Mode with two siren chirps. The Digital Status Indicator will show " " for 30 seconds and the Visual Deterrent LED will illuminate steady. To remind you that the system is in Easy Valet Mode, every time the ignition switch is turned "off" the siren will chirp once. The system will hold memory of the Easy Valet Mode condition while the ignition is "on" or "off", or even if power is removed from the system.

Mode: This unique feature can be utilized anytime the security system is in

& Personal Coded Override

While in the Easy Valet Mode, the transmitters can still operate the Panic Feature, the power doorlock operation, or optional trunk release. Additionally, the doors will lock when the ignition is turned "on" and unlock when turned "off"', if this programmable feature is utilized. To exit the Easy Valet Mode, simply momentarily press the Valet Switch. The security system will instantly revert to the disarmed condition. To confirm that Valet Mode has been exited, the Information and Programming Module and Digital Status Indicator will turn off. Remember, Easy Valet Mode only operates when the security system is in a disarmed state - an armed condition requires using the Personal Coded Override, which may be custom programmed to be operable only by yourself.

Personal Coded Override - How To Disarm The System Without Using The Transmitter:

In the event the transmitter is lost, damaged, or otherwise inoperable, the Valet Switch and your ignition key may be used to disarm the system. This is Personal Coded Override, and you may custom program its operation for convenience, or, a higher level of security. As set at the factory, Personal Coded Override operates in the following fashion:

1 ) If the security system is armed, and the transmitter not available or operable, have

the ignition key ready and enter the vehicle - be prepared for the system to trigger when the door is opened.

2) Turn the ignition switch "on", and within 5 seconds press and release the Valet

Switch once. The system will instantly disarm.

Page - 19

Personal Coded Override can offer a higher level of security if desired because, in addition to the ignition key, you may configure a second "stage" to the procedure, and even program a preset number of Valet Switch presses for each stage. Please see Pages 34-35 for further programming and operational details of this Feature.

Remote Panic

Should you feel threatened or the need to attract attention at any time, you can activate your Excalibur Gold's Remote Panic feature by depressing the large transmitter button for 2 seconds. Your system will respond by sounding the siren, locking the doors and flashing the exterior lights for 60 seconds. Remote Panic may operated regardless of the system's armed or disarmed status, while the ignition switch is "on", and while the system is in Valet Mode. To disengage Remote Panic, simply press and release the large transmitter button again. If you should wish to enter your vehicle after engaging Remote Panic, press and release the large transmitter to disengage Remote Panic; the doors will also unlock, allowing easier entry.

Remote Trunk Release & 3rd Channel Output

Remote Trunk Release: If your vehicle is equipped with electric trunk release, your authorized Excalibur Gold dealer can configure your system to accomplish trunk release from your transmitter. To operate this option when equipped, simply press and hold the small center transmitter button for 2 seconds. Your vehicle will respond by releasing the trunk lid, chirping the siren twice, disarming the system and turning on your exterior and interior lights for 30 seconds. The trunk release output will not operate with the ignition

Page - 20

Page 6

switch "on" unless the vehicle's door is open. If desired, your Excalibur Gold dealer can program the security system to remain armed when this feature is used.

Optional 3rd Channel Output: This output's operation is the same as the trunk release

output except for the following items: Press both the center and lower small transmitter buttons for 2 seconds to activate the 3rd channel output. The 3rd channel output will operate regardless of the ignition switch being "on" or "off", and there is no audible or visual confirmation. This output may be used to operate additional optional equipment; your installing dealer can provide details.

1 ) Press and hold the small lower transmitter button for 2 seconds. Regardless of the

system's status, it will arm and lock the doors at this time, as indicated by one siren chirp and one parking light flash.

2) The starter will engage until the engine starts; after the engine starts, the system

will chirp the siren once and flash the parking lights once.

3 ) A few seconds after the engine has started, the system will chirp the siren and flash

the parking lights twice. The parking lights will then continue to flash twice between pauses for the duration of the engine run time.

Remote Engine Starting

The Excalibur Gold EG-1800

System is designed to be installed on automatic transmission vehicles only!

The remote engine starting feature should not be used when

the vehicle is parked in an enclosed structure or garage.

Your Excalibur Gold system offers the ultimate in comfort and convenience- remote engine starting. This feature allows the vehicle's interior to be warmed in the winter or cooled in the summer before you enter the vehicle. Simply leave the climate controls set to the desired settings when leaving the vehicle prior to using the remote starting feature. The remote starting feature operation is as follows:

1 ) Removing the gear selector from the "park" position.

2) Opening the hood.

3) Opening a door; the system must be disarmed before entering the vehicle. To disarm,

press the large transmitter button once. The system will disarm, chirping the siren twice

unlocking the door or doors and illuminating the parking and dome lights. At this point,

the engine will remain running for 30 seconds longer, although the accessories will turn

off. During this 30 second period, insert the key into the ignition switch and turn the

switch to "on" position (not "start"!). Then press the brake pedal; the engine is no longer

running from remote control, but rather from the ignition switch.

4) Pressing the brake pedal.

If a start command is sent from the transmitter, but any of the above conditions are present, the system will not attempt to start the engine and will indicate the violated safety circuit instead as follows:

1) Gear selector not in the "park" position produces one long and one short siren chirp.

2) An open hood produces one long and two short siren chirps.

3) An open door produces one long and three short siren chirps.

4) Pressed brake pedal produces one long and four short siren chirps.

When remote starting, if the engine fails to start, two more starting attempts will automatically be attempted. The second and third attempts will progressively engage the starter for longer periods, but the starter will disengage when the system detects the engine running. When programmed for diesel operation, the starter will engage 10 seconds after the ignition is on.

Page - 23

When leaving the vehicle before remote starting, remember to set the climate controls to the desired heating or air conditioning settings.

The engine will run for the programmed amount of time, 10 or 20 minutes, with 10 minutes being the factory-set period. The 20 minute setting may be programmed, if desired, by referring to the "Programming Features" section starts on Page 31. Once the engine has been remotely started, to remotely stop the engine again press the lower small transmitter button for 2 seconds. The system will stop the engine, chirp the siren twice and flash the parking and dome lights twice. The system will remain armed with the doors locked.

Other conditions will both prevent the engine from remotely starting, or if remotely started already, will stop it from running. These conditions are:

Page - 22

Other Remote Engine Starting Features

Pit-StopTM Feature: This feature allows you to turn the ignition switch off, remove your

keys, leave the vehicle and lock your doors while leaving the engine running. To use this feature, have your foot off of the brake pedal and press the transmitter's small lower button for 2 seconds. The system will chirp the siren and flash the parking and dome lights once. The key can be removed from the ignition switch and the engine will remain running for the programmed 10 or 20 minute period. During this period, the engine can be turned off by pressing the small lower transmitter button again for 2 seconds or by pressing the brake pedal. This feature is handy for briefly leaving the vehicle with the engine running while taking your keys with you.

Automatic Starting Feature: This feature automatically starts the engine every 3 hours,

with a maximum of five automatic starts. To make this feature available for use, Programmable Feature #29 must be turned on (see Page 49). To activate this feature, with the ignition on press the small lower transmitter button 2 seconds; the system will chirp the siren and flash the parking and dome lights once. Now press the brake pedal within 7 seconds of siren chirp and light flash. The system will respond with two siren chirps and light flashes.

Three hours later, the engine will automatically start and run for the programmed time. The automatic starting will continue every three hours. Turning off the engine with the transmitter or removing the gear selector from "park" will cancel this feature. This feature is handy when bitterly cold nights are expected.

Visual Deterrent LED

The Visual Deterrent LED flashes whenever the system is armed to deter a break-in, and is also a visual indicator of what state the security part of the system is in at any given time. It is located on the top of the Information and Programming Module. These are the conditions that are reflected by the Visual Deterrent LED:

1) O ff = The security system is disarmed and not performing any automatic

functions.

2) On Constant = The security system is in the Valet Mode.

3) Flashing Slow = The security system is Fully Armed.

4) Flashing Fast = The 3 second Arming Delay, the 30 second Last Door Arming

feature or 90 second Automatic Rearming feature is in progress.

Automatic Transmitter VerificationTM: After the ignition is turned "on", the Visual Deterrent LED will flash to indicate the number of transmitters programmed to operate your system. For example, two flashes between pauses indicates that only two transmitters are coded to operate your system. This feature, in normal operation, shows how many operable transmitters there are for 10 seconds every time the ignition switch is turned "on".

5) Flash-1x & Pause = 1 transmitter code is stored in the system's memory.

6) Flash-2x & Pause = 2 transmitter codes are stored in the system's memory.

7) Flash-3x & Pause = 3 transmitter codes are stored in the system's memory.

8) Flash-4x & Pause = 4 transmitter codes are stored in the system's memory.

This feature also warns of unauthorized transmitter programming; please see Page 6.

Zone Violation: If the system is activated the Red Visual Deterrent LED will start to flash

and pause the #9 through #12 sequences to indicate which protected circuit caused the activation. This is seen while the system is activated and after disarming, until the ignition switch is turned "on", which will clear the security system's memory. The system's memory circuit can store four different codes, and if multiple violations involving different zones occurred, the different zones will be shown.

9) Flash-1x & Pause = System was activated from current sensing.

10) Flash-2x & Pause = System was activated from the hood or trunk circuit wire.

11) Flash-3x & Pause = System was activated from the door circuit wire.

12) Flash-4x & Pause = System was activated from the auxiliary input.

13) Flash-5x & Pause = System's prewarn feature was activated.

Zone Testing: Every time the ignition key is turned off , the Visual Deterrent LED will flash

and pause the #14 through #18 sequences to indicate if a protected circuit, or "zone", is in an activated state. For example: open a door after the ignition is turned off and the Red Visual Deterrent LED will start flashing 3 times and pause until the door is closed. If another protected entry point is violated while the door is still open, then the Red Visual Deterrent LED will alternate flashing both zone violation codes.

14) Flash-1x & Pause = System is detecting a trigger from a current spike.

15) Flash-2x & Pause = System is detecting a trigger from the hood or trunk circuit.

16) Flash-3x & Pause = System is detecting a trigger from the door circuit wire.

17) Flash-4x & Pause = System is detecting a trigger from the auxiliary input.

18) Flash-5x & Pause = System is detecting a trigger from the prewarn input.

Up to 10 Zone Violations can be stored, and are presented as a history of events, the highest number being the most recent event.

Audible And Visual Indicators

The Security System is capable of utilizing an electronic siren or the vehicle's horn for audible indications and output when activated. The dome and parking lights are also used as visual indications. The siren produces a sharp "chirping" sound as confirmation of certain operation. If utilizing the vehicle's horn instead of the siren, simply use "horn honks" in place of "chirps" in the following descriptions:

1) One chirp & one light flash: The system has started a passive Last Door Arming

countdown and will become armed after the 30 second countdown expires. This chirp indicates that the starter interrupt will engage and the doors will lock when the system becomes fully armed 30 seconds later.

Page - 29

2) One chirp, one light flash, & doors lock: The system has armed passively or actively from

the transmitter. The starter interrupt has engaged and doors have locked. The system can be activated 3 seconds later.

3) One chirp after the arming chirp above: The auxiliary sensor circuit is bypassed from

pressing the small transmitter button within 3 seconds of pressing the large button.

4) One chirp, and no light flash, but only at the moment the ignition switch is turned "off":

The system is in Valet Mode, and will not arm actively or passively.

5) Two chirps & the lights stay on for 30 seconds: The system has just disarmed.

6) Three chirps & three light flashes: The system has just been armed by the transmitter

with a protected circuit in a violated condition.

7) Four chirps & four light flashes, then the lights stay on for 30 seconds: The system has

just disarmed and was activated while you were away. The system will have this disarming confirmation until the ignition switch is turned "on".

8) Two short chirps: The system has just entered the Easy ValetTM Mode.

9) Siren sounding, and lights flashing on and off: The system is in an activated state.

10) A series of chirps lasting two seconds after the ignition switch is turned "on": The

Automatic Transmitter VerificationTM feature (Pages 7-8) has been activated. This will also occur for 48 hours after installation .

11) Multiple chirps while the system is armed: The Prewarning feature has been activated.

12) One chirp, one light flash, doors lock; engine starts, followed by another chirp. The

lights then flash twice between pauses: The remote starting feature has been activated.

13) Two chirps, two light flashes, doors lock; engine stops: The remote starting feature has

been deactivated via the transmitter. The system remains armed.

Prewarning Feature

This circuit requires connection of the included shock sensor. When the sensor detects a minor impact, the security system will respond by chirping the siren for two seconds. After this feature has been activated 5 times it will automatically shut down until the system is rearmed again. This will prevent the system from being a nuisance to the general public.

Programming Features

Your vehicle security system has a total of 29 Features which may be programmed via the Valet Switch and the transmitter in a special procedure. The Features Programming Mode is accessed through the turning "off" of the ignition switch and properly pressing the Valet Switch. Once in Features Programming Mode, the Valet Switch is further used to specify which of the 29 Features is to be changed, then the transmitter is used to program the selected Feature. If two failed attempts are made to enter the Features Programming Mode, two minutes must expire before attempting again (indicated by a siren burst or double horn honk). To access the Features Programming Mode, follow this procedure:

Step 1 - Within 5 seconds of turning the ignition "off", momentarily press the Valet

Switch 5 times. The security system will respond with sounding the siren for a short period.

Step 2a -The Personal Coded Override must be entered before 15 seconds expires.

Press the Valet Switch the correct number of times - the factory-set default is one

Page - 31 Page - 32

press for stage #1 and no press for stage #2. If the system is configured with the default setting, it will respond by sounding the siren for a short period, then two chirps. In this case proceed to Step 3.

Step 2b -If the system has had the Personal Coded Override custom-programmed, once

stage #1 been properly entered (which can be up to nine Valet Switch presses) the system will acknowledge the entry by sounding the siren for a short period, then one chirp. You now have 8.5 seconds to initiate stage #2 of entering the Override Code. Momentarily press the Valet Switch equal to the Override Code number programmed for stage #2. The system will acknowledge the entry by sounding the siren for a short burst and two chirps.

Step 3 - You now have 15 seconds access the desired Feature. This done by pressing the

Valet Switch the number of times that are equal to Feature number listed. For example, to change the Arming Delay to 45 seconds, press the Valet Switch 18 times as this is the eighteenth Feature on the list. The system will acknowledge the Valet Switch entry by displaying the selected Feature in the Digital Status Indicator and chirping the siren a number of times equal to the number of Valet Switch presses.

Step 4 - You have 15 seconds to change the chosen Feature. Press the transmitter's large

upper button to turn the Feature ON, or press the small center button to turn the Feature OFF. Turning the Feature ON is indicated by one siren chirp ; turning the Feature OFF is indicated by two siren chirps.

allows remote activation of the Anti-Carjacking Feature. When this Feature is utilized, pressing the transmitter's small lower button for 3 seconds will activate the 3rd Channel Output, but if the ignition switch is "on", this operation will also activate the AntiCarjacking Feature, which is previously described.

will respond with two siren chirps to indicate that this Feature is OFF. Pressing the large upper button will turn this Feature ON, with the system's response being a single siren chirp.

27) Current Sensing Delay 3 Or 210 Seconds: Default 210 Seconds. This Feature sets

one of two time delays before the Current Sensing Feature will operate after arming the security system. Vehicles having delay dome lights or electric cooling fans may require the longer setting. If the optional Omega Pager is added, the 210 second setting is recommended.

To change the system from the default setting, follow Steps 1, 2, and 3 on Pages 31-32. At Step 4, press and release the transmitter's small center button. The system will respond with two siren chirps to indicate that the current sensing delay is now 3 seconds. Pressing the large upper button will return this Feature to the 210 sec-

onds setting (3 minutes and 30 seconds), with the system's response being a single siren chirp.

28) Remote Start Engine Run Time 10 Or 20 Minutes: Default 10 Minutes. This

Feature sets the period of time that the engine will run after being remotely started. If the engine is not stopped by transmitter or a safety circuit violation, the engine will automatically stop upon the expiration of the selected time period.

To change the system from the default setting, follow Steps 1, 2, and 3 on Pages 31-32. At Step 4, press and release the transmitter's small center button. The system will respond with two siren chirps to indicate that the engine run time is now 20 minutes. Pressing the large upper button will return this Feature to the 10 minute setting, with the system's response being a single siren chirp.

29) Automatic Remote Engine Start: Default OFF. This Feature, described on Page

24, will automatically start the engine, but it must be activated for each use. Turning this feature on is simply making it available for use.

T o change the system from the default setting, follow Steps 1, 2, and 3 on Pages 31-32. At Step 4, press and release the transmitter's large upper button. The system will respond with a single siren chirp to indicate that this Feature is ON. Pressing the small center button will turn this Feature OFF , with the system's response being two siren chirps. Page 24 describes how to activate this feature for use.

Programming Transmitters

Important! If Automatic Transmitter VerificationTM (siren chirping or horn honking for

2 seconds upon the ignition being turned "on") should ever be activated, you should immediately recode your existing, authorized transmitters.

Up to 4 different transmitters may be programmed into the security system's memory. When a new transmitter code is programmed into the system, all previous codes will be deleted. If a third or fourth transmitter is desired, all of the transmitters must be programmed into system's memory. To program transmitters to operate your system, follow this process:

1)Turn "on" the ignition switch; within 5 seconds of turning "on" the ignition switch, press

the Valet Switch 5 times. The system will respond with a long siren chirp.

Note: If no further coding action is taken, or if the ignition is turned "off", the learning

Page - 49

process will automatically terminate, which will be indicated by two siren chirps.

2a) The Personal Coded Override must be entered before 15 seconds expires. Press the Valet

Switch the correct number of times - the factory-set default is one press for stage #1 and no press for stage #2. If the system is configured with the default setting, it will respond by sounding the siren for a short period, then two chirps. In this case proceed to Step 3.

2b) If the system has had the Personal Coded Override custom-programmed, once stage #1

been properly entered (which can be up to nine Valet Switch presses) the system will acknowledge the entry by sounding the siren for a short period, then one chirp. You now have 8.5 seconds to initiate stage #2 of entering the Override Code. Momentarily press the Valet Switch equal to the Override Code number programmed for stage #2. The system will acknowledge the entry by sounding the siren for a short burst and two chirps.

3)To learn the first transmitter code, press the large transmitter button, (which will arm/disarm/

panic the system), until you hear one long and one short siren chirp to confirm that the code was learned. The two small button's functions will automatically be learned at the same time.

When the first transmitter code is learned, all other prior codes will be erased.

4)To program the second, third or fourth transmitter codes, repeat step 3. As each transmitter

is learned, the long confirmation siren chirp will be followed by two short chirps for

Page - 50

transmitter number two, three short chirps for transmitter number three, and four short

chirps for transmitter number four. An attempt to add any further transmitter codes will be

ignored.

5)Turning off the ignition switch or 10 seconds of no programming will automatically turn

off the transmitter learning code program, which is confirmed by two long siren chirps.

Whenever a transmitter is coded into the security system, whether an existing one or previously unknown transmitter, the siren will chirp for two seconds every time the ignition is turned "on", for a period of 48 hours. Additionally, the Visual Deterrent LED will flash and the Digital Status Indicator will show the number of transmitters which can operate the system for 90 seconds instead of 10 seconds. This operation is the Automatic Transmitter VerificationTM feature, which protects the system from someone programming an unauthorized transmitter to operate the system.

Remember, up to four different security systems may be operated by each transmitter by taking advantage of its ability to change banks, as described on Page 11.
