Remote Start Features
It is typically recommended that vehicles equipped with turbocharged engines
allow the engine to idle for after driving to cool the turbocharger. When this Installer
Programmable Feature is enabled, the system will automatically keep the engine
running as follows:
• With the engine running, hold the brake pedal and engage the parking brake.
When the brake pedal is released, the system will keep the engine running for the
programmed time (1, 2, or 3 minutes), and then automatically turn it off.
This feature will automatically start the engine should the vehicle battery drop
below 11 volts or the interior temperature drop to 15 (or 32) degrees fahrenheit. This
feature is very useful when the vehicle is parked for a long period of time in cold cli-
mates. You must activate these features each time you park and wish to use them.
• Turn the ignition switch “on”, then “off” (engine not running), and within 7 seconds
press the valet switch twice. The system is now in low voltage start mode.
• To activate low temp starting, enter low voltage start mode as described above
but, within 5 seconds of entering low voltage mode, press the valet switch 1 time (15
degrees) or 2 times (32 degrees) within 5 seconds.
NOTE: When low temp start mode is activated, low voltage start is also activated.
These features will operate once every two hours until the ignition key is turned

prevented from engaging, or “bypassed” if desired, by turning the engine off before
engaging the parking brake, or if it’s already engaged, step on the brake pedal to
turn the engine off.
PIT-STOP FEATURE
This feature allows you to leave your engine running for making quick errands. To
use this feature, have the engine running normally from the ignition switch and your
foot off the brake pedal. Press the Valet Switch twice; the parking lights will fl ash.
Turn the key off and the engine will remain running for the programmed run time.
Valet Mode
Valet mode prevents the remote start feature from being activated. It also dis-
ables horn honks when unlocking the doors. Valet Mode should be used when you
do not wish for remote starting to be operated, such as when you have your vehicle
serviced. To engage Valet Mode:
• With the system “unlocked”, press and hold the Valet Switch for 3 seconds; the
Status Light will turn on and stay on to indicate Valet Mode. The lights will fl ash
twice. Once in Valet Mode, an attempt to remote start will result in no response.
Keep this in mind if remote start stops functioning.
• To turn off Valet Mode, simply press & release the Valet Switch once.

looks for a voltage increase of 0.5v after cranking.
“Tach Wire” Before this setting is programmed, refer to the “Violet/White wire” sec-
tion of the installation manual for proper wiring connection and the Tach Learn Pro-
cedure. It will crank the engine for up to 3 seconds or until a tach signal is detected.
“Data Tach” mode operates just like the “Tach Wire” setting except it takes its
reading from the D2D data port instead of using the Violet/White wire. Before using,
make sure this function is supported by the Databus Interface module.
“Crank Only” AKA “blind start” is similar to the “Tachless” settings however, it only
makes one start attempt and does not monitor engine running conditions. This is
useful for many “push-to-start” vehicles.
Feature #3 Gasoline Or Diesel Engine
Gasoline (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
Diesel (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
This feature changes the system’s timing of the ignition and starter output sequence
for remotely starting vehicles with gas or diesel engines. When set for gasoline, the
starter output will occur 3 seconds after the ignitions turn on. Also, when the system
is in “Tachless” mode, the engine running status will be determined 10 seconds
after cranking. When set for diesel, the starter output will occur 20 seconds after the
ignitions turn on to allow for glow plug warming. Also, when the system is running
in “Tachless” mode, the engine running status will be determined 40 seconds after
Feature #4 Satellite Relay Port Green Wire Function
Starter (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
Pulse After Engine Start (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
Ignition/Status Output (press the brake pedal 3 times to program)
Accessory (press the brake pedal 4 times to program)
This feature changes the operation of the Green wire (negative) on the satellite relay
port. This gives you the fl exibility to accomodate certain vehicles that require any
out-of-the-ordinary pulses or remote start timing.
Starter setting operates as a secondary START output. This will have the same
pulse timing as the large Violet wire on the main harness.
Pulse After Start gives a 0.8 second pulse after the engine starts and is running.
Ignition/Status Output setting will behave like the ignition output except it turns on
1.5 seconds earlier than the primary ignition output..
Accessory setting operates as a secondary ACCESSORY output. This will have the
same operation as the large Orange wire on the main harness.
Feature #5 Extended Starter Cranking Time
0.7 Second (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
1.00 Second (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
1.5 Seconds (press the brake pedal 3 times to program)
2.25 Seconds (press the brake pedal 4 times to program)
This feature determines the crank time of the 1st start attempt when in “Tachless”
mode. If the engine doesn’t start on the fi rst attempt, it will retry up to 3 more times
cranking. This allows the vehicle battery(s) to recharge properly and show normal
voltage levels due to the heavy drain diesel engines have on the electrical system.
extending the crank time by an additional 0.2 second with each attempt..

Steady (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
Flashing (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
This Feature confi gures the operation of the vehicle’s parking lights during the
remote start operation. The default setting turns on the parking lights during remote
start; the other setting fl ashes the parking lights on and off during remote start.
BE CHANGED BY THE INSTALLER!!!
This feature allows you to choose the number of pulses required on the White/Blue
activation wire to activate the remote start feature. All of the settings must occur
within a 5 second window of the previous pulse.
Feature #2 Engine Detection Method
Tachless Hi (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
Tachless Lo (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
Tach Wire (press the brake pedal 3 times to program)
Data Tach (press the brake pedal 4 times to program)
Crank Only (press the brake pedal 5 times to program)
This feature selects the method in which the remote start monitors the engine’s run-
ning condition in remote start mode.
“Tachless Hi” sensitivity mode has an associated base starter output time duration
(see installer feature #5) and monitors the vehicle’s voltage level to determine if the
engine is running. This setting looks for a voltage increase of 0.3v after cranking.
“Tachless Lo” sensitivity mode operates like the “Tachless Hi” setting but
The Status Light
The Status Light helps to visually confi rms the status of the system and provides
a high level of visual deterrence. The Status Light is located in the window mount
receiver unit.
Normal System Status
1) Off = The remote starter system is off, in standby mode.
2) On Constant = The system is in the Valet Mode & remote start is disabled.
Starting System Status
The Status Light also indicates the remote start status:
3) Flashing Slow (once per second): Remote start is on.
4) Flashing Fast (after activating remote start): The system is in the process of start-
ing the engine.
