THEN WITHIN
10 SECONDS
System Armed & Activated
Regardless of the method used to Arm the alarm, once Armed, the alarm will
monitor all protected zones, and if an intrusion attempt is detected it will activate,
or “trigger”.
A trigger consists of the following:
• The electronic siren will start sounding.
• The parking lights will flash on and off repeatedly.
An activation has a 30 second duration unless the system is disarmed using the
remote control or the Valet /Override switch. If all protected zones are secure at
the end of the trigger, the system will stop and rearm itself to detect further entry
attempts. If a protected zone is still open at the end of the trigger cycle, the alarm
will continue to re-trigger itself for up to six activated cycles before it resets itself
and ignores the violated zone.

“••” Button for 3 Seconds.
Hold 3 seconds
- The Auxiliary Channel cannot be activated if the vehicle's ignition is "On".
Digital Tilt Sensor
This security system is equipped with a dual stage Digital Tilt Sensor to increase
it’s effectiveness. Each time the alarm is armed, the tilt sensor enters a 5 second
learning period in which it automatically samples it’s current position. If there is
any deviation from this position while armed, the alarm will prewarn or trigger. If
a change in position is detected for less than 2 seconds, the system will prewarn.
If the change is detected for longer, the system will enter a full trigger mode. The
sensor’s sensitivity is adjustable by remote using the following procedure.
To Adjust the Tilt Sensor:
With the System Armed or Disarmed Press & Hold the “•••” Button
for 5 seconds.
• The siren will emit a long chirp.

endicate it has exited the sensitivity
adjustment mode.
• The parking lights will flash twice.
(Or the horn will sound if connected)
The LED Status Indicator
The LED Status Indicator visually shows the status of the alarm and also provides
a high level of visual deterrence. The LED Status Indicator Light is normally
mounted where it can be seen by others.
Security System Status: The primary function of the LED Status Indicator Light
is to indicate the normal operating status of the security system:
Off = The system is disarmed or in sleep mode and not performing any automatic
functions.
Flashing Slow = The system is fully Armed.
Flashing Fast (while Disarmed) = Automatic Arming is enabled.

Programmable Features
The alarm has 7 programmable features which allow it to be customized to suite
many individual needs. The following pages provide a brief explanation for each
feature, and notes its factory default setting.
• = Default Factory Setting
1. PIN Code: (• 1 - 9)
- Press the Controller “Arm” button equal to the desired customized PIN Code,
but wait, after each button press for a single Status Light flash and horn chirp
confirmation. When you reach the disired number, wait for the siren to chirp the
complete total number or presses.
Example: For a PIN Code of “3 presses”, programming would be: enter Programmable Features Mode, select “feature 1” and the unit will chirp 1 time. Press “Arm”
button 3 times and the unit will chirp for each button press. Now wait 2 seconds until
the unit chirps 3 times. Exit programming mode, and the PIN Code is now 3 presses
of the Valet switch.

Wiring Description
6 Pin Connector:
Red Wire - (Constant Power Input): The Red wire supplies constant Positive
12 Volts for the system's operation.
CONNECTION: Connect this wire to a Positive battery voltage; both wires
must be connected. One source is the battery's Positive terminal, and another
potential source is the power supply wires at the ignition switch.
If the battery is selected as the power source, and the Red wire must
extended, the added wire must be at least the same gauge, or preferably
heavier, than the Red wire.
Some vehicles have a Constant 12 Volt circuit supplying the ignition switch,
while others have multiple supply circuits. A schematic of the vehicles
electrical system will show which of these is the case.
In either case, the included fuse holder and a 15 amp fuse must be used.
The fuse holders should always be close to the power source connection, not
the control module. Remove the 15 amp fuse before making the holders’
connection, and only reinsert it after all of the other wiring connections have
been made. Caution! The use of the 15 amp fuse and the fuse holder are
required! Failure to properly install the fuse holder and the 15 amp fuse
will void all warranties.
20ga Black Wire - (Ground): The Black wire provides Negative ground for the
system; proper connection of this wire is very important.
CONNECTION: Using the correctly sized crimp-on ring terminal, connect
the Black wire to the metal frame of the vehicle, preferably using an existing
machine-threaded fastener. Make sure that the ring terminal attached to the
Black wire has contact with bright, clean metal. If necessary, scrape any paint,
rust or grease away from the connection point until the metal is bright and clean.
If the control module has an insufficient ground connection, the security system
can find partial ground through the wires that are connected to other circuits,
and function, but not correctly. As the system can partially operate, a bad
ground wire connection would not likely be suspected, and in many cases a
poor ground is difficult to diagnose.
Page 9
Wiring Description
Yellow Wire - (Ignition Input): This connection is critical to the proper operation
of many of the security system's features. The Yellow wire is an ignition "on" input
to the security system.
CONNECTION: This wire must be connected to the vehicle's Ignition (also
known as Primary Ignition) wire. The proper vehicle wire will measure Positive 12
Volts when the ignition key is in the "Run" and "Start" positions and no voltage
in the "Off" and "Accessory" positions. This wire is found in the ignition switch
wiring harness.
18ga Black Wires - These wires are used to interupt the starter wire on the
vehicle.
CONNECTION: Cut the start wire on the vehicle and attach one Black
wire to each end. This will disable the starter when the alarm is in an armed
state.
9 Pin Connector:
Orange Wire - (Ground when Armed Output): The Orange wire is a Ground
when Armed ouput which is active when the security system is in an armed state.
Brown Wire - (Positive Siren Output): The Brown wire is a 1 Amp Positive
output designed to operate the electronic siren for audible confirmations, and to
sound if the alarm is triggered.
SIREN CONNECTION: The Brown wire may be connected directly to the
siren's Red wire, and the siren's Black wire is connected to (-) Ground.
SIREN MOUNTING: Find a location away from the extreme heat of the engine
and manifold. A suitable location will offer a firm mounting surface, will also allow
sound dispersion out of the chosen location, and not be accessible to a thief. The
siren must not be pointed upward to avoid moisture getting inside it.
SIREN CHIRPS: The siren itself can be set for loud or less loud confirmation
chirps by refering to the Programming Features on page 8.
Brown/ Red Wire - (Parking Light/ Horn Input): This wire is provided for
selecting polarityof the Brown/White wires.
CONNECTION: The polarity of the Parking Light/ Horn Input must be determined and connected a Positive or Negative source. Determine which polarity
the vehicle uses to operate the Parking Light or Horn; this is either “Negative
polarity” or “Positive polarity”. Then, connect the Brown/Red wire to Positive or
Negative as needed. After connection of the Brown/Red wire is completed, the
next step is to connect the Brown/White wires to the parking lights or the horn
wire. The 10 amp fuse and fuse holder must be used. Failure to do so
will void all warranties.
Page 10
Wiring Description
Brown/White Wires (2) - (Parking Light/ Horn Outputs): This is an output to
flash the vehicle's parking lights for visual arming/disarming confirmation, or
horn honk which is to attract audible attention while the system is activated.
CONNECTION: Connect these wires to the vehicle's parking light circuit,
which can usually be found at the at the headlight switch or at the light itself.
Some Motorcycles have a left and a right parking light circuit which is when both
Brown/White wires would be used to isolate each circuit. These wires can also
be connected to the horn wire usually found at the horn button.
Blue Wire - Negative Instant Trigger: The Blue wire is a Negative instant
trigger which can be used for an optional sensor.
CONNECTION: This wire may be used with a mercury type of tilt switch or
any other optional sensor that may be desired.
Pink Wire - Negative Auxiliary Output: The Pink wire is an optional output
operated by the remotes “••” button.
CONNECTION: If the target wire is Positive switching, and/or draws more
than 250mA, an optional relay must be used. To configure a relay to the Pink
wire, connect it to relay pin (85), and connect a fused Constant Positive 12 V olts
to relay pin (86). Connect pin (30) to power, or ground, as needed. Pin #87 is the
output, and connected to the target wire.
Grey Wire - V alet: This Grey wire connects to the small grey wire located on
the LED/V alet switch that comes with the unit.
Red/Blue Wire - LED Status Light: This Red/Blue wire connects to the small
Red wire on the LED/V alet switch that comes with the unit.
