To program transmitters to operate the RS unit:

1) Turn the ignition switch “On”.

2) Within 7 seconds flip the Valet Switch “on” and “off” 5 times. The parking lights will flash once, then turn back on indicating that the unit is ready to receive the first transmitter’s code.

3) Press the transmitter’s lower right “START” button. The RS unit will acknowledge learning and storing the transmitter code by turning off the parking lights, quickly flashing them once and then turning them back on.

4)Repeat the previous step for each remaining transmitter. Be sure to wait for the parking lights to turn back on before pressing the next transmitter’s “START” button.

The RS unit will automatically exit the transmitter programming mode, which is indicated by the parking lights turning off, 8 seconds after the last transmission, if the ignition switch is turned “On”, or if a fourth transmitter code is entered.

doorlocking systems or 3 seconds for certain vehicles having vacuum pump actuated doorlocking systems.

Introduction & Safety Considerations

Feature #3- “Double Unlock Pulse” is for certain newer vehicles requiring two

pulses for unlocking the doors.

Feature #4- “Engine Running Time” selects the remote start engine run period to

be 15 minutes or 30 minutes.

Feature #5- “Starter Cranking Time” slightly lengthens the starter engagement,

which is useful for vehicles which may have difficult-to-start engines.

Feature #6- “1 Or 2 Pulse Remote Start Activation” changes the Pink “Start Acti-

vation Input” wire’s operation so that two Negative pulses instead of one is required for an external device to activate the remote starting feature. This feature, explained on page 24, will allow an existing keyless entry system to activate the RS unit’s remote start feature.

Programming Transmitters

The RS-7K2 comes with two pre-programmed transmitters, but up to four transmitters total may be programmed to operate the RS unit. Each transmitter has its own unique “code”, and when a new transmitter is programmed, all previous codes will be erased. So when an additional or replacement transmitter is added to operate

Congratulations on your purchase of the RS-7K2 Keyless Entry and Remote Starter unit. The RS-7K2 offers you the convenience of locking and unlocking your vehicle’s doors with the press of a button, and the starting of your vehicle's engine from the comfort of your home or office, allowing your vehicle to warm up in winter and cool down in summer. The RS-7K2 can also be optionally configured to remotely open your vehicle’s trunk.

We highly recommend that this system be professionally installed, as the complexity of the modern automobile and the nature of circuits to be accessed is often beyond the abilities of most do-it-yourselfers.

There are several important safety considerations with using and installing the RS-7K2 keyless entry and remote starter. Among them are:

- This unit is for vehicles with an automatic transmission only. Installation in a

vehicle equipped with a manual transmission can result in property damage or personal injury.

- This unit is for fuel injected gasoline or diesel engines.

- Children should not be left unattended in, or be allowed to play with the activat-

ing transmitters of any remote starter equipped vehicle.

- Do not use the remote starter feature in an enclosed garage or other structure.

Basic Transmitter Functions

The RS-7K2 comes with two 4-button remote transmitters. Please familiarize yourself with the buttons and operations of the transmitters which are explained in the following pages.

Upper left button with “LOCK” icon

locks the doors, or activates the “carfinder” feature

•

Upper right button

• with “UNLOCK” icon

unlocks the doors

Lower right button Lower left button with “START”

activates the remote engine start feature

•

• with “OPEN TRUNK” icon

opens the trunk

3) Select the feature to be changed by flipping the Valet Switch the same number of times as the feature number; the RS-unit’s response is an equal number of parking light flashes.

4)Once the feature has been confirmed by the parking light flashes, press either the transmitter’s upper left “LOCK” button or the upper right “UNLOCK” button.

- The “LOCK” button sets the feature to the “default” position, and the RS unit will

flash the parking lights once to acknowledge receiving this command.

- The “UNLOCK” button sets the feature to the “optional” position, and the RS unit

will flash the parking lights twice to acknowledge receiving this command.

5)Select another feature by repeating step 3), or allow the unit to exit Features Programming Mode by simply not performing any programming actions- after 8 seconds the RS unit briefly turns on the parking lights to indicate its exit from Features Programming Mode.

The programmable features:

Feature #1- “Doors Lock/Unlock Upon Ignition On/Off” configures the RS unit to

automatically lock the doors when the ignition is turned “On” and unlock the doors when the ignition is turned “Off”.

Feature #2- “Door Lock Pulse Time” selects .75 second for most vehicles’ power

Receiver Module:

An essential part of the RS-7K2 is the plug-in window mount Receiver Module. The unit will not operate unless this Receiver Module is plugged-in. Select a desired mounting location for the Receiver Module; optimum performance is obtained by mounting this module high and unobstructed on the vehicle’s glass, such as the windshield behind the rearview mirror. Make sure the glass surface is clean and free of dust, grease, or debris. Peel the backing off of the adhesive tape and affix the Receiver Module. Carefully route the module’s 3-wire ribbon cable to the RS unit control module, and plug the cable into the Black 3-pin port on the rear of the module.

Valet Switch:

Mount this switch in a location that’s easily accessible to the user. Route the wires to the RS unit's control module and plug the 2-wire connector into the matching 2pin port on the control module. The Valet Switch is used to place the system into Valet Mode, Features Programming Mode, and Transmitter Programing Mode. In everyday operation, the “on” or “off” status of this switch controls Valet Mode. For the two programming modes, this switched is toggled “on” and “off” within 7 seconds of the ignition switch being turned “On” (for transmitter programming mode) or “Off” (for features programming mode).
