REMOTE TRANSMITTER BUTT ONS

Transmitter Icons

NOTE: Transmitter cosmetics may differ between models and between standard 1-way and LCD 2-way transmitters, but button functions remain the same as described below.

Each transmitter button has two operating modes: standard and level shifted. Pressing a transmitter button for less than one second activates the standard function associated with that button (such as arm or disarm). Pressing a button for more than one second changes the color of the standard transmitter’s LED to green and activates the level shift feature. While the LED is green (level shifted),pressing any transmitter button accesses another level of commands providing expanded operation.

ARMING OPERATION

To arm the system press transmitter button 1:

• The siren will chirp once.

• The parking lights will flash once.*

• The doors will lock.*

• The LED will turn solid for 10 seconds then start flashing slowly. After 10 seconds the system is armed.

During Arming, if an open hood or trunk is detected, the system will wait 10 seconds for the zone to close. If a door is open the system will wait up to 60 seconds for the zone to close (depending on door zone setting during installation). If a zone remains open after the wait period, the siren will chirp, the parking lights will flash 4 times to indicate the zone is still open. The system will then ignore that zone, but keep all other areas protected.

While Armed, the system will trigger if:

• The door,hood,or trunk is opened.

• The shock sensor detects an impact.

• An optional sensor is disturbed.

When triggered by the door or hood/trunk input the siren will sound, the horn will honk, and the parking lights will flash for 30 seconds. If triggered by a sensor,the alarm cycle will last 15 seconds. If the alarm is triggered while the optional remote start is engaged, the remote start will immediately shut down.

If a zone triggers the system 3 times during a single arming cycle, the system will bypass that zone, keeping the other zones protected, until the next time the system is armed.

If the shock sensor detects a light impact to the vehicle or an optional sensor is disturbed, the system will chirp and the parking lights will flash 5 times to warn away the potential intruder. *

• ORANGE/VIOLET WIRE - Glow plug light

input (+). For diesel vehicles without a glow plug wire, no connection is needed. A 10second timer will engage before cranking the starter. Most diesel vehicles will have a glow plug wire located in the instrument cluster. For these vehicles,test the wire to confirm proper operation and connect to it. Negative glow plug wire systems will show +12V when the the glow plug (wait-to-start) light is on, then show ground when the light turns off. Positive glow plug wire systems will show ground when the wait-to-start light is on. The ORANGE/VIOLET wire automatically senses the system type and should be connected directly to the glow plug wire. When using the glow plug input,program Remote Start Programmable Feature #9 with button 2. For vehicles without a glow plug wire, a 10-second timer will automatically countdown before cranking the starter if no glow plug connection is sensed.

• PINK WIRE - Auxiliary start input (-). This

wire can be used as an optional auxiliary start or stop input when connected to an external device that supplies a pulsed ground output.

• BLACK/RED WIRE - Ground when running output (-). This wire provides a ground when the remote start is engaged to activate an optional factory security bypass module.

• ORANGE/GRAY WIRE - Hood trigger (-). Connect this wire to an optional hood pin switch.The switch must provide a ground when the switch is opened.

NOTE: If the ORANGE/GRAY wire on the alarm module is already connected to the hood pin,this wire may be left disconnected.

• YELLOW/BLACK WIRE - Factory disarm output (-). The YELLOW/BLACK wire can be programmed for use as a Factory Disarm output, Ignition 3 output, Pulsed Defrosted output,or Latched Defroster output.

Factory Disarm (default): Connect to the wire that requires a ground pulse to disarm the factory alarm. The YELLOW/BLACK wire will pulse on disarm or remote start.

Ignition 3: For vehicles with a 3rd ignition circuit,the YELLOW/BLACK wire may used to trigger a relay for Ignition 3 power supply.

Defroster: Most rear defroster circuits are usually activated by either a pulsed or latched output from a switch in the vehicle. Test the vehicle’s switch with a multi-meter to determine the type of activation pulse required, and also verify that the defroster automatically turns off when the defroster cycle is complete. Connect the YELLOW/BLACK wire to a relay to trigger the vehicle’s defroster circuit and program Remote Start Programmable Feature #8 for the proper circuit type. See Remote Start

REMOTE START NOTES Smart Start and Tach Star t

In order for the system to properly start and run the vehicle, the unit must be able to determine if the engine is cranking or if the engine is actually running. This system is equipped with two means of detecting the engine’s run status: Smart Start and Tach Start.

The Smart Start featur e detects the engine’s run status using specially designed software that interprets certain characteristics of the engine, without connection to the vehicle’s tachometer

wire.This feature allows a faster installation,but may not be compatible with all vehicles, or under extreme temperatures.

The Tach Start feature requires connection the the vehicle’s tachometer wire, or an injector wire if the tach wire is not available. The Tach Start provides reliable operation with virtually any vehicle,even under extreme temperatures.

T ach Wire Locator

To aid in the locating and testing of a suitable tach wire, the start module is equipped with a LED that flashes to indicate presence of a RPM signal. T o use this tach locator,set dip switch #6 to On and be sure dip switch #2 is set for RPM (Off). With the engine running, probe the suspected tach wire with the Gray/Black wire (tach input). The LED will begin flashing if the Gray/Black wire is reading a proper tach signal. If the LED does not flash, continue testing suspected tach wires until the correct wire is found. After the proper tach wire is located and all start module connections have been made, test the remote start by pressing the engine start button on the module located next to the RPM signal LED. If the engine starts and runs properly, press the button again to stop the engine.

Gas and Diesel Modes The default setting for the engine mode is Gas

Engine. For diesel vehicles,the engine type for

dip switch #5 must be set to Diesel Engine. When programmed for diesel engines, the Orange/Violet wire (glow plug input) is monitored to make sure the glow plugs have warmed up before the engine begins cranking.If the glow plug wire is not connected, the unit has a built-in timer that waits 10 seconds before cranking the starter.

BYPASSING FACTORY THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEMS

Many newer vehicles are now factory-equipped with anti-theft systems that use either a resistor coded key or a passive transponder that disables the fuel system unless a properly coded key is inserted into the ignition cylinder. To integrate a remote starter into these vehicles, you must determine which type of factory anti-theft system is equipped, then use the proper bypass module for that system.

General Motors Anti-theft Systems:

Many late-model GM vehicles are equipped with one of three basic anti-theft systems; Passkey, Passlock, and Passkey 3. Standard Passkey systems are easily identified by the resistor chip visible on the shaft of the key. Passlock systems do not rely on a resistor equipped key. Instead they use a resistance code generated when the key is turned in the ignition cylinder. Both of these systems have an anti-theft indicator in the instrument cluster. To properly interface into these systems and retain full functionality of the factory anti-theft system, VATS/PASSLOCK bypass module must be installed.

The Passkey 3 system, which is found on GM vehicles 1999 and newer,is a transponder based system described below.

interface into transponder systems, a transponder bypass module must be installed. These modules allow full functionality of the factory anti-theft system and usually require the use of a spare key.

ADDING TRANSMITTERS

To add a new transmitter to the system have the desired transmitters ready and follow the Code Learning sequence.

To enter Code Learning Mode:

1. Turn the ignition on,off,on,off and leav e on.

• The siren will chirp.

2. Press the Override switch.

• The status LED will turn on red.

• The siren will chirp.

3. Press the Lock Button on the transmitter.

• The siren will chirp.

4. Repeat step 3 for each additional transmitter, up to four total transmitters.

5. Turn off the ignition.

• The siren will chirp 3 times.

NO TE:If a transmitter is lost or stolen,make sure to code all 4 transmitter memory locations. (Example: If only one transmitter is used,repeat step 3 three more times to remove any previously programmed transmitters .)

Passive T ransponder Systems:

Passive transponder systems have become the most popular anti-theft system among vehicle manufacturers (Ford, Honda, BMW, Toyota, Nissan and others). This system requires use of a tiny passive transmitter housed in the base of the key. This device activates when placed close to the vehicle’s ignition switch. The starter will usually crank but the fuel system will be disabled, not allowing the vehicle to run, if the transponder is not detected. To properly

STARTER DEFEAT RELAY WIRING DIAGRAMS

The Starter Defeat/Anti-Grind relay socket can be wired in either normally closed or normally open configuration. In either configuration, the Starter Defeat relay also provides Anti-Grind protection during remote start control,to prevent accidentally grinding the starter if attempting to start the vehicle using the key. The main unit default setting is normally closed operation.

In normall

y closed configuration (default),the starter is only disabled when the alarm is power ed up and in the armed state. In the event power to the alarm module is disconnected,the vehicle will be able to start using the key, even if the alarm had been armed prior to power loss. The normally closed configuration is considered a fail-safe because the vehicle will still start if the alarm loses power (blown fuse,etc.). This is the recommended installation method.

The normall

y open configuration provides a higher level of security by only allowing the vehicle to start if the system powered up and is in the disarmed state. If power to the system is lost for any reason, even while disarmed, the vehicle will be unable to start. The normally open configuration provides the highest level of security but without fail-safe. If the normally open configuration is selected,Programmable Alarm Feature step 10 must be set to button 2.
