remote control communication

Below are descriptions of the functions and features the remote

control uses to communicate information.

Command send: to send a command to the system, press

•

the buttons for the desired function as described above. While the

remote control is transmitting, the screen will play the transmit

animation.

11

Note: If the remote control does not play the transmitting anima‑

tion, the remote control did not transmit the command.

Command response: one second after the system receives

•

and implements a command; it will transmit a command response

to the activating remote control. The remote control will play the

appropriate Notification output.

Note: If more than one remote control is programmed to the

system, a command update will follow ten seconds later.

Command Update: a command update is sent to keep

•

additional remote controls in sync with the current system state.

The command update remote control Notification will be a

repeat of the command response.

Note: If only one remote control is programmed to the system, a

command update IS NOT sent.

Page: a Page is a single transmission five seconds long to

•

all programmed remote controls.

A page is transmitted when the system state changes by means

other than a command from a remote control. Usually it is due to

an alarm warn or full trigger, a timer mode remote start, a remote

start shutdown, or the Car Call feature is activated.

Notification: a remote control Notification is the audible

•

beeps and animation output after the remote control receives

a command response, command update, or a page from the

system.

12

• Alarm Page Alert: an alarm page alert is a single beep that

repeats every sixty seconds after an alarm warn or full trigger

page has been received. It will continue to beep until it has been

cleared by the user.

Alarm Page: to clear an Alarm Page Alert, press any button

•

on the remote control.

Until the alert is cleared, the buttons on the remote control will

not transmit commands.

a. During Alarm Page Notification: press any button while

the Notification is playing, the alert will clear and the animation

will stop.

b. After Notification: press any button after the Notification,

the alert will clear and the animation will replay without the

beeps.

Out of Range: If the remote control does not receive a

•

command response with a few seconds of sending a command,

it will assume it is out‑of‑range and will play the appropriate

Notification.

notification replay feature

The notification replay feature allows you to replay the most recent

remote control Notification animation. This feature is convenient

for reviewing the detail for the Notification such as remote start

on/off, alarm page etc.

13

To replay, simultaneously press and release the “

” & “ ”

buttons. The screen will replay the animation once without beeps.

remote control maintenance

This remote control needs no specific maintenance beyond charging

of the remote control battery. It is powered by a 4.3V/600mA

Lithium Ion battery that will last approximately 1 week on a full

charge under normal use. Excessive viewing of on-screen anima-

tions will quickly diminish the battery charge.

The Battery Level icon has three bars as a visual indication of

battery charge. When the battery level icon displays one bar, the

battery charger should be connected promptly to assure uninter-

rupted operation. The remote control battery level icon is displayed

during each Notification and Notification replay.

charging the remote control battery

To charge the battery in the 2way color remote control plug the

AC adapter into a 115V AC wall socket and the other end into the

charging port of the Remote Control.

The charging time will depend on the battery charge level when

connected. If completely discharged, the battery will reach ½ charge

in about 25 minutes and full charge in approximately 2 hours.

a command signal from the remote control. Therefore, never

operate the system in an enclosed area or partially enclosed

area without ventilation (such as a garage). When parking

in an enclosed or partially enclosed area or when having the

vehicle serviced, the remote start system must be disabled

using the installed toggle switch. It is the user's sole responsi-

bility to properly handle and keep out of reach from children

all remote control remote controls to assure that the system

does not unintentionally remote start the vehicle. THE USER

MUST INSTALL A CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR

IN OR ABOUT THE LIVING AREA ADJACENT

TO THE VEHICLE. ALL DOORS LEADING FROM

ADJACENT LIVING AREAS TO THE ENCLOSED OR

PARTIALLY ENCLOSED VEHICLE STORAGE AREA

MUST AT ALL TIMES REMAIN CLOSED.

mode of operation may result in property damage, personal

These precau-

15

injury, or death. (1) Never remotely start the vehicle with the

vehicle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with

the keys in the ignition. The user must also have the neutral

safety feature of the vehicle periodically checked, wherein the

vehicle must not remotely start while the car is in gear. This

testing should be performed by an authorized Directed dealer

in accordance with the Safety Check outlined in the product

installation guide. If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote

start operation immediately and consult with the authorized

Directed dealer to fix the problem.

➤ After the remote start module has been installed, contact

your authorized dealer to have him or her test the remote

start module by performing the Safety Check outlined in

the product installation guide. If the vehicle starts when

performing the Neutral Safety Shutdown Circuit test,

the remote start unit has not been properly installed. The

how your vehicle is protected when armed:

This alarm includes many layers of protection against theft. These include visual deterrent, exterior protection, entry point protection and engine immobilization.

The visible status led warns thieves that the vehicle is protected

19

while exterior protection is provided via dual stage shock sensor. Entry point protection is provided by connection to the vehicle wiring system and engine immobilization is provided by a hidden starter kill relay.

Alarm triggers will activate the siren and lights to draw atten tion to any trigger event and immediately send an Alarm Page to the remote control. The remote control will play an Alarm Page Notification that consists of beeps and animation to inform you of the trigger event.

multi-level arming

Multi-level arming allows you to choose the level of vehicle protection

each time the alarm is armed.

It is also a convenient way to avoid sensor triggers when parking in

environmentally questionable areas such as airports, construction

zones or during inclement weather.

After arming, if within 1 second the system receives arm signals from

the remote control it will chirp the siren and bypass selected zones for

each signal.

and

remote start safety features

This system has several important safety features to ensure proper

operation of the motor and prevent accidental damage to the engine

or its components.

➜

starter anti-grind circuitry

Whenever the vehicle is remote started, advanced anti-grind circuitry

prevents the starter from engaging, even if the key is turned to the

start position. This prevents damage to the starter motor if the key is

turned to the start position during remote start operation.

note: Anti-grind circuitry only works when the remote start system is operating the motor and the Failsafe® Starter Kill relay is installed.

➜

disabling the remote start system

This feature allows your system's remote start unit to be temporarily

disabled to prevent the vehicle from being remote started acciden-

tally. This feature is useful if the vehicle is being serviced or stored

in an enclosed area. To disable the remote start, move the shutdown

toggle switch to the OFF position. The switch can be installed in a

location of your choice. Check with your installer for recommended

locations.

Location of Shutdown Switch____________________________

37

➜

over and under rev protection

The system monitors the engine speed and will automatically shut the

engine off if the RPMs rise above or fall below the programmed levels.

This feature prevents damage to the motor due to fuel delivery system

failures or other problems which may cause the engine to race.

note: The system uses a wire connected to the vehicle to sense engine speed. This wire must be connected in order for over and under rev protection to work.

➜

shut down inputs

This security system uses several inputs to shut down the remote start

operation of the motor or prevent remote start if certain inputs are

active. The two most important are hood and brake inputs. The hood

input will prevent the motor from starting, as well as shut it down, any

time the hood is opened. The brake pedal will shut down the motor

at any time during remote start operation, as well as preventing the

remote start from activating while it is being pressed.

38

diagnostics

The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly moni-

toring all of the switches and sensors connected to it. It is designed

to detect any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from

disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will record and

report any triggers that occurred during your absence.

➜

arming diagnostics

Each time this system is armed it runs a diagnostic routine to test for

active alarm inputs. If inputs are active when arming, it will bypass

the input and report the bypass to the user as described under active

arming in the using your system section.

The status led will also flash the same number of times as the bypassed

input as a visual indicator.

When the input returns to the inactive state, the system will begin

monitoring it for an alarm trigger input.

This feature assures that the vehicle will always be armed and protected

by the maximum available number of alarm inputs.

➜

disarming diagnostics

If any alarm inputs were triggered while armed, it will be reported to

the user during the disarming operation as described under Disarm

after trigger in the using your system section.

The status led will also flash the same number of times as the trig

gered input as a visual indicator.

‑

39

note: sensor inputs that are triggered too many times will

be bypassed using a feature called NPC for Nuisance

Prevention.

➜

nuisance prevention circuitry

This diagnostic feature monitors the sensor inputs for excessive trig‑

gers and bypasses them automatically to avoid annoying repeated trig

gers.

how it works

If any sensor input is triggered 3 times within a one hour period,

it will be bypassed for one hour. The input will still be moni

tored, but the alarm will not sound if a trigger is detected..

If the input is triggered while bypassed, the one hour bypass

timer will start over. This will assure that a repeatedly triggered

input will remain bypassed until stable for at least one hour.

resetting the sensor input

A bypassed sensor input will reset automatically if not triggered

for one hour. To reset a bypassed sensor input manually the igni

tion must be turned on, disarming and rearming the alarm will

not reset a bypassed input

system status chirps

The siren will chirp when arming/disarming the system. The pattern

of chirps will audibly report the system’s status as described next.

zone identification

This system has several inputs (or zones) that can trigger the alarm

while armed. Each zone input is identified by an icon on the remote

control and by groups of flashes by the status led.

Use the following table to identify each zone by icon and number, and

the sensor or vehicle circuit it is connected to.

code hopping

The receiver and remote controls use a mathematical formula called

an algorithm to change their code each time the remote control is

used. This technology has been developed to increase the security of

the unit. The control unit knows what the next codes should be. This

helps to keep the remote control “in sync” with the control unit even

if you use the remote control out of range of the vehicle. However, if

the remote has been pressed many times out of range of the vehicle,

42

or the battery has been removed, it may fall out of sync with the control

unit and fail to operate the system. To re-sync the remote simply press

several times within range of the vehicle. The alarm will auto-

matically re-sync and respond to the remote controls normally.

owner recognition

Owner Recognition is a revolutionary feature available only from

Directed. Using a Directed Bitwriter®, hand-held programming tool,

your dealer can program many of the system settings. The programmer

makes it possible to program different settings for each remote control

that is used with the system. Then, whenever a specific remote control

is used, the system will recall the settings assigned to that remote

control. Owner Recognition lets up to four users of the system have

different settings that meet their specific needs. It is almost like having

four separate alarms in your vehicle, one for each user.

note: Owner Recognition cannot be programmed without a Bitwriter and the necessary software. Check with your dealer for more information.

rapid resume logic

This Directed system will store its current state to non-volatile

memory. If power is lost and then reconnected the system will recall

the stored state from memory. This means if the unit is in Valet Mode

43

and the battery is disconnected for any reason, such as servicing the

car, when the battery is reconnected the unit will still be in Valet

Mode. This applies to all states of the system including arm, disarm,

and Valet Mode.

power saver mode

Your system will automatically enter Power Saver Mode while armed

or in Valet Mode, after a period of time in which no operation has

been performed. This lowers the current draw on the vehicle's battery.

Power Saver Mode takes over under the following conditions:

➤ Power Saver when the system is armed: After the system

has been armed for 24 hours the LED will flash at half its

normal rate, decreasing the system's current draw.

➤ Power Saver in Valet Mode: When the system enters Valet

Mode the LED illuminates steadily. If the vehicle is not used

(ignition is not turned on) for a one hour period while the

system is in Valet Mode, the LED will shut off. If the system

remains in Valet Mode, the LED will come back on the next

time the ignition is turned on and then back off.

security & convenience expansion

Listed below are some of the many expansion options available. Please

consult your dealer for a complete explanation of all the options avail-

able to you.

Audio Sensor: Metal on glass, glass cracking, and breaking glass

each produce distinctive acoustic signatures. The 506T audio

sensor uses a microphone to pick up sounds, and then analyzes

them with proprietary acoustic software to determine if the glass

has been struck.

Backup Battery: The 520T keeps the system armed, triggers the

alarm and keeps the starter kill active if main battery power is

disconnected.

Field Disturbance Sensor: An invisible dome of coverage is estab‑

lished by installing the 508D "radar" sensor. Your security

system can then react to any intrusions into this field with the

triggered sequence.

Garage Door: Remote control of your system can go beyond

your vehicle. You can also control your automatic garage door

using the 519H2 garage door opener with your remote control.

Ask you dealer for details. Additional parts and labor required.

Headlight and Parking Light Automation: The 545T Nite‑Lite®

51

will automatically turn on your parking and headlights when it

gets dark. In addition, the 545T will turn your headlights on

whenever the windshield wipers are used. A transmitter function

can also be used to turn on your parking and headlights for a
