Installation Manual
PRE-INSTALLATION NOTES:
AUTO LOCK / UNLOCK : DIP SWITCH #1
The system is shipped with this feature activated.
Any time the ignition key is turned to the off position, the doors will automatically unlock. Any time the ignition
key is turned to the on position, the doors will automatically lock.
To disable the auto lock/unlock feature, move dip switch number 1 to the "off" position.
PASSIVE / ACTIVE DOOR LOCK SELECTION: DIP SWITCH #2
This feature will only affect the operation of the system if the passive arming feature is selected.
When active door lock is selected, the doors will only lock when the transmitter button is pressed. When the
alarm is allowed to arm passively, at the end of the 30 second arming cycle, the doors will not automatically
lock. The system is shipped in the active door lock mode, therefore, no modifications are required for this feature.
When passive door lock is selected, when the alarm is allowed to arm passively, at the end of the 30 second
arming cycle, the doors will automatically lock. To program this feature, move dip switch number 2 to the on
position.
PASSIVE / ACTIVE ARMING SELECTION: DIP SWITCH #3
This alarm can be programmed to operate as either a "PASSIVE" or "ACTIVE" arming security system.
As a "Passive" alarm, the system will automatically arm itself approximately 30 seconds after the ignition key
is turned off, one door is opened, then all vehicle doors are closed, (arming is suspended until the last door is
closed). This feature protects the vehicle in the event you forget to arm the system using the keychain transmitter.
When the optional door lock interface is installed, the doors will operate according to the position of dip switch
number 2.
This system is shipped in the passive mode, therefore no modifications are required to make the system operate
as a "Passive" alarm.
As an "Active" alarm, the system can only be armed using the keychain transmitter. There will be no backup
automatic arming.
To make the system operate as an "Active" alarm, move dip switch number 3 to the off position.
VOLTAGE SENSE / HARDWIRE SELECTION: DIP SWITCH #4
This alarm can be wired to operate as a Voltage Sensing or a Hardwire system.
As a voltage sensing system, the alarm will trigger any time an entry point that illuminates a courtesy light is
opened. The system is shipped in the voltage sensing mode, therefore, no modifications are required to make
this system a voltage sensing alarm.
As a hardwire system, the alarm will trigger any time a door, hood, trunk, etc. is opened, by wiring directly to
the switches. This means that if the courtesy light is burned out, or the courtesy light fuse is blown, the alarm
will continue to protect all points of entry. To make this system operate as a hardwire alarm, move dip switch
number 4 to the off position.
NOTE: When "Passive Arming" and "Voltage Sensing" are selected, you must hardwire the driver's door pin
switch or passive arming will never be initiated.

    DASH MOUNTED LED: A small red LED is included that will serve as a visual indicator of the alarm status. It should be installed in the dash, located where it can be easily seen from outside the vehicle, yet not be distracting to the driver. Once a location has been selected, check behind the panel for wire routing access and to confirm the drill will not damage any existing components as it passes through the panel.

    These applications require the use of additional components which may include relays, fixed resistors, or for convenience, the AS 9159 Door Lock Interface. Refer to the AUDIOVOX Door Lock Wiring Supplement and or the Audiovox fax back service for information on your particular vehicle for properly connecting to these types of circuits.
