  • Page 25: Short-Run/Turbo

    ➜ Short-run/turbo Short run turbo mode keeps the engine running after arriving at you destination for a programmable period of 1, 3, 5 or 10 minutes. This allows the system’s timer to conveniently cool down the turbo after you have left the vehicle. To activate: Park the vehicle and set parking brake.
  • Page 26: Starter Anti-Grind Circuitry

    ➜ 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.
  • Page 27: Nuisance Prevention Circuitry

    ➜ Nuisance prevention Your system has Directed’s Nuisance Prevention (NPC). It prevents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin switches or environmental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc. Example If the alarm triggers three times within a 60-minute period and each time the same sensor or switch triggers the alarm, NPC will interpret those triggers as false alarms.
  • Page 28: Arming Diagnostics

    Diagnostics The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly monitoring 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 also record and report any triggers that occurred during your absence.
  • Page 29: Disarming Diagnostics

    ➜ Disarming diagnostics Extra chirps that are heard when disarming the system are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard when disarming the system, then the security system was triggered in your absence. If five chirps are heard when disarming the system, a zone was trig- gered so many times that the Nuisance Protection bypassed that zone.
