General System Functions

The remote transmitter functions have been predetermined and programmed from the factory. The four button configuration allows for many functions to be
performed through a series of tapping, holding and / or multiple presses of buttons.
Sending Commands
When in range and a command has been sent, the remote will receive a page back and LED command. For example, to send a remote start command from the 2
Way remote, hold down the button for 2.5 seconds.The remote will beep once to confirm the command has been sent and that the remote is in range. Once
the vehicle has successfully remote started, the remote will receive a command indicating the vehicle is running.
Receiving Commands
The remote pager will receive commands indicating the status of the vehicle, confirmation of sending commands and remote start notifications. For example,
after sending the lock command, the pager will receive LED and chirp signals confirming that the vehicle has been successfully locked/armed. To see if your
pager is in range, hold the buttons for 2.5 seconds - if the remote receives an audible and visual confirmation then it is in range.

General System Functions
The system can be configured to passively lock and arm the vehicle. Put the system in passive by tapping
a half second. The remote will beep once and the LEDs will illuminate to indicate the system is in passive lock and arming mode.
While in passive mode, the system will lock and arm the alarm 30 seconds after the last door is closed. As an indicator that the vehicle is going
to passively lock and arm, the remote and siren will chirp once and the parking lights will flash once at both 10 and 20 seconds prior to passively locking and
arming. If you want the system to passively arm and not passively lock, ask your local Firstech dealer to turn Option 1-8 to setting II.
