Both the CS2011RS & CS2015FM include a Tach-less engine monitor called "Smart Tachless" mode. When in
"Smart Tachless" mode, the module actively monitors the vehicle's voltage reference each time a remote start is
performed. Smart Tachless mode will adjust itself to maintain optimum efficiency over the life of the life of the
installation.
No Tach wire is required for Smart Tachless mode. The Smart Tachless system works from the existing +12V
power connection of the unit.
DO NOT USE or CONNECT WHITE/RED TACH WIRE FOR SMART TACHLESS MODE!
SMART TACHLESS JUMPERS: (Remove Access Door on top of module)
The purpose of the jumpers is to reduce the starter cranking time [if needed] when in "Smart Tachless" mode only.
To shorten the crank time by one percent remove jumper #P2. Test the unit and see if the decrease is correct. If a
shorter crank time is still required, then remove Jumper #P1, which will reduce the cranking time by another percent.
Test the unit and see if the decrease is correct. These are the only two "Smart Tachless" adjustments.
IMPORTANT SMART TACHLESS NOTES:
(1) Smart Tachless Mode is NOT guaranteed to work on EVERY vehicle. Occasionally, older vehicles, Dual-Battery
Systems, or out-of-tune vehicles will not operate properly in Smart Tachless Mode.
(2) SMART TACHLESS RESET INFORMATION: When using the Smart Tachless mode, it is critical the system
receives a good voltage reference from the vehicle. If your vehicle was just recently driven into the shop and has
a fully charged battery, or you have attempted many remote starts in a row, you may need to reset the system's
voltage reference for proper Smart Tachless performance. RESET PROCEDURE: Remove the 2 in-line fuses
on the Power Leads, turn the vehicle's headlights on for 4 minutes, turn off headlights, and re-install fuses.
(3) If Smart Tachless Mode will not work for your vehicle, use the Tach Reference Mode, or Timed Crank Mode.
TACH (RPM) REFERENCE MODE & TACH FINDER FEATURE
Tach Reference Mode provides reliable remote starting performance though engine speed sensing. When using
Tach Reference Mode, the WHITE/RED wire is used for Tach signal [Engine RPM] input. Most modern engines
include various points where the Engine Speed [Tach] or A/C signal may be obtained. Tach Signal examples:
Negative (-) side of ignition coil, at the Distributor or Ignition Control Module, Coil Pack, Engine Computer, or
Crankshaft Sensor. Sometimes Fuel injection solenoids, and Alternator stator pins can be used. These Tach Signal
locations mentioned are provided as a guide, your vehicle may differ. Some locations will NOT be a good location
for Tach source due to RF noise or Computer Data. Use the TACH FINDER feature to locate a valid tach source.
