used with an optional remote starting unit; the remote "start" icon (below) will
operate, but not this icon.
• The "CARJACK" icon within the vehicle's front tag frame indicates that this
operation has been activated, which can be performed by any of three methods.
• On the vehicle's windshield is a "hammer" and "impact" icon. When the shock
sensor detects light impact, causing the system to prewarn, the "impact" icon
alone will momentarily appear, accompanied by three chirps. If the sensor
detects a harder impact or breaking glass, activating the system, the full
hammer and impact icon appears, and the controller chips until any button is
pressed, and the icon remains flashing until the ignition switch is turned on.
• The "DOOR" icon will indicate that the system was activated via the door
detection circuit. The controller chirps until any button is pressed, and the
icon remains flashing until the ignition is turned on.
• If an optional remote start unit is added to the 750i
rear of the vehicle can confirm remote starting, and it is accompanied by a
musical melody. The 3rd channel must be operated first, and then if the 750i
detects that the ignition circuit is turned on it will display this icon.
• The "2" within a circle indicates use of the 2nd Channel Output, which is most
commonly used for a remote trunk release feature.
• The "transmitting tower" icon is an in-range indicator. It is present if the last
transmission by the controller was answered by a return signal from the
system. Should the controller be operated, and no return signal is received,
this icon will disappear.
• The various lines at the upper rear of the vehicle graphic represent a unique
Crime Guard feature which allows the user to customize the vehicle type repre-
sented by the display. Options are: passenger car, pickup truck, and sport utility/
van.
• The system will only transmit a signal to the controller if it was last used to
operate the system (as in arming or disarming it). Example: if the 1-way trans-
mitter is used to arm the alarm, the system will not transmit a signal which will
cause the 2-way controller to chirp and change its icons.
Notes about the Controller and its operation:
• If multiple controllers are programmed to operate the system, the system will
send a page signal to only one controller- the last one used.

• When the 750i system does send a signal to the controller, a few seconds is
needed for this wireless "handshake" to occur. If the system is operated in a

rapid fashion, as in quickly repeating arm and disarm cycles, the controller will
not have time to receive the signal from the system, and therefore it will stop re-
sponding and reporting the system's status. Normally operating the system
corrects this symptom.
• A final point to remember is that the controller cannot receive a signal from the
5
750i system while it itself is transmitting. For normal operations, the con-
troller's buttons are pressed and released. Even when "Panic" is operated, the
controller button should be released as soon as "Panic" engages. Otherwise,
the controller cannot receive the signal from the system.
Programming the Controller:
The 2-way controller has several user-programmable features:
Chirp or Mute The chirps may be turned off, and replaced with vibration.
Vehicle Type Choices are a passenger car, pickup truck, or van/SUV.
Time Adjust To set the controller's clock time.
Start Melody; and Stop Melody These are played with remote starting.
Programming these features is a sequential process- the controller is placed into
programming mode, then each programmable operation is accessed in turn, and either

changed as desired, or left as is, and then the next step is accessed. Programming is
done using the Echo unit's three round side buttons:

2) After 5 seconds the controller chirps twice; release the "P" but-
ton; the upper rear of the vehicle will flash; Vehicle Type may be chosen.
3) Press and release the ":" button; each press of the button changes the
vehicle from Passenger Car, then to Pickup Truck, and then to Van/SUV.
When the desired type is flashing, press and release the "P" button; the
Time's "Hours" will flash, and may be set now.
4) Press and release the ":" button to advance the hours, or press and
release the " " button to reverse the hours. When the Hours are correct
(please note "AM" or "PM"), press and release the "P" button.
The Time's "Minutes" will flash, and may be set now.
5) Press and release the ":" button to advance the minutes or press and
release the " " button to reverse the minutes. When the minutes are
correct press and release the "P" button. The controller will play a
