    Using the Excalibur System Your Excalibur system is designed to deter theft of both your vehicle and its contents. “Arming” your system turns on its protection, disabling the vehicle’s starter and locking the doors. Once the system is Armed, any intrusion attempt will Activate it, sounding the electronic “Psyren” psycho siren and flashing the parking and interior lights to attract attention.

    security system is now fully armed, and is ready to respond if an intrusion attempt is detected. The Excalibur system’s separate “arm/lock” and “disarm/unlock” button design allows repetitive operation- if already armed, pressing the “arm/lock” button will simply rearm the system, and vice versa when pressing the “disarm/unlock”...

Thirty seconds later the siren will chirp again and the lights will flash again, the doors will lock (which is separately programmable) and the Status Light will slow to a steady flash, confirming that the security system is fully armed.

  • Page 9: Disarming The System

    If there is a protected entry still open or the impact sensor still in a violated state at the end of 30 seconds, the system will reactivate for two more 30 second cycles. In this case the system will stop after a total of 3 cycles and rearm automatically, and then ignore only the open entry or violated sensor.
  • Page 10 Disarming is confirmed by the siren chirping twice, the Status Light turning off, and the parking lights flashing twice, then with the interior lights illuminating for 30 seconds for approach illumination. The lights will turn off instantly if the ignition switch is turned "on" before the 30 seconds expires. If the Excalibur was activated and reset itself: The disarming confirmation will no longer be 2 siren chirps, and the parking lights flashing twice before staying with the interior lights.

    a failed attempt to achieve SecureCode, the ignition switch must be turned off, then on again before another attempt is made. Should two failed SecureCode attempts be made, the system will ignore any further presses of the Valet Switch for two minutes. In addition to Emergency Override, if any of the three anti-carjacking features are utilized, a correct customized SecureCode would also be required to turn off anti-carjacking once it has become fully activated.

    The Excalibur also has a 3rd channel output which is similar to the 2nd channel, but with special operational design differences which make it ideal for use with an optional remote engine starting module.

  • Page 22: How To Program Transmitters

    How to Program Transmitters The Excalibur comes with two pre-programmed transmitters, but as many as four may be used to operate the system. Each transmitter has its own unique and ever-changing digital “code”, which is programmed to operate the system by a special “learning” procedure. When adding transmitters to operate the security system, all previous transmitter codes are deleted, so all transmitters which are to operate the system must be programmed at the same time.

  • Page 23: How To Program Features

    How to Program Features The Excalibur has 25 programmable features, most of which allow the user to customize the system’s operation (several programmable features are installation-related). “Features Programming Mode” is the process for changing these features. The vehicle ignition key and the Valet Switch are used to enter the Programming Mode, then the transmitter is used to change features.
