3-1 Engine Checking Virtual Tach:
Voltage/ Off/Tach (1) When set to virtual
tach the remote start monitors the cranking voltage of the vehicle and sets it as a
reference point. Fifteen seconds after the crank output sequence the remote start
checks the voltage again to determine if the vehicle is running.
When set to voltage (2), the unit cranks the starter for the programmed time
and then attempts to sense that the engine is running by detecting an increase
in voltage.
If programmed Off (3), the vehicle cranks for the programmed crank time. The
tach setting or voltage setting is not checked to verify that the car is running. In
the OFF setting, if the vehicle fails to start, the ignition stays on for the run dura-
tion. Using tach or either of the voltage settings is recommended.
When set to Tachometer, (4) the unit references the learned tach signal to disen-
gage the starter. In addition it will monitor the RPM and shut down if the engine
RPM is too high or too low.
3-2 RUN TIME 12, 24, 60 MINUTES: Selects the time in minutes that the
system will operate the engine until the system "times out". This is the maximum
operation period and the system may be shut down using a shutdown at any
time. Using the Bitwriter®, the run time can be programmed for any duration
from 1-60 minutes.
