Common Procedures

Valet Mode

Valet Mode
When servicing or loaning your vehicle to others, your alarm system should be placed in Valet mode.
Valet mode disables all alarm functions as well as parking lights.
IMPORTANT: While in Valet mode your remotes will still lock and unlock the doors.
The system can be put into valet one of two ways:
1. Turn the vehicles key to the ignition "on" position and hold the Lock and Trunk buttons
simultaneously for a half second. The parking lights will flash once to confirm the system is in
valet mode. Repeat this process to take the system out of valet mode. Your ignition does not
have to be "on." Upon tapping the same buttons again the parking lights will flash twice to confirm
the system is out of valet mode.
2. You can put the system into valet by turning the ignition key "on" and then "off" five
times within 7 seconds. The parking lights will flash once to confirm the system is in
valet mode. Shortly after the first flash, the parking lights will flash twice.

Jumper Settings

Caution: Jumper settings affect the polarity and use of certain outputs. If these jumpers are used
incorrectly, damage to the vehicle and control module may occur.

Jumper 1 (Door Trigger Polarity)

Determines the polarity of the door trigger input wire (red/white). In the default position the door trigger
registers negative (-) triggers. To change to a positive (+) trigger, move the jumper.

Jumper 2 (Parking Light Polarity Output)

Determines the output polarity of the green/white wire on connector one (CN1). In the default position it
provides a positive (+) parking light output. To change to a negative (-) parking light output move the
jumper.

CM-2300 Firmware

The CM-2300 control module is firmware updatable through the internet. In the event Firstech makes any
changes or corrections you can update the module using the grey RS232 Data Port on the control
module. This requires the USB updater cable.
