Alarm/starter control module

The ability to activate/deactivate Passive Arming through the remote is lost once Channel Expander mode is activated. If the Channel Expander is being used, set this option to the optional setting to
activate Passive Arming. Leave it on the default setting to prevent Passive Arming.
4-3 Aux 1 output Control: These are optional event triggers. Default setting triggers Aux 1 by the remote. Setting 2 triggers Aux 1 by remote and arming of the system. Setting 3 triggers Aux 1 by remote
and disarming of the system. Setting 4 triggers Aux 1 through panic of the system.
4-4 Aux 2 output Control 4-4:
Same as 4-3 except that an event triggers Aux 2.
4-5 Secure Aux Output (1 and 2 only): With this option on the default setting you must first tap button 4 on the remote and then tap either button 2 or 3 to activate Aux 1 or Aux 2. This is to prevent
accidental triggering of Aux 1 or 2 if they are hooked up to door poppers or window modules. On optional setting 2, this turns the secure aux off.
4-6 Auxiliary Input 1 : This option changes the input behavior of the pre-warn wire on the Aux Input Sensor. The default setting is the Prewarn when it sees a ground (-) trigger. Setting 2 changes the input
to an instant trigger. Setting 3 changes the wire into a ground (-) disarm input. That can be used as an input when using the control module as a slave unit.
4-7 Auxiliary Input 2: This option changes the input behavior of the pre-warn wire on the Aux Input Sensor. The default setting is the instant trigger when it sees a ground (-) trigger. Setting 2 changes the
input to a Prewarn. Setting 3 changes the wire into a ground (-) arm input. That can be used as an input when using the control module as a slave unit.
4-8 Extended Accessory After Ignition Shutoff: With this setting you can set the system to keep the Accessory wire powered up after you shut the ignition off. This can be used to keep the radio powered up
for a certain amount of time.
4-9 Key Sense of Glow Plug Input: Default setting sets the wire as a glow plug input wire. Setting 2 changes the wire into a key sense input. The key sense input can be used to prevent setting reservation
(manual transmission) and passive arming while the key is still in the ignition. Also, the dome light supervision will stop when the key is inserted in the ignition.
4-10 Trigger Start or Closed Loop System Input: Default setting is the trigger start when using the control module as a slave unit. Setting 2 changes the wire into a closed loop system. The wire becomes an
instant trigger if the wire is separated from ground. (-) This can be used for headlights housings or connected to a tow hitch.
Special Option Group 1: This option group controls the Diesel Timer and Aux 1 though 7. Aux 3 through 7 are only available with the Channel Expander. The Diesel Timer can only be set for 3 to 99
seconds. Aux 1 through 7 can be set from 1 to 100 seconds. This option group can only be accessed with the OP500 Option Programmer.
Special Option Group 2: This option group controls the Programmable Output Connectors. (POC) The POCs are located on CN3. (please see wiring guide for more details) This option group can only be
accessed with the OP500 Option Programmer. At default setting each option is set to 0. You can set each POC to 1-12. This changes the function of the POCs. Please see the option menu and wiring guide
for details of each POC.

Option Programming Using the OP-500
The OP-500 is required to program options in the Special Option Groups 1 and 2.
1. Connection to Control Module
Using the blue connector on the top of the OP-500, connect it to the control module via the antenna wire. (Use the included extension cable if necessary.) Once connected, the OP-500 will
power up. (The control module must have 12v+ and ground.)
2. Setting Options in Option Menu and Special Option Groups
To change the option number you wish to program, use the left and right arrow keys on the OP-500, it will scroll through then options available in menu 1 and then move to menu 2, then 3
and 4. At the end of menu 4, if you have turned on diesel mode or the channel expander, or set any of the auxiliary outputs to "Program", you will have the option to program the duration of
the diesel timer and/or auxiliary outputs. After the aux and diesel settings (if selected), the POC options will be displayed. The "POCs" are the programmable outputs on CN3 of the Pro-
Series modules. Please refer to the installation guide of the main controller for more information.
You can then use the up and down arrow buttons to adjust the option's settings. "1" is the default setting, and "2", "3", and "4" are the optional settings. The timing of the aux outputs and of
the diesel timer is displayed in seconds, and the POCs can be set between 0 (default) and 12. If you wish to restore all of the factory defaults, you can press "R" and "W" until the OP-500
chirps.
3. Finalizing Option Settings to Control Module
When you are done adjusting the various option settings or resetting them to the factory defaults, press and hold the "W" (write) button until
the OP-500 chirps. This will write the settings to the control module. Wait until the module displays "Success" before disconnecting it from
the antenna cable.
Updating the OP-500
This is required if you have an early version of the OP-500
1. To retrieve software for updating please email: support@compustar.com. Please write "request for update software" in subject. You can also go to
2. You will need to first identify what COM port your USB device is set up to use. To do this, Right-click on "My Computer" and go to
"Properties". Once the properties window is on the screen, click the "Hardware" tap at the top of the window. Then in the main body of the window, click on the Device Manager" button.
Under "Ports (COM & LPT)" There should be a device called "USB Serial Port (COM?)", The number that is in place of the question mark is your selected com port.
3. Connect the USB Updater to the computer, do not have anything (idatalink, CM4000, OP500 etc) connected to the updater when connecting
it to the computer. After a few seconds, connect the USB Updater to the "USB" port on the OP500 using the supplied cable. Open the "OP500 v6.2" folder and hold the "W" button on the
OP500 down while you double-click the file that matches your com port.
Example: I use COM5 so I would use "UPDATE-V6-COM5.bat". Once the OP500 displays "UP" on the screen, you can let go of the "W" button. After it is finished, just disconnect the OP500
from the USB Updater and connect the next OP500 if you have more to do.
