Code Hopping

E
The receiver and transmitters each use a mathematical formula called an
algorithm to change their code each time the transmitter is used. This technol-
ogy has been developed to increase the security of the unit. The control unit
knows what the next codes should be. This helps to keep the transmitter "in
synch" with the control unit even if you use the remote control out of range of
the vehicle. However, if the transmitter has been pressed many times out of
range of the vehicle, or the battery has been removed, it may get out of synch
with the control unit and fail to operate the system. To re-synch the remote
control simply press the arm/disarm button of the remote control several times
within range of the vehicle. The alarm will automatically re-synch and respond
to the transmitters normally.

High Frequency

Your system transmits and receives at 434 MHz. This provides a cleaner
spectrum with less interference and a more stable signal. Enjoy a phenomenal
increase in range - even in areas with high radio interference.

Programming Options

Programming options control what your system does during normal operation,
and require little or no additional parts. However, some may require additional
installation labor.
The following is a list of the programmable options, with the factory settings in
Bold.
•
Active arming (only with the transmitter) or passive arming (automatic
arming 30 seconds after the last door has been closed).
•
Arming/disarming confirmation siren chirps on or off.
•
Passive door locking (with passive arming) or active door locking (only
when arming with the transmitter) . This feature only works if passive
arming has been selected for step one.
•
The ignition-controlled door locking feature on or off. With this feature on,
the doors will lock 3 seconds after the key is turned on, and unlock when
