Dakota Digital REM-1C Manual

REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the REM-1C Two Channel Remote Control System
from Dakota Digital. This, along with many other products that Dakota Digital has to
offer, represents the latest in electronics technology for the street rod, classic car and
truck, and any custom vehicle.
The REM-1C Two Channel Remote Control system comes complete with
receiver and two keychain transmitters. It can be installed to remotely release the
driver's and passenger's door independently or operate any two devices. A safety
feature disables the system when the ignition is on to avoid accidental operation while
the vehicle is running. Two internal buttons can be wired into the system as well. An
emergency release switch can be concealed on the underside of the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
While installation of the REM-1C is very straightforward, paying a little attention
here and planning out how the system will fit into your specific vehicle will save some
time in the long run. The receiver should be mounted under the dash up on the fire wall
for best access to wiring. The kick panel is also another good location for the receiver.
Connect the REM-1C system as is shown in the wiring diagram. While the wiring
diagram is self explanatory, there are several key areas to pay particular attention to.
First, the 12 volt source should be able to supply ample current and should not be
connected to a feed that is shared with a high current device such as a power window,
power seat, or fan. Connecting to a source shared by a device such as this may cause
improper operation due to the surge current and subsequent voltage drop caused by the
high current devices.
The brown and orange wires can be wired to the internal switches and
emergency outside release switch (switches not supplied) as shown in the diagram. In
the event that you are installing this system into a vehicle that has suicide doors, you
may want to use two switches wired in series to that both switches must be pressed to
activate the door motor. The insert on the wiring diagram shows how to do this. In any
event, you should always use a safety latch mechanism to securely lock the door closed
while in motion.
