s
Panic mode enabled/disabled when the ignition is turned on.
(Some states have laws against sirens sounding in moving cars.)
s
Forced passive arming on or off. If your security system is
programmed for passive arming and the forced passive arm-
ing feature has been programmed on, the system will pas-
sively arm after one hour, even if a protected entry has been
left open. Forced passive arming ensures that the system will
be armed if a door has accidentally been left ajar when leav-
ing the vehicle.
NOTE: When the system passively arms after one hour, the entry point
that has been left open, and anything connected to the same zone, is
bypassed and cannot trigger the system. However, the remaining inputs
to the system are fully operational.
s
Full trigger response 30 or 60 seconds: This determines how
long the full triggered sequence lasts. Some states have laws
regulating how long a security system can sound before it is
considered a nuisance. If your installer is programming the
security system with the DEI
puter and the TechSoft
response can be programmed for any duration ranging from 1
to 180 seconds.
s
Automatic Engine Disable (AED) on or off. The purpose of
this feature is to protect the vehicle from being stolen at all
times, regardless of whether or not the alarm is armed. If AED
is programmed on, the starter of the vehicle will be disabled
30 seconds after the ignition is turned off. Once the key is
turned off, the LED will flash slowly (one-half its normal
armed rate) to indicate the AED arming cycle. Thirty seconds
