CM6200 Install Guide
Additional Notes
Reservation mode will be cancelled if the control module recognizes the vehicles door, hood or trunk
opening – or if the alarm is triggered. Each time the end user wants to remote start their manual
transmission vehicle, they must set the control module in reservation mode. Reservation mode settings can
be programmed with Option 1-06.
Version Diagnostics
All the new control modules come with the ability to check which firmware is on the module. This is
accomplished by turning the ignition on. Then with 2 Way remotes you must hold buttons 1 and 4 together
for 2.5 seconds. With the 1 Way remotes you must hold the Lock and Key/Start buttons together for 2.5
seconds. Current version starts with 1 flash.
Blade Cartridge Slot and Connector
The CM6000, CM6200, and CM6300 slot gives you the ability to use the Blade-AL and Blade-TB modules
from Firstech and ADS. With these modules you can virtually eliminate all wire connections between your
control module and bypass module. You only need to connect the main ignition harness and your needed
wires on the 20 pin Blade connector. For more information on how to program and wire the Blade please
visit www.idatalink.com for the specific wiring diagram for that vehicle.
The new CM6 Series the Blade connector has a locking tab. Non-locking tab blade harnesses will
work but you MUST TAKE CARE TO NOT PLUG THE HARNESS IN UPSIDE DOWN. Make sure
the two notches on the top of the harness face the top (CM and barcode sticker side) of the brain. When
looking at the wire side of the harness the two notches must be at the top of the plug.
Blade system includes:
1. Blade-AL or Blade-TB (NOTE: These modules are blank and must be flashed on your computer.)
2. 20 Pin locking wiring harness
3. 3 Pin harness used in some installs
IMPORTANT: Install diagrams are not included and must be downloaded from www.idatalink.com/
compustar. When flashing the Blade you can use the Y-Cable OP500 end and not CM4 Series end. ADS
and Firstech recommends using the 4 pin RS232 cable to avoid confusion. Cartridge must be removed to
flash the control module firmware when not using www.idatalink.com.
NOTE: The ADS-RNG C1, ADS-RNG C2, and ADS-RNG GM3 are not included and must be purchased
separately. The 20 pin Blade connector comes only with the Blade cartridge and not the CM6 control
modules.
