Encore E-7, E-4 - LCD Remote Transceiver Quick Start Manual

STANDARD LCD ICON CONFIGURATIONS

BATTERY CHANGING

Depending on the usage, the remote batteries should be changed at least once a year in the one way remote and once every 4-8 months for the two-way remote.
The 1-way remote, (E-7s) is powered by a pair of 3V, CR2016 batteries. These batteries are available at most locations batteries are sold and can be replaced by the user.

Battery Level Indicator (2-way remote)
The Battery Level indicator has three level indicators that serve as a visual indication of battery charge. When the battery reaches a low charge level that requires changing, the remote control will generate a single notification chirp, and the Battery Level indicator will flash continuously. If the battery voltage is LOW, the range of the remote will be reduced by 50% to conserve battery life. The two way remote requires 2, 3 Volt CR2032 batteries. The operation lives of these batteries are affected by many factors including, temperature, usage, back-light ON time and programmable "in range status settings". Do not allow these batteries to corrode or become wet for any extended period of time.

1. Turn the ignition to the "OFF" position and exit the vehicle.
2. After all entrances are closed, the security system LED will flash fast for 30 seconds. If you reopen any door / hood / trunk, the security system
   LED will stop flashing. It will begin flashing again once all vehicle entrances are closed.

PATHWAY ILLUMINATION: When receiving an unlock /disarm signal, this feature will turn the parking lights "ON" for 30 seconds and for 10 seconds upon the lock signal. (Programmable)

AUTOMATIC RE-ARM: If this feature is selected, the security system will automatically re-arm itself in 60 seconds after disarming with remote transmitter. Automatic rearm will cancel if any door is opened before the 60 seconds timer has elapsed.

DISARMING WITHOUT A TRANSMITTER

The Override function may be used if the remote transmitter is lost or inoperative.

1. Enter the vehicle and turn the ignition switch to the 'ON' position.

The valet switch allows you to temporarily bypass all alarm function, eliminating the need to hand your transmitter to parking attendants or garage mechanics. When the system is in valet mode, all alarm functions and remote start functions are bypassed, however, the remote panic feature and remote door locks will remain operational. To use the valet mode, the system must first be disarmed either by using your remote transmitter, or by operating the Manual Override sequence.

To stop the alarm, press the trunk button on the remote control.
If the button is not pressed, the alarm will automatically stop after 30 seconds.

TRIGGER THE SYSTEM

When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:
Light impact will trigger the warn-away signal.
Heavy impacts / Doors open /(if installed) Hood open / (if installed) Trunk open / Turning on the ignition key will trigger the programmed sequence. The starter disable relay (if installed) prevents the vehicle's starter from cranking. The siren, horn, parking lights, and dome light will turn on alerting of an intrusion for 30 seconds. Then it will stop and automatic reset and rearm. If the any one of the sensors or detectors is still active, the alarm system will sound a maximum of 3 times of 30 seconds cycles.

NOISE ABATEMENT CIRCUIT: Your system has a "Noise Abatement Circuit". It prevents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin switches or environmental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc.
Here's how "Noise Abatement Circuit" works: The shock sensor triggers five times, the "Noise Abatement Circuit" will interpret this pattern of triggers as a false alarm. After the 5^th trigger, the "Noise Abatement Circuit" ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch until a different sensor or switch is triggered.
