  • Page 3: Cautions & Warnings

    CAUTIONS & WARNINGS DAMAGE RESULTING FROM IMPROPER INSTALLATION IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY!! DO NOT remote start your vehicle in a closed garage. Make sure that the garage door is open or there is adequate ventilation. Failure to observe this rule could result in injury or death from poisonous Carbon Monoxide fumes. DO NOT ROUTE ANY WIRING THAT MAY BECOME ENTANGLED with the brake/gas pedals, steering column, or any other moving parts in the vehicle.
  • Page 4: Wiring Information

    WIRING: 9-PIN Connector (22 gauge wires) Green: MODE A: (-) Start Activation Input This wire allows an outside source or accessory to activate a Remote Start. A 1-second Ground pulse on this wire will trigger a remote start. This wire can be used with an RS-400 temperature module.
  • Page 5 Green/Red: (-) 500mA Remote Aux. Output 1 (Programmable Option #10, requires relay) This is a programmable output that can operate two different ways: 1 - (DEFAULT) Disarm with Remote Auxiliary Output that provides a ½ second (-) Negative pulse when Button #3 is pressed to open a Factory power trunk or hatch release.
  • Page 6: Starter Disable

    Blue/White: (-) Passenger Door Unlock Output (Optional, requires relay) This wire activates when the unlock button on the remote is pressed a second time within 15 seconds upon disarming. This wire is used for the Optional Separate Driver’s/Passenger Unlock feature. Connects to unlock circuit for passenger door or doors.
  • Page 7 Orange/Black: (-) OEM Disarm Output This wire provides a Ground pulse to disarm the vehicles Factory Anti-Theft System prior to a Remote Start. Connect this wire to the vehicles' anti-theft disarm wire. This wire is sometimes found coming off the Driver's door key switch or at the Factory Anti-theft control module.
  • Page 8 WIRING: 5-PIN Connector (22 gauge wires) Violet: (+) Door Pin Switch Input Same as the GREEN wire below except this wire is used for vehicles that show a positive voltage (+12 volts) when the door is open and a ground when doors are closed as in many Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles. Green: (-) Door Pin Switch Input Identify the wire that reads ground when any door is open and 12 volts when all doors are closed.
  • Page 9 WIRING: 5-PIN Connector Cont. OPTIONAL CAR JACK WIRING: HIDDEN BUTTON or IGN SW TOGGLE SWITCH + IGN (Not Included) 12 V PINK PINK CONTROLLED W/SWITCH FULL-TIME CARJACK White: (+12V) Brake Reset Connect the White wire to the side of brake pedal switch that shows +12 volts ONLY when pedal is depressed. This will turn off the remote start if someone attempts to drive the car without the keys or if the Ignition key is not turned on all the way.
  • Page 10 WIRING: 4-PIN Shock Sensor (26 Gauge wires) Sensor Adjustment Adjust the main shock sensor with the small White dial. Clockwise will increase sensitivity and counter-clockwise will decrease sensitivity. Adjust Pre-Warning level with small Black dial. GREEN LED (-) TRIGGER (-) PRE-WARN GROUND 12 VOLTS SHOCK SENSOR: The sensor supplied with this system...
  • Page 11 WIRE: 4 PIN OUTPUT CONNECTOR (22 gauge wires) YELLOW/BLACK: (-) OEM REARM OUTPUT This wire provides a ground pulse to rearm the vehicles' FACTORY anti-theft system after a timed-out or aborted remote start. Connect this wire to the vehicles' anti-theft rearm wire or to the door pin circuit depending on your requirements.
  • Page 12: Power Door Lock Wiring

    POWER DOOR LOCKS: (22 gauge wires) PIN 1: BLUE: (-) Negative pulse for UNLOCK PIN 2: RED: 12V When using external relays (TERM 86) PIN 3: GREEN: (-) Negative pulse for LOCK DETERMINING DOOR LOCK TYPE: determining the type of locking system the vehicle has before connecting any wires.

  • Page 15: Important Notes

    Your system includes a Tach-less mode that actively monitors and compares the vehicle’s resting voltage versus its running voltage each time a remote start is performed; [instead of the conventional tach-pulse method]. Smart Tachless mode adjusts automatically to maintain optimum efficiency over the life of the installation. IMPORTANT NOTES: (1) SETUP may be required for the Tachless Mode.
  • Page 16: Tach Programming

    TACH MODE & TACH FINDER FEATURE Tach Reference Mode provides reliable remote starting performance though engine speed sensing. When using Tach Reference Mode, the WHITE/RED wire is used for Tach signal [Engine RPM] input. Most modern engines include various points where the Engine Speed [Tach] or A/C signal may be obtained. Tach Signal examples: Negative (-) side of ignition coil, at the Distributor or Ignition Control Module, Coil Pack, Engine Computer, or Crankshaft Sensor.
  • Page 17 As an alternative to Tach or Tachless mode, “Timed Crank” provides an additional method of starting the vehicle without locating an exact tach wire. It uses a timed cranking output combined with the use of the Red/White tach wire as an engine ON/OFF monitor. The Red/White Tach wire MUST STILL be used with this mode. THIS FEATURE MUST BE PROGRAMMED BEFORE USE! THERE ARE 2 LEVELS of programming required: First, set the system for “Timed Crank”...
  • Page 18: Diesel Glow Plug Delay

    This feature provides a solution for diesel vehicles without having to connect to the Glow Plug-“Wait to Start Circuit” input. This may be due to a variety of reasons for example: If your vehicle does not have a viable “Wait to Start Circuit”...

  • Page 22 PROGRAMMABLE OPTIONS Cont. 12. DOOR LOCK/UNLOCK PULSE TIME: This option controls the amount of time (0.5 sec. or 3 sec.) for the lock/unlock pulse. The standard pulse time for most vehicles is 0.5 Sec. The 3 sec. setting may be required for Mid 1980’s through Mid 1990’s European Vehicles that require a long lock and unlock pulse to operate Vacuum door lock systems.
  • Page 23 21. PRE-SET STARTER CRANKING TIME: (Requires Option #16 in “Pre-Set” Setting) This option controls the starter cranking time when in “Timed Crank” Mode. Choices are 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, or 1.5 sec. 22. DIESEL GLOW PLUG DELAY This option controls the system’s Diesel vehicle interface. Using this option you can control whether the unit monitors the vehicle’s glow plug circuit using the Pink input wire (Default), or you may select a specific delay time Before cranking.
  • Page 24: Programmable Option Reset

    PROGRAMMABLE OPTIONS Cont. 29. Aux #4 Time control: (1 sec. to 255 sec.) Default = 12 seconds This option determines the length of time that is outputted from Aux #4 (Green/White wire). Pressing the Lock or Unlock buttons on the remote raises or lowers the time by one second. 30.

  • Page 26: Remote Start And Alarm Trigger Diagnostics

    This systems includes disarm diagnostics, through the LED light, that will help in determining what caused the last trigger of the alarm system. This is a valuable tool in determining how the vehicle was tampered with or if there is a false alarm problem in which case you can make the necessary adjustments to correct the problem.
