Page 12: Step 1
step 1 Plug-in LED and Valet/Program switch The LED and the Valet®/Program switch both plug into the control module. The status LED plugs into the white two-pin port, while the Valet®/Program switch should be plugged into the blue two-pin port. The status LED and Valet®/Program switch each fit into 9 / 32 –inch holes.
Page 13: Step 2
location using caution to NOT run the wires near any moving objects or excessive heat. The Valet®/Program switch is usually mounted under the dash or in the glove box, the same precautions used for the LED should be followed. Once a location has been selected drill a 9/32 hole, feed the wires through the hole and press the switch firmly until it snaps into place.
Page 14: Step 3
NOTE: step 3 Constant Power and Ignition wires Almost all power and ignition wires can be found behind the key cylinder under the lower drivers side dash panel. Using the appropriate hand tools, remove the lower dash panel using care not to break any parts.
Page 15 thicker wires. With the ignition harness exposed, use your digital multi-meter to find your power and ignition wires. Place the black lead of the meter to a clean metal surface in the kick panel area and secure it. Put the meter in the DC voltage position, then take the red lead of the meter and probe one of the thicker gauge wires.
Page 16: Step 4
step 4 Starter wire The starter wire will be located in the same harness as the ignition and constant power. Leaving the meter black lead connected to the metal ground. Find the wire suspected to be the starter wire according to the web information on your vehicle.
Page 17: Step 5
If the web vehicle information suggests a different type of parking light circuit, please contact Rattler Technical Support. Using the web information on the vehicle, locate the suspected wire and place the BLACK lead of the meter to a ground and secure it.
Page 18: Step 6
i i m m p p o o r r t t a a n n t t : : While reading the meter turn (adjust) the dash dimmer control switch. The voltage should not vary on the meter. If the voltage does vary the incorrect sus- pected wire has been tested.
Page 19 If you are unable to identify your door lock system with the web informa- tion please contact Rattler Technical Support. Although there are numerous types of door lock circuits, the most common is the negative triggered door lock system. If your vehicle has a negative triggered door lock system, follow the steps below.
Page 20 VW, newer BMW. T T y y p p e e B B : : Three-wire (-) pulse controlling factory lock relays. Most Asian vehicles, early Saturn, some BMW and Porsche. T T y y p p e e C C : : Direct-wired reversing-polarity switches.
Page 21 T T y y p p e e G G : : Positive (+) multiplex. This system is most common- ly found in Ford, Mazda, Chrysler and GM vehicles. The door lock switch or door key cylinder may contain either one or two resistors.
Page 23 type B: negative-triggered, relay-driven system This system is common in many Toyota, Nissan, Honda, and Saturn models, as well as Fords with the keyless-entry system (some other Fords also use Type B). The switch will have three wires on it, and one wire will test ground all the time.
Page 24 type C: direct-wired, reversing-polarity system testing reversing polarity systems Use these instructions if the power door lock switch has four or five heavy-gauge wires. This type of switch has two outputs that rest at (-) ground. important: To interface with these systems, you must cut two switch leads.
Page 25 It is critical to identify the proper wires and locate the master switch to interface properly. Locate wires that show voltage when the switch is moved to the lock or unlock position. Cut one of the suspect wires and check operation of the locks from both switches.
Page 26 *note: Except in GM cars with retained accessory power (RAP). In these vehicles, the (+)12V feed to the door lock switches is turned off if the doors are closed for any length of time. note: Most direct-wired power lock systems require 20-30 amps of current to operate.

Page 28 (-) ground when locked. note: The system must be programmed for 3.5-second door lock pulses, and the violet jumper between the #87 lock terminal and the #87 unlock terminal must be cut. Contact Rattler technical support. © 2003 directed electronics, inc.
Page 29 type F: one-wire system (cut to lock, ground to unlock) This type of door lock system usually requires a negative pulse to unlock, and cutting the wire to lock the door. (With some vehi- cles, these are reversed.) It is found in the late-model Nissan Sentras, some Nissan 240SX, Nissan 300ZX 1992 and later.
Page 30 type G: positive (+) multiplex This system is most commonly found in Ford, Mazda, Chrysler and GM vehicles. The door lock switch or door key cylinder may contain either one or two resistors. S S I I N N G G L L E E - - R R E E S S I I S S T T O O R R T T Y Y P P E E : : If one resistor is used in the door lock switch/key cylinder, the wire will pulse (+)12V in one direc- tion and less than (+)12V when operated in the opposite direc- tion.
Page 31 Operate the door lock switch/key cylinder in both directions to determine the resistor values. If the multimeter displays zero resistance in one direction, no resistor is needed for that direc- tion. Once the resistor value(s) is determined, refer to the wiring dia- gram for proper wiring.
Page 32 T T W W O O - - R R E E S S I I S S T T O O R R T T Y Y P P E E : : If two resistors are used in the factory door lock switch/key cylinder, the door lock switch/key cylinder will read resistance to ground in both directions.
Page 33 The correct wire will show a 10.00 to 12.00 volt pulse when the switch is pressed. note: Additional parts may be required to interface with certain door lock types. The Rattler Do-It-Yourself system comes with on board relays. © 2003 directed electronics, inc.
Page 34: Step 7
step 7 Door triggers The door trigger is the circuit in the vehicle that tells the dome light to come on when the door is opened. This wire can be either a positive 12 volt polarity or more commonly a negative ground polarity, the door trigger wire is mandatory for all secu- rity systems...
Page 35: Step 8
Some newer vehicles have multiple door triggers or a wire for each door, if this is the case it may be necessary to diode isolate the triggers so the security system can see all triggers without the door triggers seeing each other. If your Vehicle has more than one door trigger listed on the vehicle information sheet please refer to the web site or call technical support.
Page 36 the vehicle pull the remaining slack of the siren wire into the car and remove the sharp object. Route the wire to the desired posi- tion making sure to keep it away from all moving parts. Now solder the Red wire of the siren to the BROWN (H1/10) wire on the 12 pin main harness, cover the connection with electrical tape.
Page 37 step 11 Hood/trunk pins The BLUE (H1/6) wire will respond to a negative input with an instant trigger. It is ideal for hood and trunk pins and will report on Zone 1. It can also be used with Directed Electronics 506T Glass Breakage Sensor, as well as other Directed Electronics single stage sensors.

sensor will affect both zones simultaneously. To adjust the sensor, turn the adjustment screw on the side of the control module. For a more sensitive setting turn the adjustment screw clockwise in small increments, testing the sensitivity after each adjustment until the desired setting is achieved.

table of zones A zone is represented by the number of LED flashes used by the system to identify a particular type of input. Standard input assignments are listed in the following table, along with spaces to write in any optional sensors or switches that you have had installed.
Page 59 interprets this pattern of triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, the NPC ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch ™ (along with any other sensors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes. If the bypassed sensor is triggered again while it is already being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over.
