T

RIGGER INPUT

 

Your remote starter is equipped with a negative trigger (pulse) input.  
This input can be connected to another remote control device or to an AstroStart RST-2 timer 
output (optional), part number  310-903-502. 
If this input is connected, consult this device's manual or ask your technician which command 
controls the Start/Stop function.  
Commands received on this input are ignored while engine is running on a remote start. 
All Start/Stop commands triggered on the input act the same as a remote control commands. 

CONTINUOUS MODE 

 

Continuous Mode function lets you remove the key from the ignition while leaving the engine running. This convenient 
feature allows you to leave your vehicle for short periods while climate controls remain on.
