Detailed Description
P1: ALARM (OPTIONNAL)
P1-1: Red/White: SIREN OUTPUT (+)
This output (+12 VDC) is fuse protected (3A fuse) and feeds the siren directly. The load applied to this output
must
not
exceed 3 Amps.
Install the siren under the hood in a location that is inaccessible when the hood is closed.
Run Red/White wire to the engine compartment through an appropriate grommet, and
connect to the positive (+) terminal of the siren (RED wire).
Connect negative terminal (-) (BLACK wire) of siren to vehicle ground.
P1-2: Grey: TRUNK OUTPUT (-)
Low current negative output dedicated to trunk release.
Add a relay (not included) if polarity of trunk release circuit is positive or if circuit requires more
than 150 milliamps.
P1-3: Blue: DOME LIGHT OUTPUT (-)
Low current negative output dedicated to dome light, mainly when engine is shut-off by key (Programmable in Stage
2 – Level 3) or when unlocking doors on vehicle.
Add a relay (not included) if polarity of the dome light circuit is different than negative (-) or if
the circuit requires more than 150 milliamps.
This wire is normally connected to the driver’s door pin.
P1-5: Pink: ARMED OUTPUT (-)
This output provides a ground when the AstroStart alarm system is armed. It can be used to activate an auxiliary
circuit or LED. The device powered by this output
must not draw
more than 150 milliamps.
P1-6: White: DOORS / HORN (-) & P1-7: Purple: DOORS / HORN (+)
These wires can be use in two different ways depending on the mode with which they are used. The first one is
called “Alarm Link” (Programmable in Stage 1 – Level 14) that page your remote if the OEM alarm’s been triggered,
by monitoring the horn wire. In the AstroStart Alarm mode, these wires are used to detect door opening in order to
trigger the alarm.
Wired in “Alarm Link” mode:
Determine which polarity is the horn wire triggered by the OEM alarm and hook up the appropriate wire
corresponding to its polarity. (White for (-) and Purple for (+))
Connect the other wire, purple or white, to its corresponding polarity. In other words, if the horn is (+)
pulse, take the White to Ground. If the horn is (-) pulse, take the Purple to 12volts.
Note: The control module needs to see 4 pulses on the horn wire in 8 seconds to send an alarm condition to
the programmed remotes. The horn also needs to be triggered by the vehicle and not by the control module
and without the Ignition to be considered as a violation.
Wired in AstroStart Alarm mode:
Determine which polarity is required for the door detection and hook up the appropriate wire
corresponding to its polarity. (White for (-) and Purple for (+))
Take the other wire, purple or white, to its corresponding polarity. In other words, if the door detection
wire is (+), take the White to Ground. If the door detection wire is (-), take the Purple to 12volts.
The control module requires a
Ground on the White AND 12volts on the Purple
to consider a door open, to
trigger the alarm, and page all remotes the alarm condition. An alarm triggered information is automatically
sent to all of the 2 way remotes learned.
White and Purple wires (P1-6 and P1-7)
MUST BOTH BE CONNECTED
whatever the polarity of the
circuit that controls the dome light. This type of connection is compatible with all switching types and
will support anti-battery-depletion functions found in newer vehicles.
