The
Tach Start
feature requires connection to the motor homes tachometer wire, or an injector wire if the tach wire is not
available. The Tach Start feature provides reliable operation with virtually any vehicle and in severe temperature extremes.
When the Tach Start feature is selected, the vehicle’s tach signal must be “learned” through system programming. (see
below)
To Program the Tach Start feature:
Enter System Programming, (see Entering Programming)
Program Step #20 to Tach Start using transmitter button 2.
Re-enter system programming, and go to Step #21.
Immediately start the vehicle with the key to avoid the programming sequence timing out.
Press transmitter button 1 to learn the vehicle’s tach signal.
The siren will chirp and the LED will fl ash once if the tach was learned.
The siren will chirp and the LED will fl ash 5 times if the tach was not learned.
Turn off ignition to save settings.
The default setting for the engine mode is Gas Engine. For diesel vehicles, the engine type for Step #21 must be set to Diesel
Engine. When programmed for diesel engines, the BLUE/YELLOW wire (glow plug input) is monitored to make sure the glow
plugs have warmed up before the engine begins cranking. If the glow plug wire is not connected, the unit has a built-in timer
that waits 15 seconds before cranking the starter.
Complete Default Reset
Following this procedure will set all User and Installer Programming Parameters to factory default settings.
Enter System Programming.
Press Transmitter Button 3.
The siren will chirp 6 times indicating the reset signal was received.
All Programming options are now set to factory default settings.
Turn ignition off.
Test System and Adjust Shock Sensor
Arm, disarm, and start the system, checking that the siren and parking lights are functioning normally. Make sure that the
programmed features are performing correctly, ie.: ignition locks, passive arming, passive locks, etc.
Test the doors and bay door inputs (make sure all doors trigger the system.)
Adjust the shock sensor. (see Real-time Sensor Adjustment Mode).
Arm the system and disarm it with the ignition and valet switch.
If programmed to passively arm make sure that the system arms properly.
Tie up wire harness, and replace any under dash panels.
Make sure the customer has physical knowledge of the location of the valet/override switch.
Real-time Sensor Adjustment Mode
This mode allows active testing of the shock sensor and optional sensor input making adjustments without arming the alarm.
