Engine Programming for Remote Start
In order for the system to properly start and run the motor home, the unit must be able to determine if
the motor home is cranking or if the engine is actually running. This system is equipped with two
means of detecting the engine’s run status: Smart Start and Tach Start.
The Smart Start feature detects the engine’s run status using specially designed software that
interprets certain characteristics of the engine, and does not require a connection to the motor home’s
tachometer wire. This feature allows a faster installation, but may not be compatible with all motor
homees, or under extreme temperatures.
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:
1. Enter System Programming, ( see Entering Programming )
2. Program Step #20 to Tach Start using transmitter button 2.
3. Re-enter system programming, and go to Step #21 .
4. Immediately start the vehicle with the key to avoid the programming sequence timing out.
5. Press transmitter button 1 to learn the vehicle’s tach signal.
•
The siren will chirp and the LED will flash once if the tach was learned.
•
The siren will chirp and the LED will flash 5 times if the tach was not learned.
6. 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
