Control Module :
The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden under-
neath the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor which
monitors your vehicle and controls all of the alarm’s functions.
Failsafe

Starter Kill :
An automatic switch controlled by the system
which prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking whenever the system
is armed. The vehicle is never prevented from cranking when the sys-
tem is disarmed, in Valet
®
Mode, or should the starter kill switch itself
fail. Your system is ready for this feature, however installation of this
feature may require additional labor.
Integrated LED/Valet
®
Switch:
A small push-button switch with an
integrated Red LED mounted somewhere in the vehicle. The switch is
used to override the alarm when a transmitter is lost or damaged, or to
put it into Valet
®
Mode. The LED indicates the status of your system. It
is also used to report triggers and faults in the system or sensors. This
switch is also used to program optional features.
