Additional connections required for vehicles equipped with a manual transmission (if not supported by firmware)
Connection
Description
(-) Emergency Brake Input
(black/white, pin 2)
Must be connected to a working emergency brake in the vehicle. Although most vehicles have simple
(-) trigger emergency brake circuits note some vehicles do not and may require unique integration
methodologies.
(-) Door Input (white/green,
pin 10) OR (+) Door Input
(yellow/green, pin 11)
Must be connected to a working door trigger in the vehicle, which monitors all doors. The unit must monitor
the door pins to allow the Ready Mode process to be enabled.
Note
: Some vehicles may require unique integration methodologies for this circuit.
(AC) Tachometer Input
(violet/white, pin 6)
Must be connected to a working tachometer signal in the vehicle (fuel injector, ignition coil, true tach, etc.)
and learned successfully to the Directed Digital Solutions.
Note
: Refer to www.directechs.com for more information.
Optional sensors
Note
: The sensor port is only active on hybrid systems.
The 4-pin sensor port is compatible with a number of different Directed sensors including, but not limited to:
• Shock Sensor – 504D
• Field Disturbance Sensor – 508D
• Ultrasonic Sensor – 509U
Note
: In the case of 508D, power and ground must be hardwired to the vehicle – power and ground should
NOT
be obtained
from the 4-pin sensor port.
Each sensor will have its own instructions, which must be followed for installation and adjustment.
RF Systems
An RF System consists of one or multiple remotes, a Control Center (antenna), and an antenna cable – various combinations exist.
An RF System allows the vehicle owner to control the system with enhanced range. Two-way models are available. Please follow
the instructions included with the kit for appropriate installation and programming information.
When flashing the Directed Digital Solutions, make sure to pick the remote you will be using. This way the main module will have
the necessary firmware to interact with the remote and Control Center (antenna) combination.
When used in conjunction with SmartStart
Disconnect power from the Directed Digital Solutions before connecting the SmartStart module. Failing to do so could damage
main module. To enable D2D communication between the Directed Digital Solutions and the SmartStart one of the following
actions must be executed:
• SmartStart with
Loops
– The brown loop must be cut.
• SmartStart with
Pigtails
– The gray wire must be connected to a ground source.

connect the SmartStart 2-pin power harness when using a Directed Digital Solutions. Power and ground will be
provided by the D2D connector on main module. Refer to the SmartStart documentation for further details.
