-
Interior Lights
A standard feature allows your installer to connect an output to activate the interior lights of your vehicle when
any valid user code is entered on the keypad. The lights will stay on for about five seconds after the
last
keystroke is entered.
-
Arm Output
The Arm Output (blue wire) provides a ground when the doors are locked by entering 557 or 559. This can be
used to light a flashing LED in the vehicle or provide the ground side for a starter interrupt relay or similar
device. If you locked the doors with 555, you can re-lock with 557 or 559 to enable the Arm Output without
unlocking first. 559 also causes the keypad to blink every 15 seconds.
- Trunk Unlock
Some vehicles come with a power lock on the trunk. Your installer can connect any one of three Auxiliary
Outputs to the trunk to allow you to unlock the vehicle and then the trunk. Most installers use the optional
output which is triggered by pressing the 7/8 Key on the keypad within 5 seconds of entering a valid unlock
code. The 3/4 Key or the 9/0 Key could be used instead of the 7/8 Key for the trunk, or to control other devices
on your vehicle. If you are using the trunk unlock feature, you will first enter your personal entry code followed
by pressing the 7/8 Key to open the trunk.
5. Using Auxiliary Outputs
- Auxiliary Output 3/4 - Press the 3/4 Key within 5 seconds of the last key press of a valid user code.
Note:
This output may be setup to toggle ON/OFF through a programming command for special control
applications.
- Auxiliary Output 7/8 - Press the 7/8 Key within 5 seconds of the last key press of a valid user code. Normally
connected to the trunk release, if available.
- Auxiliary Output 9/0 - Press the 9/0 Key within 5 seconds of the last key press of a valid user code.
6. Special System Setups
Your system has a special 3-Digit Convenience Code Mode, which can be enabled by the system installer or
by following commands listed in the Installer Guide. When the convenience code mode is enabled and the
vehicle is locked by using Lock Code 555, every code in the system will now work by entering only the first 3
digits of the code. If you have used 7 or 8 digit codes this can be a handy way to allow a friend or service
person to have temporary access by using 3 digits only, and without taking the time to add a new Optional
User Code, and without giving away your personal Master User Code. To lock the doors so a full length Unlock
Code is required, use Lock Code 557 or 559. Don't forget, you can always add 3-Digit Optional User
Codes
for use all the time without activating the Convenience Code Mode if you wish.
