“Automatic Rearming”, described on page 11, prevents the system from becoming

This feature controls the Starter Interrupt circuit, in several ways. In its default
setting, “On”, the Starter Interrupt is operable whenever the alarm is armed.
The “Automatic” option will cause the Starter Interrupt output to automati-
cally engage 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned "off", and also 90 sec-
onds after disarming the system. This automatic engagement will occur even if the
security system is in a disarmed state, but not if it is in Valet Mode. Once the
Starter Interrupt output is activated, the system must be armed, then disarmed with
the transmitter, or placed into the Valet Mode by pressing and holding the Valet
Switch for 2 seconds to disengage it. There are no Status Light indications with
this automatic form of Starter Interrupt.
Programming this feature “Off” completely eliminates the Starter Interrupt
output, while leaving all other system operations fully functional.

There are two methods of disarming the Excalibur:
Disarming the System
Disarming the System Using the Transmitter
2-
The second method is an “
Emergency Override
” alternative, should the
transmitter become lost or inoperable. This method uses the Valet Switch, but
the vehicle’s ignition key is also required.
1-
The primary method is to use the
transmitter
by pressing and releasing its
“disarm/unlock” button. This is the normal “daily use” method.
Press and release the transmitter’s “disarm/unlock” button once to instantly
disarm the system, disengage the starter interrupt and unlock the doors. If you have
the optional unlock driver's door feature installed, then upon disarming only the
driver's door will unlock, and if the “disarm/unlock” button is pressed again at
anytime thereafter, all of the doors will unlock.
The system’s reaction:
Disarming is confirmed by the siren chirping twice, the
Status Light turning off, and the parking lights flashing twice, then with the interior
lights illuminating for 30 seconds for approach illumination. The lights will turn
off instantly if the ignition switch is turned "on" before the 30 seconds expires.
Safety Disarm/Storm Mode:
While the system is activated, i.e. sounding
the siren and flashing the lights, pressing the “disarm/unlock” button will disarm
the system, but not unlock the doors. This safety feature ensures that the vehicle
remain secure should the system require disarming due to being activated from
nuisance or malicious false sensory inputs, such as typically produced by severe
weather conditions. To remotely unlock the doors if the system is disarmed while
activated, simply repeat the disarm operation by pressing and releasing the “disarm/
unlock” button again. If disarmed from a panic mode, the normal disarm indications
are present, including the unlocking of the doors.
If the Excalibur was activated and reset itself:
The disarming
confirmation will no longer be 2 siren chirps, and the parking lights flashing twice
before staying on with the interior lights. Instead, the system will respond with 4
siren chirps and the parking and interior lights flashing 4 times before staying on for
30 seconds. The Status Light will have changed to flashing two to four times
between pauses as a “Zone Violation” code to indicate which protection circuit
triggered the system (2 flashes, hood/trunk; 3 flashes, doors; 4 flashes , impact
sensor). These special audible and visual disarming indications, and Zone Violation
code, will remain this way until the ignition key is turned “on”.
