White Wire - (Positive Flashing Light Output):
This is a Positive
12 Volt output to flash the vehicle's parking lights for visual arming confirmation,
to illuminate them for disarming confirmation, to confirm remote starting, and to
attract attention while the system is activated. The AL-1610-EDP also has a
Negative version of this wire- see the following White/Black wire description.
CONNECTION:
Connect this wire to the vehicle's Positive 12 Volt parking
light circuit, which can usually be found at the following locations: at the headlight
switch, at the fuse/junction block, or in the rear body harness in the driver kick
panel. Some vehicles have a parking light relay which is triggered by a Negative
Ground circuit from the headlight switch; for these vehicles, use the White/Black
Negative Flashing Parking Light output wire instead..
The correct wire will show Positive 12 Volts when the headlight switch is in the
"Parking Light" and "Head Light" positions. When such a wire is located, also test
to ensure that it is non-rheostated: meter the wire operate the dash light dimmer
control; the correct wire will show no voltage change when the dimmer is operated.
Another cautionary note is that the halogen headlights found in modern vehicles
are not designed to be rapidly turned on and off, and if connected to the security
system, a reduction of their useful life may be occur. If flashing the headlights is
still desired, a relay must be used, since the headlight's current draw exceeds the 10
amp rating of the built-in relay. If flashing headlights and parking lights are desired,
use two relays - configure one relay to supply the parking lights and the other relay
to supply the headlights.
Do not connect the White wire to a rheostated (dimmer) circuit!
This will backfeed the parking lights through the rheostat or illumination
control module, and possibly cause damage to the vehicle or security
system control unit. Flashing the headlights is not recommended.

Feature #6 Doors Lock With Ignition On
Factory Default Setting
On (
press
“arm/lock” button to program
)
Option:
Off (
press
“disarm/unlock” button to program
)
This feature configures the system to automatically lock the vehicle’s doors every
time that the ignition switch is turned on. An exception to this would be if feature
#8 is turned on, and a door being open when the ignition switch is turned on. The
following feature #7 controls the automatic unlocking operations, and feature #8
provides for an override of this automatic locking if a door is open when the ignition
is turned on.
Feature #8 Open Door Bypass of Ignition Locking
Factory Default Setting
On (
press
“arm/lock” button to program
)
Option:
Off (
press
“disarm/unlock” button to program
)
This feature cancels the automatic locking or
unlocking of the vehicle’s doors
should one of the doors is open when the ignition switch is turned on or off.
Feature #7 Doors Unlock With Ignition Off

)
Similar to the previous locking feature, except this feature controls the unlock
operations when the ignition is turned off, and it has more options because of the
AL-1610-EDP’s multiple unlocking outputs.
*Multiple unlock outputs offer the capability of unlocking only the driver’s
door when the system is disarmed (Driver Door Priority Unlocking), and then the
option of unlocking all doors with a second press of the “disarm/unlock” button.
The driver’s door unlocking differently from the other doors must be config-
ured when the system is installed!
If the system is installed without the Driver’s Door Priority Unlocking
interface, this feature unlocks all of the doors when the ignition switch is turned off.
If Driver’s Door Priority Unlocking is installed, this feature can control only the
driver’s door unlocking when the ignition is turned, all doors unlocking, or all doors
except the driver’s. The following feature provides for an override of this automatic
unlocking if a door is open when the ignition is turned off.
Feature #9 Confirmation Chirps
