switch harness. This will be located around the steering column area.
The ignition switch wires typically are high amperage circuits, which means that
high reliability connections must be made! Proper soldering of all connections is
recommended.
Mounting The Control Module:
The Control Module contains the
necessary electronics required for the system's operation. Always mount this mod-
ule in the vehicle's interior compartment, in a secure location that is not easily
accessible. Ensure that moisture, vibration and temperature extremes are mini-
mized. Acceptable locations include mounting behind the dash, behind the glovebox
or other interior panels.
CAUTION! Avoid the Airbag circuit! Especially avoid any har-
ness or wires encased in Yellow or Red tubing or sleeves. Do not
use a standard test light, as it can deploy an airbag or damage
on-board computers and sensors if the wrong circuits are probed.
A Digital Multimeter (DMM) should be used.
Mounting The Electronic Siren:
The electronic “2-n-1 Psycho Siren”
must be mounted external to the vehicle, but not vulnerable. The engine compart-
ment typically offers the best mounting location opportunities. See page 12 for
specific mounting and connection details.
The
Status Light
and
Valet Switch
are contained within the receiver
unit, and therefore require no special installation considerations. This places the 2-
color Status Light in a good position to be seen, both inside and outside of the
vehicle, and the Valet Switch at a convenient location to the user. The user may
customize the switch presses required to perform an Emergency Override with
Programmable Feature #1 (the factory setting is the most convenient “1 press”).
Optional Valet Switch Mounting:
Should it be desired, an optional extra Valet
Switch which may substituted for the one built into the transceiver unit, and
mounted in another location.
Mounting The System Transceiver:
The AL-1610-EDP two-way
system has a remotely-mounted transceiver section for superior range. The trans-
ceiver unit may be mounted directly to an interior glass by utilizing the attached
adhesive pad (clean and prepare the glass before adhering). The best operating
range performance is obtained by mounting the transceiver placed as high as pos-
sible in the vehicle, with the smaller rod-like end pointed upwards. Avoid mount-
ing this unit close to metal parts or structure of the vehicle.
Optional Vehicle Horn Connection:
The Excalibur AL-1610-EDP has a
programmable onboard output which allows the vehicle’s existing horn to used in
Feature #10 Gasoline Or Diesel Engine

This feature changes the system's timing of the ignition and starter output sequence
for remotely starting vehicles with a diesel engine. This feature should only be
programmed by the installer.

The Excalibur AL-1610-EDP features 4 dedicated remote start output relays, one
of which is programmable (this is the unit’s large pink/white output wire).
Operation choices are ignition, accessory or starter power output. This feature
should only be programmed by the installer.
Feature #9 Arm, Disarm or Additional Channels
Factory Default Setting

press
“arm/lock” button to program

Options:
Arm / Channel 5
(
press

)
Channel 4 / Disarm
(

The AL-1610-EDP has outputs designed for arming and/or disarming a factory-
equipped security system. These wires may be used instead to provide further
system outputs, which are remotely operated by the transmitter. These outputs are
in addition to the 2nd channel and 3rd channel outputs, the operation of all of these
outputs is explained on page 20, and in the Operation Guide.
As shown in the programming assignment, the arm, disarm, channel 4 and
channel 5 are programmable as various combinations. For example, if the disarm
output is needed, but not the arm output, then channel 4 may be made available for
use.

Time can be used for difficult-to-start engines. This feature should only be
programmed by the installer.
Note: “Base timing” is the maximum time period that the AL-1610-EDP will engage
the starter, but only if it does not detect the engine has started running.
