Please note that certain conditions will affect the previously described system operations
- if the ignition switch is "on", the security system cannot be armed, but pressing and holding
the transmitter's Large Upper Button for 3 seconds will engage the Remote Panic Feature. The
Trunk Release output will not operate with the ignition "on", unless a door is open. The 3rd
Channel output may be operated regardless of the ignition switch's status. Also, while in Valet
Mode, the system cannot become armed, but will still operate the vehicle's doorlocks, parking
and dome lights, trunk release, and any function operated by the 3rd Channel Output.
To "arm" your security system is to place it into a state whereby it will respond to any
detected intrusion attempt. The security system can always be armed from the transmitter
provided the ignition switch is “off”, and the system is disarmed and not in the Valet Mode.
To arm the system, after you exit the vehicle and close all of the doors, simply press and release
the large transmitter button once, Instantly the exterior and interior lights will flash once, the
siren will chirp once (or the horn will honk once) and the LED Status Indicator will begin to
flash confirming that the system is armed. Further, the doors will lock and the starter interrupt
circuit will prevent any attempt to start the vehicle. Three seconds after the single siren chirp
(or horn honk) and light flash, your security system is fully armed, and is ready to respond if
an intrusion attempt is detected.
Arming Bypass: Upon arming, if any sensor circuit is inoperable, that circuit is bypassed.
For example, if the trunk is left open, you can still arm the system normally from the transmitter.
When armed in this condition, the siren will chirp (or the horn will honk) three

times instead once. The bypassed circuit will automatically be reinstated for protection 5
seconds after that circuit becomes operative, i.e., when the trunk is closed. When a triggered
circuit is in a bypassed state, all other operating circuits will be protected normally.
Sensor Bypass: Your Excalibur Gold system provides you with the convenient option of
temporarily deactivating the Auxiliary Sensor without affecting any other trigger circuit. To
deactivate the Auxiliary Sensor, simply press and release the small center transmitter button
within 3 seconds of pressing the large transmitter button to arm the system. You will hear a
second siren chirp (or horn honk), confirming the security system has armed without the sensor
circuit protecting the vehicle. The next time you arm the security system, the system will reset
to its normal condition, and the Auxiliary Sensor will again be part of your protection. If desired,
a second Auxiliary Sensor may be easily added to your system.
You may program your Excalibur Gold security system to automatically arm and, if desired,
also lock the doors. This feature is described in the following section. Automatic Rearming
is another method whereby the system can become armed. This is a Programmable Feature,
which may be configured to operate if desired, and is described on Page 11.
Passive System Arming And Rearming
Last Door Arming: Your security system can be programmed to arm automatically when
the vehicle's last door is closed. The moment the last door closes the siren will chirp once (or
the horn will honk once), the parking lights and dome lights flash once and the LED Status
Indicator begins to flash rapidly. Thirty seconds later the siren again chirps once (or the horn
will honk again), the lights flash once, the doors will lock (if the Last Door Lock
Page - 11
and Automatic Relock feature has also been chosen) and the LED Status Indicator will slow
to a steady flash, confirming that the security system is fully armed. However, if a point of entry
is reopened before the single siren chirp (or horn honk) and light flash at 30 seconds, this
passive arming process stops, and resets to start over again when that point of entry is re-
closed.
"Automatic Last Door Arming" offers a high level of security, since it does not require you
to remember to arm the security system when you leave your vehicle. Additionally, Automatic
Last Door Arming may entitle you to an insurance discount. Please note that the previously
described Arming Bypass feature does not operate with Automatic Last Door Arming. The
Arming Bypass is designed to operate only when arming from the transmitter, because all
protected entries must be closed prior to the Automatic Last Door Arming sequence to start.
To prevent the system from automatically arming while the vehicle is being refueled, you
should put the system in Valet Mode, keep your door open, or turn on your dome light switch
so the system detects that your door is still open. We do not recommend leaving your ignition
key turned "on". Last Door Arming does not effect the operation or use of the transmitter to
arm the system - if desired, the transmitter may still arm the system at any time.
Automatic Rearming:
Selecting the Last Door Arming Feature also adds Automatic
Rearming. This Feature causes the system to automatically rearm itself 90 seconds after
disarming, unless the ignition switch is turned "on". This prevents the accidental disarming
of the system by the inadvertent pressing of the transmitter's button while placing it in a purse
or pocket. If the "Last Door Locking and Automatic Relocking" Programmable Feature is
utilized, the doors will also lock when the system automatically rearms. Automatic Rearming
is indicated by a fast flashing LED Status Light during the 90 seconds, then a parking light flash
and siren chirp (or horn honk) when the system rearms.
Remote Valet: This Feature, which operates as part of the Automatic Rearming Feature,
will temporarily cancel the Automatic Rearming. To use Remote Valet, press and release the
small lower transmitter button within 3 seconds after pressing the large transmitter button
when disarming the system. The parking lights will flash on and off, and the LED Status
Indicator will illuminate steady to confirm Remote Valet operation. The system will remain in
Remote Valet mode until armed again by transmitter; or, the Valet Switch may be pressed.

While the security system is armed, the LED Status Indicator will be flashing. Should any
intrusion attempt occur, your system will instantly activate, or "trigger". Once triggered, the
system will:
1)
Sound the electronic siren or the vehicle's horn. The siren features six different tones,
and every 5 seconds the siren will change the tone to generate more attention to the
vehicle. The horn will sound a series of honks, sounding for one second, then pausing
one second. Every ten seconds, the horn honking will pause completely for 5
seconds, which avoids overheating the horn. This will occur for the duration of
