again, the horn output must be connected. When the MARS remote starts the
engine it will chirp the horn 3 times; this feature allows the choice of 3 chirp volume
levels (instead of two- “On Demand” chirps can’t be used as the “START” button opera-
tion toggles between “start” and “stop”), or completely turning off the starting chirps.
The factory chirp setting is “Medium”; when programming (see page 12) press “UN
LOCK” to turn the starting chirps off; press “START” for the loud chirps; or press “TRUNK”
for the quiet starting chirps. Press “LOCK” for the factory setting “Medium” starting chirps.

The MARS features Anti-Carjacking protection which only requires programming it to
operate, and connection of the horn output. Adding an optional starter interrupt circuit to
the Anti-Carjacking further enhances recovering the vehicle should it still be taken.
When it is utilized, Anti-Carjacking automatically starts operating every time the ignition
key is turned “On”. When the key is turned on, the user has 53 seconds in which the
Valet Switch must be pressed 1 time to cancel the full engagement of Anti-Carjacking. At
53 seconds, the horn will start a chirping pattern as reminder, and the Valet Switch can
still be pressed. At 60 seconds after the key was turned “On”, Anti-Carjacking fully en-
gages, sounding the horn and flashing the parking lights; pressing the Valet Switch will
no longer cancel the feature. Instead, the ignition key must be turned “Off”, then back
“On”, and then within 5 seconds the Valet Switch must pressed; a few seconds later Anti-
Carjacking will turn off.

Once the full Anti-Carjacking occurs, the horn output ceases if the ignition key is turned
“Off”, but resumes whenever it is “On”.

Wiring - 3 Wire Connector / Satellite Relay Port
The Red satellite relay port can be used, if needed, to configure optional relays to energize
additional Ignition or Starter circuits, and Omega OEM security bypass interfaces also plug
into this port. Prewired dual relay sockets are available, and a plain 3-wire harness is
provided to use this port.
This 22 gauge Green wire is a 500mA Negative output having
basically the same operation as the 12 gauge Green Starter output wire. If two or more
Starter wires are present in the vehicle an optional relay is needed, connected to satellite
port Green wire as shown in the diagram.
22 Gauge Green Wire:
500mA ( - ) Starter Output
Connection If Needed.
The Red wire supplies constant 12 Volts that can be used to
power the relay's coil only- DO NOT use this Red wire for the optional relay(s) power
input (pin 87).
22 Gauge Red Wire:
( + ) Output For Optional Relay Coil
Connection If Needed.
