1) Smart Start:
This method uses a voltage sensing circuit which reads the vehicle's voltage
before attempting to start, and then monitors for a voltage increase which occurs
when the alternator has output. The Orange/Black wire connects to a constant
12 Volt source; the recommended location is the vehicle's battery. Once all of
the wiring connections are made, the Smart Start voltage sensing input must be
adjusted, and Programmable Feature
#
5 offers two levels of the starter motor
preset cranking times. To make the initial Smart Start adjustment:
1) Position the selector switch for Smart Start (right position).
2) Locate the Smart Start adjustment and LED indicator on the side of the unit.
Ensure that both adjustment screws are completely counterclockwise.
3) Now start the engine with the key; then, turn the Smart Start adjustment screw
slowly clockwise until the LED indicator begins to flash. The flashes confirm
that the unit is sensing the engine.
4) Turn the engine off.
5) Confirm that unwanted noise is not being picked up from other vehicle circuits:

Green Wire:
(+) Glow Plug Input
Connection If Needed.
The Green wire allows the RS-7K2 to be used with
diesel engines. Connect the Green wire to the wire in the vehicle which powers
the glow plugs, or the wire which illuminates the “Wait To Start” light on the instru-
ment panel. When connected, the RS unit will not engage the starter if the Green
wire has +12 Volts; in other words, using this wire simply delays the RS unit’s
engagement of the starter. If the “Wait To Start” light in the vehicle has a Nega-
tive switching circuit, it can still be used by simply reversing the polarity with an
optional relay.

Light Blue Wire:
(-) OEM Disarm Output
Connection If Needed.
If needed, the Light Blue wire allows the RS-7K2 to
disarm a factory alarm system. Connect the Light Blue wire to the wire in the
vehicle which is connected to one of the doorlock key cylinders. The typical OEM
alarm has an electrical switch in the key cylinders which switches -Ground when
the key unlocks the door. This wire can usually be located in the vehicle in either
kick panel area, in the wiring harness which is routed into the cab from the door.
The Light Blue wire has a -Ground pulse whenever the RS unit has an unlock
output or its remote start operation is activated.
