INTRODUCTION 

 
The PS-5565 two-way alarm pager system is the brainchild of over 2 years of research, development and 
dedication. With over 12 years of experience to feed from, our product development team was faced with 
the difficult task of creating a full-featured high-end alarm / remote starter system. The PS-5565TW was 
created to maintain low cost, while still offering all the great security features that are only available on 
very expensive products. This was done without compromising our solid reputation for quality, cost and 
reliability. 
   
The result would exceed far beyond what we had imagined; the feature filled PS-5565TW has met every 
criteria for security, quality and reliability.  With the addition of over 15 new features, this product will 
satisfy any demand for high-end systems, and standard features.   
After installing the system, we hope you too will agree that the new PS-5565TW is a breakthrough in 
vehicle convenience technology, and remote starter systems.
