SETTING UP THE TACH 

VIRTUAL TACH ADJUSTMENT 

Warning: For automatic transmissions only. 

Virtual Tach System combines the latest microcontroller technology and a complex algorithm that took years to develop. VTS is 
able to effectively monitor the engine starting sequence and release the starter at the right time without physically connecting
the tach wire to the remote starter. The VTS constantly monitors the data and readjusts itself automatically in order to maximize 
its capability to start the engine properly in any weather or deteriorating battery condition

.

OPTIONAL TIME DELAY ADJUSTMENT IN VIRTUAL TACH SYSTEM 

Follow these steps to program crank time adjustment, if needed: 
1.

In programming mode (page 2).

2. Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and press the 

 BUTTON and 

 BUTTONS simultaneously 



 the parking lights will flash 4 times. 

Do not release the brake pedal.

3. Press the 

 BUTTON 

if you wish to increase the time delay or the 

BUTTON

 if you want to decrease it. 

The time 

delay will be increased or decreased by 50 ms and the parking lights will flash once every time the 

 BUTTON or 

the

BUTTON is pressed.

4. Press the

and

BUTTONS

 to save the settings you have entered. 

5. Release the brake pedal – the time delay programming is now complete. 

MULTI-SPEED TACH PROGRAMMING 

1.

In programming mode (page 2).

2. Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and press the

and

 BUTTONS

 simultaneously 



 the 

parking lights will flash 4 times. At that point, release the brake pedal. 

3. Start up the engine and allow the vehicle to reach regular engine idle speed. 
4. Once the engine is running at normal idle speed, press the brake pedal and keep it down until you hear the parking lights 

output click 5 times. 

5. Release the brake pedal 



the tach programming is now complete. 

Caution! – Tach jumper settings: 
Some new vehicles have a higher TACH voltage threshold, which would fall out of the normal TACH trigger circuit of the remote 
car starter. Changing the jumper to TACH Threshold HIGH will allow the module to properly detect the TACH signal. 

BUT

, if 

you are having trouble with the TACH, please call our tech support team. Problems requiring changing the TACH jumper 
settings are very rare.
