Momentary operation provides an output for as long as the transmitter button is pressed.

Timed operation provides an output that turns on for 10 seconds each time the transmitter button

is pressed.  If the button is pressed again during the 30 seconds, the output will turn off.
Latched operation provides an output that turns on when the transmitter button is pressed and

remains on until the transmitter button is pressed again.

13. Disarm with Auxiliary 1. When selected, activating the Auxiliary 1 output (usually used to

open the trunk) will disarm the alarm.

14. Starter Confirmation Chirps. When Enabled, siren will chirp to confirm Starter Active state.
15. Start in Valet Mode.  Selects whether or not the vehicle can remote start while in the valet

mode.

16. Lock After Start.  When selected, the doors will automatically lock after remote starting.
17. Lock After Shutdown.  When selected, the doors will automatically lock after remote

shutdown.

18. Engine Run Time.  Selects between 15 or 25 minutes for the remote start run cycle.
19. Automatic Start Mode.  Selects between every two hours or every hours for the automatic

engine starting feature.

20. Tachless Sense Crank Time.  Selecting engine crank time automatically selects the tachless

mode and one of three crank times. 
If the normal engine crank time is too short increase the time by selecting one of the two

additional extended crank time options.

Normal - 

0.8Sec.

Extended - 

1.0Sec.

Super Extended - 1.4Sec.
Tachless Mode. Determines the engine status using an advanced software routine, without

requiring connection to the vehicle’s tachometer.  Tachless operation may not be compatible with

some vehicles or in severe temperatures, in which case the tach wire must be connected.  

21. Remote Start Program.  This dual program branch sets the engine mode for Gas or Diesel, and

learns the vehicle’s RPM threshold.  Learning the RPM threshold automatically selects the RPM

monitor mode. For installation into a diesel equipped vehicle, first set the engine type to diesel

before learning RPM.

Tach Monitor Mode. Monitors the vehicle’s tach wire (or a fuel injection wire) in real-time to

determine engine status and adjust starter crank time automatically.  If programmed for Tach

Monitor, the vehicle’s tach signal will have to be learned before initial operation (see below).
RPM Learn. Start the engine, enter Branch 21 and press Button 1 to learn the vehicle’s tach

signal.  The siren will chirp and the LED will flash once to confirm learning of the tach signal and

entering Tach Monitor Mode.  The siren will chirp four times and the LED will flash four times if

the tach signal was not learned, engine sense mode will not be changed.
Gas Engine. Sets the engine type for Gasoline.  
Diesel Engine. Sets the engine type for Diesel and monitors the glow plug input to make sure

the glow plugs are warm before cranking the starter.  If the glow plug wire is not connected, the

built-in timer waits 15 seconds before automatically cranking the starter.

22. Ignition 2 Relay Program.  Selects one of three operating modes for the Ignition 2 relay

output: Ignition 2, Accessory 2, or Starter 2. 

23. Ignition Door Lock Mode. Selects Lock when engine RPM exceeds twice the idle, and Lock 3

seconds after ignition is turned On.
