This optional input can be connected to the horn circuit (+ or -). When this wire
receives input for a minimum of .5 seconds, the system reports a trigger on the
2-way remote. This is useful on vehicles that have a factory security system that
can be armed/disarmed with the Directed system. This system will not report that
a zone has been triggered when unlocking with the 2-way remote. This feature is
not available on the 1-way remote.
Bitwriters with a date code of 6a or older require an IC
upgrade (p/n 998M). Some bitwriters with a date code
of 6B do not require the IC upgrade, refer to tech tip #
1112 for more information.
The Bitwriter® (p/n 998U)
requires chip version
2.7
or
newer to program this unit.
Installation Points
Status LED
Control button
Learning the Tach (not needed with Virtual Tach)
To learn the tach signal:
1.
Start
the vehicle with the key.
2. Within 5 seconds,
press
and
hold
the Control button.
3. After 3 seconds the status LED on your Control Center lights constant when
the tach signal is learned.
4.
Release
the Control button.
Learning Virtual Tach (not needed with hardwire tach inputs)
To program Virtual Tach:
1. After the install is complete,
remote start
the engine. The programming op-
eration may require 3 cranks of the starter before the engine starts and runs.
Do not turn off the remote start if this happens, it is a normal programming
operation.
2. Once the engine begins running, let it run for at least 30 seconds.
3. Using the Remote, send the Remote start command to turn remote start off.
Virtual Tach is programmed.
To reset Virtual Tach, go into the Remote Pairing section of this guide and
press/re-
lease
the Control button 4 times for step #4, then
press
and
hold
the Control button
to reset Virtual Tach. Virtual Tach
cannot
be reset with the Bitwriter.
Note:
Virtual Tach cannot be used in MTS Manual Transmission Mode. It is also not
recommended for diesel trucks.
Virtual Tach handles disengaging the starter motor during remote starting – it does
not address over-rev. If the customer wants to have the over-rev protection capability,
the tach wire must be connected.
Important:
After successfully learning Virtual Tach, a small minority of ve-
hicle starters may over crank or under crank during remote start. The
Bitwriter can be used to fine tune the starter output time in 50mS increments
to compensate for such an occurrence.
Remote Start Shutdown/Startup Diagnostics
To perform shutdown diagnostics:
1. With the ignition Off,
press
and
hold
the Control button.
2.
Turn
the ignition On and then back Off while
holding
the Control button.
3.
Release
the Control button.
4.
Press
and
release
the Control button. The status LED flashes to report the last
shutdown for one minute or until the ignition is turned on, as shown in the
following table:

Turbo mode error: Turbo mode is programmed off, engine is not on or shut-
down input is active.
Manual mode error: MTS mode not enabled.
Startup Diagnostics:
If the vehicle fails to activate the remote start, the remote start
module will flash the parking lights on the vehicle to notify you of what caused the
no-start situation.
Parking Light Flashes
5 flashes Brake wire is active
6 flashes Hood pin wire is active
7 flashes Manual transmission mode is enabled and not initialized.
8 flashes Neutral safety wire has no ground or the neutral safety switch is Off.
Remote Pairing
Prepare the vehicle system to be Paired with a new remote
1.
Turn
the key to the ON position.
2. Within 5 seconds
press
and
release
the Control button on the system’s Control
Center one time.
3. Within 5 seconds,
press
and
hold
the Control button on the Control Center.
The status LED will flash one time and the horn honks to confirm the vehicle is
ready for remote pairing.
4.
Release
the Control button and proceed below.
Note:
If no remote pairing results, the system will exit after 60 seconds.
Prepare the new remote to be Paired with the system
Make sure the LC3 remote is set for the desired Car 1 (Default) or Car 2 operation.
1.
Press
and
hold
the
AUX
button for 8 seconds until the main menu appears.
2.
Press
