Omega data bus interface modules, and remote start bypass modules, are
available as analog-operated, and as direct data-to-data (D2D) devices. The former
may be operated by connection to the DLS port. The later are the Omega IntelliKit
data bus interface modules and bypass kits, which simply plug into this Green port.
Either type of Omega accessory module includes its own vehicle-specific instructions.
Please refer to the Omega website, www.caralarm.com, for the latest vehicle-
specific application guide. Although other brands of data bus modules may
physically plug into the Excalibur’s data port, only genuine Omega IntelliKit
and OmegaLink modules offer the highest consistent quality and dependable
operation. Always choose Omega databus products for use with this port.
Data Port
(Green 4-Pin Port)
(-) Light Flash/Horn Honk, Options Port
(Orange 2-Pin Connector)
This Orange 2-pin port has a pair of outputs, (-) Parking Light Flash and Horn
Honk, which are also programmable for several other functions (see Features #23
and #24). These are 250mA (-) Negative outputs. If needed, Use a relay to increase
these outputs or reverse their polarity; see the Relay Diagram on page 34.
Mounting The System Transceiver
(AL-1510-EDP)
The AL-1510-EDP two-way system has a remotely-mounted transceiver sec-
tion for superior range. The transceiver unit may be mounted directly to an inte-
rior glass by utilizing the attached adhesive pad (clean and prepare the glass before
adhering). The best operating range performance is obtained by mounting the
transceiver placed as high as possible in the vehicle. Avoid mounting this unit
close to metal parts or structure of the vehicle.
Coaxial Antenna
(AL-1010-EDP)
The AL-1010-EDP has a coaxial antenna lead instead of the AL-1510-EDP’s
window-mounted transceiver. For the AL-1010-EDP, unbind this coaxial cable,
and route the exposed inner end high in the dash or behind pillar trim for the best
operating range. Do not place the exposed end too close to metal structural parts
of the vehicle.
The AL-1010-EDP can be upgraded to be a two-way system, in essence mak-
ing it identical to the AL-1510-EDP, by the addition of an optional Echo 2-way kit.
CAUTION! Do not exceed the output capacities of either wire-
both outputs are rated at (-) Negative 250mA.
Pink Wire - (Negative 3rd Channel or Option Output):
The 3rd
Channel Pink wire is an optional output similar to the 2nd Channel Gray trunk or
hatch release wire; however, this output is not capable of disarming the system when
it is used and therefore has no audible or visual confirmation.
ENHANCED 3rd CHANNEL OPERATION:
Most Omega keyless entry/ alarm systems have a unique operation that
automatically bypasses the sensor ports, ACC input (yellow wire), and starter
interrupt in remote start applications. When 3rd channel is activated, the system
looks for the vehicle’s ignition to turn on via the YELLOW wire on the main 5 pin
harness. If the ignition turns on within 10 seconds of activating the 3rd channel
output, the system will consider this a remote start operation and automatically
bypass the sensor port, ACC input, and turn off the starter interrupt to allow for
proper remote start operation. In case of the AL-1510-EDP or AL-1010-EDP w/
ECHO 2-way, the hand held controller will even indicate a remote start operation
by showing smoke from the vehicle’s tailpipe. Also, if using the D2D port and
doorlock interface module on a vehicle with OEM remote start, this alarm
system is capable of activating the OEM remote start. These functions are
automatic and do not require any programming.
CONNECTION:
For some applications an optional relay will be needed;
typical connection is the Pink wire to relay pin #85, and connect Constant Positive
12 Volts to relay pin #86. Connect pin #30 to power, or ground, as needed. Pin #87
is the output, and connected to the target wire. See the Universal Relay Diagram
on page 34.
