The Transmitter
Transmitter Button Operation: The transmitter's three buttons individually control the
system's functions; and certain other operations may be performed by first pressing and
releasing one button, then another, in sequence. Complete transmitter button operations are:
1)
Arm / Lock: (System Disarmed) Press and release the Large Upper Button.
2)
Disarm / Unlock #1: (System Armed) Press and release the Large Upper Button.
3)
Unlock #2: (After the previous step) Press and release the Large Upper Button again.
4)
Remote Panic Feature: (At any time) Press and hold the Large Upper Button 3
seconds.
5)
Trunk Release Output: (At any time) Press and hold the Small Center Button 3
seconds. This operation also disarms the system (if armed).
6)
Remote Engine Start: (At any time) Press and hold the Small Lower Button for 3
seconds.
7)
Silent Arm / Lock: (System Disarmed) Press and release the Small Center Button,
then press and release the Large Upper Button.
8)
Silent Disarm / Unlock: (System Armed) Press and release the Small Center
Button, then press and release the Large Upper Button.
9)
Arm and bypass the Auxiliary Sensor: (System Disarmed) Press and release the
Large Upper Button, then press and release the Small Lower Button.
10)
Disarm, then Remote Valet: (System Armed) Press and release the Large Upper
Button, then press and release the Small Lower Button.

Certain conditions will affect the previously described system operations - if the ignition
switch is "on", the security system cannot be armed, but pressing and holding the
transmitter's Large Upper Button for 3 seconds will still engage the Panic Feature. The Trunk
Release output will not operate when the ignition is "on", unless a door is open. While the
system is in Valet Mode, it cannot become armed and the engine cannot be remotely started.
Other functions, however, will still operate during Valet Mode; the vehicle can be locked and
unlocked from the transmitter with the normal siren chirp, parking and dome lights indicators.
Remote trunk release also operates when the system is in Valet Mode.
Low Battery Indicator: If the transmitter battery's voltage is too low for normal operation,
the Red LED Light will indicate that the battery should be replaced. Normally,
while transmitting the LED illuminates in a steady, pulsating manner. When the battery's
voltage is insufficient, the LED will slowly blink twice before flashing. The lower the battery's
voltage, the slower the flashing will be. Replacement transmitter batteries are available at your
Excalibur Gold dealer or most electronics stores. To replace the battery, remove the #1 Phillips
screw on back of the transmitter and gently pry the front and back shell halves apart. Upon
reassembly, ensure that the gasket is in place before snapping the halves together.
Extended Range Antenna: The transmitter features a retractable antenna which can be
extended to increase the operating range. Transmitter operating range is affected by
environmental factors; the primary cause of reduced range is the presence other radio
transmissions. Generally speaking, you will have greater range in suburban or rural areas

as compared to urban or downtown areas.
Multiple Car Operation - Changing Transmitter Banks: The transmitter button
operations explained on the previous pages are applicable for up to four different Excalibur
Gold vehicle security systems (i.e. - all three transmitter buttons will operate properly on one
system without affecting other systems operable by the same transmitter). This is accomplished
by "changing banks" on the transmitter:
1)
Rapidly press the transmitter's Small Center Button 4 times, holding it depressed on
the fourth press.
2)
The transmitter LED will now be flashing 1 to 4 times between pauses. The number
of flashes indicates the current bank level (1 flash = Bank One; 2 flashes between
pauses = Bank Two; etc.). Continue to hold the Small Center Button depressed.
3)
To change banks, press and release the Large Button the number of times equal to the
desired Bank level number.
4)
The LED will change to flashing the new Bank level number between pauses.
5)
Release the Small Center Button. The transmitter will now operate in the new Bank.
When attempting to enter Bank Selection Mode, please note that the transmitter alter-
nates entering Bank Selection Mode and transmitting a signal. When attempting to enter
Bank Selection Mode, if the transmitter's LED rapidly flashes, it is transmitting; simply
repeat the steps listed above to enter Bank Selection Mode.
Arming The System Using The Transmitter
To "arm" your security system is to place it into a state whereby it will respond to any
detected intrusion attempt. The security system can always be armed from the transmitter
provided the ignition switch is “off”, and the system is disarmed and not in the Valet Mode.
To arm the system, after you exit the vehicle and close all of the doors, simply press and release
the large transmitter button once, Instantly the exterior and interior lights will flash once, the
siren will chirp once and the Visual Deterrent LED will flash rapidly during the Arming Delay,
then change to flashing slowly, confirming that the system is armed. The Digital Status
Indicator will show " " during the Arming Delay, then " " for 10 seconds when the system
becomes fully armed.
The doors will lock and the starter interrupt circuit will prevent any attempt to start the
vehicle. Three seconds after the single siren chirp and light flash, your security system is fully
armed, and is ready to respond if an intrusion attempt is detected.
Arming Bypass: Upon arming, if any protected circuit is inoperable, that circuit will be
bypassed. For example, if the trunk is left open, you can still arm the system normally from
the transmitter. The arming confirmation will, however change from one siren chirp and light
flash to three chirps and light flashes. During Arming Bypass, the Digital Status Indicator will
display which circuit is bypassed. The bypassed circuit will automatically be reinstated for
protection 5 seconds after that circuit becomes operative, i.e., the trunk is closed. When a
triggered circuit is in a bypassed state, all other operating circuits will be protected normally.
