Mounting The Main Control/Siren Unit:
Find a location in the engine compartment away from the extreme heat of the engine
and manifold. A suitable location will offer a firm mounting surface, will also allow sound
dispersion out of the engine compartment, and not be accessible to a thief. The siren/
control unit must be pointed downward to avoid moisture collecting in the unit and to
enhance sound dispersal. The alarm's wires should be securely connected to the appropriate
vehicle wires with the proper terminals, connectors, or by soldering and tape or heat shrink
tubing. Wires routed through panels such as the fire wall should always be protected by an
existing or added grommet. A vehicle security system is also more effective if its wiring is
wrapped or enclosed in a protective sleeve which matches that already found in the car to
protect the factory wiring.
After the siren/control unit has been mounted, follow the instructions for each wire's
connection. Please note that during the initial installation, as soon as the Black ground
wire and Red Constant power wire have been connected, the transmitters may be
programmed to operate the system. This procedure is explained on Page 22. Anytime the
system is without power or ground for approximately 24 hours, the transmitters must be
reprogrammed to operate the system.

Wiring Connections
Short Black Ground Wire:
The Black wire's function is to supply chassis ground for the alarm's operation.
CONNECTION:
Connect the Black wire to the metal frame of the vehicle with a ring terminal, preferably
using an existing machine-threaded fastener. Make sure that the Black wire's ring terminal
has contact with bright, clean metal. If necessary, scrape any paint, rust or grease away from
the connection point until the metal is bright and clean. Note: If you have a bad ground
connection, the alarm can find partial ground through the wires that are connected to other
circuits, but the alarm will not function correctly, making you think you have a defective
alarm. The alarm can partially work, so you would never suspect a bad ground wire
connection. In some cases the alarm could arm and disarm properly but not function
correctly otherwise. Note: We recommend that this connection be made first.
Red Constant 12 Volt Positive Wire:
The Red wire's functions are:
1)
To supply constant 12 volt positive for alarm system's operation.
2)
After the system is armed, and if the Current Sensing feature is utilized, if any electrical
device in the vehicle turns on (i.e. the dome light), the current spike would be sensed
by the Red wire to trigger the system, which will sound the siren, and flash the lights.
3)
When 12 volts is first applied to the Red wire, the system will enter self diagnostic and
code learning mode.

4)
To supply 12 volts to the built-in relay contacts for the security system's White flashing
parking lights wire.
CONNECTION:
For dependable current sensing, connect the Red wire to a Constant 12 Volt wire at the
ignition switch. This wire will have 12 volt positive at all times and in all ignition key
positions. Another location can be at the constant 12 volt wire behind the fuse block or the
fuse/junction block. Connecting directly to the battery's positive terminal is not recom-
mended due to the corrosive environment and poor current sensing. Never just insert this
wire behind a fuse. The connection location must have constant 12 volt, 15 amp capacity.
Many vehicles have an engine compartment fuse/relay block where this connection can be
made.
Long Black Antenna Wire:
The long Black wire attached to the alarm's control unit is the antenna wire.
Do not connect this wire to anything or your transmitter's range will be reduced or
eliminated. Stretch this wire out and as high as possible for the best operating range. Keep
this wire away from metal as much as practical, and it may be tie-wrapped to plastic parts.
Blue Negative Instant Trigger Wire:
The Blue wire's function is a Negative instant trigger used primarily to detect entry into
the hood or trunk area of a vehicle. It may also be connected to negative door pin switches
which turn on the dome light. Complete functions are:
1)
If the Blue wire is grounded after alarm has armed, the alarm will trigger.
