Remote Start Setup:
Installer must determine if voltage or Tach RPM detection is to be used. Both methods will
work in most vehicles; however the Tach signal method requires additional setup and the availability of an
appropriate Tach signal from the vehicle.
If the Tach signal method is used, Program Option #13 must be
changed to “Tach Signal” before the tach wire (C3 Pin 21 light blue) is connected.
Voltage/ Tach signal detection Options
:
The system will detect the engine is running by either a voltage rise or the
proper Tach signal output. See Table 1 option 13 to set the voltage/tach detection option.
Voltage detection option: By way of connector C3 Pin 2, the system will look for a 1 volt voltage rise after
Remote start has been activated. If the voltage does not increase by 1 volt, the system will try to start one
more time. If the voltage does rise by 1 volt or higher, the parking lights will flash every 2 sec, indicating a
running engine. The connector C3 Pin 21 (light blue) wire should not be connected to a Tach signal if
voltage detection is used.
Tach signal detection option: To use the Tach signal detection option the connector C3 Pin 21 (light Blue)
wire must be connected to one of the appropriate tach signals, i.e. Vehicle’s tachometer sense wire or
Neg (-) terminal of a fuel injector, or Neg(-) terminal of an ignition coil.
Do not connect the C3 pin 21
(light blue) Tach input wire if voltage detection is used.
-
Tach signal (RPM) learning: The Tach signal detection circuit will detect an over-rev or under-rev
condition based on the normal idle RPM. If the engine starts in the Remote Start mode, and the
idle is less than ½ or greater than 2x the normal idle RPM, the Remote Start sequence will stop
and the engine will turn OFF.
After connecting the Tach wire to the appropriate tach signal (above),
the normal idle speed
must be learned into memory
using the following steps:
Start the engine and let it idle at its normal idle RPM.
Press the Valet button 7 times and hold it on the 7
th
press for approx 5 sec. When the
parking lights flash 3 times, release the Valet button.
The Green LED on the “Start/Stop Engine” button will start to flash rapidly.
When the engine is running at its normal idle speed, press the FOB “Door Unlock” button
1 time. The parking lights will flash 3 times indicating the idle RPM has been learned.
Turn OFF the engine.
Remote Start Operation:
The following conditions must be met before Remote Starting:
1.)
Table 1, option 1 must
be in the default (ON) mode,
2.)
System in the armed mode,
3.)
Key FOB out of range (more than 15 feet away),
4.)
Hand brake is set,
5.)
Doors are closed, and
6.)
Automatic trans. gear selector in Park/neutral position.
Press
button 2 times (approx. 2 sec between presses). Remote Start cycle will begin.
-
If the engine does not start on the first attempt (detected by voltage rise or Tach signal) the
system will automatically try to restart one more time. If engine does not start on the second
attempt the system will shut down. Remote Start can be reactivated again by pressing
2
more times.
-
When the engine does start the parking lights will flash every 2 sec, After 10 / 15 minutes
(selectable) the engine will turn OFF and the system will remain in the armed mode. Parking lights
will stop flashing.
-
Pressing the
button 1 time, will turn the engine OFF or stop the Remote Start operation.
After Remote Start has been activated and the engine is running, the driver may approach the vehicle with the
key FOB. The doors will unlock and the driver can enter the vehicle. The engine will keep running. The parking
lights will continue to flash indicating the turn OFF time (10 or 15 min) is still active.
If the driver wants to drive
the vehicle the handbrake or foot brake must be released.
The parking lights will stop flashing.
Do not drive
the vehicle if the parking lights are flashing as the engine will turn OFF once the 10/15 minute timer runs
out.
To Stop Engine Running
: Any one of the following steps will turn the engine OFF after it has been Remote Started:
Press
1 time, open a door (alarm will also sound) or release the hand brake.
