Ignition #1 Power Input/Output Blue Wire
This wire must be connected to the vehicle's Ignition #1 (also known as Primary Ignition) wire. The proper vehicle wire will measure Positive 12 Volts
when the ignition key is in the "Run" and "Start" positions and no voltage in the "Off" and "Accessory" positions. This wire is found in the ignition switch
wiring harness. If two or more Primary Ignition wires are present, an optional dual relay socket and one or two relays may be used on the additional wire(s).
If more than three Primary Ignition wires are present, you will also need an optional additional relay for each wire.
Note that this circuit is both an input and output. The input operations are the same as found Pages 10-11, and the output operations are for remote starting
the engine. When remote starting, this output supplies 12 Volts Positive to the vehicle's ignition circuit as soon as the remote start command is acknowledged
by the EG-1800
ATV
. This output stays active while the starter is engaged, and continues to supply power to the ignition circuit for the duration of the remote
start engine run period. If the system detects a violated safety circuit, receives a transmitter command to stop running, or if the programmed run time expires,
this output will stop supplying power, which stops the running engine.
Ignition #2/Accessory Power Input/Output Yellow Wire
Connect this wire to the vehicle's Ignition #2 or Accessory wire. This circuit in the vehicle can vary in its function. Its primary function is to supply
power to the Heat, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system. The connection point for this wire is also found in the ignition switch wiring harness.
In some cases the correct vehicle wire will show Positive 12 Volts in the "Run" and "Accessory" ignition key positions but in other vehicles it will show the
voltage only in the "Run" ignition key position. This output should not be used if the vehicle's wire also shows voltage when the ignition key is in the "Start"
position.
The Ignition #2/Accessory Yellow wire's operation differs from the Ignition #1 Blue wire's operation. When remote starting, this output supplies 12
Volts Positive to the vehicle's chosen circuit as soon as the remote start command is acknowledged by the EG-1800
ATV
but this output stops while the starter
is engaged. Once the engine starts and the starter disengages, this wire returns to having 12 Volts Positive output. From this point in the remote starting cycle
the Yellow wire continues to supply power to the chosen vehicle circuit for the duration of the remote start engine run period. If the system detects a violated
safety circuit, receives a transmitter command to stop running, or if the programmed run time expires, this output will stop supplying power.
Starter Output
Green Wire
Connect this Green wire to the vehicle's Starter wire. This wire will show Positive 12 Volts when the ignition key is in the "Start" position only. This wire
is also found in the ignition switch wiring harness. Some vehicles have a second Starter wire known as a "Cold Start" wire. When this second wire is present,
if the two Starter wires are the same circuit you may connect both of these wires to the Green wire. If the two Starter wires are separate circuits an optional
prewired dual relay socket and relay is recommended. When remote starting, this output supplies 12 Volts Positive to the vehicle's starter circuit.
The Green wire is best connected when installing the starter interrupt circuit. Its connection point must be on the starter side of the interrupt, not the
Ignition Switch side. This easily accomplished when installing the starter interrupt by combining the Green Starter Output wire with the starter interrupt's
White wire and then connecting both of these wires to the starter side of the cut vehicle wire. This is explained in further detail on Pages 51-52.
