security system is disarmed or in Valet Mode.
4) Two horn honks or siren chirps and lights stay on for 60 seconds: The security system has
just disarmed.
5
) Two horn honks or siren chirps and two light flashes: The security system has entered the
Valet Mode.
6) Three horn honks or siren chirps and three light flashes: The system is arming with a
protected circuit still open (such as the hood or trunk) or an optional sensor in a triggered
state, and indicating that these circuits will be bypassed.
7) Four horn honks or siren chirps & four light flashes, then the lights stay on 60 seconds:
The security system has just disarmed and was triggered and reset while you were away.
8) Three horn honks or siren chirps and the lights flash once while the security system is
armed: The Prewarn feature has been activated.
A u t o m a t i c F u n c t i o n s A n d F e a t u r e s
1) Parking Lights Stay On For 60 Seconds After Disarming:
After disarming
the security
system, the parking lights will turn on and stay on for sixty seconds before automatically
turning off. This feature lights the way to your vehicle.
2) The Doors Will Instantly Lock If The Security System Is Triggered (Patent Pending):
If a thief triggers the security system the doors will automatically relock. If a door is
opened, this advanced feature will wait for the door to shut and then relock the doors. This
feature requires the installation of an optional doorlock interface.
3) 90 Second Automatic Rearming: Should you unknowingly activate your transmitter,
which results in the doors unlocking and the security system disarming, the system will
automatically rearm itself after 90 seconds and once again lock the doors. Note:
Automatic Rearming can be stopped (provided the Last Door Arming feature is turned
off) or paused (if the Last Door Arming feature is off) by opening the door; or stopped
by turning "On" the ignition key. Automatic Rearming is confirmed by a fast flashing
LED Status Indicator after disarming, unless the system was triggered and reset, in which
case a Zone Violation code will flash instead.
4) Power-Maze
: If the Vehicle's battery is disconnected or if the security system's power
wire is cut, the Power-Maze
â
feature will allow the system to trigger as soon as the
ignition circuit is hot-wired or receives power. The security system will stay activated
as long as the ignition is hot-wired.
5) The Security System Activates When Power Is First Applied: If the vehicle's battery
is disconnected and then reconnected, most other security systems will disarm.
The VIP 4000 security system will activate instantly when power is first applied.
6) Triggered Circuit Arming Bypass: Upon active arming (using the transmitter), if the
hood and trunk protection circuit or if an optional sensor is in a triggered state, the VIP
4000 will still arm but it's confirmation response will change to three horn honks (or siren
chirps) and three parking light flashes. This will indicate that the trunk or hood is not
secure or that an optional sensor is in a state that normally occurs only when the sensor
detects an intrusion or shock to the vehicle. This allows securing of the trunk or hood,
or inspection of the sensor. This feature does not operate with the Last Door Arming
feature.
7) Defective Circuit Bypass: When the security system is activated, if a trigger circuit stays
in a triggered state, the system will stop sounding and flashing the exterior lights after
three minutes and automatically rearm, bypassing the triggered circuit. If this circuit
returns to a normal status, protection of that circuit will resume.

P r o g r a m m a b l e F e a t u r e s
Your VIP 4000 security system has six programmable features that allow your system to
be customized to fit your personal needs. These features are selectable by Dual Inline Pin
(DIP) switches inside the security system control module. Please see your dealer or installer
for more details, as we recommend that the installer change any of the following features:
1) Horn Honk Or Siren Chirp Confirmation On Or Off: With this feature is turned ON,
when the security system is armed and disarmed the horn will honk or the optional siren
will chirp to confirm that the system has responded to command from the transmitter.
With
this feature turned OFF, there will be no confirmation honks or chirps. Turning this
feature
OFF does not affect the optional Prewarning feature.
2) The Doors Will Also Lock With Automatic Last Door Arming: With this feature
turned
ON, when the security system passively arms from the Last Door Arming feature,
the doors
will also lock if an optional doorlock interface was added. This will occur when
the system
becomes fully armed 30 seconds after closing the last door.
3) Automatic Last Door Arming: With this feature turned ON the security system will arm
itself automatically when the vehicle's last door is closed. At the moment the last door is
closed the horn will honk or the siren will chirp, the exterior lights will flash once, and
the Status LED will flash fast. Thirty seconds later the siren will chirp once again, the
lights will flash, and the Status LED will flash slow, indicating that the security system
is fully armed. If feature #2 is selected, the doors will also lock. If the negative instant
trigger is grounded at any time during the thirty second countdown (Example: opening
the trunk), the Automatic Last Door Arming feature will be interrupted. When the
negative instant
trigger becomes ungrounded, the security system will become fully armed thirty seconds
later. Note: All of the doors and the trunk must have the proper connection of the control
module's wiring. This feature allows unhurried passenger exit and trunk access, as the
Last Door Arming process does not start until the last door or trunk is closed, and opening
any door or the trunk will interrupt the process. You can still, of course, actively arm the
security system with the transmitter at any time.
4) Automatic Locking Of Doors With Ignition Turned "On" And Unlocking With
Ignition Turned "OFF": With this feature ON, the security system will automatically
lock the doors 1 second after the ignition switch is turned "On" and unlock them when
the ignition switch is turned "Off".
5) Current Sensing: With this feature turned ON, when the security system is armed,
current sensing can detect a positive current draw from the vehicle's battery. (Example:
the dome light comes on when a door is opened or the brake lights come on when the brake
pedal is pressed). The security system will trigger if a current draw is detected.
6) Fifteen Second Entry Delay: With this feature turned ON, letting the security system
automatically arm itself by Last Door Arming will allow a 15 second delay before the
system triggers after opening a door. This feature is designed to allow operation of the
security system even if the transmitter is lost or its battery becomes exhausted. Please note
that actively arming the system by using the transmitter will bypass this feature.
