Violet Wire - (Starter Output):
When remote starting, this output
supplies 12 Volts Positive to the vehicle's starter circuit. The Violet wire is best
connected when installing the starter interrupt circuit. Its connection point must
be on the starter side of the interrupt relay, not the Ignition Switch side. This is
easily accomplished when installing the starter interrupt by combining the Violet
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 the next page.
CONNECTION:
The Violet wire connects to the vehicle's Starter wire, after
the starter interrupt. See pages 9 & 10 for specific instructions. The vehicle
starter wire will show Positive 12 Volts when the ignition key is in the "Start"
position only. This wire is found in the ignition switch wiring harness, and it is
important to make this connection on the ignition switch side of, and not on the
starter side of, the neutral safety switch.
Some vehicles have a second Starter wire known as a "Cold Start" wire. When
this second wire is present, there are several options. If the two Starter wires are
the same circuit, both of them may be connected to the AL-1610-EDP Violet wire.
If the two Starter wires are separate circuits, an additional relay may be config-
ured, from the Satellite Relay Port; or the Pink/White ignition output may be re-
programmed as a start wire and used.
supply power to the chosen vehicle circuit for the duration of the remote start engine
run period.
CONNECTION:
Connect this wire to the vehicle's Accessory wire. This
circuit in the vehicle can vary in its function. Typically, 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 volt-
age 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.
Pink/White Wire - Programmable Relay Output (default:
Ignition; options: Starter or Accessory):
This large Pink/White wire is
the fourth of 4 onboard relays which are dedicated remote starting outputs.
However, this output is different, in that it is programmable, by Installer Feature #8.
This output is factory default-set for Ignition operation, or, it may be reprogrammed
to operate as an Accessory output or as a Start output.
CONNECTION:
As needed. If used as its default Ignition setting, connection
is similar to that of the Pink ignition output wire. If it is changed, if set as an
Accessory output connection is similar to the Orange wire; and if set as a Start output
connection is similar to the that of the Violet wire.
The Installer Programmable Features
The second group of features, the Installer Programmable Features, are accessed as
the second level of features’ programming, which is pressing the Valet Switch 10
times instead of 5 times when entering Programming Mode (page 42). Caution:
These features have a critical affect upon the system’s operations, and in many
cases, also upon the system’s wiring connections. These features should
NEVER be changed, except by the installer or other qualified professional.
This booklet should be consulted for the proper wiring connections, as associated
with these programmable features.
