If the System is Activated:

System Armed & Activated
Regardless of method, once the system is in a fully armed state it monitors all
protected zones, and if an intrusion attempt is detected it will activate, or “trigger”.
An activation consists of the following:
• The doors will immediately relock.
• The electronic siren, or optionally the vehicle’s horn, will start sounding.
• The exterior parking lights will flash on and off repeatedly.
over again when the door is closed. “Automatic Rearming” is a separate pro-
grammable operation similar to Last Door Arming, and should not be confused
with it.
An activation has a 30 (or 60) second duration unless the system is disarmed using
the transmitter or the Valet /Override switch. If all protected zones are secure at
the end of the activation, the system will stop and rearm itself to detect further entry
attempts. If a protected zone is still open at the end of the activation cycle, the
system will continue to reactivate itself, for up to six activated cycles before it resets
itself and ignores the violated zone. If the programmable activated period is 30

10. System Activation Cycle Duration: (•30 / 60 Seconds)
- Configures the system’s activation duration cycle to be either 30 seconds or
60 seconds. If programming, press the Transmitter Arm/Lock Button for the
30 Second setting or press the Disarm/Unlock Button for the 60 second setting.
11. Double Unlock Pulse: (On / •Off)
- Configures system to change the single unlock output pulse into a double
unlock pulse. Some newer vehicles require a double pulse to unlock the
doors; when needed this feature saves the expense of optional parts.
12. Open Door Bypass Alert: (On / •Off)
- Configures the system to chirp the siren 3 times upon arming, instead of 1
time, to warn the user if a door is still open.
13. Auxiliary 2nd Channel Disarms System or Engages Start Mode: (•Disarms /
Start Mode)
- This unique feature changes certain aspects of the system’s Auxiliary 2nd
Channel’s operation so that it is more compatible with optional remote starter
units. When this feature is utilized, instead of disarming the system when the
Auxiliary 2nd Channel is activated, the system does not disarm. Additionally,
certain of the system’s sensory zones are bypassed to prevent false activation
due to the remote starting operation. When this feature is set for the Start
