Tach Learning
Tach Jumper Settings
Some new vehicles have a higher
TACH voltage threshold, which
would fall out of the normal TACH
trigger circuit of the remote car
starter. Changing the jumper to
TACH Threshold HIGH will allow the
module to properly detect the TACH
signal.
Multi-Speed Tach Programming Procedure
The system is designed to read a wide range of Tach signals produced by newer Ignition systems. Note that
you should go through the Tach programming procedure every time a new Unit is installed.
1.
Enter programming mode (page-16)
the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.
2.
Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and press the
and
buttons
simultaneously
the parking lights will flash 4 times.
3.
Release the brake pedal.
4.
Start up the engine and allow the vehicle to reach regular engine idle speed.
5.
Once the engine is running at normal idle speed, press the brake pedal and keep it down until you
hear the parking lights output click 5 times.
6.
Release the brake pedal
the tach programming is now complete.
Note: If another Tach programming is required, simply repeat the “Multi Speed Tach learning”.
Auto Tach Programming Procedure
This process can be carried out instead of the conventional Tach Programming Procedure.
1.
Make sure all the connections are done properly and that the Module has been powered-up.
2.
With the Hood up (Ground on the Hood Pin line), start the vehicle using the key.
3.
Start up the engine and allow the vehicle to reach regular engine idle speed.
4.
Once the engine is running at normal idle speed, press the brake pedal and keep it down until you
hear the parking lights output click 5 times.
5.
Turn the Ignition OFF. At this point, the Tach setting has been programmed.
Note: The “Auto tach programming” can only be carried out once unless the system is reset.
Hybrid Option
The HYBRID feature is a convenience option that can be used when a tach reference is not available from the
vehicle or from the bypass. It is disabled by default but can be enabled in Mode 4 of the programming options.
HYBRID mode is a special feature that is intended to facilitate the remote starter installation on most Hybrid
vehicles. With HYBRID mode enabled, the remote starter will give a four second crank output on its crank wire
(It will neither rely on VTS nor Tach to stop the crank cycle).
