Tachless Mode. Determines the engine status using an advanced software routine, without requiring
connection to the vehicle’s tachometer. Tachless operation may not be compatible with some vehicles
or in severe temperatures, in which case the tach wire must be connected.
13. Remote Start Program. This dual program branch sets the engine mode for Gas or Diesel, and
learns the vehicle’s RPM threshold. Learning the RPM threshold automatically selects the RPM
monitor mode. For installation into a diesel equipped vehicle, first set the engine type to diesel
before learning RPM.
Tach Monitor Mode. Monitors the vehicle’s tach wire (or a fuel injection wire) in real-time to determine
engine status and adjust starter crank time automatically. If programmed for Tach Monitor, the vehicle’s
tach signal will have to be learned before initial operation (see below).
RPM Learn. Start the engine, enter Branch 13, the LED should be flashing to indicate tach signal is
present. Press the Brake pedal 1 time to learn the vehicle’s tach signal. The LED will stop flashing to
confirm learning of the tach signal. The LED will flash four times if the tach signal was not learned,
engine sense mode will not be changed.
Gas Engine. Sets the engine type for Gasoline.
Diesel Engine. Sets the engine type for Diesel and monitors the glow plug input to make sure the glow
