important information

Congratulations on the purchase of your combination remote

start alarm system. Due to the complexity of this system, it must

be installed by an authorized dealer only. Installation of this

product by anyone other than an authorized dealer voids the

warranty. All dealers are provided with a preprinted dealer certif-

icate to verify authorization.

By carefully reading this Owner's Guide prior to using your

system, you will maximize the use of this system and its features.

You can print additional or replacement copies of this manual by

accessing our web site at www.directed.com.

system maintenance

➜

The system requires no specific maintenance other than battery

replacement for the remotes.

LCD 2-Way Remote Battery Replacement

The 2-way remote is powered by a 1.5V AAA battery. The

Battery Level indicator has three level indicators that serve as a

visual indication of battery charge. When the battery reaches a

low charge level that requires replacement, the transceiver will

generate a single notification chirp, and the Battery Level indi-

cator will flash continuously.

To replace the battery, gently pull the battery cover release tab, then

slide the door down to expose the battery and remove the expired

battery. Place the new battery into the transceiver observing the

correct polarity. When power is returned the transceiver will light

all icons in the LCD and generate all beeper tones once.

4-Button Remote Battery Replacement

Your remote is powered by a small, lightweight 3-volt lithium

battery (CR2032) that will last approximately one year under

normal use. When the battery begins to weaken, operating range

will be reduced and the LED on the remote will dim.

➜

Your warranty registration must be completely filled out and

returned within 10 days of purchase. Your product warranty

will not be validated if your warranty registration is not returned.

Make sure you receive the warranty registration from your dealer.

It is also necessary to keep your proof of purchase, which reflects

that the product was installed by an authorized dealer.

LCD 2-way remote operation

The remote start system operates at 434 MHz and incorporates

Directed’s proprietary A.S.K. out-board two-way transceiver. The

high frequency combined with Binary Data communication

achieves superior range with two-way communication.

system signal paging features

➜

A page is the signal the control module sends to the transceiver as

confirmation of receipt of a command or alarm system status.

When the transceiver receives a page it will generate a page notifi-

cation to the user (notifications are audible beeps or the remote

vibrates) and the LCD icons will display the current system status.

Command Page

When a command (arm/disarm, remote start, or auxiliary

channel) from the transceiver is sent and received, the system will

send a command page back to confirm receipt.

Page Recognition Mode

The transceiver will leave a zone icon illuminated when it has

received a triggered response and will wait for violation recogni-

tion. Press any button on the transceiver, the LCD information

and alarm page alerts will be cleared.

note: The transceiver buttons will not send a command

to the system until the alarm page is cleared.

per second, indicating that the system is actively protecting your

vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming and note that the

status LED is flashing in groups, see the Diagnostics Section of

this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification, which

indicates that a security sensor or switch has been bypassed and

the system is not monitoring that area (zone) of the vehicle.

passive arming

➜

The system can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called

passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive arming, it

will automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off

and the system detects that you have left the vehicle by opening and

closing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30-second passive

arming countdown, the status LED will flash twice as fast as it does

when the system is armed. At the 20-second point of the count-

down, the siren will chirp to indicate that the system is about to

arm. At the 30-second point, the parking lights will flash to indicate

that the system is armed.

note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a

switch-protected trunk or hood) is open, the system will

not passively arm (unless forced passive arming is pro-

grammed on. See Programming Options section.) Addi-

tionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the arming

countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.

When armed your vehicle is protected as follows:

➤ Light impacts trigger the Warn Away signal. When triggered,

the siren chirps and the parking lights flash for a few seconds.

➤ Heavy impacts trip a Triggered Sequence. The sequence

consists of the siren sounding continuously and the parking

lights flashing for a pre-programmed period, which can range

in duration from 1 to 180 seconds.

➤ If a door is opened, the system will immediately start

chirping the siren and flashing the parking lights. Three

seconds later, the siren output changes to a continuous blast.

This progressive response gives you time to disarm the system

with your remote if you inadvertently open the door while

the system is armed, while still providing instant response

(even if the door is immediately closed).

➤ Turning on the ignition key will trip the same progressive re-

sponse as opening a door.

➤ The optional starter kill prevents the vehicle’s starter from

cranking.

triggered response description

➜

A Triggered Response can be activated by any of the triggers listed

below and consists of an alarm page along with the response

described for each trigger. The default Triggered Response dura-

tion is 30 seconds but can be programmed from 1-180 seconds

by your installer with the Directed Bitwriter .

Sensor Trigger

➤

- Heavy impacts to the vehicle will instantly

sound the siren and flash the lights for the programmed

duration and report Zone 2.

Door Trigger

➤

- If a door is opened the siren will chirp for three

seconds, then the siren will sound and the lights will flash for

the programmed duration and report Zone 3. The three

seconds allow the user time to disarm the system with a

minimum of noise should a door be opened inadvertently

while the system is armed.

Hood Trigger

➤

- Opening the hood will sound the siren, flash

the lights for the programmed duration, and report Zone 1.

Trunk Trigger

- Opening the trunk (if connected) will

instantly sound the siren and flash the lights for the

programmed duration and report Zone 4.

Ignition Trigger

➤

- If the ignition is turned on the siren will

chirp for three seconds, then the siren will sound and the lights

will flash for the programmed duration and report Zone 5.

When a Triggered Response is activated the transceiver will:

➤ Repeat four quick beeps (or vibrate) for 15 seconds.

➤ The full trigger alert icon (28) will turn on for 15 seconds.

➤ The zone icons will turn on and remain on until a transceiver

button is pressed, clearing the page alert.

➤ The transceiver will enter page recognition mode and

generate alarm page alerts.

note: Icons 13, 14, 16, and 20 represent alarm system

triggered sequence zone inputs. For more information

about icons and the zones they represent refer to the

Standard Remote Configurations section.

multi-level security arming

➜

Multi-Level Security Arming allows you to select which of the

system's inputs or sensors will be active and which will be

bypassed when the system is armed. (See Table of Zones section

of this guide.) Pressing

again within five seconds of arming the system will activate the

Multi-Level Security feature. Each time is pressed again, a

(only in Standard Configuration)

different security level is selected. The different security levels are

selected as follows:

➤ Press

once: The siren chirps once. The system is armed.

a second time within five seconds: The siren chirps

twice followed by a long chirp. Zone 2 is now bypassed.

➤ Press

a third time within five seconds: The siren chirps

three times followed by a long chirp. Zone 4 is now bypassed.

➤ Press

a fourth time within five seconds: The siren chirps

four times followed by a long chirp. Zones 2 and 4 are now

bypassed.

➤ Press

a fifth time within five seconds: The siren chirps

five times followed by a long chirp. All input zones, except

the ignition, are now bypassed.

note: Multi-Level Security Arming only applies to a sin-

gle arming cycle. Once the system is disarmed and then

re-armed, all the zones will be active again.

arming while driving

➜

Your security system can be armed while driving the vehicle!

Simply press

on the remote for two seconds while the

vehicle is running. The siren will chirp once to indicate that the

security system is armed, and then once more to indicate that the

ignition is on. The system will not respond to any input except

the door triggers, and the starter kill relay (if installed) will not

be activated. Once you have arrived at your destination, the

system will disarm when the ignition is turned off. The siren will

chirp twice and the LED will then stop flashing. The system can

also be disarmed at any time by pressing

The LCD 2-way remote will beep once (or vibrate), and the arm

icon (29) will be displayed on the LCD.

note: If the transceiver received a Warn Away or triggered

response page while armed, the first press of the unlock

button will clear the page alert. A second press will turn

the siren off, and a third press will disarm the system.

disarming

➜

To disarm the security system, press

. You will hear two

chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If the power locks

are controlled by the system, the doors will also unlock. The

siren chirping either four or five times when disarming indicates

Tamper Alert, which is described in the Diagnostics Section of

this guide.

disarming while driving

➜

Press

on the remote or simply turn off the ignition to

disarm the system. The lights will flash twice, the doors will

unlock, the siren will chirp twice, and the status LED will turn

off. The 2-way remote will beep twice (or vibrate). The disarm

icon (29) will be displayed on the LCD.

high security disarm

➜

This security system offers High Security Disarm. High Security

Disarm is a feature that makes it possible to silence and reset the

system while it is triggering, without disarming the system. If the

system is triggered and the siren has been sounding for longer

than six seconds, pressing

on the remote will stop the

trigger and return the unit to the armed state. The system will

not disarm, but rather reset. This prevents you from disabling

the system should you wish to disarm it without visually

checking the vehicle. Pressing

after resetting the system will

disarm the system; pressing this button during the first six

seconds of the triggered sequence will disarm the security system

immediately. The six second timer is provided for your conve-

nience, in case the system is accidentally triggered.

disarming without a remote

➜

If your remote is lost or damaged, you can manually disarm your

vehicle security system. To disarm the system without a remote,

you must have the vehicle's ignition key and know where the

Valet button is located. Be sure to check with your installer at

the time of installation for both the location and the preset

response (1-5 presses) of the Valet button.

To disarm the security system,

turn the ignition to the ON posi-

tion. Press the Valet button the

preset number of times (one to

DRW-35

five times) within 15 seconds.

After five seconds, the system will

disarm. If the system does not

disarm, you may have waited too

long; turn the ignition off and on

and try again.

Location of Valet Button_________________________________

Number of Presses_____________________________________

important! The Valet button can be programmed to

respond to 1-5 presses for the disarm function. You must

check with the installer to verify the programming for

your individual unit.

silent mode

➜

To temporarily turn off the arm or disarm chirps, use Silent

Mode™. Simply press

(or

on the 4-button remote)

for less than one second before arming or disarming, and the

confirmation chirp(s) will be eliminated for that one operation

only. If you want the arm/disarm chirps turned off permanently,

your dealer can do this for you.

note: The Warn Away response to lighter impacts is

bypassed if the system is armed using Silent Mode. This

ensures that no chirps will be emitted by the siren in an

area you want chirp-free. The system is still fully capable

of triggering. Only the Warn Away response is bypassed.

panic mode

➜

If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract

attention by triggering the system with your remote. Just press

for two seconds, and you will enter Panic Mode. The siren

will sound and the parking lights will flash for the programmed

siren duration. To stop Panic Mode at any time, press

the remote again.

note: Once panic mode has been entered, the siren will

sound for the programmed duration.

The LCD 2-way remote will beep (or vibrate) continuously

when the system enters panic mode. The 2-way remote will not

generate a page notification when panic mode is exited.

valet^®mode

➜

You can prevent your security system from automatically arming

and triggering by using Valet Mode. This is very useful when

washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet Mode, the

security system will not arm, even with the remote, but all

convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will

continue to work normally.

To enter or exit Valet Mode:

1. Turn the ignition on.

2. Turn the ignition off.

DRW-35

3. Press and release the Valet

button within 10 seconds.

The status LED will light solidly if you are entering Valet

Mode, and it will go out if you are exiting Valet Mode.

To enter or exit Valet Mode using the remote:

Steps 2 through 3 must be quickly and smoothly completed.

1. Open any vehicle door.

2. Press

3. Press

4. Press

again.

The status LED will light solidly if you are entering Valet

Mode, and it will go out if you are exiting Valet Mode.

remote start

➜

This feature allows you to remotely start and run your vehicle for

a programmable period of time. This makes it possible to warm

up the engine, as well as adjust the interior temperature of the

vehicle with the climate control system. If interior heating or

cooling is desired, the climate controls must be preset, and the

fan blower must be set to the desired level prior to remote

starting the vehicle.

important!

(1) Never remote start your vehicle when the

keys are in the ignition, except when performing Valet

Take-Over, and (2) Never start the vehicle if it is not in

either PARK or NEUTRAL.

To remote start the vehicle:

1. Press

on the remote twice within 3 seconds.

2. The parking lights will flash to confirm that the vehicle will

attempt to start.

3. A remote start page notification with a unique melody (or

vibration) will be generated and the LCD will display the

remote start (19) icon as long as the vehicle is running.

note: The 2-way remote will generate a Page Notification

with a different unique two-tone beep (or vibrate) and

the remote start (19) icon will turn off when the remote

start shuts down.

4. In gasoline vehicles, the engine will start 4 seconds after the

parking lights flash. In diesel vehicles, the engine will start

when the WAIT-TO-START indicator on the vehicle's dash

goes out.

5. Once the vehicle has started, it will run for the pre-program-

med period of time (either 12, 24, or 60 minutes - see

Programming Options section of this guide) or until a shut-

down input is triggered.

important!

It is unsafe to operate a vehicle’s motor in a

garage or other closed off area. Breathing the exhaust

from the vehicle is hazardous to your health. Never acti-

vate the remote start in an enclosed space.

When you are ready to drive the vehicle:

1. Insert the ignition key and turn

it to the ON (not START) po-

sition.

2. Press the brake pedal.

note: If the brake pedal is pressed before the key is in the

ON position, the engine will shut down.

While the vehicle is running during remote start operation, the

system will monitor the vehicle and will automatically shut

down the engine if the system receives any of the following shut-

down inputs:

➤ The brake pedal is pressed.

➤ The hood is opened.

➤ The shutdown toggle switch is put into the OFF position.

➤ The pre-programmed run time (12, 24, or 60 minutes) has

elapsed.

➤ Remote button

is pressed twice within 3 seconds.

The LCD 2-way remote will generate a page notification with a

unique melody (or vibrate) and the remote start icon (19) will

turn off when the remote start shuts down.

valet^®take-over

➜

The Valet^®Take-Over feature allows the vehicle to remain

running after the key has been removed from the ignition. This

feature is useful for occasions when you wish to exit and lock the

vehicle for short periods of time, but would like to leave the

motor running and the climate controls on.

To perform Valet^®Take-Over:

1. Before turning off the engine, press and release

twice

within 3-seconds on the remote (or press and release the

optional momentary switch). Then wait five seconds. A

remote start page notification with a unique melody (or

vibration) will be generated and the LCD 2-way remote will

display the remote start icon (19) as long as the vehicle is

running. Then wait three seconds.

2. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position. (The engine will

stay running.)

3. The engine will run until the pre-programmed time elapses

or a shut-down input is received. (See the previous Remote

Start section for a complete list of shut-down inputs.)

note: This feature will not work if the brake pedal is

being pressed.

short-run/turbo

➜

Short run turbo mode keeps the engine running after arriving at

you destination for a programmable period of 1, 3, 5 or 10

minutes. This allows the system’s timer to conveniently cool

down the turbo after you have left the vehicle.

To activate:

1. Park the vehicle and set parking brake.

2. Remove your foot from the brake pedal and leave the

engine running.

3. Press and release the

important Timer Mode should be used only in

open areas. Never start and run the vehicle in an

enclosed space such as a garage or carport.

To exit timer mode, turn the ignition switch on any time the

engine is running. The parking lights will flash 4 times, indi-

cating timer mode has been exited.

safety features

This system has several important safety features to ensure

proper operation of the motor and prevent accidental damage to

the engine or its components.

starter anti-grind circuitry

➜

Whenever the vehicle is remote started, advanced anti-grind

circuitry prevents the starter from engaging, even if the key is turned

to the start position. This prevents damage to the starter motor if the

key is turned to the start position during remote start operation.

disabling the remote start system

➜

This feature allows your system's remote start unit to be

temporarily disabled to prevent the vehicle from being remote

started accidentally. This feature is useful if the vehicle is being

serviced or stored in an enclosed area. To disable the remote

start, move the shutdown toggle switch to the OFF position. The

switch can be installed in a location of your choice. Check with

your installer for recommended locations.

Location of Shutdown Switch____________________________

over and under rev protection

➜

The system monitors the engine speed and will automatically

shut the engine off if the RPMs rise above or fall below the

programmed levels. This feature prevents damage to the motor

due to fuel delivery system failures or other problems which may

cause the engine to race.

note: The system uses an input from the vehicle to sense

engine speed. This wire must be connected in order for

over and under rev protection to work.

shut down inputs

➜

This security system uses several inputs to shut down the remote

start operation of the motor or prevent remote start if certain

inputs are active. The two most important are hood and brake

inputs. The hood input will prevent the motor from starting, as

well as shut it down, any time the hood is opened. The brake

pedal will shut down the motor at any time during remote start

operation, as well as preventing the remote start from activating

while it is being pressed.

nuisance prevention circuitry

Your system has Directed’s Nuisance Prevention Circuitry

➜

™

(NPC ). It prevents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to

faulty door pin switches or environmental conditions such as

thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc.

Example

If the alarm triggers three times within a 60-minute period and

™

each time the same sensor or switch triggers the alarm, NPC

will interpret those triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger,

™

NPC ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch (along with any

other sensors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes.

If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the security system while it

is being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over.

This ensures that a sensor that is continually being triggered will

remain bypassed.

™

The vehicle doors are protected by NPC differently. If your

security system is triggered by an open door for three full cycles,

the system will bypass the doors until the trigger ceases.

note: Arming and disarming the system does not reset

this function! The only ways to reset a bypassed zone are

for it to not trigger for 60 minutes, or to turn on the igni-

tion. If testing your system, it is important to remember

™

that the NPC programming can cause zones to be

bypassed and appear to stop working. If five chirps are

™

heard when disarming, NPC has been engaged. If you

™

wish to clear the NPC memory, turn the ignition on.

24-hour timer mode

To enter timer mode, press

and

simultaneously. The 2-

way remote will produce a melody and the clock indicator will

appear on the remote’s LCD. Once in Timer Mode, the system

will remote start every 24 hours. Repeat this procedure to turn

Timer Mode off.

diagnostics

The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly

monitoring all of the switches and sensors connected to it. It is

designed to detect any faulty switches and sensors and prevents

them from disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will

also record and report any triggers that occurred during your

absence. Refer to the System Status Chirps and Table of Zones

sections of this guide for diagnostic information.

arming diagnostics

➜

If the security system is armed at the same time that an input is

active (such as a door opening or sensor triggering), you will hear

one siren chirp to indicate arming and a second siren chirp to indi-

cate Bypass Notification. A Bypass Notification chirp means that

the security system ignores the input that was active when the

system was armed, until that input ceases. Three seconds after that

input ceases, the security system will resume normal monitoring.

For example, if your vehicle has an interior light exit delay and you

arm your security system before the interior light turns off, you

may hear a second Bypass Notification chirp. Once the light turns

off, however, the security system resumes normal monitoring.

note: Bypass Notification does not occur when the sys-

tem is in Silent Mode or if the notification chirps have

been programmed off by the installer.

disarming diagnostics

➜

Extra chirps that are heard when disarming the system are the

Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard when disarming the

system, then the security system was triggered in your absence. If

five chirps are heard when disarming the system, a zone was trig-

™

gered so many times that the Nuisance Protection Circuitry has

bypassed that zone. In either case, the status LED will indicate

which zone was involved (see Table of Zones section). The secu-

rity system will retain this information in its memory and chirp

four or five times each time it is disarmed, until the next time

that the ignition is turned on.

system status chirps

➜

The siren will chirp when arming/disarming the system. The

pattern of chirps will audibly report the system’s status as

described below.

interpreting zone diagnostics

➜

Warn Away responses are not reported by arming or disarming

diagnostics. If you receive a Bypass notification when arming or

a Tamper Alert notification when disarming, look at the LED.

Active or triggered zones will be indicated by a pattern of blinks

by the LED.

Example

If zone 3 was active or triggered, the LED will blink three times

with a two-second pause. Then it will blink three times again,

and repeat until the ignition is turned on.

note: Your system stores the last two triggered zones in

memory. If your system has been triggered but the LED

has been reset by turning on the ignition, your dealer can

still recall the last two zones that were triggered. Contact

your dealer for details.

code hopping

The receiver and remotes use a mathematical formula called an

algorithm to change their code each time the remote is used.

This technology has been developed to increase the security of

the unit. The control unit knows what the next codes should be.

This helps to keep the remote “in sync” with the control unit

even if you use the remote control out of range of the vehicle.

However, if the remote has been pressed many times out of range

of the vehicle, or the battery has been removed, it may fall out of

sync with the control unit and fail to operate the system. To re-

sync the remote simply press

several times within range of

the vehicle. The alarm will automatically re-sync and respond to

the remote normally.

high frequency

Your system transmits and receives at 434 MHz. This provides a

cleaner spectrum with less interference and a more stable signal.

Enjoy a phenomenal increase in range, even in areas with high radio

interference.

owner recognition

Owner Recognition is a revolutionary new feature available only

from Directed. Using a Directed Bitwriter, hand-held program-

ming tool, your dealer can program many of the system settings.

The programmer makes it possible to program different settings

for each remote that is used with the system. Then, whenever a

specific remote is used, the system will recall the settings assigned

to that remote. Owner Recognition lets up to four users of the

system have different settings that meet their specific needs. It is

almost like having four separate alarms in your vehicle, one for

each user.

note: Owner Recognition cannot be programmed with-

out a Bitwriter and the necessary software. Check with

your dealer for more information.

rapid resume logic

This Directed system will store its current state to non-volatile

memory. If power is lost and then reconnected the system will

recall the stored state from memory. This means if the unit is in

Valet Mode and the battery is disconnected for any reason, such

as servicing the car, when the battery is reconnected the unit will

still be in Valet Mode. This applies to all states of the system

including arm, disarm, and Valet Mode.

power saver mode

Your system will automatically enter Power Saver Mode while

armed or in Valet Mode, after a period of time in which no

operation has been performed. This lowers the current draw on

the vehicle's battery. Power Saver Mode takes over under the

following conditions:

➤ Power Saver when the system is armed: After the system has

been armed for 24 hours the LED will flash at half its normal

rate, decreasing the system's current draw.

➤ Power Saver in Valet Mode: When the system enters Valet

Mode the LED illuminates steadily. If the vehicle is not used

(ignition is not turned on) for a one hour period while the

system is in Valet Mode, the LED will shut off. If the system

remains in Valet Mode, the LED will come back on the next

time the ignition is turned on and then back off.

programming options

Programming options control your system's normal, operational

set-up. Most options do not require additional parts, but some

may require installation labor.

The following is a list of the programmable options, with the

factory settings in Bold.

Active

➤

arming (from remote only) or passive arming (auto-

matic arming 30 seconds after the last door has been closed).

➤ Arming/disarming siren chirps

or off.

➤ The ignition controlled door lock feature or off: When this

feature is programmed on, the doors will lock three seconds

after the ignition is turned on, and unlock when the ignition

is turned off. If your installer is programming the security

system with the Directed Bitwriter, ignition lock and unlock

are independent features that can be programmed separately.

active door

➤ Passive door locking (with passive arming) or

locking

(only when arming with the remote). Passive locking

allows the vehicle's doors to lock when the security system

passively arms (after the 30-second countdown). This

feature only works if passive arming has been programmed.

enabled

➤ Panic mode

/disabled when the ignition is turned on.

(Some states have laws against sirens sounding in moving

cars.)

➤ Forced passive arming

or off. If your security system is

programmed for passive arming and the forced passive

arming feature has been programmed on, the system will

passively arm after one hour, even if a protected entry has

been left open. Forced passive arming ensures that the

system will be armed if a door has accidentally been left ajar

when leaving the vehicle.

note: When the system passively arms after one hour, the

entry point that has been left open, and anything con-

nected to the same zone, is bypassed and cannot trigger

the system. However, the remaining inputs to the system

are fully operational.

➤ Full trigger response or 60 seconds: This determines how

long the full triggered sequence lasts. Some states have laws

regulating how long a security system can sound before it is

considered a nuisance. If your installer is programming the

security system with the Directed Bitwriter, the full triggered

response can be programmed for any duration ranging from

1 to 180 seconds.

off

➤ Automatic Engine Disable (AED) on or . The purpose of

this feature is to protect the vehicle from being stolen at all

times, regardless of whether or not the alarm is armed. If

AED is programmed on, the starter of the vehicle will be

disabled 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off. Once the

key is turned off, the LED will flash slowly (one-half its

normal armed rate) to indicate the AED arming cycle.

Thirty seconds later, the starter will be disabled. To start the

car, it will be necessary to disarm the system with the

remote. It is also possible to disarm the AED feature by

turning the ignition key to the RUN position and pressing

the Valet button the programmed number of times. AED is

also disabled when the system is in Valet mode.

note: This feature will only function if the FailSafe

Starter Kill relay has been installed.

security & convenience expansions

Listed below are some of the many expansion options available.

Please consult your dealer for a complete explanation of all the

options available to you.

Audio Sensor: Metal on glass, glass cracking, and breaking

glass produce distinctive acoustic signatures. The 506T audio

sensor uses a microphone to pick up sounds, then analyzes them

with proprietary acoustic software to determine if the glass has

been struck.

Backup Battery: The 520T keeps the system armed, triggers the

alarm and keeps the starter interrupt active if main battery is dis-

connected.

Hood Lock: Prevents the vehicle’s hood from being opened

without a key, keeping thieves away from the system’s siren, the

battery connections, and other components under the hood.

Field Disturbance Sensor: An invisible dome of coverage is estab-

lished by installing the 508D “radar” sensor. Your system can

react to any intrusions into this field with the full triggered

sequence.

Power Locks: This system offers lock outputs that can control

some manufacturers' power door lock systems. For other

systems, additional parts may be required.

Power Trunk Release: The accessory output of the system can op-

erate a factory power release for the vehicle’s trunk or hatch.

Although the on-board relay can control most power trunk re-

leases, sometimes an optional relay is required. If the factory

release is not power-activated, Directed 's 522T trunk release

solenoid can often be added.

Power Window Control: Automatic power window control is pro-

vided with the 529T and 530T systems. These can operate

power windows, and can roll them up automatically when the

system is armed, roll them down, or both up and down.

Mobile Video: This system is compatible with Directed Video’s

MCB1000 Multi-Channel Controller, featuring on-screen secu-

rity system programming and zone trigger information.

glossary of terms

Control Unit: The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden under-

neath the dash area of the vehicle. The control unit houses the

microprocessor which monitors your vehicle and controls all

system functions.

Fault-Proof Starter Interrupt: An automatic switch controlled by

your system that prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking

whenever the system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented

from cranking when the system is disarmed, in Valet mode, or

if the starter interrupt switch itself fails. Your system has feature-

ready circuitry for the starter interrupt, however installation may

require additional labor.

Input: A physical connection to the system. An input can be

provided by a sensor, pinswitch or by existing systems in the

vehicle, such as ignition or courtesy lights.

LED: A red light mounted at a discretionary location inside the

vehicle. It is used to indicate the status of your system.

Shock Sensor: This system has a dual zone shock sensor. This

sensor is mounted in the vehicle and designed to pick up

impacts to the vehicle or glass.

LCD 2-Way Remote: A hand-held, transceiver which operates and

monitors the various functions of your system.

Trigger or Triggered Sequence: This is what happens when the

alarm “goes off” or “trips.” The triggered sequence of your

system consists of the siren sounding and parking lights flashing

for the programmed duration.

Valet Button: A small push-button switch mounted at a discre-

tionary location inside the vehicle. It is used to override the

starter interrupt when a remote is lost or damaged, or to enter or

exit Valet Mode.

Warning Zone Response: Lighter impacts to the vehicle will

generate the Warning Zone response. It consists of several

seconds of siren chirps and parking light flashes.

Zone: A zone is a separate input that the alarm can recognize as

unique. Each input to the system is connected to a particular

zone. Often two or more inputs may share the same zone.
