HORN ADJUSTMENT
Note: Before adjustment, horn option must be enabled.
1. In programming mode (page 3).
2. Press and hold the brake pedal, then simultaneously press the UNLOCK and START buttons  the
horn will chirp 5 times.
3. Release the brake pedal.
4. To change the timing:
1. To increase the horn pulse by 3 ms, press the LOCK button.
2. To decrease the pulse by 3 ms, press the UNLOCK button.
3. To increase the pulse by 10 ms, press the START button.
4. To decrease the pulse by 10 ms, press the TRUNK button.
5. To save the new settings: press LOCK and UNLOCK simultaneously. If 3 chirps are returned, the new
setting has been saved.
6. You have 20 more seconds to select one of the sub-menus if needed.

SETTING UP THE TACH
VIRTUAL TACH ADJUSTMENT
Warning: For automatic transmissions only.
Virtual Tach System combines the latest microcontroller technology and a complex algorithm that took years to
develop. VTS is able to effectively monitor the engine starting sequence and release the starter at the right time
without physically connecting the tach wire to the remote starter. The VTS constantly monitors the data and
readjusts itself automatically in order to maximize its capability to start the engine properly in any weather or
deteriorating battery condition.
OPTIONAL TIME DELAY ADJUSTMENT IN VIRTUAL TACH SYSTEM
Follow these steps to program crank time adjustment, if needed:
1. In programming mode (page 3).
Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and press the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons
simultaneously  the parking lights will flash 4 times. Do not release the brake pedal.
2. Press the LOCK button if you wish to increase the time delay or the UNLOCK button if you want to
decrease it. The time delay will be increased or decreased by 50 ms and the parking lights will flash
once every time the LOCK or UNLOCK button is pressed.
3. Press the TRUNK button to save the settings you have entered.
4. Release the brake pedal – the time delay programming is now complete.
MULTI-SPEED TACH PROGRAMMING
1. In programming mode (page 3).
2. Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and press the LOCK and UNLOCK buttons
simultaneously  the parking lights will flash 4 times. At that point, release the brake pedal.
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. Release the brake pedal the tach programming is now complete.
Caution! – 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. BUT, if you are having trouble with the TACH, please call our tech support
team. Problems requiring changing the TACH jumper settings are very rare.
TRANSPONDER PROGRAMMING
This procedure is detailed in the full installation guide. To obtain a copy of the installation guide, please visit our
website at
www.autostart.ca.
RESETTING THE MODULE
WARNING! By resetting the module, all programmed values are erased  i.e.: tach, transmitter as well as
programming options. The programming options are returned to their default values.
1. Enter programming Mode (page 3).
2. Once having reached the programming mode, quickly press and release the brake pedal until the parking
lights flash 8 times.
BYPASS
Remote starters of this series have the ability to work in two way mode (D2D) with Xpresskit bypass modules.
They also offer one way communication with Xpresskit, ADS and Fortin brand bypass modules. Note: For
Hardware 5.0 and higher there can only be one bypass connected to the unit.
