6 Pin Main Wire Harness (cont’d) ORANGE WIRE - ACCESSORY/IGN/START (+) IN/OUT This circuit is designed to power additional IGNITION, ACCESSORY, or START circuits. By default, it functions as an ACCESSORY output & turns on when remote start is activated (slightly earlier than the ignition output), turns off during engine cranking, & turns back on for the remainder of the remote start operation. CONNECTION: Use any IGNITION, ACCESSORY, or secondary START circuit in the vehicle.
14 Pin Secondary Wire Harness (cont’d) BLACK/WHITE WIRE - NEUTRAL SAFETY (-) INPUT REQUIRED. This input is a critical safety circuit which allows remote start operation whenever the gear selector is in park or neutral (automatic transmission), or when the parking brake is applied (manual transmission). Remote start will not operate unless this wire sees chassis ground.

14 Pin Secondary Wire Harness (cont’d) MANUAL TRANSMISSION CONNECTION: The Gray wire also serves as a door pin input (must see all doors) which is required to perform the “manual transmission setup procedure” (detailed in the operation guide). Diode isolate the hood input from the door input using two 1 or 2 amp diodes facing the cathodes (stripes) towards the vehicle wires. If the vehicle’s door pin wire is positive, you must invert the signal with a relay.
3 Pin Satellite Relay Port (RED) GREEN WIRE - START (-) PROGRAMMABLE OUTPUT This output provides a 250mA negative pulse when the large VIOLET start wire is active. It can also be programmed for PULSE AFTER START, STATUS, or DOMELIGHT SUPERVISION. See installer programmable feature #5. CONNECTION: If a negative start output is needed, connect this directly to the vehicle’s negative starter circuit. Otherwise, use a relay (or RS-RP module) to convert this to a high current circuit.
Window Mount Antenna Module Be sure to clean the glass before adhering the antenna. Mount it high in the windshield avoiding metal parts of the vehicle . Metal based window tint can decrease performance. Route the harness to the antenna module avoiding sharp objects that could compromise the harness jacket. 3D Motion Sensor Some models are equipped with a motion sensor that provides added protection for remote start by shutting down the engine if motion is detected during the START output.
Vehicle Learn (cont’d) Step 7: OPTIONAL: To enable Manual Transmission Reservation mode, release and set the parking brake. (The BLACK/WHITE wire must be connected to the parking brake.) System should chirp/flash lights 1x. Step 8: TO SAVE SETTINGS: Shut down RS by pressing the BRAKE pedal. This disables VEHICLE LEARN (installer feature #2). TO CANCEL/START OVER: Shut down RS by remote or input wire. Tach Programming The vehicle’s tach signal must be learned for proper operation.

Controller & Transmitter Functions (cont’d) AUXILIARY FUNCTIONS 1-4: The actual operation of these functions will vary from car to car. They are designed to operate extra vehicle functions like automatic sliding doors or motorized hatches. Aux 1-4 are virtual outputs only available on certain vehicles when this system is integrated with the vehicle’s data network. Consult with your installer to find out if any of these functions are available for your vehicle.
Other Remote Start Features (cont’d) LOW VOLTAGE & HIGH/LOW TEMP AUTOMATIC STARTING This feature will automatically start the engine if the vehicle battery drops below 11.5 volts or the interior temperature goes above or below the pre-programmed threshold. Programming The Activation Low Temperature Threshold: • Turn the ignition switch “on”, then “off” (engine not running), and within 5 seconds press the valet switch twice.
Security System Features LAST DOOR ARMING This system can be configured to arm automatically when all the vehicle’s doors are closed (see user feature #9). When this feature is utilized, the siren/horn will chirp once when all of the doors are closed. At that point, it will start a 30 second countdown (indicated by a fast flashing status light). After 30 seconds, the system will arm (and lock the doors if configured to do so).
Using The Valet Button EMERGENCY OVERRIDE If you were to lose or break your controller, you’d need to perform an emergency override to disarm the system and use your vehicle. To do so, use the following steps: STEP 1 - Enter the vehicle (the alarm should sound). STEP 2 - Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position. STEP 3 - Press the valet switch (located in the window-mount antenna) once. NOTE: Enter your SecureCode at this time if programmed via user feature #13 STEP 4 - Turn the ignition key “OFF”.
The Status Light The status light, located in the antenna, indicates the system’s current status. SECURITY SYSTEM STATUS OFF: The alarm is disarmed and not performing any automatic functions. ON: The alarm is in valet mode. FLASHING SLOW: The alarm is armed and monitoring all entry points. FLASHING FAST: One of the automatic arming features is in progress.
Multi-Car Operation The controller can operate up to 2 different systems. When controlling 2 systems, it will receive all status updates on the currently selected vehicle profile and will receive only trigger alerts for the 2nd vehicle. You can switch from one car to the other at anytime. Use the following steps to change vehicles. SELECTING CAR #1 OR CAR #2 Toggle Vehicle: Press “P” then press UNLOCK.
Anti-Carjacking Protection The system is equipped with two separate Anti-Carjacking protection features (ignition, open door, or both). All are programmable, and must be turned on to operate. Once activated, the user has 60 seconds to cancel the Anti-Carjacking protection process (described below). If Anti-Carjacking is not cancelled, 53 seconds after being activated the siren will begin to chirp for 7 seconds to alert the user that the system is about to enter into an alarm condition.
Programming Controllers/Transmitters Standard Programming: Using this method to program additional or replacement transmitters does not turn on or otherwise affect the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert (UTA) feature. Before you begin, have all transmitters which are to operate the system at hand and make sure the correct vehicle profile (see page 13) is selected on the controller(s). Step 1 Then, turn the ignition “on”. Step 2 Within 5 seconds of Step 1, press the Valet Switch 5 times.
