➜ system maintenance The system requires no specific maintenance. Your remote control is powered by a small, lightweight 3 volt lithium battery (CR2032) that will last approximately one year under normal use. When the battery weakens, operating range will be reduced and the LED on the remote will dim. ➜ your warranty Your warranty registration must be returned and the bar code serial number must not be removed. If the warranty registration is not returned, you do not have a warranty.
3101 Series transmitter functions This system uses a computer-based learn routine to learn the transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any transmitter button to any system function. The transmitter initially comes programmed with Standard Configuration, but may also be customized by an authorized dealer. The buttons described in this manual correspond to a Standard Configuration transmitter.
Button Silent Mode™ and an optional auxiliary function are controlled by pressing this button. (Silent Mode works by pressing this button for less than one second before arming or disarming. An optional auxiliary function, such as trunk release, can be controlled by pressing this button for 1.5 seconds.) The auxiliary output controls __________________________. Button The panic feature is controlled by pressing this button for two seconds.
and Buttons An optional auxiliary convenience or expansion function that you have added to your system can be activated by pressing these buttons simultaneously. The auxiliary output controls_________________________. and Buttons An optional auxiliary convenience or expansion function that you have added to your system can be activated by pressing these buttons simultaneously. The auxiliary output controls_________________________.
While the system is armed, the status LED will flash approximately once per second, indicating that the system is actively protecting your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming, and see the status LED flashing in groups, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification. ➜ passive arming The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called passive arming).
When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows: ➤ Light impacts will trigger the Warn Away® signal. When triggered, the siren will chirp and the parking lights will flash for a few seconds. ➤ Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered sequence is between 1-180 seconds of constant siren and flashing parking lights. ➤ 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.
➤ Press one time: The parking lights flash once. The system is armed. ➤ Press a second time within five seconds: The parking lights flash twice. Zone 2 is now bypassed. ➤ Press a third time within five seconds: The parking lights flash three times. Zone 4 is now bypassed. ➤ Press a fourth time within five seconds: The parking lights flash four times. Zone 7 is now bypassed. ➤ Press a fifth time within five seconds: The parking lights flash five times. Zones 2 and 4 are now bypassed.
➜ disarming To disarm the system, press . You will hear two chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If the power locks are connected to the system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps either four or five times when disarming, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This is called Tamper Alert. ➜ high security disarm This security system offers High Security Disarm.
➜ disarming without a transmitter This feature allows you to disarm the security system without the remote transmitter should it be lost, damaged, or disabled. In order to disarm the system without a remote transmitter, you must have the vehicle’s ignition key and know where the Valet button is located. Be sure to check with the installer for the location and the number of presses of the Valet button required to disarm the system. To disarm the security system, turn the ignition to the ON position.
➜ dome light control security only The dome light activates for 30-seconds after the system is disarmed. Ignition controlled The dome light activates for 30-seconds after the ignition is turned On. door controlled The dome light activates for 30-seconds after the system sees a door has closed. (If door was held open for longer than 3 minutes the dome light will not illuminate.) full The dome light activates for 30-seconds after seeing door closure, ignition, or security disarm.
➜ panic mode If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract attention by triggering the system with your transmitter. Just press or 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 , or on the remote transmitter again. ➜ valet mode You can prevent your security system from automatically arming and triggering by using Valet Mode.
To enter or exit Valet Mode using the transmitter: 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. ➜ one-time bypass This feature stops the alarm from arming or activating any outputs that are programmed to activate when the alarm is armed. One-time bypass will defeat the following actions: Passive arming: If programmed ON the alarm will not arm itself.
To cancel one-time bypass perform one of the following: Arm then disarm the alarm. Turn the ignition On for more than 3-seconds. ➜ 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.
NPC® is programmable. See Programming Options section of this guide. auxiliary outputs (options) This system also supplies outputs that can control convenience options such as remote control trunk release and window automation. Consult your dealer for available options for your system. Channel 2 Trunk release: When connected, pressing for 1.5 seconds will remotely release the vehicle trunk lid.
diagnostics The microprocessor at the heart of your security system is constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors that are connected to it. It detects 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 charts for diagnostic information.
➜ disarming diagnostics Extra disarm chirps are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard when disarming, the system was triggered in your absence. If five chirps are heard, a zone was triggered so many times that Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry has bypassed that zone. The status LED will indicate which zone was involved. (See Table of Zones section of this guide.
➜ table of zones The zone number is the number of LED flashes used by the system to identify that input. The standard input assignments are listed below, along with spaces to write in any optional sensors or switches you have had installed. Zone - Number of LED Flashes Description Dealer-Installed Options 1 Instant trigger - often used for trunk pinswitches 2 Shock sensor input - a light impact activates warn away and a heavier impact activates full alarm.
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 six 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 six zones that were triggered. Contact your dealer for details.
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 feature available exclusively from Directed. Using the Directed Bitwriter®, a hand-held programming tool, your dealer can program many of the system settings.
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, VRS®, and Valet Mode.
programming Programming options control what your system does during normal operation, and require few or no additional parts. However, some may require additional installation labor. The following is a list of the program settings, with the factory settings in Bold: ➤ Active arming (only with the transmitter) or passive arming (automatic arming 30-seconds after the last door has been closed). ➤ Arming/disarming confirmation siren chirps on or off.
note: When programmed for passive arming and active lock, if the system is disarmed without a door being opened, the system will relock the doors when it passively rearms. ➤ Panic mode enabled/disabled with the ignition on: Some states have laws against siren capability in a moving vehicle.
AED feature by turning the ignition key to the RUN position and pressing the Valet button the programmed number of times. AED is disabled when the system is in Valet Mode. note: This feature will only function if the Failsafe® Starter Kill relay has been installed. ➤ Full trigger response 30 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.
➤ Valet pulse count: The number of presses of the Valet button required to disarm the security system, AED, or the VRS® system can be programmed from one to five presses. The default setting is one press. ➤ Siren tones and chirp volume: The output of the Revenger® Soft Chirp® siren consists of six different tones in sequence. Any of these tones can be eliminated by your dealer, resulting in a unique, easily identifiable siren sound.
vehicle recovery system (vrs®) The optional VRS® feature is designed to ensure that any unauthorized user of your vehicle (even if using your keys and remote control) will not be able to permanently separate you from your vehicle. The VRS® cannot prevent a carjacking attempt; however, it does ensure that if your vehicle is taken by an unauthorized user, it will be disabled (after several progressive warnings) as safely as possible.
➜ arming the vrs® To arm the VRS®, turn the ignition to the ON position and press the arm button on the remote transmitter for one second. The parking lights will flash and the siren will chirp once. This can be done before driving or while driving the vehicle. Once the system is armed, it will initiate its triggered sequence (see below) if any door is opened and closed. If you are forced from the vehicle, the system will trigger as the door is opened and closed.
Fifteen seconds after the siren chirps begin, the siren’s output will change to a continuous blast. From this point on, when the ignition key is turned off, the VRS® will immediately turn on the starter kill. This will prevent the vehicle from being restarted, thus immobilizing it at that spot. Three minutes after the constant siren output begins, the flashing parking lights and the siren will stop. The starter kill will remain active until the system is disarmed.
If the system has entered the triggered sequence (siren has begun chirping), pressing the disarm button of the transmitter will not disarm VRS®. To disarm the VRS® during a VRS® trigger sequence: 1. Turn the ignition on. 2. Press the Valet button the preprogrammed number of times to DRW-35 disarm the VRS® system. note: If the VRS® system has begun its chirping sequence, the ignition must be turned off, then on to disarm.
Forced Passive Arming: If passive arming is on and a door is left open the system will be armed after 30-seconds. High Security Disarm: If the system is triggered this feature allows the user to silence the siren and reset the system to the armed state without having to visually check the system status. Multi-level Arming: Allows bypassing of user selected alarm zones of the vehicle.
shock sensor adjustment ➜ enter shock sensor adjustment mode important:: Prior to performing this procedure the system must be disarmed, the doors, trunk and hood must be closed, and the ignition must be Off. 1. Press and hold and buttons for 6-seconds. 2. The system will emit 1 long chirp to indicate entry into shock adjustment mode. 3. The LED will illuminate continuously for the duration of shock adjustment mode.
2. Decrease Sensitivity—Press and release the button to decrease shock sensor sensitivity by one step. The siren will chirp 1-time for each step decreased in adjustment. When the shock sensor adjustment reaches minimum sensitivity (sensor is Off ) the siren will emit 1 short and then 1 long chirp. 3. Testing Sensor—Use the heel of the palm of your hand to strike the door pillar of the car after making an adjustment. The siren will chirp once if the impact was great enough to generate a full trigger.
➜ reset shock sensor to default setting The shock sensor can be restored to a default setting of 10 to facilitate re-adjustment at any time while in adjustment mode. 1. Simultaneously press the and buttons. 2. The system will emit 3 chirps to indicate the sensor has been reset to level 10. 3. The system returns to shock sensor adjustment mode for further adjustment, if required. 40 © 2005 directed electronics, inc.
security & convenience expansions Here we have listed only some of the many expansion options available. Please contact your dealer for a complete explanation of all the options available to you. Audio Sensor: Metal on glass, glass cracking, and breaking glass each produce distinctive acoustic signatures. The 506T audio sensor uses a microphone to pick up sounds, and then analyzes them with proprietary acoustic software to determine if the glass has been struck.
Power Trunk Release: The channel two output of the system can operate a factory power release for the vehicle’s trunk or hatch. (An additional relay may be required.) If the factory release is not power activated, then 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.
glossary of terms Control Unit: The "brain" of your system. Usually hidden under the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor which monitors your vehicle and controls all of the system's functions. Fail Safe Starter Kill: An automatic switch controlled by the secu- rity system which prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking whenever the system is armed.
Trigger or Triggered Sequence: This is what happens when the alarm "goes off" or "trips". The triggered response of your system consists of the siren sounding and parking light flashing for the programmed duration. Valet Button: A small push-button switch mounted somewhere inside the vehicle. It is used to override the alarm when a transmitter is lost or damaged, or to enter or exit Valet mode. Warn Away Response: Lighter impacts to the vehicle will generate the Warning Zone response.
