MOUNTINGOF THEMAJOR COMPONENTS
Control Module: Part # 1365043
Selecta mounting locationinside the passengercompartment ( upbehind the dash), andsecureusing the
two screws provided. The control module can also be secured in place using cable ties.
Do Not mountthe controlmodulein theenginecompartment,as itisnot waterproof.You shouldalso avoid
mounting the unit directly onto factory installed electronic components. These components may
causeRFinterference, which can resultinpoor transmitter rangeorintermittent operation.
Siren: Part # AS9903
Selecta mounting locationin the enginecompartment that iswell protected fromaccess below thevehicle.
Avoidareas nearhighheat components ormovingpartswithinthe engine compartment.To prevent water
retention, the flared end of the siren must be pointed downward when mounted. Mount the siren to the
selectedlocationusing the screws andbracketprovided.
Hood or Trunk Pin Switch: (Optional) Part#1363699
An optional pin switch should be used for protecting the hood or trunk (or hatchback ) of the vehicle. The
switch must always be mounted to a grounded, metal surface of the vehicle. It is important to select a
location where water cannot flow or collect, and to avoid all drip gutters on hood and trunk fender walls.
Chooselocationsthat areprotectedby rubber gasketswhen the hoodortrunk lidisclosed. The pin switch
can be mounted using an optional bracket or can be directly mounted by drilling a ¼ “ diameter mounting
hole. Keep in mind that when properly mounted, the plunger of the pin switch should depress at least ¼ “
when the hood or trunk lid is closed.
Push-Button Program Switch/LED/Receiver/Antenna Assembly: Part # 1181201
TheSuperheterodyneReceiverAntennaAssemblyprovidedwiththisunitallows routingfrombelowthedash
board for maximum operating range. Choose a location above the belt line (dashboard) of the vehicle for
bestreception. Special considerations must be made forwindshieldglassas some newer vehicles utilize
a metallic shielded window glass that will inhibit or restrict RF reception. In these vehicles, route the
antenna toward a rear window location for best reception. Secure the antenna with double stick tape
provided.
6 Pin Receiver Harness Part # 1123908
Red,Green,Black, Gray, Blue, Plug InHarnessFor Receievr RX,TX,5 VDC, Ground, LED &Valet

WIRING THE SYSTEM
Large 8 Pin Power Connector:
Red/White (5 Amp) & Red Fused (15 Amp) Wires : + 12 VDC Constant Battery Source
This wire controls the sensitivity of the voltage sensing circuit, which detects the turning on of an interior
lightwhen a dooris opened.Itwill alsodetectthe switchingonof parkingorheadlamps andinmany cases
willtriggerthealarm when a thermostatically controlled electronic radiatorcoolingfanswitches on.
When installing this system into vehicles with electronic "after fans " it is recommended you disable the
voltagesensecircuit.
In voltage sensing applications, the closer to the battery that the red wire is connected, the less sensitive
thevoltagesense circuitrywillbe. Movingthisconnection point tothefuse panelwillincrease the sensitiv-
ity,andconnecting to thecourtesylamp fuse inthevehicle will provide maximumsensitivityof the voltage
sense circuit. Be certain to set selectable feature # 7 to 1 chirp, Voltage Sense On.
When hardwiring the control module to pin switches at all entry points, the voltage sense circuit must be
disabled.
Orange Wire: 300 mAGround Output WhenArmed

Black =Ground
White =DataTX
Yellow =Data RX
Connect the 4 pin harness found in the Telematic one way module kit to the mating port on the telematic
module and the other side to the connector on the alarm or keyless entry module.
NOTE: If using the TWO WAYTelematic module, only Ground, TX, and RX are used on this port, the
+ 12volt supply for the two way module must be sourced separately or the unit will not operate.
COMPLETINGTHE INSTALLATION
NOTE: This unit has the ability to learn the dome light delay time, up to 60 seconds. If the vehicle has
delay interior lights, and you wish to avoid three chirp, defect zone, indication normally
associated with this type of interior light, we suggest you learn the interior light delay.
TO LEARN THE DOME LIGHT ENTRYDELAY START WITHALL DOORS CLOSED:
(1) Use the transmitter to Lock / Unlock / Lock / Unlock / Lock / Unlock / Lock, the system.
The LED turns on solid to confirm the system entered the learn mode.
(2) Immediately open and close the door of the vehicle to initiate the dome delay.
Theunitwill monitorthedoor triggerinputPositive, (Purple),andNegative, (Brown)whenactive.
When the dome light turns off, the unit will add 2 seconds then exit the learn mode.
(3) The LED will begin flashing theArmed indication indicating the unit has exited the learn mode
andisarmed.
Adjusting the Shock Sensor:
If used, the sensitivity of the pre - detect circuit is automatically set 30% less sensitive than the full trigger
circuit.
Usinga smallscrewdriver, gentlyturn theadjustmentscrew fullycounterclockwise. (DONOTover turnthis
screw. Maximum rotation for this adjustment is 270°). Close the hood and trunk lids, and arm the alarm.
Wait6seconds fortheaccessories trigger zonetostabilize, thenfirmlystrike the rearbumperwith theside
ofaclosed fist considering theamountof force required tobreaka window.
WARNING ! Never perform this test on the vehicle’s glass, as you may break the window.
Turn the adjustment screw clockwise (increasing sensitivity) about ¼ turn and re-test.
Repeat this procedureuntil thealarmsounds. Ultimately, one firmstriketo therearbumper
will cause the alarm to emit pre-detect warning tones.
CAUTION: Setting the sensitivity too high can cause false alarms due to noise vibrations from passing
trucksandheavyequipment.Todecreasesensitivity,turntheadjustment screwcounter
