Before Installing:
1. Read the INSTRUCTIONS!
2. USE A DIGITAL OR ANALOG
VOLT/OHM METER
3. BEFORE MOUNTING THE PRODUCT
CHECK THE POSSIBLE LOCATIONS
FOR THE SIREN AND LED BEFORE
YOU PERMANENTLY INSTALL THEM.
4. PROTECT THE VEHICLE BY USING
FENDER COVERS.
5. ROLL DOWN THE DRIVER’S WIN-
DOW BEFORE STARTING THE INSTAL-
LATION.
6.ALWAYS LOOK BEFORE DRILLING.
MAKE SURE YOU WILL NOT CAUSE
DAMAGE TO VEHICLE HOSES, ELECTRI-
CAL LOOMS OR PHYSICAL DAMAGE
TO VEHICLE.
Timing Information:
Automatic reset time: 45 seconds,
Panic output reset time: 45 seconds,
Arming time: (when all inputs are mon-
itored): 3 seconds-active arm.
Armed output: The Gray wire will pro-
duce a grounded output when system is
armed.
Flashing Parking Light Output:
Armed: 1 second pulsed, Disarmed: 2-one
second pulses. System triggered: 1 second
pulse on, 1 second off, repeated for 45
seconds.
Input Zone Out Feature:
If a door input remains on for 4 consecu-
tive cycles (45 seconds) that input will be
ignored. If the input returns to a non-trig-
gered state for 30 seconds it will be mon-
itored by the system again.

PROGRAMMABLE FEATURES
To program these specific features
follow the procedure:
1. Anti Car Jacking:Turn the ignition
key to the ON position.Within 5 seconds
press and hold button #2 for 5 seconds.
When Anti Car Jacking is enabled, the
siren will chirp once.When disabled it will
chirp twice.
2. Current Sensor:Turn the ignition key
to the ON position, within 5 seconds
press and hold button #1 for 5 seconds,
when current sense is enabled siren will
chirp once, when disabled it will chirp
twice.
3. Shock Sensor:Turn the ignition key
to the ON position, within 5 seconds
press and hold buttons #1 & #2 for 5
seconds, the siren will chirp 5 times after
3 seconds.The system is now ready to
learn the impact. Hit the car with the
same level you want to trigger the alarm.
After learning the impact level, the siren
will sound a burst of chirps confirming it
has learned the impact level.
4. Temporary Remote Trigger Bypass:
If you wish to have the system ignore the
door inputs, but wish to have the starter
disable feature engaged:
a. Press Button #1, you will hear a nor-
mal arming chirp, (as long as arming
chirps are on).
b. Within 5 seconds press Button #2, you
will hear a second short chirp, confirming
that all inputs will not be monitored.
Once you disarm and rearm, the doors
will be monitored normally.
5. Code Learning Mode: If you wish to
“teach”the system different remote
controls:
a. Make sure system is disarmed or in
valet mode,
b. Turn the ignition switch on 5 times
within 5 seconds and leave it in the on
position (ON, OFF, ON, OFF, ON, OFF,
ON, OFF, then ON), you will hear one
chirp from the siren, the LED will flash
one time,You must press all of the arming
buttons on all transmitters that you
desire to operate.You will hear a chirp
after the system has learned each remote
control.The system will hold 3 different
codes in memory.
c. Siren will chirp after 5 seconds to exit
learn mode. If the green wire is not con-
nected to the ignition switch, touch wire
to 12V+ five times within 5 seconds.
NOTE: Once you enter the code learn-
ing mode, the system will throw out any
previously programmed remotes. If you
are programming two remotes with the
same code, the system will acknowledge
only the first remote. Even though both
remotes will operate the system.
6. Silent Arm/Disarm: If you wish to
arm or disarm your alarm, but do not
want the siren to chirp:
a. Press Button #2 momentarily.This will
temporarily delete the arm or disarm
chirps. Chirp can only be heard if standing
right next to the vehicle. Chirps will be
muted for one complete cycle (arm/disarm).

INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Mount the Siren:
Locate a suitable place under the hood,
away from hot and moving engine parts
such as manifolds, turbo chargers, fan
belts, etc. Secure siren by screwing brack-
et to a solid location under the hood.
Make sure that there is no outside access
to both siren and wire from underneath
the vehicle or through the grill.
Point the siren down so that water may
not accumulate inside the siren bell.
Ground the black wire of the siren to a
solid ground; preferably, use a star washer
and ring terminal.
When running wires inside the vehicle,
use either tape or split loom tubing.
Always use either existing grommets or if
a new hole is needed protect the wire
from chaffing by installing a proper size
grommet.
2. Install the Status
Indicator (LED): (Optional)
Locate a suitable place for the status indi-
cator (LED), drill the appropriate size
hole (7/16”). Make sure there is enough
depth for the LED to fit all the way in,
and can be easily seen from outside the
vehicle. Carefully run the LED and 2 pin
red connector and wire harness to the
module and plug into the matching red
two pin connector on the module. Push
the LED into the hole, it should fit snugly.
3. Connect Starter
Disable Relay: (Optional)
Using a volt/ohm meter locate the starter
wire (normally a heavier gauge wire) off
of the ignition switch.The meter will read
12V+ only during cranking.When the
starter wire has been located, cut the
wire, the vehicle should not be able to
start now. Connect the gray wire to a
relay (See starter disable relay on page 5).
4. Connect Negative door
input: Blue wire on main har-
ness (Optional)
Connect the blue wire from the harness
to the wire that shows ground when all
of the doors are opened.Verify with a
volt/ohm meter. Make sure that all doors
when opened separately make the target
wire provide a ground output.
5. Connect Hood/ Trunk switch
input:Blue wire on main har-
ness (Optional)
Connect the blue wire to either or both
hood and trunk switches.They must pro-
vide a ground output when the trunk or
hood are opened.You must use a diode
to isolate your hood wire from your
door wire.
6. Connect the Flashing
Parking Light Output: Yellow
wire main harness.
Using a volt/ohm meter, locate the wire
(usually on the head light switch) that
3

shows 12V+ when only the parking lights
are switched on. European vehicles may
require an additional relay if they have
separate wires that switch on the left and
right side parking lights.
This relayed output has a maximum of 10
amps. Do not hook to head lights. (See
diagram section).
7. Connect 12V+ Power Input:
Red wire on main harness
Connect the red fused wire on the main
harness to a constant 12V+ source.
This source wire should be at least 20
amp supply.There usually is a main con-
stant power wire on the ignition switch.
Use volt/ohm meter to verify.
8. Connect the 12V+ ignition
input: Green wire on main
harness (Optional)
Connect the green wire on the main har-
ness to a main ignition wire.This can be
also found in the main ignition switch
wire harness.Your volt/ohm meter will
read 12V+ when key is turned on.
Make sure that this ignition wire has
12V+ on even during the starting process
of the vehicle. It is important that the
voltage does not drop when the car is
starting.
Some vehicles have ignition wires that
remain or slowly drop to 0 volts.Verify
that when the ignition is shut off that the
voltage drops to 0Volts immediately. If
the green wire has voltage on it after the
key is turned off, it will keep the alarm
from arming via the remote.
9. Connect Ground Input:
Black wire on main harness
Locate a good solid chassis ground and
connect to the black wire on main har-
ness.Verify the ground with your
volt/ohm meter.
10. Plug in the main harness to
the module.
11. Test features, functions
and adjust shock sensor.
Arm and disarm system, check that the
siren chirps and parking lights are func-
tioning normally. Make sure that the pro-
grammed features are performing cor-
rectly.
Test the door inputs (make sure that you
check that all doors trigger the system
not just the drivers door).Arm the sys-
tem and try starting the vehicle, it should
not start.
Check for range with the remotes. See
that they arm and disarm all the way
around the vehicle; adjust the module
antenna location if necessary.
Using the remote check for the user fea-
tures: chirp mute, temporary trigger and
bypass.
Deliver the vehicle to customer.
