INTRODUCTIONINTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing CompuStar, a state-of-the-art Two-Way alarm/remote start
systems for your vehicle. We, at Firstech, Inc., are constantly researching and
developing to make you and your vehicle safe and more comfortable. Security and
comfort, that’s what Firstech, Inc. is all about.
CompuStar 2000AS system consists of the following two devices:
Brain: This 5 inch by 3.5 inch by 1 inch rectangular black box is the “brain” of the
CompuStar 2000AS system by transmitting and receiving functions from the remote-
pager unit using a unique FM frequency for up to a ¼ mile distance. This allows the
brain to perform car tasks such as remote keyless entry, auto-start and security
alerts.
Remote-Pager: This device allows the user to activate multiple functions of the
CompuStar 2000AS brain such as auto-start, keyless entry, and security features by
pressing a combination of 4 buttons on the unit for up to a ¼ mile distance. Also,
the unique color LCD display called CompuGlo allows the user to visually and
audibly monitor the security status of your car at all times.
