Echo is configured for “MUTE” operation (vibrates instead chirping), then in
programming it will not play the musical melodies. Instead, it vibrates when
the remote starting Start Melody and Stop Melody are accessed for program-
ming.
Other Omega Echo Notes:
• The system will only transmit a signal to the Echo transceiver if the Echo was
last used to operate the system (as in Arming or Disarming it). Example: if
the transmitter is used to Arm the system, the system will not transmit a signal
which will cause the Echo to chirp and change its icons.
• If multiple Echo transceivers are programmed to operate the system, the sys-
tem will send its signal to only one transceiver- the last one used.
• When the Crime Guard 850i4e system does send a signal to the Echo trans-
ceiver, a few seconds is needed for this “handshake” to occur. If the
system is operated in a rapid fashion, as in quickly repeating Arm and Disarm
cycles, the Echo will not have time to receive the signal from the system, and
therefore it will stop responding and reporting the system’s status. Normally
operating the system corrects this symptom.
• A final point to remember is that the Echo transceiver cannot receive a signal
from the 850i4e system while it itself is transmitting. For normal operations,
the Echo’s buttons are pressed and released. Even when “Panic” is operated,
the Echo button should be released as soon as “Panic” engages. Otherwise,
the Echo cannot receive the signal from the system.
FEATURES PROGRAMMING CHECKLIST
This handy checklist simplifies the features programming process. Before
attempting feature programming, please refer to pages 27-43 for the full
programming procedure and a detailed description of each feature.

chirp) or press the "Disarm/Unlock" button to turn the feature “off” (2
chirps).
Step 2 - Pressthe Valet Switch thesamenumber of times asthedesired feature
number. The system will chirp back the same number.
Step 1 - Turn the ignition “off”, and press the Valet Switch 5 times. The siren
will briefly sound to confirm programming mode.

ABOUT YOUR NEW CRIME GUARD SYSTEM
Congratulations on your purchase of a new Crime Guard security and remote
starting system. Crime Guard systems combine the benefits of easy-to-use
convenience with “no nonsense” protection of property and person. Please
reviewthisguide to become familiar withyourCrimeGuard vehicle security and
remote starting system. To operate your system, the four principal components
are first described: the Remote Transmitter and Remote Transceiver, the Status
Light, and the Valet Switch.
The Status Light: The multicolored Status Light, placed in a visible location
in the vehicle’s interior, reports the operational status of the system at all times,
and also serves as a visual deterrent to break-ins and theft. Specific description
of the Status Light operation may be found on pages 25-26.
The Valet Switch: The Valet Switch has three main functions:
✓TheValet Switchcan beused to turnoff thesecurity functions,including any
automatic arming or locking features (if used), and/or remote engine starting
functions of the system. The former is “Alarm Valet Mode”; the later is
“Starting Valet Mode” (pages 23-24).
✓The Valet Switch can also be used, in conjunction with the vehicle’s ignition
key, to perform an emergency disarming of the security system in the event
the transmitter or transceiver is lost or becomes inoperable. This is referred
to as “performing an Emergency Override” (pages 13-14).
✓The Valet Switch is used in the procedure of programming operational
features and also for encoding transmitters and transceivers to the system.

The Remote Transmitter and
Remote Transceiver: Your system
comes with two pre-learned remote
controls; one is a “transmitter”, and the
otherisa2-way“transceiver”,theOmega
Echo. Theremotetransceiver,inaddition
to operating your system, also receives
signals from the system, and displays a
variety of system conditions on its LCD
screen. Your system can be operated by
as many as four transmitters and/or
transceivers.
The remote transmitter and
transceiver both share the same four
operational buttons- the “Arm
/Lock”, the “Disarm/Unlock”,
the “Auxiliary #2” and
“Auxiliary #3” buttons.
The Echo transceiver
has a fifth button, the
“Programming” button;
pressing this button
will illuminate the LCD
screen.
Remote Transceiver Icons: The LCD screen on the remote transceiver has
various icons which indicate system status. When the remote transceiver is used
tooperate thesystem, itreceives backasignalwhichcausesitto chirp(emulating
the siren) and display the appropriate icons. Brief descriptions of the icons are:
• The digit readout is a clock, with AM and PM indication. This readout also

protection, allowing normal use of the vehicle.
There are three methods of Arming the security system:
1- The first method is to use the transmitter or transceiver, by pressing and
releasing its “Arm/Lock” button. The system must not be in Alarm Valet
Mode(page23-24),andthevehicle’signitionswitchmustbeoff.Everypress
of the “Arm/Lock” button arms the system, even if it is already armed.
2- Thesecond methodisto pressand releasethe transmitterortransceiver’s“II”
button twice within 5 seconds. This is “Silent Arming”.
3- The third method is Last Door Arming, which configures the system to
automatically arm every time you exit the vehicle. This method of arming is
programmable, and may be used or not used as desired.

Your Crime Guard 850i4e system is capable of being operated by as many as
fourcontrollers;thesecanbeanycombinationofstandardCrimeGuardtransmitters
orOmegaEcho transceivers. Regardless of which, the transmitter ortransceiver
must be encoded, or programmed, to the system in order to operate it (excepting
the originals, which were programmed at the factory). This programming
procedure is identical for a transmitter or Echo transceiver. To program
additional or replacement transmitters or transceivers, follow this procedure:
Haveallofthe transmitters or transceivers at hand (when oneisprogrammed,all
others are erased).
Step 1 Turn the vehicle’s ignition “on”.
Step 2 Within 5 seconds of turning "on" the ignition, press the Valet Switch 5
times. The siren will chirp once, confirming that the system is ready to
learn a transmitter.
Step 3 Within10seconds pressand releasethe“Arm/Lock”button(the “locked
padlock”graphic). Thesiren will chirp once,confirmingthat the system
learned the transmitter.
Step 4 Repeat the previous step for each transmitter or transceiver which is to
operate the system.
Onlythe“Arm/Lock” button is pressedinprogramming; when it is learnedallof
theotherbuttons’ functions areautomaticallyassigned. The system willremove
itself from the programming mode if 10 seconds expire without its receiving a
signal, if the ignition is turned “off”, or upon four transmitters or transceivers
being programmed into the system.
Please note that programming a transmitter to the system will activate the

PROGRAMMING TRANSMITTERS
OR ECHO TRANSCEIVERS

Arming Bypass:
When arming the system using the transmitter or transceiver, if any pro-
tected zone or sensor circuit is in a violated condition, the affected zone or
circuit will be automatically bypassed. This is “Arming Bypass”, which allows
the system to still arm and protect the other normal, non-violated zones. In the
case of a bypassed zone or circuit, should the violated condition return to nor-
mal, 5 seconds after becoming normal the system restores protection to the pre-
viously bypassed zone or circuit.
If the hood and trunk zone, or sensor circuit is bypassed when the system is
armed, instead of the normal arming confirmation the siren will chirp four times
and the parking lights will flash four times to alert you. However, if a door
zone is bypassed, the siren and light confirmation will be the normal two chirps
and flashes, as many vehicles are equipped with a delayed interior light illumi-
nation. In these vehicles, the interior light delay would typically cause the sys-
tem to indicate a bypass if the system is armed during the delay. In these cases,
the arming indication is normal, and the door zone is protected by the system
five seconds after the interior light turns off.
When the remote transceiver is used and Arming Bypass occurs, it will chirp
four times itself (instead of two) and flash the icon of the violated zone.
• The starter interrupt will engage.
• The Status Light will begin to flash slowly in Red.
Three seconds after arming, the security system becomes fully armed, and will
activate to an alarm condition should an intrusion attempt be detected.
LAST DOOR ARMING BY EXITING THE CAR
Last Door Arming:
Last Door Arming is a programmable feature which configures the system
to arm itself without the need of a command from the transmitter or transceiver.
This convenient feature offers a high level of security and may entitle the ve-
hicle owner to an insurance discount since the user does not need to remember to
arm the system each time the vehicle is exited.
Page 7
Upon Arming with the Echo Transceiver, it will:
• The transceiver will chirp twice (or four times if a zone is bypassed).
• The “ARM” icon will appear.
• The “locked lock” icon appears, confirming that doors have locked.
• The number of operating transmitters or transceivers is briefly displayed.

28;atStep 4theValetSwitchwillbepressedandreleasedtwentynine times. The
system’s response will be twenty nine siren chirps, and the Status Light flashing
twenty nine times, pausing, then repeating. Within 10 seconds, press and release
the transmitter’s "Arm/Lock" button to configure the system for Tachless
operation (the siren will chirp once) or the "Disarm/Unlock" button to configure
the system for Tach Wire operation (the siren will chirp twice).
Feature #30 Stick Shift Remote Starting
(Factory Default “Tachless”)
This feature changes the parameters of the 850i4e’s remote start operation to
be suitable for manual transmission-equipped vehicles via a “setup” procedure
whichmustbefollowed upon exiting the vehicle. When this feature isturnedon,
the operator must set the parking brake and then press the transmitter’s “Arm/
Lock” and “Disarm/Unlock” buttons, which keeps the engine running after
removing the ignition key. After exiting, the user must then arm the 850i4e and
lock the vehicle doors by pressing the transmitter’s “Arm/Lock” button. Only
after this will the system accept a remote start command, and the vehicle must
remain undisturbed until that point. The complete instructions for remote
starting, including Stick Shift Remote Starting, is on pages 18 through 22.
Programming Stick Shift Remote Starting: The operation of this
feature depends on the correct connection of the safety wire to the vehicle’s
parking brake; please refer to the “Installation Manual” for proper connection of
this wire. To program the feature, follow Steps 1 to 4 on page 28; at Step 4 the
ValetSwitchwillbepressedandreleasedthirtytimes. Thesystem’sresponsewill
be thirty siren chirps, and the Status Light flashing thirty times, pausing, then

Feature #31 Turbo Timer
(Factory Default Setting OFF)
Thisfeature,described on pages 21-22,whenturned on configures the 850i4e
to automatically keep the engine running for 2 minutes after it is turned off. This
operation is designed specifically for vehicles having turbocharged engines (the
user may temporarily bypass the feature if desired).

The Last Door Arming process:
1- When the vehicle’s ignition has been turned off, the system waits until a door
is opened. When the door is closed, or when the last door is closed when
more than one door is opened, the siren will chirp twice, the parking lights
will flash twice, and the Status Light will begin flashing Red rapidly. The
Last Door Arming countdown has begun.
2- Thirty seconds later the siren will again chirp twice, the parking lights will
again flash twice, the starter interrupt will engage, and the Status Indicator
Light will begin flashing Red slowly. If programmed , the vehicle’s doors
will also lock.* Three seconds after these actions occur, the system is fully
armed.
Notes:
• If the remote transceiver was last used to operate the system, when Last Door
Armingisusedto arm the system the transceiver will chirptwiceandshow the
“ARM” icon when system becomes fully armed 30 seconds after the last door
isclosed. Ifthedoorsareprogrammedtoalsolock*,the“locked”iconwillalso
appear when this occurs.
• If a door is reopened during the thirty second period between the first and
second set of double chirps, the countdown will stop and reset. When the
reopened door is closed again, the 30 second countdown starts over again at
the beginning.
• LastDoorArmingisseparate from,and doesnoteffecttheoperationofarming
by using the transmitter or transceiver.
• All protected points must be closed or otherwise in a non-violated state for the
Last Door Arming sequence to start. Unlike active arming from the transmit-
ter or transceiver, the system can not bypass an open or detected zone and arm
itself.
To temporarily prevent the system from arming itself:
• Placethe systeminto AlarmValet Modeusing theValet Switch(pages 23-24).
• Leave a vehicle door open. Although this varies depending on the vehicle, in
mostcasesturningontheinteriorlightwillbedetectedbythesystemasanopen

• Although the system will not Last Door Arm while the ignition is on, leaving
the ignition key turned on without the engine running is not recommended.
The Last Door Arming feature may include, if desired, the automatic locking of
the vehicle’s doors when the system arms itself.*

button to configure the system for gasoline engines (the siren will chirp once)
or the "Disarm/Unlock" button to configure the system for diesel engines (the
siren will chirp twice).

While the system is in the Armed state:
• The Status Light will be flashing slowly Red to confirm that the system is
armed, and also serve as a visual deterrent.
• The starter interrupt circuit is engaged.
• All protected zones are being monitored for intrusion attempts.
Should an Activation into the Alarm Condition occur:
• The changing-tone electronic siren will loudly sound.
• The parking and interior lights will flash.
• Thedoorswilllock,*regardlessoftheirlockedorunlockedstatus. Thisfeature
is unique- if the system detects that a door is opened, it waits until the door is
closed before relocking it, denying the thief reentry.
An activated alarm condition has a duration of 30 seconds (60 is optional)
unless the system is disarmed using the transmitter, transceiver, or the Valet
Switch. If all protected zones are secure at the end of the alarm condition, the
system will stop and rearm automatically, ready to detect another entry attempt.
If a protected zone is still violated at the end of the alarm condition, the system
will reactivate for up to two additional alarm cycles. After the third alarm cycle
the system will automatically rearm and bypass the open zone until that zone
returns to a normal “non-violated” state.
• Once the system resets after it has been activated, upon disarming the audible
and visual confirmation will change to indicate the activation. This is the
“Activation Alert”, which is explained on pages 11-12.
The Echo Remote Transceiver’s reaction to the alarm condition:
If the remote transceiver was previously used to arm or operate the system, it
will react to an alarm activation, provided it is within range of the system. Upon
receiving a signal from the activated system, the transceiver will:
• The transceiver will start chirping, and continue chirping until any transceiver
button is pressed.
• An icon will start flashing, indicating which protected zone’s violation caused
the system’s alarm condition.
When silencing the transceiver’s alarm chirps, please note the differences of
pressing it’s buttons:
• Pressing “Arm/Lock” will rearm the system, stopping both system’s alarm
condition (leaving it armed) and the transceiver’s chirping.

The remote transceiver will display the flashing icon indicating the violated zone,
while the system is disarmed, until the ignition switch is turned on.
There are three methods of Disarming the security system:
1- The first method is to press and release the transmitter or transceiver’s
“Disarm/Unlock” button to disarm the system. This is the normal method.
2- The second method is to press and release the transmitter or transceiver’s “II”
button twice within 5 seconds. This is “silent Disarming”.
3- The third method is for emergencies, should the transmitter become lost or
inoperable. This is the “Emergency Override”, and uses the ignition key and
the Valet Switch.

Safety Disarm Feature:
Pressing and releasing the “Disarm/Unlock button while the system is
activated in the alarm condition will disarm the system, but the doors will re-
main locked. This is the “Safety Disarm” feature, which allows the vehicle to
remain secure, even though an activated system has been disarmed. Safety Dis-
arm will also cancel Automatic Rearming (if it is programmed to operate). This
feature is also very useful when the vehicle is exposed to environmental condi-
tions such as storms, trains or heavy vehicles, which may cause false activations.
Safety Disarm is a temporary “one time” operation which occurs only while
the system is activated. To remotely unlock the doors after a Safety Disarm,
simply press the “Disarm/Unlock” button again.
Upon Disarming the System will:
• The siren will chirp once (or three times if an alarm activation occurred)
unless the silent disarming procedure is followed.
• The parking and dome lights will illuminate for 30 seconds (5 seconds is
optional) unless the vehicle’s ignition is turned on. If the system has been
activated, the parking lights will flash 3 times before illuminating.
• The doors will unlock, either all doors or driver’s door only.*
• The starter interrupt will disengage.
• The Status Light will show one of these features or conditions:
-Flashing Red rapidly = Automatic Rearming feature is in progress.
-Off = System disarmed (Automatic Rearming feature not selected).
-Flash Red /Pause = Indicates violated zone if system has been activated.
Upon Disarming with the Echo Transceiver, it will:
• The transceiver will chirp once (or three times if the system was activated).
• The “DISARM” icon will appear.
• The “unlocked lock” icon appears, confirming that doors have unlocked.
• The number of operating transmitters or transceivers is briefly displayed.
When Disarming and Driver’s Door Priority unlocking is utilized, if the “Un-
lock/Disarm” neither the system nor the transceiver will repeat the Disarming
confirmation indicators. As the system does not transmit a signal to the trans-
ceiver, its “in range” icon will disappear, and then reappear again when the sys-
tem is next Armed, or other remote function is used.

Feature #22 Soft or Loud Horn Confirmation Chirps
(Factory Default Setting Medium Low)
Thisfeatureis only available for usewhentheprevious feature is programmed
for the "Pulsed Horn" setting. If the system is configured to use the vehicle's
horn, this feature allows four different volume levels of chirping the vehicle's
horn in a satisfactory manner.
Programming the Chirp Confirmation:
Programming this feature uses all four transmitter or transceiver operation
buttons. FollowSteps1to4onpage28;atStep4theValetSwitchwillbepressed
and released twenty two times. The system’s response will be twenty two siren
chirps, and the Status Light flashing twenty two times, pausing, then repeating.
Within 10 seconds, press and release the transmitter/transceiver buttons accord-
ing as follows, which the systems chirp response also indicated:
"Arm/Lock" button = lowest volume chirp (one chirp)
"Disarm/Unlock" button = medium low volume chirp (two chirps)
“II” button = medium high volume chirp (three chirps)
“III” button = highest volume chirp (four chirps)
Bearin mindthatwhile programmingthis feature,allbuttons canbesequentially
pressed, and the setting with the best chirp confirmation be chosen.
Feature #23 1 Or 2 Button Arming / Disarming
(Factory Default Setting 2 Button Operation)
This feature changes the configuration of how the transmitter or Echo
transceiver operates the system. In the factory default setting of “2 Button
Operation”,oneofthetransmitter/transceiver’sbuttonswillonlyArmthesystem
(the “Arm/Lock” button), and a second button will only disarm the system (the
“Disarm/Unlock” button). When this feature is programmed to the “1 Button

operate the transmitter from a pocket or purse. You may not even be aware of an
accidental disarming due to the enhanced operating distance offered by the
Extended Range Transmitter.
How It Works:
Whenever the system is disarmed by the transmitter, this feature starts a 90
second countdown, which is indicated by a rapidly flashing Red Status Light.
During this 90 second period, if no protected entry points are opened and the
vehicle’signitionisNOTturnedon,thesystemwillautomaticallyarmitselfatthe
end of the countdown. If desired, the system can also be programmed to
automatically relock the doors when this occurs.
of the normal one chirp and one light flash. Additionally, the Status Light will
be flashing a “Zone Violation Code”. When the alarm condition activation
occurred, the Status Light changes from flashing slowly to flashing two to four
times between pausing to indicate which protected zone was violated.
• The Zone Violation Code will continue to be displayed until the vehicle’s
ignition is turned on.
• The Status Light will display the Zone Violation Code in place of fast
flashes indicating Automatic Rearming.
• Should the system be rearmed before the ignition clears the Zone Violation
Code memory, the Status Light shows the normal slow flashing.
• The system can store up to two consecutive Zone Violation Codes. If more
activations occurred, the two most recent codes are displayed.
Echo Transceiver Activation Alert:
If the Echo transceiver has been used to Disarm the system, it will show a
flashing icon for the zone which caused the system to activate into the alarm
condition. Aslongasthesystemisdisarmed,theEchowilldisplaythisicon,until
the ignition is turned on. The Echo will store one Zone Violation Code.
Automatic Rearming Notes:
• Turning on the vehicle’s ignition cancels Automatic Rearming.
• Opening a door will suspend the 90 second countdown.
• All protected zones must remain non-violated during the 90 second Auto-

AUXILIARY OUTPUTS
The previous sections have described the basic everyday operations of your
Crime Guard system. The transmitter or Echo transceiver is also capable of
operating several other optional functions which are explained in this section.
Two auxiliary outputs are available for use (the primary output Arms and
Disarms the system). One output, the Auxiliary #2 output, is also capable of
Disarming the system; thus it is ideally suited for remote trunk release. Operat-
ing Auxiliary #2 will also unlock the doors and Disarm the system, should it be
armed. If desired, the unlocking of the doors and disarming of the system may
be programmed to not operate. The other output, Auxiliary #3 output cannot
affect the armed or disarmed status of the system, nor unlock the doors as part of
its operation.

* An optional doorlock
interface must be
installed. When
Auxiliary #2 is operated,
all of the doors will
unlock, even if the
vehicle is configured
with Driver’s Door

Auxiliary Output Notes:
• Auxiliary #2 output may be activated anytime, provided the vehicle’s igni-
tion is off. While the ignition is on, the Auxiliary #2 output can be operated
as long as a vehicle door is open; this prevents the output from being acciden-
tally activated while driving.
• If feature #6 is programmed to have the Auxiliary #2 output disarm the sys-
tem, the doors will unlock when it is activated; and there is an audible and
visual confirmation: 3 siren chirps and one light flash if the system also dis-
arms, and one chirp and light flash otherwise.
• Auxiliary #3 output may be activated at any time, regardless of the ignition
being on or off, and regardless of the security system’s status.
• Auxiliary #3 has no audible and/or visual confirmation.

Sensors:The Crime Guard 850i4e security system is equipped with a Glass
Breakage and Dual-Zone Infrasonic Impact Sensor to increase the effectiveness
of the system. The impact sensor is just one in a comprehensive line of available
sensors. Other available options are: piezo shock sensors, and microwave/radar
sensors which can detect objects in motion both inside and outside the vehicle.
• The Crime Guard 850i4e control module features dual auxiliary sensor ports,
which easily allows the addition of a further optional sensor.
• If desired, the sensor zone only can be bypassed when the system is armed
withthe transmitterorEcho transceiver,butleaving theotherprotection zones
in place. This feature is convenient when environmental factors, such as hail
or thunder storms, may lead to the system being activated erroneously.
Prewarning Detection Circuit: When the sensor’s prewarn zone is
violated the security system will respond by chirping the siren three times and
relocking all of the doors.* If the prewarn circuit is triggered five times while the
systemis armed,thecircuitwillautomaticallyshutdownuntilthesecuritysystem
is disarmed and armed again.
• Prewarning operates from the Infrasonic Impact Sensor only; the Glass
Breakage fully activates the system.
