INSTALLATION CAUTIONS & WARNINGS
BEFORE BEGINNING, check all vehicle manufacturer cautions and warnings regarding electrical service (AIR BAGS,
ABS BRAKES, ENGINE COMPUTERS, BATTERY etc.).
WE RECOMMEND the use of a VOLT/OHM METER to test and verify wiring circuits. Test lights or illuminated probes
can cause damage to on-board computer or engine management systems.
DO NOT exceed maximum output ratings or damage may occur. Electrical current limits for this alarm are listed
where applicable on the system diagram (Pg. 16). If you are unsure about the current load, of a specific circuit on your
vehicle, measure the load first with an amp-meter before connecting.
WE RECOMMEND that the MAIN SYSTEM FUSE be REMOVED before jump starting, using a battery charger, or
changing the battery. A voltage surge or high boost condition could damage alarm circuits.
DO NOT ROUTE ANY WIRING THAT MAY BECOME ENTANGLED with brake, and gas pedals, steering column, or
any other moving parts in the vehicle.

CONTROL MODULE MOUNTING
DO NOT Mount the control unit in the engine compartment!
DO NOT Mount the control unit or wiring harness where they can become entangled with moving parts
such as brake/gas/clutch pedals, or the steering column!
The alarm control module should be mounted in a concealed location. The Placement of the module will
affect the distance from which the remote transmitter can control the unit. The antenna wire should be routed
away from any metal if possible. Do not alter the length of the antenna wire or route it with other wires. Do
not ground the antenna wire. Fasten the module to a bracket or wire harness using the cable ties provided.
Underdash Mounting: If you are locating the control unit underdash, mount it as high as possible, not easily
located by an intruder.
Driver’s Side Underdash mounting provides an easy location for wiring most of the system’s connections,
however this is a common location for an intruder to check for an alarm after breaking into the vehicle. The
left side of the vehicle may contain more metal and or wiring that will create interference and decrease the
operating range of the system.
Passenger Side underdash is a good location, however some extra wiring may be needed to extend wires
across from the driver’s side.
Under-seat / Center Console mounting is also a possibility, but NOT RECOMMENDED. The system’s
transmitter range will be reduced by the metal structures of the seat or center console and the unit may also
be exposed to moisture from spilled drinks etc. Moisture or water damage is not covered under the warranty
and will be subject to repair charges. Under seat or console mounting will create more difficulty if you need to
access the unit for service or want to add-on features or connections later. Use this location as a last resort.
COMPONENT MOUNTING
SIREN: Mount the siren under the hood to an inner fender-well, wheel-well, or other body surface with the open end
facing downward. Run the red siren wire through the firewall using a rubber grommet. Ground the black to the body
metal near the siren or you can use one of the siren’s mounting screws for a ground.
LED: Mount the red LED in a visible location on the dashboard or console.
Dual-Stage Shock Sensor: Mount shock sensor with wire ties to an under dash wire harness or fasten with screws to
firewall or side paneling. Use the adjustment screw to set the sensitivity of the sensor. One screw adjusts both levels.
Valet/Override/Program Button: Mount the Valet/Override/Program push-button in a hidden but accessible location.
It is REQUIRED for emergency disarm, programming, and valet mode.

WIRING
PIN 1: GRAY WIRE: INPUT SOURCE FOR REMOTE OUTPUT 1 RELAY
Connect to a +12 Volt or Chassis Ground source depending on the output required for PIN 2 Gray wire See Below.
PIN 2: GRAY WIRE: REMOTE OUTPUT 1 On-Board Relay (Optional)
Connect this wire to an AUX device or Function. This output will provide a momentary signal when button #3 is
pressed and held for more than one second. The (+/-) polarity of this output depends on the connection of PIN 1 Gray
wire above. This wire can be used to activate a Factory power trunk release or an optional accessory not included with
this system e.g. window roll up/down modules, remote start, scanner LED’s etc.
PIN 3: BLACK WIRE: INPUT SOURCE FOR DOME LIGHT ILLUMINATION RELAY
Connect to a +12 Volt source or Chassis Ground depending on the vehicles dome light circuit. (Required for PIN 4
Black/White wire. See Below.) The connection of this wire [+12V or Ground] must be the same as dome light circuit!
PIN 4: BLACK/WHITE WIRE: DOME LIGHT ILLUMINATION OUTPUT On-Board Relay (Optional)
Connect this wire to the vehicle’s dome light circuit (May also be connected at the same point as the Door Pin Switch
input). This output will turn on the vehicle’s dome light when the system is disarmed using the remote control. The +/-
polarity of this output depends on the connection of the PIN 3 Black wire.
PIN 5: RED WIRE: +12V POWER INPUT (15 Amp Fuse)
Connect to a +12 Volt source with the supplied fuse and fuse-holder. We recommend the Battery positive terminal.
PIN 6: BROWN WIRE: (+) SIREN OUTPUT (3 Amp Max.)
Connect to the RED wire coming from the siren in the engine compartment.
PIN 7: VIOLET WIRE: (+) DOOR TRIGGER INPUT
Connect to Positive type door switches that show +12 Volts when the door is open and Ground when the doors are
closed. Positive type door switches are found on many Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles.
PIN 8: BLACK WIRE: CHASSIS GROUND INPUT
This BLACK WIRE must be connected to the CHASSIS METAL of the VEHICLE. Scrape away any paint or debris to
ensure a good connection. Use a star washer to ensure a good ground connection. Keep the Ground wire short.
PIN 9: WHITE WIRE: +12V FLASHING PARKING LIGHT OUTPUT
Connect to switched parking light wire at back of light switch. If this is not possible, connect directly to one of the
parking lights at the front of the vehicle. European vehicles require separate right and left circuits. Use a dual relay or
2 diodes to separate the output signal.
PIN 10: GREEN WIRE: (-) DOOR TRIGGER INPUT
Connect to Negative type door switches that read ground when a door is opened and 12 volts when all doors are
closed or connect to the circuit that triggers the vehicle’s dome light.

WIRING
PIN 11: YELLOW WIRE: IGNITION SWITCHED “ON” +12 VOLTS INPUT
Connect to an Ignition Wire (or Fuse in the fuse box) that shows +12 Volts power when the key turned “On”, when the
car is “Cranking”, and when the car is running.
PIN 12: ORANGE WIRE: NEGATIVE ARMED OUTPUT (500mA Ground, Optional)
This wire becomes a (-) Ground output when system is armed. This output can be used for optional accessories such
as extra sensors, window roll up modules, voice modules, etc.
PIN 13: WHITE/RED WIRE: (-) AUX REMOTE OUTPUT 2 (Optional, may require a relay)
Connect to the activation circuit of a 2nd auxiliary device or accessory. If the circuit requires +12Volts, then a relay is
required. RELAY WIRING: Connect the White/Red wire to terminal 85 of a relay. Connect terminals 86 and 87 to +12
Volts constant power. Connect terminal 30 to the Positive activation circuit of the device or accessory.
PIN 14: BLUE WIRE: (-) HOOD/TRUNK TRIGGER INPUT
Input trigger for a grounding hood and/or trunk pin switches. Connect to a hood and/or trunk pin switch that reads
ground when open. If no existing switches or circuits are available, install new grounding pin switches if desired. To
avoid water leakage and failure resulting from rust, DO NOT mount pin switches in water pathways.
PIN 15: BROWN/WHITE WIRE: (-) HORN HONK / CHIRP OUTPUT (Optional, may require a relay)
Connect to the Negative Horn Trigger wire usually located near the steering column. If the Horn circuit requires
+12Volts, then a relay is required. RELAY WIRING: Connect the Brown/White wire to terminal 85 of a relay. Connect
terminals 86 and 87 to +12 Volts constant power. Connect terminal 30 to the Positive horn activation circuit.

OPTION PROGRAMMING
1. HORN CHIRPS / PULSES
This option controls the system’s Factory Vehicle Horn output. There are 3 selections: Button 1 (Lock) = Horn Pulse
only when alarm is tripped. Button 2 (Unlock) = Horn Chirps for Arm / Disarm and Pulse when tripped. Button 3
(Trunk) = Horn Chirps for Arm, Disarm, and Pre-warning protection while it still pulses when tripped.
2. PASSIVE ARMING / CHIRP COUNTDOWN
This option controls the Passive (Automatic) Arming feature. If ON, arming will occur 30 Seconds after the ignition is
turned off and the last door has been closed. The LED will begin flashing rapidly while counting down. If a door is
reopened, the system will wait (LED solid) for the door or zone to close before arming. The unit will chirp once and
flash the lights once. Doors will lock if passive locking is selected. Factory default setting is OFF. If Passive Chirp
countdown is selected, the System will produce a siren chirp every 2 seconds during countdown until the system arms.
3. PASSIVE LOCKS / CUSTOM OVERRRIDE (SEE CUSTOM OVERRIDE SECTION, NEXT PAGE)
PASSIVE LOCKS: This option controls whether the doors will lock when Passive Arming occurs. Note: May increase
the risk of locking keys in the vehicle. When selected ON the alarm will passively lock the doors when passive arming.
4. IGNITION-CONTROLLED LOCKS
This option controls whether the locks are controlled by Ignition. There are 3 selections: Button 1 (Lock) = Lock/Unlock
with vehicle Ignition. Button 2 (Unlock) = No ignition locks. Button 3 (Trunk) = Ignition lock only. Doors will not lock if
they are open to prevent locking the keys in.
5. 10/60 Sec. DOOR OPEN WARNING
This setting changes the delay time in which the alarm system begins to monitor the Door circuit. This option can
prevent the alarm from giving warning chirps on vehicles with a delayed dome light.
6. ACTIVE RE-ARMING
Active Re-arming allows the system to re-arm itself 30 seconds after disarmed with the transmitter if a door has not
been opened. This is handy if the vehicle is accidentally disarmed (via the Transmitter in your pocket) without you
knowing it. If Chirp Countdown selected the system will chirp every 2 seconds during the 30 second count down to
active re-arming.
7. DOUBLE UNLOCK PULSE
The unit will send 2 unlock pulses when the #2 Unlock button is pressed. This feature may be required for interfacing
this alarm with an existing Factory Keyless Entry or Alarm system in a vehicle. These systems are found on some
Nissan, VW, Toyota, and Lexus vehicles.
8. SILENT ARMING /DISARMING (CHIRP DEFEAT)
With this feature, the system can be programmed to Arm and Disarm without the siren chirp using the regular
Lock/Unlock Buttons. Flashing parking lights will be the only Arm/Disarm confirmation.
