“SMART TACHLESS”MODE
Your CoolStart systemincludesaunique voltage monitor called “SmartTachless”mode.Thismode allowsthisunitto
efficientlystart an engine withoutthe useofatachsignalwire.Thesemodulesactivelymonitor the voltage levelofthe
vehicletocontrolthe starter motor eachtimearemotestart isrequested.
IMPORTANTNOTES:
(1)SETUPmaybe required for the CoolStart“SmartTachless”Mode.Ifyour vehiclehasnotbeen atrestfor aperiod of
time(Hotengine),thenyou mustdrainthe surfacechargefromthe battery.Unplug mainpowerharnessfromunit,turn
HEADLIGHTSONfor 4minutestodrainoff excess surfacecharge on vehicle’sbatterythen reconnect.
(2)Onthe rare occasion that“SmartTachless”mode doesnotoperatesatisfactorily,change the voltage referencelevel
asdescribed below, or useadifferent mode suchas“Tach” mode, or “Timed Crank”mode.
“SMARTTACHLESS”ADJUSTMENT:
Inthe event“SmartTachless”over-cranksor under-cranksyour starter,the settingscan be changed.The purposeof
adjusting the “SmartTachless”Mode istoraiseor lower the voltage referencethresholdfromthe 93%defaultpoint.
Raisingor lowering this93%pointshouldincreaseordecreaseyour cranking timerespectively.Theadjustmentrangeis
from79%to100%inone percent increments. Followstepsbelowtoadjust the referencelevel.
1.Open hood (or ground Blue wire if no hood pinisinstalled)
2.Turn the keytothe ONposition (Pinkwire must be connected!)
3.Press programbutton 5times, after afewsecondsthe unit will flashthe lightsand/or honkhorn 5times.
4.Carefullypress the programbutton 21timestogettooption level21.You mustgetalightflashand/orhorn honkafter

(79%)or the top (100%)ofthe adjustmentrange.Ifyou losttrack,then justpress Button #3 toresetbackto93%and
beginraising or lower again.
6.Turn Ignition OFF, Closehood (or un-ground the Blue wire) and checkoperation.

TACH FINDER&USEFUL TIPS
TACH FINDERMODE:
ThisTachFinder mode can assistinlocating aTachsourcefor your installation.When following the steps,the unitwill
begintoflashthe parking lightsifyou havethe WHITE/REDwire connected toatachsource.Iflightsdo notflash,then
tryanother wire until you locateatachsignalthatwill causethe Parking lightstoflash.NOTE:Onsomevehicles
equipped withdaytimerunning lights,itmaybe difficulttosee anyflashing parking lights.Inthiscaseyour only
notification will be the slight “ticking” sound coming fromthe module’sflashing light relay.
TACH FINDERSTEPS:
1.Open hood (or ground Blue hood pinwire if no hood pinisinstalled)
2.Start Engine withthe key. (Pinkwire must be connected!)
3.Press the Programbutton for 2seconds
4.Lightswill beginflashing if the WHITE/REDwire isconnected toavalidtachsource. If not tryadifferent tachwire.
5.OnceTachislocated then turn off engine and closehood toabort (RemoveBlue wire fromground).
6.Nowfollowthe TachProgramming steps.
TACH FINDERTIP:ColdWeather/ High IdleSimulation:
The tachfinder mode can alsobe used tohelpdetermine howyour CoolStart systemmayoperateinacoldweather
situation. Onceyou haveavalidtachsourceprogrammed intoyour system, followtest stepsbelow.
1. Go back into the tachfinder mode.
2. Youshould have a consistent light flash(like directionalor emergency flashers).
3. Slowly raise the RPM levelonyour vehicle to simulate a “warm-up idle” that is higher thanthe normalidle level. If and
whenthe lights STOP flashing. Means that this is the point at whichthe tachsignalis out of range of the system.
4. We recommend that youbring the RPM levelup to between1000 and 1500 RPMs to simulate a cold morning idle.
5. If the lights stop flashing too quickly, thenwe recommend using another tachsource. This may help prevent the engine
from starting and stalling inthe morning or cold weather.

TACH PROGRAMMING&TACH SIGNALS
INTRODUCTION
Tachsignalswillvaryinlevelsand frequenciesdepending onmanyfactorsincluding the typeofvehicleand the sourceof
the signal.The signalsfromavehicle’sinjector wire and coil packwire can varygreatlyeven on the sameengine.The
tachsignalfroman engine can alsobe affected byother sourcessuchaselectronicnoisefromthe ignition or computer
modules.Recentimprovementshavebeenmade tothe circuitrytoallowthisCoolStartsystemtosenseawiderrangeof
tachsignalsthan previousmodels.
TACH MODE
The Tachmode providesreliableremotestarting performancethrough engine speed(RPM)sensing.When using Tach
ReferenceMode,theWHITE/REDwire isused forTachsignal[Engine RPM]input. Mostmodernenginesincludevarious
pointswherethe Engine Speed[Tach]or A/Csignalmaybe obtained.TachSignalexamples:Negative(-)sideofignition
coil,atthe Distributor or Ignition ControlModule,Coil Pack,Engine Computer,or Crankshaft Sensor.SometimesFuel
injectorsand Alternator stator pinscan be used.TheseTachSignallocationsmentioned are provided asaguide.Your
vehiclemaydiffer. Somelocationswill NOTbe agood location for Tachsourcedue toRFnoiseor Computer Data.
TACH PROGRAMMING:
1.Open hood (or ground Blue hood pinwire if no hood pinisinstalled.)
2.WHITE/REDwire shouldbe connected toavalidTachsource.
3.Start engine withkey. (Pinkwire must be connected!)
4.Press programbutton 5times, then wait for 5light flashesand/or 5horn honks.
5.Pushprogrambutton more once. (You must get one light flashand/or honkafter button ispressed.)Thisunit is
nowat option #1-TachLearning.
6.Press the #1 LockButton on remotetransmitter. The unit will read the Tachsourceand flashthe lightsand or
honkoncefor programconfirmation. (OnRS1300DPmodelswithout remotetransmitters, press the brakepedalin
thisstep.)
7.If lightsdo not flashfor confirmation, then tryanother tachsourceor trythe tachfinder tolocateanother wire
EXAMINING THETACH FREQUENCYWITHADIGITALMULTI-METER
If you ownaDigitalMulti-Metermeterwithafrequency countersetting,itcan be helpfultomeasureand researchthe range oftachsignal
fromyourparticularengine.When probing yourchosen tachwire,observethe frequency reading fromthe meterat boththe warm/low
engine idleand cold/high engine idlepoints.Tachsignalsranging between 70Hzand 700Hzaredesired.If yourtachwirehasreadings
thatarenotinthisrange,the unitmaynotoperateproperly.The frequency ofthe tachwireinthisrange doesnotguarantee operation.If
you cannotlocateagood tachsourcefromyourengine,then you can switchyourCoolStartsystemtothe “SmartTachless”or“Timed
Crank”.

18
TIMEDCRANK MODE
Thisfeatureprovidesan easymethod ofstartingthe vehiclewithoutlocating anexacttachwire.Thesystemusesatimed
cranking outputcombined withthe useofthe WHITE/REDtachwire asan engine ON/OFF monitor.The WHITE/RED
Tachwire muststill be used inthismode ofoperation.THISFEATUREMUSTBE PROGRAMMEDBEFOREUSE!
THEREARE2LEVELSofprogramming required:First, setthe systemfor “Timed Crank”operation,and secondlyyou
mayneed toadjustthe amountofcranking time.There are 4differentcranktimesavailablefor use.SEE OPTION
PROGRAMMING CHARTONPAGE20-27 FORSETTINGS.
HOWTO USE THISFEATURE:
1.Gotothe “ProgrammableOptions”section ofthismanual,and turn “ON”Option #15 "TimedCrank".(Itisnormallyon
TachMonitor)
2.With“Timed Crank”turned ON,you will STILL havetoconnectthe WHITE/REDTachwire toatachsourceon the
engine.The WHITE/REDTachwire becomesasimple“Engine Monitor”.Although the unitwill notbe using the
WHITE/REDwiretostartthe motor,itwill beusing thiswire todeterminewhether the motorisrunning or not. Thisisa
mandatoryconnection. A“crude” or “less exact”tachsourcecan be used onlywhen in“TimeCrank”mode.
3.Using the vehiclekey, start the engine afewtimestogeta“feel”ofhowlong the cranking timeis.Oncethe “Timed
Crank”modeisturned on,the defaultcrankingtimeissettoadefaultof0.50 seconds.Werecommendbeginningwith
thissetting. Tryaremotestart and see if the cranking isappropriatefor your vehicle
4.If0.50 secondsisnotan appropriatestarter cranking time,thengo toProgramming Option#18 and changethe crank
timesetting toalonger value. The valuesare asfollows: 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, and 1.5seconds.
WARNING:Thismethod ofstarting thevehicleisnotas reliableas using regular“Tach”orSmartTachless
modes.Thismethod shouldbeusedonlyintheeventthat atachwirecannotbelocatedusing thenormaltach
programming and tachfinder.Whenusing thismethod,theremaybecertainoperating anomalies requiring
seasonal adjustments. These are, butnotlimitedto:
•Starter mayunder-crankinextremecoldweather.Vehiclemaynotstarton 1st attemptand mayrequire a2nd or 3rd try.
•Inwarmweather when your vehiclemaystart veryquickly, “Timed Crank”mode maytend toover-crankthe starter.
•The onlywaystocorrect the aboveissuesare togo toOption #18 and adjust the cranking time.
•Whenin“Timed Crank”mode,the crankingtimecan onlybe adjustedmanuallythrough option #18.Whenthesystem
