The system uses a computer-based learn routine to learn the
transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any trans-
mitter button to any system function. The transmitter initially
comes programmed with Standard Configuration, but may also
be customized by an authorized dealer. The buttons in all of the
instructions in this manual correspond to a Standard
Configuration transmitter.

The buttons used in the instructions in this manual correspond
to the standard configuration. Remember, this is not the only
way your transmitter may be set up. It can be custom configured
to meet your needs.
active arming
You can activate, or arm, the system by pressing on your
transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear
a short siren sound, or chirp, and the parking lights will flash
once. If the vehicle’s power door locks have been connected to the
system, the doors will lock.
While the system is armed, the status LED will flash approximately
once per second, indicating that the system is actively protecting
your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming, and see the
status LED flashing in groups, refer to the
Diagnostics section of
this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification.
passive arming
The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically
(called passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive
arming, it will automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is
turned off and the system "sees" you leave the vehicle by opening
and closing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30-second
passive-arming countdown, the status LED will flash twice as fast
➜
➜

6© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved
as it does when the system is armed. The siren will chirp one
time 20 seconds after the last door has been closed. The system
is not actually armed at that point. The system arms and the
doors lock (if connected and programmed for passive locking) at
the 30 second mark, but the siren will not chirp. The early chirp
provides you with a 10-second warning prior to arming.
When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:
➤Light impacts will trigger the Warn Away®signal. When
triggered, the siren will chirp and the parking lights will flash
for a few seconds.
➤Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered
sequence is between 1-180 seconds of constant siren and
flashing parking lights.
➤If a door is opened, the system will immediately start
chirping the siren and flashing the parking lights. Three
seconds later, the siren output changes to a continuous blast.
This progressive response gives you time to disarm the sys-
tem with your transmitter if you inadvertently open the door
while the system is armed, while still providing an instant
response (even if the door is immediately closed).
note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a
switch-protected trunk or hood) is open, the system will
not passively arm (unless forced passive arming is pro-
grammed on). See Programming Options section of this
guide. Additionally, each time a protected entry is trig-
gered during the arming countdown, the 30-second
countdown starts over.

7
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved
➤Turning on the ignition key will trip the same two-stage
response as opening a door.
➤The optional starter kill prevents the vehicle’s starter from
cranking.
multi-level security arming (optional feature)
Multi-Level Security Arming allows you to select which of the
security system's inputs or sensors will be active and which will
be bypassed at the time that the system is armed. (See Table of
Zones section.) Pressing the arm button again within five seconds
of arming the security system will activate the Multi-Level
Security Arming feature. Each time the arm button is pressed
again, a different security level is selected. The different security
levels can be selected as follows:
➤➤Pressing the arm button one time: The siren chirps once. The
system is armed.
➤➤Pressing the arm button a second time within five seconds:
The siren chirps twice followed by a long chirp. Zone Two is
now bypassed.
➤➤Pressing the arm button a third time within five seconds: The
siren chirps three times followed by a long chirp. Zone Four
is now bypassed.
note: Multi-Level Security Arming is only available when
using an optional Radar Master transmitter that has been
configured with separate transmitter buttons for arming
and disarming.
➜

8© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved
➤➤Pressing the arm button a fourth time within five seconds:
The siren chirps four times followed by a long chirp. Zones
Two and Four are now bypassed.
➤➤Pressing the arm button a fifth time within five seconds: The
siren chirps five times followed by a long chirp. All input
zones, except the ignition, are now bypassed.
arming while driving
Your system can be armed while driving the vehicle. Simply press
on your transmitter for two seconds while the vehicle is
running or while the ignition is on. The siren will chirp once and
then once more to indicate that the ignition is on. The security
system will not respond to any input except the door triggers and the
Faultproof Starter Kill (if installed) will not be activated. The secu-
rity system will disarm automatically whenever the ignition is turned
off or the remote’s arm/disarm button is pressed. The siren will chirp
twice and the LED will stop flashing.
note: If programmed for the optional Vehicle Recovery
System (VRS®) feature, arming with the transmitter will
arm the VRS®feature. (See VRS®section of this guide.)
➜
note: Multi-Level Security Arming only applies to a sin-
gle arming cycle. Once the system is disarmed and then
re-armed, all the zones will be active again.

© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved
disarming
To disarm the system, press . You will hear two chirps,
and the parking lights will flash twice. If the power locks are
connected to the system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps
either four or five times when disarming, refer to the
Diagnostics
section of this guide. This is called Tamper Alert.
siren silencing
This system offers Siren Silencing. Siren Silencing is a feature
that makes it possible to silence and reset the system when it is
triggering without disarming the system. If the system is trig-
gered, and the siren has been sounding for longer than six
seconds, pressing on the transmitter will stop the trigger
and return the unit to the armed state. The system will not
disarm, but rather reset. This prevents you from disabling the
system should you wish to disarm it without visually checking
the vehicle. Pressing the disarm button again, after resetting the
system, will disarm the system. Pressing during the first
six seconds of the triggered sequence will disarm the system
immediately. The six second timer is provided for your conve-
nience, in case you accidentally trigger the system.
disarming without a transmitter
This feature allows you to disarm the security system without the
remote transmitter should it be lost, damaged, or disabled. In order
to disarm the system without a remote transmitter, you must have
➜

the vehicle’s ignition key and know where the Valet button is
located. Be sure to check with the installer for the location and the
number of presses of the Valet button required to disarm the
system.
To disarm the security system,
turn the ignition to the ON posi-
tion. Press the Valet button the
preset number of times (one to
five times) within 15 seconds.
After 5 seconds, the system will
now disarm. If the system does
not disarm, you may have waited
too long; turn the ignition off and on and try again.

important! The unit can be programmed to respond to
one to five pulses of the Valet button for the disarm func-
tion. Be sure to check with the installer for the desired
programming.

remote controlled chirp muting
To temporarily turn off the arm or disarm chirps, use Remote
Controlled Chirp Muting. Simply press on the trans-
mitter briefly before arming or disarming, and the confirmation
chirp(s) will be eliminated for that one operation only. If you
want the arm/disarm chirps turned off permanently, your dealer
can do this for you.
panic mode
If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract
attention by triggering the system with your transmitter. Just
press for two seconds, and you will enter Panic Mode.
The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for the
programmed siren duration. To stop Panic Mode at any time,
press on the remote transmitter again.
valet mode
You can prevent your security system from automatically arming
and triggering by using Valet Mode. This is very useful when
washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet Mode, the
security system will not arm, even with the remote transmitter,
➜
➜
note: The Warning Zone response to lighter impacts is
bypassed if the system is armed using Remote Controlled
Chirp Muting. This ensures that no chirps will be emit-
ted by the siren in an area you want chirp-free. The sys-
tem is still fully capable of triggering. Only the Warning
Zone response is bypassed.
➜

12 © 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved
but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.)
will continue to work normally.
To enter or exit Valet Mode:
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. Turn the ignition off.
3. Press and release the Valet
switch within 10 seconds.
The status LED will light solidly if you are entering Valet Mode,
and it will go out if you are exiting Valet Mode.
To enter or exit Valet Mode using the transmitter:
1. Open any vehicle door.
2. Press .
3. Press .
4. Press again.
The status LED will light solidly if you are entering Valet Mode,
and it will go out if you are exiting Valet Mode.
false alarm control technology (FACT)
Your system offers FACT, a feature that prevents annoying
repetitive trigger sequences due to a faulty sensor or environmen-
tal conditions such as thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc.
Here’s how it works: The alarm triggers three times. Each time,
the same sensor is triggering the alarm. The three triggers are
within 60 minutes of each other. FACT will interpret this
pattern of triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, FACT
➜
DRW-35

13
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved
ignores, or bypasses, that sensor (along with any other sensors
sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes.
If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the system while it is being
bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over. This ensures
that a sensor that continually triggers will remain bypassed.
Doors are covered by FACT differently: If the alarm is triggered
by an open door for three full cycles, the doors will be bypassed
until the trigger ceases.
FACT is programmable. See the Programming Options section
of this guide.
ddiiaaggnnoossttiiccss
The microprocessor at the heart of your security system is
constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors that are
connected to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and
prevents them from disabling the entire system. The micropro-
cessor will also record and report any triggers that occurred
note: Arming and disarming the system does not reset
this function! The only ways to reset a bypassed zone are
for it to not trigger for 60 minutes, or to turn on the igni-
tion. If testing your system, it is important to remember
that the FACT programming can cause zones to be
bypassed and appear to stop working. If five chirps are
heard when disarming, FACT has been engaged. If you
wish to clear the FACT memory, turn the ignition key on.

14 © 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved
during your absence. Refer to the System Status Chirps and
Table of Zones charts for diagnostic information.
arming diagnostics
If the system is armed while an input is active (door open, sensor
triggering, etc.) the unit will chirp once when arming and then
one more time a few seconds later. This is called Bypass
Notification.
The security system will ignore the input that was active when
the system was armed, until the input goes away. Three seconds
later the system will monitor that input normally. For example,
if your vehicle has interior light exit delay, and you arm the
system before the interior light goes out, you may hear Bypass
Notification chirps. Once the light shuts off, however, the doors
are monitored normally.
disarming diagnostics
Extra disarm chirps are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard
when disarming, the system was triggered in your absence. If five
chirps are heard, a zone was triggered so many times that
False Alarm Control Technology (FACT) has bypassed that zone.
In either case, the LED status indicator will indicate which zone

note: Bypass Notification will not occur when using
Remote Controlled Chirp Muting or if chirps have been
programmed OFF.

was involved (see Table of Zones section). The system will retain
this information in its memory, and continue to chirp four or
five times each time it is disarmed, until the next time the igni-
tion key is turned on.
system status chirps
The siren will chirp when arming/disarming the system. The
pattern of chirps will audibly report the system’s status as
described below.
Action Number of Chirps Description
Arm 1 System armed
Arm 1 (3 second delay), 1 System armed with
zone active
Disarm 2 System disarmed
Disarm 4 System disarmed with

table of zones
The zone number is the number of LED flashes used by the
system to identify that input. The standard input assignments
are listed below, along with spaces to write in any optional
sensors or switches you have had installed.
interpreting zone diagnostics
Warn Away responses are not reported by arming or disarming
diagnostics. If you receive a Bypass notification when arming or
a Tamper Alert notification when disarming, look at the LED.
Active or triggered zones will be indicated by a pattern of blinks
by the LED.
Example
If zone 3 was active or triggered, the LED will blink three times
with a two-second pause. Then it will blink three times again,
and repeat until the ignition is turned on.

The receiver and transmitters each use mathematical formulas
called algorithms to change their codes each time the transmitter
is used. This technology has been developed to increase the secu-
rity of the unit. The control unit knows what the next codes
should be. This helps to keep the transmitter "in sync" with the
control unit even if you use the remote control out of range of
the vehicle. However, if the transmitter has been pressed many
times out of range of the vehicle, or if the battery has been
removed, it may get out of sync with the control unit and fail to
operate the system. To re-sync the remote control simply press
of the transmitter several times within range of the
vehicle. The alarm will automatically re-sync and respond to the
transmitters normally.
note: Your system stores the last two triggered zones in
memory. If your system has been triggered but the LED
has been reset by turning on the ignition, your dealer can
still recall the last two zones that were triggered. Contact
your dealer for details.
