This guide describes in detail the connection of each wire. Also included are possible applications of each wire.
This system was designed with the ultimate in flexibility and security in mind. Many of the wires have more than
one possible function. Please read the instructions carefully to ensure a thorough understanding of this system
and how it operates.
H1/1 ORANGE (-) GROUND-WHEN-ARMED OUTPUT
This wire supplies a (-) ground as long as the system is armed. This output ceases as soon as the system is
disarmed. The orange wire is pre-wired to control the P/N 8618 starter kill relay. It can supply up to 500 mA of
current.
NOTE: If connecting the orange wire to control another module, such as a P/N 529T or P/N 530T
window module, a 1 amp diode (type 1N4004) will be required. (See the following diagram.)

IMPORTANT! Never interrupt any wire other than the starter wire.
H1/2 WHITE (+/-) SELECTABLE LIGHT FLASH OUTPUT
As shipped, this wire should be connected to the (+) parking light wire. If the light flash polarity jumper under
the sliding door is moved to the opposite position (see Internal Programming Jumpers section of this guide), this
wire supplies a (-) 200 mA output. This is suitable for driving (-) light control wires in vehicles such as Toyota,
Lexus, BMW, some Mitsubishi, some Mazda, and other model cars.
(+) LIGHT FLASH OUTPUT
(-) LIGHT FLASH OUTPUT
H1/3 WHITE/BLUE (-) 200 mA CHANNEL 3 PROGRAMMABLE OUTPUT
This wire provides a 200 mA (-) output whenever the transmitter button(s) controlling Channel 3 is pressed. This
output can be programmed to provide the following types of output (also see System Features Learn Routine
section of this guide):

© 2001 Directed Electronics, Inc. Vista, CA 5
■A validity output will send a signal as long as the transmission is received.
■A latched output will send a signal continuously when Channel 3 is pressed and will continue until Channel
3 is pressed again.
■Alatched/reset with ignition output functions similarly to the latched output, but will also reset (output
will stop) when the ignition is turned on and then off.
■A 30-second timed output will send a signal for 30 seconds when Channel 3 is pressed. This output can be
shut off during the 30-second period by pressing the Channel 3 transmitter button(s) again.
IMPORTANT! Never use this wire to drive anything but a relay or a low-current input! This
transistorized output can only supply 200 mA, and connecting directly to a solenoid, motor, or other
high-current device will cause the module to fail.
H1/4 BLACK/WHITE HIGH CURRENT OUTPUT FROM ON-BOARD DOMELIGHT SUPERVISION RELAY
Connect this wire directly to the domelight circuit in the vehicle. The on-board relay will drive circuits up to 20
amperes. The polarity of this output is determined by the connection of the input wire (H2/B) in the Door Lock
Harness.
NOTE: If the input wire (H2/B) is not connected, there will be no output on this wire.
H1/5 GREEN (-) DOOR TRIGGER INPUT, ZONE 3
Most vehicles use negative door trigger circuits. Connect the green wire to a wire showing ground when any door
is opened. In vehicles with factory delays on the domelight circuit, there is usually a wire unaffected by the delay
circuitry. This wire will report Zone 3.
H1/6 BLUE (-) INSTANT TRIGGER, ZONE 1
This input will respond to a negative input with an instant trigger. It is ideal for hood and trunk pins and will
report on Zone 1. It can also be used with 506T Glass Breakage Sensor, as well as other DEI single stage sensors.
The H1/6 BLUE instant trigger wire can be used to shunt sensors during operation, using the auxiliary channels.
When any of the auxiliary channels are transmitted, the H1/6 BLUE wire monitors for a ground. If a ground is
detected within 5 seconds of transmission, the sensors and the instant trigger input on the BLUE wire will be
shunted until 5 seconds after the ground is removed. This allows the customer to access the trunk, remote start
the vehicle or roll the windows down without first disarming the alarm. (See Bypassing Sensor Inputs section of
this guide.)

H1/7 VIOLET (+) DOOR TRIGGER INPUT, ZONE 3
This type of domelight circuit is used in many Ford vehicles. Connect the violet wire to a wire that shows (+)12V
when any door is opened, and ground when the door is closed. This wire will report Zone 3.
H1/8 BLACK (-) CHASSIS GROUND INPUT
Remove any paint and connect this wire to bare metal, preferably with a factory bolt rather than your own screw.
(Screws tend to either strip or loosen with time.) We recommend grounding all your components, including the
siren, to the same point in the vehicle.
H1/9 YELLOW (+) SWITCHED IGNITION INPUT, ZONE 8
Connect this wire to the (+)12V ignition wire. This wire is pre-wired to the starter kill relay and must show (+)12V
with the key in the run position and during cranking. Take great care that this wire cannot be shorted to the
chassis at any point. This wire will report Zone 8.

H1/10 BROWN (+) SIREN OUTPUT
Connect this to the red wire of the Revenger siren. Connect the black wire of the siren to (-) chassis ground,
preferably at the same point you connect the control module’s black ground wire.
H1/11 RED (+)12V CONSTANT POWER INPUT
Before connecting this wire, remove the supplied fuse. Connect to the positive battery terminal or to the con-
stant 12V supply to the ignition switch.
NOTE: Always use a fuse within 12 inches of the point you obtain (+)12V. Do not use the 15 amp
fuse in the harness for this purpose. This fuse protects the module itself.
H1/12 RED/WHITE HIGH CURRENT OUTPUT FROM ON-BOARD CHANNEL 2 RELAY
Whenever the button(s) controlling Channel 2 is pressed for 1.5 seconds, the on-board relay is activated and will
stay active as long as the transmission continues. This relay is often used for trunk release. The relay can drive
circuits up to 20 amperes. The polarity of this output is determined by the connection of the input wire (H2/A)
on the Door Lock Harness.
NOTE: If the input wire (H2/A) is not connected, there will be no output from the relay when it is
activated.

*NOTE: VIOLET and VIOLET/BLACK are common at fuse holder.
H2/A RED/WHITE INPUT TO ON-BOARD CHANNEL 2 (TRUNK RELEASE) RELAY
This wire is used to supply voltage to the H1/12 output. If you want a positive output on the H1/12 wire,
connect this wire to (+)12V. Always fuse appropriately. If a negative output is desired, connect the H2/A
red/white wire to chassis ground.
H2/B BLACK/WHITE INPUT TO DOMELIGHT SUPERVISION RELAY
This wire determines what the output polarity of the H1/4 wire will be. If the door pin circuit is negative, connect
to chassis ground. If the doorpin circuit is positive, connect to a fused 12V source.
H2/C, H2/D, H2/E, H2/F, H2/G, AND H2/H POWER DOOR LOCK WIRES
This security system has door lock relays on-board the control module, and can directly interface with most
electric power door lock systems drawing 30 amps or less. It can also drive aftermarket actuators directly.
Some vehicles require that an aftermarket actuator be added to the driver’s door to allow system control. (See
Type D wiring.)

wiring the door lock system
The easiest way to determine which type of door lock system you are working with is to remove the master locking
switch itself, which is usually on the driver’s door or on the center console. Once you have determined which type
of factory door lock circuit you are working with, and the color codes of the switch wires to be used, you can
usually simplify the installation by locating the same wires in the vehicle’s kick panel. If no central locking switch
is found, the installation may require a door lock actuator.
NOTE: Always retest the wires in the kick panel to be sure they work the same as the wires on the switch.
There are eight common types of door lock circuits:
TYPE A: 3-WIRE (+) PULSE CONTROLLING FACTORY LOCK RELAYS
Most GM, some Ford and Chrysler, 1995 and newer Saturns, some new VW, newer BMW.
TYPE B: 3-WIRE (-) PULSE CONTROLLING FACTORY LOCK RELAYS
Most Asian vehicles, early Saturn, some BMW and Porsche.
TYPE C: DIRECTLY-WIRED REVERSING-POLARITY SWITCHES
The switches are wired directly to the motors. This type of system has no factory relays. Most Fords, many GM
two-doors cars and trucks, many Chryslers.
TYPE D: ADDING ONE OR MORE AFTER-MARKET ACTUATORS
These include slave systems without an actuator in the driver’s door, but with factory actuators in all the other
doors. Type D also includes vehicles without power locks, which are having actuators added. All Saabs before
1994, most Volvo (except 850i), most Subaru, most Isuzu, and many Mazdas. Some mid-eighties Nissans, pre-1985
Mercedes-Benz and Audi.
TYPE E: ELECTRICALLY ACTIVATED VACUUM SYSTEMS
The vehicle must have a vacuum actuator in each door. Make sure that locking the doors from the driver's or pas-
senger side using the key activates all the actuators in the vehicle. This requires a slight modification to the door
lock harness. Mercedes-Benz and Audi 1985 and newer.
TYPE F: ONE-WIRE SYSTEM - CUT TO LOCK, GROUND TO UNLOCK
This system is found in the late-model Nissan Sentra, some Nissan 240SX, and Nissan 300ZX 1992 and later. It is
also found in older Mitsubishis, and some early Mazda MPV’s.

TYPE G: (+) MULTIPLEX SYSTEM
This system is most commonly found in Ford, Mazda, Chrysler and GM vehicles. The door lock switch or door key
cylinder may contain either one or two resistors.
TYPE H: (-) MULTIPLEX SYSTEM
The system is most commonly found in Ford, Mazda, Chrysler and GM vehicles. The door lock switch or door key
cylinder may contain either one or two resistors.
■Three-wire switches will have either a constant ground input or a constant (+)12V input, along with the
pulsed lock and unlock outputs to the factory relays.
■Many BMW’s and VW’s have no external switch. The switches are inside the actuator, and instead of pulsing,
the proper wires will switch back and forth from (+)12V to (-) ground as the door locks are operated.
■Direct-wired switches will have a (+) 12V constant input and one or two (-) ground inputs, along with two
output leads going directly to the lock motors.
IMPORTANT! The H2/A and H2/B wires are not required for wiring the door locks. For detailed
wiring instructions for these two wires, refer to the beginning of the Door Lock Harness (H2) Wire
Connection Guide section. Depending on the type of door lock system, there may be additional H2
harness wires that are not used for wiring the door locks.
