Introduction
This guide supports the installation of a DB3, which is an all-in-one door lock and override interface module in Remote Start Ready (RSR)
mode. RSR is a function that enables the DB3 to remote start the vehicle completely on its own. Consequently, there is no need for an
aftermarket or an OEM remote starter in order to start the vehicle from a distance.
This solution may offer up to four (4) configuration options to control your system (all sold separately):
• 3x OEM Lock Remote Start Activation: if applicable, refer to the “Vehicle function compatibilities” section.
• SmartStart Pro Compatible: SmartStart Pro is equipped with D2D, which means it can be connected to an interface module and used
in RSR mode without the use of a remote starter. See “Module programming” for more information.
• Digital RF Kit Compatible: This firmware supports D2D 2.0, which means Digital RF kits can be connected to the interface module and
used when in RSR mode (compatible with firmware version ending with .101 or higher only).
• XL202 & Analog RF Kit
Notes
• This module can only be flashed and configured using DirectLink at www.directechs.com.
• RSR mode is not compatible with vehicles equipped with a manual transmission.

Firmware notes
Driver Priority Unlock: If the vehicle is equipped, drivers' priority unlock must be configured via User Settings mode on the cluster:
• All Door Unlock - Set the Two Press Unlock setting to Off (must also set during module flashing)
• Driver Priority Unlock - Set the Two Press Unlock setting to On (must also set during module flashing)
TPMS light: The TPMS light will come on during runtime or idle mode, and will go out after vehicle takeover.
Remote Start Ready (RSR):
•RSR installations are not compatible with vehicles equipped with a manual transmission.
•Remote Start Ready (RSR) is a function that enables the interface module to remote start the vehicle completely on its own
Consequently, there is no need for an aftermarket or an OEM remote starter in order to start the vehicle from a distance.
•SmartStart is equipped with D2D, which means it can be connected to an interface module and used in
Remote Start Ready (RSR) mode without the use of a remote starter. See "Module programming" for more information.
Unless specified otherwise, all connectors are displayed from the wire side, with the exception of the OBDII diagnostic connector.
Refer to the "Vehicle connections" following the installation diagram.
Footnotes
[1] Hood pin: The installation of an aftermarket hood pin is only required on vehicles that are not equipped with a factory hood pin or if
not supported in data.
[2] PTS connections: Connection is optional. Connecting the PTS wires will result in a "Get it and Go" takeover procedure for the client.
If not connected, the client needs to push the PTS button for Takeover and Pit Stop mode.
Important! In the "Quick Reference Guide" section, you must check off the box that corresponds with the installation.
[3] Telematics: Connection only required when installing a SmartStart with telematics features.

and try again. If your installation does not require this connection, skip this step by pressing the
programming button 5 times.
Flashes red x 3 Bypass data not detected. Check the bypass line connection. If more than one wire is used, make sure they are not inverted. Ensure
the vehicle still operates correctly using the factory key.
Flashes red x 4 Bypass processing error. The bypass calculation failed. Reset the module and try again. If the condition persists, please contact
Technical Support.
Flashes red x 5 ISO 1 not detected.
The Yellow/Black wire did not detect the expected signal. Refer to “Installation (wiring diagrams &
vehicle wiring reference charts)” on page “Installation (wiring diagrams & vehicle wiring reference
charts)” to check the connections.

LED Description Troubleshooting
Flashes orange x 1 LOCK command received. If the bypass module fails to flash, it did not receive the signal. Commands can come from RF or D2D.
Flashes orange x 2 UNLOCK command received. If the bypass module fails to flash, it did not receive the signal. Commands can come from RF or D2D.
Flashes orange x 3 TRUNK command received. If the bypass module fails to flash, it did not receive the signal. Commands can come from RF or D2D.
Flashes orange x 4 AUX1 command received. If the bypass module fails to flash, it did not receive the signal. Commands can come from RF or D2D.
Flashes orange x 5 AUX2 command received. If the bypass module fails to flash, it did not receive the signal. Commands can come from RF or D2D.
Flashes orange x 6 AUX3 command received. If the bypass module fails to flash, it did not receive the signal. Commands can come from RF or D2D.
Shutdown Codes
LED Description Troubleshooting
Flashes green x 1 Takeover successful. Normal operation.
Flashes red x 1 Runsafe was not disabled. No UNLOCK command was received prior to opening the door, or the 45 second timer expired in
takeover mode.
Flashes red x 2 Brake was not detected. The brakes were not detected, which prevents the system from shutting down the vehicle.
Flashes red x 3 Smart key was not detected. The smart key was not detected, which prevents the system from shutting down the vehicle.

Quick Reference Guide (customer copy)
Get In and Go
Get In and Go is designed to provide users with easy takeover when entering their Push-to-Start
(PTS) equipped vehicle, once it has been remote started.
Typically, users would have to remote start their vehicle, then get inside and press the PTS button
to perform a takeover. There is therefore a physical action required to drive away. With Get In
and Go, you simply remote start the vehicle, unlock the doors, get in and go... All that's left to
do is put the gear in drive and drive off.
Pit stop/idle mode
1Stop the vehicle in a safe parking spot
and put the gear in Park (P).

Remote Start Ready (RSR)
Remote Start Ready (RSR) is a function that enables the interface module
to remote start the vehicle completely on its own. Consequently, there is
no need for an aftermarket or an OEM remote starter in order to start the
vehicle from a distance.
3x OEM Lock Remote Start Activation
This solution includes the option to remote start your vehicle by pressing the Lock button 3 times
consecutively. If your vehicle allows the OEM remote to remain active while the engine is
running, you may shut down your remote starter by pressing the Lock button 3 times once more.
Note: The range offered by OEM remotes is limited and typically requires you to be within
eyesight of the vehicle to control it.
List of available commands
Note that the information below is for many Viper, Clifford, Python, Avital, Automate, Autostart
and AstroStart models. Icons and commands may differ depending on the model and options
purchased. Refer to your authorized installation center for more specific information.
