Introduction
DS3+ is a complete solution for remote start, security (when security features are enabled) and bypass. This guide provides
information on the installation of the module as a digital solution. Please refer to www.directechs.com for more information about
which configuration is best for your application.
Warning! This module can be configured using the web tool located at www.directechs.com. The DS3/DS3+ module is not
equipped with Bluetooth, therefore the blue LED will not flash during module programming or when performing a soft or hard reset.
DS4+ is a complete solution for remote start, security (when security features are enabled), bypass, and features
built in Bluetooth 4.0 allowing you to configure and control your system. This guide provides information on the
installation of the module as a digital solution. Please refer to the DirectLink application or www.directechs.com
for more information about which configuration is best for your application.
Warning! This module is designed to be configured using the DirectLink application for mobile devices,
however it can also be configured using the web tool located at www.directechs.com. To download the DirectLink mobile

Configuring the system
DS3+
Flashing the module using your computer:
1. Disconnect the main module from any (+) 12V power source, then connect it to your computer using the XKLoader2.
2. Go to www.directechs.com using Internet Explorer; the configuration wizard will be displayed automatically. Follow the
instructions in the pop-up window that will be displayed when the module is detected.
DS4+
Once the module is installed in the vehicle, follow the wiring diagram(s) related to your installation. Launch the DirectLink
application on your mobile device, and select Configure DS4/DS4+. Follow the on-screen instructions to configure the system.
Note: Your system can also be configured using XKLoader2 on www.directechs.com.
8556T Temperature Sensor
The 8556T Temperature Sensor is optional, but included with your DS3+/DS4+ module.
When used, the Temperature Sensor must be plugged into the 2-pin black connector of your module.
Note: When the system is configured as a remote starter, the temperature is reported by the 8556T
Temperature Sensor. When security features are enabled, it is reported by the 8504D Combo Sensor.
8504D Combo Sensor
The 8504D Combo Sensor is optional, but included with the purchase of a DS4SU security package.
The Combo Sensor is preset for the majority of applications; however, it can be adjusted using the DirectLink
application, as well as a compatible LED or LCD remote. Please refer to the instructions included with the DS4SU
for more information on how to make adjustments.
Note: When the system is configured as a remote starter, the temperature is reported by the 8556T Temperature
Sensor. When security features are enabled, it is reported by the 8504D Combo Sensor.
IMPORTANT: The Combo Sensor must be paired to the device before it can be used.
Pairing
To enter pairing:
1Open the driver side door.

RF Systems
An RF System consists of one or multiple remotes, a Control Center (antenna), and an antenna cable – various combinations exist.
An RF System allows the vehicle owner to control the system with enhanced range. Two-way models are available. Please follow
the instructions included with the kit for appropriate installation and programming information.
When used in conjunction with SmartStart
To enable D2D communication between the DS3+/DS4+ and the SmartStart one of the following actions must be performed
before providing power to the SmartStart unit:
• SmartStart with Loops – The brown loop must be cut.
• SmartStart with Pigtails – The gray wire must be connected to a ground source.
Loops Pigtails
DO NOT connect the SmartStart 2-pin power harness when using the DS3+/DS4+. Power and ground will be provided by
the D2D connector on the module. Refer to the SmartStart documentation for further details.
D2D port configuration
The system will automatically configure the D2D ports based on your selections in the module programming. The white D2D port is
reserved for SmartStart. To ensure proper functionality with SmartStart, it is important that it is selected in the system programming
of the DirectLink application or via the online web tool.
Note: Both black D2D ports are reserved for the Control Center (antenna) and 8504D Combo Sensor.

2. In addition, if no Clutch Output is pre-configured in the firmware, an output can be configured when flashing the module
under the Programmable Input/Output section. Use any available positive (+) or negative (-) outputs depending on the
polarity of the clutch switch listed on Directwire, set it to Starter.
3. Note: A Relay may be required depending on your vehicle.
See Tech Tips 10000 - Clutch Bypass for Remote Start - https://directechs.blob.core.windows.net/techtips/10000.pdf
4. Additional connections may be required if these functions are not supported by the firmware.
Connection Description
(-) E-Brake Status Input
(Black/White, pin 17)
Must be connected to a working emergency brake in the vehicle. Although most vehicles have simple
(-) trigger emergency brake circuits note some vehicles do not and may require unique integration
methodologies.
(-) Door Trigger Input
(Green, pin 20) OR
(+) Door Input (Violet, pin
13)
Must be connected to a working door trigger in the vehicle, which monitors all doors. The unit must monitor
the door pins to allow the Ready Mode process to be enabled.
Note: Some vehicles may require unique integration methodologies for this circuit. For more information, refer
to www.directechs.com.
(AC) Tachometer Input
(Violet/White, pin 22)
Must be connected to a working tachometer signal in the vehicle (fuel injector, ignition coil, true tach, etc.)
and learned successfully to the DS4+.

Module programming
Refer to “LED diagnostics and troubleshooting” for more information and for troubleshooting purposes.
(For security-only programming, see next section.)
1Please ensure that the vehicle is in a safe location, and cannot move forward during
programming. For vehicles equipped with a manual transmission, make sure the
gearshift lever is in the neutral position.

DS3+: Connect the 12-pin main power harness to the DS3+ module FIRST.
Wait until the LED turns ON solid red before proceeding to the next step.
DS4+: Connect the 12-pin main power harness to the DS4+ module FIRST.
The LED will turn ON solid Blue for 1 second to confirm Bluetooth communication.
Wait until the LED turns ON solid red before proceeding to the next step.

Connect the remaining harnesses to the module.
Note: To skip the transponder programming and use convenience features only, press
the programming button 5 times. Wait until the LED turns ON solid orange, then
proceed with step 4.
4
Press the Push-to-Start button once to turn ON ignition. The LED turns on solid green for
3 seconds then shuts OFF.
Note: If the bypass was skipped, the LED flashes orange, then turns ON solid orange
for 3 seconds before turning OFF.
5Press the PTS button once more to turn the ignition OFF, once the module is successfully
programmed.
6Pair remotes (if applicable). For information on how to pair a specific remote, please
refer to its corresponding owner documentation, which can be found inside the product
packaging of the complete system or on www.directechs.com.*

DATA Tach: Firmware using DATA Tach, the tachometer is preprogrammed for the
vehicle and no further action is required. For instructions on how to adjust tach or use
Virtual tach, refer to "Initialize Virtual Tach" (not needed with hardwired or data tach
applications).
Hardwire Tach: Firmware using the Violet/White Hardwire Tach input will require
programming. For instructions on how to program or adjust tach or use Virtual tach,
refer to "Initialize Virtual Tach" (not needed with hardwired or data tach applications).
