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.

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.
Sending commands to your vehicle
Whether you want to remote start the engine, lock/unlock the doors or pop the trunk, there
are 3 possible ways you can send commands to your vehicle, using the:
• Factory remote.
• Aftermarket remote.
• Directed SmartStart application via your smartphone.
If applicable, you can also start the engine remotely by pressing the Lock button 3 times
quickly on your factory remote.

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.
