Bitwriters with a date code of 6a or older require an IC
upgrade (p/n 998M). Some bitwriters with a date code
of 6B do not require the IC upgrade, refer to tech tip #
1112 for more information.
The Bitwriter® (p/n 998U)
requires chip version 2.7 or
newer to program this unit.

Learning the Tach (not needed with Virtual Tach)
To learn the tach signal:
1. Start the vehicle with the key.
2. Within 5 seconds, press and hold the Control button.
3. After 3 seconds the status LED on your Control Center lights constant when
the tach signal is learned.
4. Release the Control button.
Important: This unit can learn the tachometer with the analog input or through D2D
using an interface module. The unit confirms which source is used by flashing the
parking lights.
When programming tach learning with:
• Analog, the parking lights flash one time.
• D2D interface module, the parking lights flash twice.
If the tachometer input on the system is connected to the vehicle, the D2D tachometer
input is ignored.
Learning Virtual Tach (not needed with hardwire tach inputs)
To program Virtual Tach:
1. After the install is complete, remote start the engine. The programming op-
eration may require 3 cranks of the starter before the engine starts and runs.
Do not turn off the remote start if this happens, it is a normal programming
operation.
2. Once the engine begins running, let it run for at least 30 seconds.
3. Using the Remote, send the Remote start command to turn remote start off.
Virtual Tach is programmed.
To reset Virtual Tach, go into the Remote Pairing section of this guide and press/re-
lease the Control button 4 times for step #4, then press and hold the Control button
to reset Virtual Tach. Virtual Tach cannot be reset with the Bitwriter.
Note: Virtual Tach cannot be used in MTS Manual Transmission Mode. It is also not
recommended for diesel trucks.
Virtual Tach handles disengaging the starter motor during remote starting – it does
not address over-rev. If the customer wants to have the over-rev protection capability,
the tach wire must be connected.
Important: After successfully learning Virtual Tach, a small minority of ve-
hicle starters may over crank or under crank during remote start. The Bit-
writer can be used to fine tune the starter output time in 50mS increments to
compensate for such an occurrence.
Remote Start Shutdown/Startup Diagnostics
To perform shutdown diagnostics:
1. With the ignition Off, press and hold the Control button.
2. Turn the ignition On and then back Off while holding the Control button.
3. Release the Control button.
4. Press and release the Control button. The status LED flashes to report the last
shutdown for one minute or until the ignition is turned on, as shown in the
following table:
Status LED Flashes Shutdown Mode
1 flash Runtime expired
2 flashes Over-rev shutdown
3 flashes Low or no RPM
4 flashes Transmitter shutdown (or optional push button)
5 flashes (+) Brake shutdown
6 flashes (-) Hood shutdown
7 flashes Timer mode/Turbo mode/Manual mode error *
8 flashes Neutral safety shutdown
9 flashes Low battery (voltage mode)
11 flashes Wait-to-start input timed out
* Timer mode error: Ignition is on or shutdown input is active when activating
timer mode.
Turbo mode error: Turbo mode is programmed off, engine is not on or shut-
down input is active.
Manual mode error: MTS mode not enabled.
Startup Diagnostics: If the vehicle fails to activate the remote start, the remote start
module will flash the parking lights on the vehicle to notify you of what caused the
no-start situation.
Parking Light Flashes
5 flashes Brake wire is active
6 flashes Hood pin wire is active
7 flashes Manual transmission mode is enabled and not initialized.
8 flashes Neutral safety wire has no ground or the neutral safety switch is Off.
Remote Pairing
Prepare the vehicle system to be Paired with a new remote
1. Turn the key to the ON position.
2. Within 5 seconds press and release the Control button on the system’s Control
Center one time.
3. Within 5 seconds, press and hold the Control button on the Control Center.
The status LED will flash one time and the horn honks to confirm the vehicle is
ready for remote pairing.
4. Release the Control button and proceed below.
Note: If no remote pairing results, the system will exit after 60 seconds.
Prepare the new remote to be Paired with the system
Remote Pair matches your remote to the system. Make sure the remote is set for the
desired Car 1 (Default) or Car 2 operation for the system it will be paired with.
1. Press and hold the
AUX
button for 8 seconds.
2. Wait for the Transmit LED to light solid. Release the
AUX
button.
3. Press the
AUX
for 1 second. The transmit LED will blink 3 times.
4. Within 5 seconds, press the
AUX
button.
5. The vehicle horn will honk. You have now successfully learned the remote to the
vehicle remote start system.
6. Press the
AUX
button two times to exit learn routine on the remote. The transmit
LED will turn off and exit.
Note: Please see installation guide for pairing with the 1-way companion remote.

Required connection for manual transmission vehicles
Ground this wire for automatic transmission vehicles or connect to the park-
ing brake wire for manual transmission vehicles.
This optional input can be connected to the horn circuit (+ or -) in vehciles
with factory alarm.When this wire receives input for a minium of 5 seconds,
the system reports a trigger on the 2-way remote. This input is for 2-way
systems only.
Important: NEVER connect 200mA low current outputs directly to a motor or
high current device WITHOUT a relay.

Programming System Features
The System Features Learn Routine dictates how the unit operates. It is possible to
access and change most of the feature settings using the Control button.
1. Turn the ignition on, then off.
2. Select a Menu. Press and hold the Control button. The number of horn honks
and LED flashes indicates the menu number. 1 horn honk and LED flash
indicates menu 1, 2 horn honks and LED flashes - menu 2 and 3 horn honks
and LED flashes for menu 3.
3. When the desired menu horn honks are heard with LED flashes, release the
Control button.
4. Select a Feature. Press and release the Control button the number of times
corresponding to the feature you wish to change. Then press and hold one
more time to select the features.
5. Program the Feature. While holding the Control button, you can program the
feature using the remote control.
For features with only two options;
AUX
= option 1 while
AUX
= option 2.
For features with more than two options;
AUX
selects the options in ascending order,
while
AUX
selects them in descending order.
Note: Pressing
AUX
button resets the feature to the factory default.
Once a feature is programmed:
• Other features can be programmed within the same menu
• Another menu can be selected
• The learn routine can be exited if programming is complete
To access another feature in the same menu:
1. Press and release the Control button the number of times necessary to advance
from the feature you just programmed to the next one you want to program.
2. Then press the Control button once more and hold it.
To select another menu:
1. Press and hold the Control button.
2. After 3 seconds, the unit advances to the next menu and the horn honks and
the LED flashes, indicating which menu has been accessed.
The learn routine exits if any of the following occurs:
• The ignition is turned On
• There is no activity for 30 seconds
• The Control button is pressed too many times
