Programming Transmitters
Each system includes two pre-programmed transmitters. To program transmitters, such
as when adding a transmitter or changing the button assignment, follow this process:
Step 1- Turn "on" the ignition.
Step 2- Within 5 seconds of turning "on" the ignition, press the Valet Switch 5 times. The
sirenwill chirp,confirming thatfor thenext 10seconds thesystem isready tolearn
a transmitter code. When the first transmitter code is learned all existing stored
codes will be erased. To enter a transmitter code, simply press and release the
transmitter button which is desired to arm and disarm the system*.
Step 3- Repeat this procedure for each transmitter desired to operate the security system.
The system will chirp the siren once to confirm that each transmitter code was
learned. Bothoftheothertwo transmitter button's functions will automaticallybe
learned when the arm / disarm button is learned. If a code is not received within
a 10 second period, the learning process will automatically terminate.
* Other button operations may be used, as shown in this chart:

Installation Considerations
Mounting The Main Control Module: The Main Control Module contains the elec-
tronics necessary for the security system's operation. Always mount this module in the
vehicle's interior compartment, in a secure location that is not easily accessible. Ensure
that moisture, vibration and temperature extremes are minimized. Acceptable locations
may include mounting behind the dash, behind the glovebox or other interior panels.
Mounting The Siren: Find a location in the engine compartment away from the ex-
treme heat of the engine and manifold. A suitable location will offer a firm mounting
surface, will also allow sound dispersion out of the engine compartment, and not be acces-
sible to a thief. The siren must be pointed downward to avoid moisture collecting inside it
and to enhance sound dispersal.
Wiring Connections: The security system's wires should be securely connected to the
appropriate vehicle wires with the proper terminals, connectors, or by soldering and
insulating with quality vinyl electrical tape or heat shrink tubing. All wiring should be
carefully routed to avoid the possibility of chaffing or otherwise being damaged. Make all
required connections, then plug the harnesses into the control module.

Programming Features
Thissystemhas22programmablefeaturesthatcanbeprogrammedusingthevaletswitch
and transmitter. See the Owner's Manual for further Programmable Features information;
brief manual programming instructions are:
Step 1- Turn "off" the ignition.
Step 2- Within 5 seconds of turning "off" the ignition, press the Valet Switch 5 times. The
siren will chirp, followed by a short siren burst, confirming that for the next 10
seconds the system is ready to receive a feature number.
Step 3- Press the Valet Switch the number of times that is equal to the feature number.
Example: Press the Valet Switch six times if Feature #6 is to be changed.
Step 4- The siren will respond by chirping the same amount as the feature number.
Example: The siren responds with six chirps.
Step 5- Press the largetransmitterbuttontoturn the feature "on". Whendone,thesirenwill
respond with one chirp.
Step 6- Pressthesmall lefttransmitter buttontoturnthefeature"off".Whendone,the siren
will respond with two chirps.
Step 7- For each additional feature to be programmed, repeat steps 3-6.
If the Valet Switch is not pressed, or if a transmitter signal is not received within a 10
second period, the Programmable Features learning process will automatically terminate.

CONNECTION:Usingthecorrectsized crimp-on ringterminal,connectthe Black wire
to the metal frame of the vehicle, preferably using an existing machine-threaded fastener.
Make sure that the ring terminal attached to the Black wire has contact with bright, clean
metal. If necessary, scrape any paint, rust or grease away from the connection point until
the metal is bright and clean. If the control module has an insufficient ground connection,
the security system can find partial ground through the wires that are connected to other
circuits, but the alarm will not function correctly, giving the impression of a defective
control module. The alarm can partially work, so a bad ground wire connection would
be suspected. In some cases the alarm could arm and disarm properly but not function
correctly otherwise. When power and ground are first applied the alarm will trigger
instantly. The Black wire attached to the control module is the antenna wire. Do not
connectthiswiretoanything or thetransmitter'srangewillbereducedor eliminated.
Stretch the Black antenna wire out and as high as possible for the best operating range.

The Red wire's function is to supply Constant Positive 12 Volts for security system's
operation. When 12 Volts is first applied to the Red wire, the system will revert to state in
which it was in when power was taken away. If the vehicle to be serviced, especially if it
involves the battery, the system should be placed in Valet Mode. This will prevent the
system from being activated if the battery is disconnected and reconnected. The Red wire
also supplies 12 Volt Positive to the module's internal relay for flashing the parking lights.

wire or any other security system wire behind a fuse. Also, please note that connecting
directly to the battery's Positive terminal will expose this connection to failure due to a
corrosive environment unless the connection has a protective coating.

turning the ignition switch to the "start" position. The starter should not engage.
Connect the optional starter disable socket's Red wire to the ignition switch side, and its
White wire to the starter solenoid side. Be sure that good, solid electrical connections are
made as this generally is a high amperage circuit. Connect the security system's Orange
wire to the Orange wire of the starter disable socket. Note: If the Orange wire touches 12
volts positive directly or has more than a 500ma ground load, the circuit will be damaged.

HORN CONNECTION: The Brown wire may be connected to the vehicle's existing
horn wire, but a relay and diode must be used to switch the polarity to Negative. The horn

The Brown wire is a 1 Amp Positive output designed to operate the electronic siren for
audible confirmations, and also to sound if the alarm is triggered. An alternative to the
siren is to program the alarm to pulse this output to sound the vehicle's horn by adding a
relay and diode. This would require changing Programmable Feature #18 from the preset
steady output to a pulsed output.
SIREN CONNECTION: The Brown wire may be connected directly to the siren's Red
wire, and the siren's Black wire is connected to (-) Ground.
Mounting The Siren: Find a location in the engine compartment away from the extreme

pushed to "unlock". Since the security system's output polarity must be reversed from
negative ground to 12 volts positive, an optional doorlock interface must be used. Three
interfaces are available - the models DLP-P3, or the DLS with optional SPDT relays.
Model DLP-P3 - Three pin connector with a transistor converter network which changes
the security system's negative pulse doorlock outputs to positive pulses. Allows direct
connection of the security system's outputs directly to a vehicle with positive pulse
doorlocks. Overall length 20". Easier and more efficient than using relays for vehicles that
have positive pulse doorlock systems.

more than the 1 amp output that the Brown wire supplies. One alternative is to disconnect
the horns, then operate the horn switch. A clicking sound from the vehicle will confirm the
presence of a horn relay. Another alternative is to check a wiring schematic of the vehicle
in question.
Configuring An Optional Relay: The Brown Siren / Horn output wire has a 1 Amp
capacity, which, if exceeded, can damage the security system control module. In certain
situations, among them multiple optional sirens or utilizing the vehicle's horn, an optional
SPDT relay is required. When adding a relay, a protection circuit in the form of a 1 Amp
diode on the Brown Siren / Horn output wire is recommended.

3 Wire Negative Pulse Systems: This power doorlock system is indicated
by the presence of three wires at the switch. Of these, one will show constant ground,
regardless of whether the switch is being operated or not (at rest). Of the remaining two
wires, one will show ground when the switch is pushed to the "lock" position, and the other
wire will show ground when the switch is pushed to the "unlock" position. With the switch
atrest,thesetwowireswillreadvoltage,usually12volt positivebutin somecasesless. The
wires from the switches operate doorlock relays or a doorlock control unit with built-in
relays. The correct connection point is between the switches and the relays.
The included harness can allow direct connection between the security system and the
"lock" and "unlock" wires of the 3-Wire Negative Pulse system. Some doorlock systems,
however, require more than the 500ma ground output that the security system's control
module can accommodate. In these cases the optional model DLS and two relays must be
used. When driver's door unlock priority is desired, the correct interface is the optional
DLS-3 and three relays.

Power Doorlock Interface Port: The control module has a plug-in port for
anoptionaldoorlockinterface,allowingittooperatethevehicle'sexistingpowerdoorlocks.
The 3 pin port on the system's control module produces a negative pulse for locking the
doors (inside pin), a constant 12 volt pin for the optional relay coils only (center pin), and
a negative pulse for unlock (outside pin). The doorlock interface needed will depend upon
the type of power doorlocks the vehicle has.
CONNECTION: Quick Interconnect Harnesses are available for power doorlock
applications, and provide the necessary wiring connections; each has its own detailed,
illustrated instructions. If using a universal interface, of which several models are offered,
identify the type of doorlock system and obtain the correct interface. Connections, which
are shown in the following pages, should be with proper terminals, connectors, or by
soldering and insulating with quality vinyl electrical tape or heat shrink tubing. All wiring
should be carefully routed to avoid the possibility of chaffing or otherwise being damaged.
The vast majority of power doorlocks are found as three system types: 3 wire negative
pulse, 3 wire positive pulse and 5 wire reversal, rest at ground. Other power doorlock
systems which may be encountered are the vacuum pump types found in older Mercedes
vehicles and the single wire, dual-voltage which has appeared in some late model vehicles.
The best way to identify a doorlock system is to examine the doorlock switch's wiring.

ManyEuropeanimportshaveseparateleftandrightsideparkinglights. Whenleft&right
parking lights are on separate circuits, a pair of 6 to 10 amp diodes must be used to connect
the White wire to each parking light side. Note: Flashing the headlights is not recom-
mended. The halogen headlights found in modern vehicles are not designed to be rapidly
turned on and off. If connected to the security system, a reduction of their useful life may
be noticed. If flashing the headlights is still desired, a relay must be used, since the
headlight'scurrentdrawexceedsthe7ampratingofthebuilt-inrelay. Ifflashingheadlights
and parking lights are desired, use two relays - one relay will supply the parking lights and
the other relay will supply the headlights.
TheGreenwire'sfunction is anopendoorinput to thecontrolmodulefor vehicles having
Negative switching door pin switches. This circuit has effects on many security system
operations, the primary being the activation of the system (sounding the siren and flashing
the parking lights) if in an armed state. If the Last Door Arming and Automatic Rearming
features are utilized, after turning "off" the ignition switch and closing the door, the Last
Door Arming sequence will begin, and be suspended if a door is reopened. Opening a door
during Automatic Rearming will also suspend that feature. If the system has been
programmed to lock and unlock the doors with the ignition switch being turned "on" and

it should be noted that when arming the system with the transmitter, the user has the ability
to bypass the sensor, if desired. When bypassed, the system will not respond to either a

with the use of the optional Omega AU-EXP ExpandaSensTM module.
Optional Backup Battery Port: This port allows the plug-in addition of an optional
9 volt alkaline battery to provide alternative power source to operate the system if power to
the control module is disconnected (the battery, wiring harness and clip-on holder is
available separately). A built-in protection circuit will not allow the 9 volt battery to back

along with the following: Aux. output and Aux. Trigger input, Negative Instant Trigger
Input, Negative and Positive Door Trigger input, and the Remote Panic feature. Due to the
exact configuration of the security system in a particular vehicle, the operating parameters
of the system while on backup battery power will vary.

opened,andupto 12 voltswhenthedoors are closed. Note:Thecorrectwire will showthis
change when any of the doors are opened. If the vehicle has delay dome lights, remember
to take this into account when testing the wire. Note: If the car has a delay dome light the
Circuit Bypass feature will allow the system to be armed from the transmitter instantly and
will start protecting the Green wire circuit when the dome light turns off. In Last Door
Arming mode, the system arms 30 seconds after the delay dome light turns off. The
accompanying diagram illustrates a basic negative courtesy light system.
If the pin switch is mounted in the metal structure of the vehicle, and the dome light goes
out when the switch is removed, suspect a grounding-type dome light system. If the switch
is mounted in plastic, a constant ground wire will also be present. While the traditional pin
switchismounted inthefront doorjambarea, alsobeaware thatmanyvehicles utilizeother
types of switch devices to operate the interior lights. Some imports have a sliding type of
switch and many have the pin or sliding switches in the rear door jamb area. In addition,
some vehicles utilize switches in the doors, either connected to the exterior door handles or
tothelatchingmechanism.Acarthatfeaturesthedomelightsilluminatingwhentheexterior
door handle is lifted is an example of this type of switching system.
Also be aware of vehicles which diode-isolate each door. Typically, this is usually
encountered with dash displays that indicate individual doors being ajar. The proper wire
to connect to in this type of system is the common wire which is routed to the dome light
itself.

Negative Instant Trigger Input
Blue Wire
The Blue wire is a Negative instant trigger used primarily to detect entry into the hood or
trunk area of a vehicle. The function of this circuit is to activate the security system
(sounding the siren and flashing the exterior lights) if in an armed state. If the Last Door
ArmingandAutomaticRearmingfeaturesareutilized,afterturning"off"theignitionswitch
and closing the door, the Last Door Arming sequence will begin, provided the Blue wire is
notgrounded. IftheBlue wire becomesgroundedduringAutomatic Rearming, theprocess
will be interrupted. When the Last Door Arming feature is utilized, if the Blue wire is
grounded when the last door is closed, the Last Door Arming process will not start until the
Blue wire is ungrounded.

Diode-Isolating multiple negative instant triggers
CONNECTION: The included pin switches may be installed to provide this trigger
circuit Or, if there are existing switches (example: a light in the luggage compartment or a
"Trunk Ajar" light in the dash), the Blue wire may be connected directly, provided this is
a negative ground switching circuit. An indication of such a circuit is the wire having no
voltage present when the hood or trunk is open, and up to 12 volts when the hood or trunk
is closed. This circuit cannot be used with mercury switch types of hood or trunk lights. If
thevehicleisequippedwith a usable trunk or hoodcircuit,locatetheproper wire and splice
the Blue wire directly to the vehicle's wire.
Whenwiringmorethanone ofthevehicle's circuitsand/oradditional circuitstothiswire,
diode-isolation may be required to maintain each circuit's proper operation. An example
would be wiring a hood pin switch and trunk light switch together. Without isolating, the
trunk light will turn illuminate whenever the hood is raised. Also, diode-isolation is
necessary when combining electronic sensors together, or, in the same circuit with pin
switches.
