ence and, (2) This device must accept any interference that may be
received,includinginterferencethatmaycauseundesiredoperation.

Installation
Mounting The Main Control Module: The Main Control Module contains the
electronics 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 glove box or other interior panels.
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.
Page - 4
Black Wire - (Ground input): The Black wire's function is to supply Negative
chassis ground for the security system's operation.
CONNECTION: Using the correctly sized crimp-on ring terminal, connect the 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.
Note: If the control module has an insufficient ground connection, the security system can

To perform a Total System Reset, follow these steps:
1) Locate the small round hole in the lower control module case. Two solder dots will
be visible beneath this hole.
2) Short the two solder dots together. A slotted jeweler's screwdriver works well.
3) Shorting the solder dots for 5 seconds will result in two siren bursts. All 23
Programmable Features are now returned to the factory-set default positions.
The 23 Programmable Features and their factory-set default positions are:
1) Ignition Activated Anti-Carjack Feature: Default OFF.
2) Add Door Activation To The Anti-Carjack Feature: Default OFF.
3) Last Door Arming And 90 Second Automatic Rearming: Default ON.
4) Doors Lock With Last Door Arming: Default ON.
5) Current Sensing (Also See Feature #22): Default ON.
6) Doors Lock With Ignition "On": Default ON.
7) Ignition "Off" Door Unlock #1: Default ON.
8) Ignition "Off" Door Unlock #2: Default ON.
9) Open Door Bypass For Previous Three Features: Default ON.
10) Lights On 5 Or 30 Seconds Upon Disarm: Default 30 Seconds (OFF).
11) Active Arm/Disarm Automatic Rearming Door Override: Default ON.
12) Remote Trunk Release Disarms The System: Default ON.
13) Doorlock Pulse Time 3 Or .8 Second: Default .8 second (ON).

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.
Note: When power or ground is first applied the alarm will trigger "on" instantly.
Note: The Black wire attached to the control module is the antenna wire. Do not
connect this wire to anything or the transmitter's range will be reduced or eliminated.
Stretch the Black antenna wire out and as high as possible for the best operating range.
Red Wire - (Positive 12 Volt Input): 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 activate, sounding the siren, flashing the lights and locking
the doors (if equipped with an optional doorlock interface). Note: In Valet Mode with the
ignitionswitch "on", this function willnot work, allowing vehicle to be serviced without the
system being activated if the battery is disconnected and reconnected. The Red wire also
supplies 12 Volt Positive to the built-in relay for flashing the parking lights.
CONNECTION:ConnecttheRed wire toaConstant Positive 12 Voltsource. Thissource
should have Positive 12 Volt, 15 Amp at all times and in all ignition key positions.
Connectionlocations can be at thesupply wire at the ignition switch, the supply wirebehind
thefuse block orthe fuse/junction block. Neverjustinsert theRed wire orany other security
systemwirebehindafuse. Also,pleasenotethat connecting directly to the battery'sPositive
terminal will expose this connection to failure due to a corrosive environment.

Programmable Features - Total System Reset
Please See The Owner's Manual For Changing Programmable Features And
Programming Transmitters.
This security system has 23 features that can be programmed through the Features
Programming Mode. Changing individual features is explained in detail in the Owner's
Manual. However, a Total System Reset feature allows the installer, if needed, to quickly
return all 23 features to the factory-set default positions.

Yellow Wire - (Ignition 12 Volt Positive Input):The Yellow wire is an igni-
tion "on" input to the security system. This connection is critical to the proper operation of
many of the security system's features.
CONNECTION:This wiresupplies Positive 12 Volts to the control module wheneverthe
ignition switch is "on". This connection should be made at the ignition switch harness, to
the primary ignition circuit. Primary ignition has 0 Volts when the ignition key is in the
"Lock", "Off" and "Accessory" positions; and Positive 12 Volts in the "Run" and "Start"
positions. Locate the correct wire at the ignition switch harness and securely splice the
Yellow wire to it.
Orange Wire - (Negative Output While Armed): The Orange wire is for an
optional starter disable socket and relay. The function of this wire is to provide a Constant
500ma Ground Output whenever the security system is in an armed state. This output
supplies Negative Ground to one side of the relay's coil. The other side of the relay coil will
be supplied with Positive Voltage from the ignition switch, but only if the ignition switch
is turned to the "start" position. If this occurs, the coil will energize, activating the relay,
which in turn will open the starter circuit. The starter interrupt prevents the vehicle from
starting only if the alarm is armed (including while the alarm is activated), and will draw
current from the vehicle's electrical system only if an attempt is made to start the vehicle.
CONNECTION: To interrupt the vehicle's starter circuit, the starter wire must be located
and cut. It is recommended that this connection be done as close to the ignition switch as
possible. Use a voltmeter, not a test light, to find the correct wire, which is the wire from

will read Positive 12 Volts only when ignition key is in "start" position (cranking the
engine). Cut this wire at a suitable location. Confirm that this is the correct wire by
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.
Gray Wire - (Negative Trunk Release Output): The function of the Gray
wire is to provide an optional output, the primary use being trunk release. Press and hold
the transmitter's small button for two seconds to activate this output. When activated the
horn will honk (or the siren will chirp) twice and the Gray wire will provide a 250mA
Negative Ground pulse for 1 second; or, stay grounded for as long as the small transmitter
button is depressed, for up to 15 seconds.
Also, the security system will automatically disarm, unlock the doors and illuminate the
exterior lights on for 30 seconds (unless a door is opened or the ignition switch is turned
"on"). Note: The trunk release feature can be operated anytime with the ignition switch
"off", or, it may also be operated while ignition key is "on" provided a door is open at the
same time. This prevents the trunk or rear hatch from being opened from the transmitter
while driving. Unless the vehicle's trunk release switch negatively triggers a release relay
which draws no more than 250mA, an optional relay must be used. Connect the Gray wire

Wiring Connections - 7 Wire Connector
Brown Wire - (Negative Siren/Horn Output): The Brown wire is a 1 Amp
Negative output designed to operate an electronic siren or the vehicle's existing horn relay,
which in turn will sound the horn for audible confirmations, and also to sound the horn
intermittently if the alarm is triggered. The alarm is already programmed to have a steady
output to operate the electronic siren.
Sounding the vehicle's horn instead of the electronic siren would require changing Pro-
grammable Feature #18 from the preset steady output to a pulsed output to properly sound
the horn.
SIREN CONNECTION: After mounting the siren, route its Red and Black wires to the
alarm control module. The Brown wire may be connected directly to the siren's Black wire,
and the siren's Red wire is connected to the Siren (+) Supply terminal on the module.
MountingThe Siren: Find a location in the engine compartment away from the extreme
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 accessible to a thief.
The siren must be pointed downward to avoid moisture collecting inside it and to enhance
sound dispersal.
HORN CONNECTION: The Brown wire may be connected directly to the vehicle's
existing horn switch wire, which is typically found at the steering column. The correct wire
will show Positive 12 Volts normally, and no voltage when the horn is honked. Direct
connection of the Brown wire is to an existing horn switch-to-relay wire only. Once the

vehicle's horn wire is identified, probe the wire with a standard test light connected to
Negative chassis ground. If the horn honks when probed, a direct connection may be made.
If not, use the following diagram to configure an optional relay. CAUTION! This is one
of the few uses left for a standard test light in a modern vehicle! Use a digital multimeter
(DMM)toidentifythehornwirefirst. ProbinganAirbagcircuitwithastandardtestlight
can cause the Airbag to deploy! 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. Certain
situations, among them multiple sirens or a vehicle which lacks a horn relay, an optional
SPDT relay is required. Page - 11Page - 34

White Wire - Positive Flashing Light Output: This is a Positive 12 Volt out-
put for exterior flashing light confirmation and to attract attention to the vehicle if the
security system is activated. Also, upon disarming, this circuit will stay on for 30 seconds
to confirm disarming and to illuminate the way to the vehicle. This feature gives added
security when approaching the vehicle at night.
CONNECTION: Connect this wire to the vehicle's Positive 12 Volt parking light circuit.

from the headlight switch. These cars can still be connected directly to the White wire by
finding the parking light circuit after the relay, usually at the Fuse/Junction Block.
The correct wire will show Positive 12 Volts when the headlight switch is in the "Parking
Light" and "Head Light" positions. When such a wire is located, be sure to also test that it
is non-rheostated: while metering the wire, operate the dash light dimmer control. The
correct wire will show no change in voltage when the dimmer is operated. Note: Do not
attempt to flash the parking lights by connecting the White wire to a rheostated (dimmer)
circuit! This will backfeed the parking lights through the rheostat or illumination control
module, and possibly cause damage to the vehicle or alarm control unit. Also, if the White
wiretouches chassisground, the Printed Circuit Board and on-board relay maybe damaged.

5 Wire Reversal Rest At Ground Systems: This power doorlock system differs
from the negative and positive pulse systems in the fact that there are no relays or doorlock
control unit. In this type of system, the switches themselves supply the positive voltage
directly to the doorlock actuators, and, more importantly, provide the return ground path.
ThecorrectdoorlockinterfaceforthistypeofsystemistheoptionalDLSand2SPDTrelays.
Theimportantthing to remember isthat the wires inthissystem restatground,which means
that the wires must be "opened", or cut, to make the connections.
Examine the wires on the back of the switch. Normally 5 wires will be found. Of the
wires, one will be constant 12 volt positive, regardless of the switch's position. Two wires
will be grounded regardless of the switch's position. Of the two remaining wires, one will
show 12 volt positive when the switch is pushed to "lock", and the other will show 12 volt
positivewhen the switch is pushed to "unlock". When the correct wires are found, they must
be cut. Notice in the diagram that the driver's switch is the primary switch and referred to
asthe"switch"wires. Thewiresthatgotothesecondaryswitcharereferredtoasthe"motor"
wires. Even though the cut is made between the switches, the two sides are still correctly
called the "switch" and the "motor" sides.

ManyEuropeanimportshave separate left andrightsideparking lights. When left &right
parking lights are on separate circuits, the Black/White Domelight Illumination circuit
(Page 20), or 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 recommended. 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
theheadlightsisstilldesired,arelay mustbeused,sincetheheadlight'scurrentdrawexceeds
the 7 amp rating of the built-in relay. If flashing headlights and parking lights are desired,
use two relays - one relay will supply the parking lights and the other relay will supply the
headlights.
Green Wire - (Negative Door Trigger): The Green wire's function is an open
door input to the control module for vehicles having Negative switching door pin switches.
Thiscircuit has effects on many security systemoperations, theprimary beingthe activation
of the system (sounding the siren and flashing the exterior and interior 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. Note: Last Door Arming and Automatic Rearming are related
automatic arming features. Utilizing the Last Door Arming feature automatically turns on
the Automatic Rearming feature.

Opening a door while the exterior lights are on after disarming the security system will
cause the exterior lights to turn off 10 seconds after the opening of the door. If the system
has been programmed to lock and unlock the doors with the ignition switch being turned
"on" and "off", an open door bypass of this feature may also be programmed. If a door is
opened while the ignition switch is "on", the trunk release via the transmitter will operate.

will have no voltage present and will also show chassis ground when the doors are opened,
and up to 12 volts when the doors are closed. Note: The correct wire will show this 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
Bypassfeature 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 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
switch is mounted in the front door jamb area, also be aware that many vehicles utilize other
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
to the latching mechanism. A car that features the dome lights illuminating when the
exterior 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 identify a doorlock system is to examine the doorlock switch's wiring. The following
sections will discuss the types of doorlock systems found and the available optional
interfaces.
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
groundwhen the switch is pushed to the "unlock" position. With the switch at rest, these two
wires will read voltage, usually 12 volt positive but in some cases less. 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.
An optional harness is available (model DLP-N3) which allows direct connection
between the security system and the doorlocks. 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 DLS-3 (Pages 36-39).
Green Wire To Vehicle Lock Wire
Blue Wire To Vehicle Unlock Wire Model DLP-N3 -Three pin connector with two
24" wires. Allows direct connection of the security
system's negative pulse outputs directly to a vehicle's
negative pulse doorlocks or to facilitate custom hard-
wiringofoptional relays.

BlueWire-NegativeInstantTrigger: TheBluewireisaNegativeinstanttrigger
used primarily to detect entry into the hood or trunk area of a vehicle. The primary function
of this circuit is to activate the security system (sounding the siren and flashing the exterior
and interior 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, provided the Blue wire is not grounded. If the Blue wire
is grounded during Automatic Rearming, the process 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.

Plug-In Power Doorlock Interface Port: The security system features a plug-
in port for an optional doorlock interface. The 4 pin port on the system's control module
produces a negative pulse for locking the doors, a constant 12 volt pin for the optional relay
coils only, a first negative pulse for driver door unlock, and a second negative pulse for
unlocking all other doors.
Thedoorlock interface needed will depend upon the type of power doorlocks the vehicle
has. Note: The vehicle must have existing power doorlocks. The addition of a power
doorlock interface to a vehicle with non-power locks will not allow the security system to
operate the doorlocks. However, power doorlocks may be added to the vehicle in the form
of adding a model DS-2 Electric Door Lock Actuator to each of the doors. This will allow
the security system only to operate the doorlocks.
The vast majority of power doorlocks are found as three system types: 3 wire negative
pulse,3wirepositivepulseand5wirereversal,restatground.Otherpowerdoorlocksystems
whichmaybeencountered are thevacuumpump types found inmostMercedes vehicles and
the single wire, dual-voltage which has appeared in some late model vehicles. The best way
OptionalPlug-InOmegaPager Port: Thisportallowsdirectconnectionofthe
Omega Pager to the security system control module. Please note that in most installations
Programmable Feature #5, Current Sensing, must be turned off to prevent false alarms by
the security system. The Current Sensing Feature, depending upon the equipment
configuration in the vehicle, may activate the system by detecting the Pager's operation.
The Omega Pager unit includes the wiring harness for direct connection to the security
system, and complete installation and operating instructions.

CONNECTION: Theincludedpinswitchesmaybe installedtoprovidethistriggercircuit
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 the vehicle
is equipped with a usable trunk or hood circuit, locate the proper wire and splice the Blue
wire directly to the vehicle's wire.
When wiring more than one of the vehicle's circuits and/or additional circuits to this
wire, 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 illuminate whenever the hood is raised. Also, diode-isolation
is necessary when combining electronic sensors together ,or, in the same circuit with pin
switches:
Page - 19
Pink Wire - 3rd Channel Output: The function of the Pink wire is to provide
an optional output similar to the Gray trunk release wire. Press both transmitter buttons for
two seconds to activate this output. Once activated, this output will last for one second, or,
for as long as the transmitter buttons are held down, until the transmitter battery-saver
feature turns the transmitter off. This feature can be used to activate other optional modules
(Example: car starting equipment or power window roll up units). Continued Next Page
Sensors are available which include those that monitor shock to the vehicle, detect changes
in atmospheric pressure within the vehicle, and radar sensors that can detect motion inside
andoutsidethe vehicle. When adding anoptional sensor, follow theinstallationinstructions
included with the sensor. After installing, route the harness and connector from the sensor
to the security system control module. Plug the sensor's connector into the module's White
port marked "Aux.". Please see the Owner's Manual for details on the operations of the
sensor port.
Optional Backup Battery Port: This port allows the plug-in addition of an
optional 9 volt alkaline battery (not included) to provide alternative power to operate the
system if power to the control module is disconnected. A built-in protection circuit will not
allow the 9 volt battery to back feed voltage into the vehicle's electrical system.
While on backup battery power, to conserve the backup battery, the system will not have
somefunctions - the Parking Lightoutput, the Doorlock outputs, and Current Sensing input.
The Starter Interrupt, however, will work at all times from battery backup, along with the
following: Aux. output and Aux. Trigger input, Negative Siren/Horn output and the Siren
(+) Supply, Negative Instant Trigger Input, Negative and Positive Door Trigger input,
LED Status Light output, and Remote Panic feature. Please note that 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.
Omega part numbers for the optional parts needed are: BAT-9 (9 volt alkaline battery);
AU-BAT-CLIP (battery holder and plug-in harness)
