Congratulations on your purchase of this convenience system by Omega
Research & Development, Inc., a world leader in vehicle security and convenience
products since 1975. This system is designed to offer ease of use and it’s modular
design allows for many features to be customizable to suit your needs.
 Pleasenotethatthismanualiswrittentoreectthefullcapabilityofthissystem
though some features may not be available to you because of vehicle limitations
and/orchosenoptionsatthetimeofinstallation.Itisalsowrittentoreecttheopera-
tionsintheirdefaultcongurations.
This system has two principal user components that you should familiarize your-
self with:
The Status Lights which indicate the current system status and helps in trouble-
shooting failed remote start attempts as well as in customizing the programmable
features.Thespecicoperationsofthelightsaredescribedonpage 4.
The Valet Switch is used to access transmitter and feature programming. It is
also used to place the system in valet mode which temporarily bypasses the remote
start feature. See “Using the Valet Switch” on page 3.

Introduction
Remote Starting

3
It is typically recommended that vehicles equipped with turbocharged engines
allow the engine to idle for after driving to cool the turbocharger. When this Installer
Programmable Feature is enabled, the system will automatically keep the engine
running as follows:
• Withtheenginerunning,holdthebrakepedalandengagetheparking brake.
When the brake pedal is released, the system will keep the engine running for the
programmed time (1, 2, or 3 minutes), and then automatically turn it off.
• Thesystemmaybelockedwhiletheengineisrunning.TurboTimercanbe
prevented from engaging, or “bypassed” if desired, by turning the engine off before
engaging the parking brake, or if it’s already engaged, step on the brake pedal to
turn the engine off.
This feature will automatically start the engine should the vehicle battery drop
below 11 volts or the interior temperature drop to 15 (or 32) degrees fahrenheit. This
feature is very useful when the vehicle is parked for a long period of time in cold cli-
mates. You must activate these features each time you park and wish to use them.
• Turntheignitionswitch“on”,then“off”(enginenotrunning),andwithin7seconds
press the valet switch twice. The system is now in low voltage start mode.
• Toactivatelowtempstarting,enterlowvoltagestartmodeasdescribedabove
but, within 5 seconds of entering low voltage mode, press the valet switch 1 time (15
degrees) or 2 times (32 degrees) within 5 seconds.
NOTE: When low temp start mode is activated, low voltage start is also activated.
These features will operate once every two hours until the ignition key is turned
“ON”.
LOW BATTERY/LOW TEMP AUTOMATIC STARTING
TURBO TIMER FEATURE
PIT-STOP FEATURE
This feature allows you to leave your engine running for making quick errands. To
use this feature, have the engine running normally from the ignition switch and your
footoffthebrakepedal.PresstheValetSwitchtwice;theparkinglightswillash.
Turn the key off and the engine will remain running for the programmed run time.
Valet Mode
Valet mode prevents the remote start feature from being activated. It also dis-
ables horn honks when unlocking the doors. Valet Mode should be used when you
do not wish for remote starting to be operated, such as when you have your vehicle
serviced. To engage Valet Mode:
• Withthesystem“unlocked”,pressandholdtheValetSwitchfor3seconds;the
StatusLightwillturnonandstayontoindicateValetMode.Thelightswillash
twice. Once in Valet Mode, an attempt to remote start will result in no response.
Keep this in mind if remote start stops functioning.
• ToturnoffValetMode,simplypress&releasetheValetSwitchonce.

 TheStatusLighthelpstovisuallyconrmsthestatusofthesystemandprovides
a high level of visual deterrence. The Status Light is located in the window mount
receiver unit.
Normal System Status
1) Off = The remote starter system is off, in standby mode.
2) On Constant = The system is in the Valet Mode & remote start is disabled.
Starting System Status
The Status Light also indicates the remote start status:
3) Flashing Slow (once per second): Remote start is on.
4) Flashing Fast (after activating remote start): The system is in the process of start-
ing the engine.
Remote Starting Diagnostics
Whenever the system is placed into Valet Mode, the Status Light illuminates
solid.However,whenthisrstoccurs,theStatusLightwillash1to6ashesbe-
fore resuming solid illumination. This indicates why the engine stopped running from
the last previous remote starting attempt.
5) 1 Flash = Programmed run time expired.
6)2Flashes=Brakewaspressedorhoodopened.
7) 3 Flashes = Engine stalled or bad tach signal.
8) 4 Flashes = Received transmitter command on activation input to stop.
9) 5 Flashes = Gear selector removed from “park”.
10)6FLashes=Lowvoltage.
Step 1 Turn the ignition key “ON”, then “OFF”
Step 2 Within 5 seconds of step 1, press the valet switch 5 times to access user
features (10 times to access installer features).
~ The parking lights and the status light will turn on.
Step 3 Within 10 seconds of step 2, press the valet switch the number of times cor-
responding with the desired feature’s number.
 ~Thestatuslightsandtheparkinglightswillashequaltotheselectedfeature.
Step 4 Change the feature by pressing the brake pedal the same number of times
that corresponds with the desired setting.
 ~Thestatuslightsandtheparkinglightswillashequaltotheselectedsetting.
Step 5 If you wish to change more features, repeat steps 3 & 4 at this time.
Step 6 To exit programming, turn the ignition key “ON” then “OFF”. Or, you can wait
10 seconds for programming mode to expire. The lights will turn off.

User Programmable Features
Feature #1 Remote Start Run Time
10 Minutes (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
5 Minutes (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
15 Minutes (press the brake pedal 3 times to program)
20 Minutes (press the brake pedal 4 times to program)
This feature sets the period of time that the engine will run after being remotely
started. If the engine is not stopped by controller/transmitter command or a safety
circuit violation, the engine will automatically stop upon the expiration of the selected
time period. Caution: The remote engine starting feature should NEVER be
used when the vehicle is parked in an enclosed structure or garage.
ThisgroupofUserProgrammableFeaturesareallaccessedasagroupintherst
level of features’ programming. These features have a direct affect upon the sys-
tem’s operations, so the programming and operation of each are described.
Feature #2 Steady/Flashing Lights During Remote Start
Steady (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
Flashing (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
ThisFeaturecongurestheoperationofthevehicle’sparkinglightsduringthe
remote start operation. The default setting turns on the parking lights during remote
start;theothersettingashestheparkinglightsonandoffduringremotestart.
This group of Installer Programmable Features are all accessed as a group in the
second level of features’ programming. These features have a direct affect upon the
system’s operations related to the installation and vehicle type AND SHOULD ONLY
BE CHANGED BY THE INSTALLER!!!
Feature #1 Remote Start Activation
1 button pulses (press the brake pedal 1 time to program)
2 button pulses (press the brake pedal 2 times to program) - DEFAULT
3 button pulses (press the brake pedal 3 times to program)
4 button pulses (press the brake pedal 4 times to program)
This feature allows you to choose the number of pulses required on the White/Blue
activation wire to activate the remote start feature. All of the settings must occur
within a 5 second window of the previous pulse.
Feature #2 Engine Detection Method
Tachless Hi (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
Tachless Lo (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
Tach Wire (press the brake pedal 3 times to program)
Data Tach (press the brake pedal 4 times to program)
Crank Only (press the brake pedal 5 times to program)
This feature selects the method in which the remote start monitors the engine’s run-
ning condition in remote start mode.
“Tachless Hi” sensitivity mode has an associated base starter output time duration
(see installer feature #5) and monitors the vehicle’s voltage level to determine if the
engine is running. This setting looks for a voltage increase of 0.3v after cranking.
“Tachless Lo” sensitivity mode operates like the “Tachless Hi” setting but
Installer Programmable Features

looks for a voltage increase of 0.5v after cranking.
“Tach Wire” Before this setting is programmed, refer to the “Violet/White wire” sec-
tion of the installation manual for proper wiring connection and the Tach Learn Pro-
cedure. It will crank the engine for up to 3 seconds or until a tach signal is detected.
“Data Tach” mode operates just like the “Tach Wire” setting except it takes its
reading from the D2D data port instead of using the Violet/White wire. Before using,
make sure this function is supported by the Databus Interface module.
“Crank Only” AKA “blind start” is similar to the “Tachless” settings however, it only
makes one start attempt and does not monitor engine running conditions. This is
useful for many “push-to-start” vehicles.
Feature #4 Satellite Relay Port Green Wire Function
Starter (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
Pulse After Engine Start (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
Status (press the brake pedal 3 times to program)
Domelight (press the brake pedal 4 times to program)
This feature changes the operation of the Green wire (negative) on the satellite relay
port.Thisgivesyoutheexibilitytoaccomodatecertainvehiclesthatrequireany
out-of-the-ordinary pulses or remote start timing.
Starter setting operates as a secondary START output. This will have the same
pulse timing as the large Violet wire on the main harness.
Pulse After Start gives a 0.8 second pulse after the engine starts and is running.
Status will behave like the PINK ignition output except it turns on 1.5 seconds
earlier than the primary ignition output.
Domelight provides domelight supervision output. It will turn on when the system is
unlocked and after turning the ignition “off”.
Feature #5 Extended Starter Cranking Time
0.7 Second (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
1.00 Second (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
1.5 Seconds (press the brake pedal 3 times to program)
2.25 Seconds (press the brake pedal 4 times to program)
This feature determines the crank time of the 1st start attempt when in “Tachless”
mode.Iftheenginedoesn’tstartontherstattempt,itwillretryupto3moretimes
extending the crank time by an additional 0.2 second with each attempt..
Installer Programmable Features (cont’d)
Feature #3 Gasoline Or Diesel Engine
Gasoline (press the brake pedal 1 time to program) - DEFAULT
Diesel 15 Sec. Delay (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
Diesel 20 Sec. Delay (press the brake pedal 3 times to program)
Diesel 30 Sec. Delay (press the brake pedal 4 times to program)
This feature changes the system’s timing of the ignition and starter output sequence
for gas or diesel engines. Gasoline: the starter output will occur 3 seconds after the
ignitions turn on. When in “Tachless” mode, the engine running status is determined
10 seconds after starting. Diesel: the starter output will occur 15, 20, or 30 seconds
after the ignitions turn on (allows for glow plug warming). When in “Tachless” mode,
the engine running status will be determined 40 seconds after cranking.

Run 1 Minute (press the brake pedal 2 times to program)
Run 2 Minutes (press the brake pedal 3 times to program)
Run 3 Minutes (press the brake pedal 4 times to program)
Thisfeaturewhenturnedonconguresthesystemtoautomaticallykeeptheengine
runningbrieyafteritisturnedoff.Thisoperationisdesignedspecicallyforve-
hicles having turbocharged engines. This feature should only be programmed by the
installer, and the operation of this feature depends on the correct connection of the
neutral safety wire to the vehicle’s parking brake. Please refer to the “Black/White
