Please spend time reviewing this guide to become familiar with your new Excalibur
ATV-1000 vehicle security and convenience system. You will find that your new system
willgiveyouyearsoftrouble-freeconvenienceandprotection. Tolearnhowtooperateyour
system, please become familiar with the following three principal user components: the
Remote Transmitter, the Red LED Status Light and the Valet Switch.
The Remote Transmitter: Each system is capable of being operated by up to four
different remote transmitters. The remote transmitter has four push-button switches, each
having a pictograph as to function. The basic operations are:
- The “arm/lock” button arms the security system, which can also lock the doors.* This
button is also used to operate the “remote panic" feature with locking doors.
- The “disarm/unlock” button disarms the security system, and can unlock the doors.*
This operation can be configured to unlock the driver's door only upon one press of the
button; then, if desired, all of the doors upon a second press of the button. This button
also operates the “remote panic" feature with unlocking doors.
- The “channel2” button is used to operate an additional remote control function such as
trunk release, and to also silently arm or disarm the system.
- The “panic” button operates the remote “Panic” feature without locking or unlocking
the doors.
* Please note that the vehicle must have power doorlocks. In some vehicles, direct
power doorlock connections may made, and in other vehicles an optional power
doorlock interface may be required.

can be in and also serves as a visual deterrent to break-ins and theft.
TheValetSwitch:In“everyday”operation,theValetSwitchisusedtoplacethesystem
into "Valet Mode". Valet Mode can be used to turn off automatic functions, such as Last
Door Arming or Automatic Rearming, and also prevents arming the system via remote
transmitter. The Valet Switch is also used, with the ignition key, to disarm the security
system in the event the transmitter becomes inoperable, and this switch is also used in the
procedure for programming features and programming transmitters.
Arming The System Using The Transmitter
ArmingTheSecuritySystemUsingTheTransmitter:Thesecuritysystemcanalways
bearmed fromthetransmitter, providedtheignition keyis“off” andthesystem isnotin the
ValetMode. To armthe system,after youexit thevehicle andclose allof thedoors, simply
press and release the “arm/lock” button once. The parking and interior lights will flash
once,the sirenwill chirponce andthe LEDStatus Lightwill begintoflash, confirmingthat
the system is armed. In addition, the doors will lock and the starter interrupt will engage to
prevent any attempt to start the vehicle. Your security system is now fully armed, and is
ready to respond if an intrusion attempt is detected.
Please note that the Excalibur’s separate “arm/lock” and “disarm/unlock” button
design allows repetitive operation- if already armed, pressing the “arm/lock” button will
simply rearm the system, and vice versa when pressing the “disarm/unlock” button.

ArmingBypass:Uponarming,ifanysensingcircuitisinoperable,thatcircuitonlywill
automatically be bypassed. When an unsecured system circuit is in a bypassed state, all
other operating circuits will be protected normally. For example, should the trunk be open,
you can still arm the system with the transmitter. Should the bypassed circuit become
secured, it will automatically be reinstated for protection 5 seconds later. When certain
protection circuits are bypassed, such as the hood/trunk and optional sensor, when the
systemisarmed,itwillindicatethisbychirpingthesirenthreetimeandflashingtheparking
lights three times instead of the normal arming indication of one each. Arming Bypass will
only operate when arming the system with the transmitter.

To deactivate the sensor, simply press and release the transmitter’s “channel 2” button

Passively Arming The System
Page - 7
Automatically Arming The Security System Using “Last Door Arming”: For
maximum protection, the Excalibur can also automatically arm itself and lock or not lock
the doors. This feature is programmable, and may be configured to operate if desired.

When the vehicle's last door is closed the siren will chirp once, the parking and interior
lights flash once and the LED Status Light will begin to flash rapidly. Thirty seconds later
the siren will chirp and the lights will flash again, the doors will lock (which is separately
programmable) and the LED Status Light will slow to a steady flash, confirming that the
security system is fully armed. If a point of entry is reopened before the single siren chirp
at30seconds,theLastDoorArmingprocessstops,andwillresettostartoverwhenthepoint
of entry is again closed. All protected entries must be closed to initiate the Automatic Last
Door Arming sequence. Automatic Last Door Arming offers a high level of security, since
you do not have to remember to arm the security system every time you leave the vehicle,
and may entitle you to an insurance discount (please check with your agent or carrier).
To temporarily prevent the system from automatically Last Door Arming, you have
these options: put the system in Valet Mode (page 13-16), leave the door open, or, in most
cases turning on the dome light may cause the system to detect that your door is still open.
Leaving the ignition key turned "on" is not recommended.

The siren will sound and the parking and interior lights will flash for 60 seconds unless
you disarm the system with the transmitter or the Valet Switch and ignition key. If all
protectedentriesaresecureattheendof60seconds,thesystemwillstopandrearm todetect
further entry attempts. If there is a protected entry still open or if an optional sensor is still
inatriggeredstateattheendof60seconds,thesystemwillreactivatefortwomore60second
cycles. In this case the system will stop after a total of 3 minutes and rearm automatically,
while ignoring only the open entry or triggered sensor. When the entry is closed or the
triggered sensor is reset, protection will begin instantly for the formerly affected circuit.
Once the security system has been activated and reset, the disarming confirmation will
nolongerbe2sirenchirps,andtheparkingandinteriorlightsstayingon.Instead,thesystem
will respond with 4 siren chirps and the parking and interior lights flashing 4 times before
staying on for 30 seconds. The LED Status Light will change to flashing one to four times
betweenpausestoindicatewhichprotectioncircuittriggeredthesystem.Theseaudibleand
visual indications will remain this way until the ignition is turned “on”.
Anytime the security system triggers, the LED Status Light will indicate which zone
triggered the system by flashing one to four times, pausing between flashes. This code will
continue to flash, even after disarming. The system can hold two different violation codes
in it's memory, which is cleared by turning the ignition switch "on".
SafetyDisarm/StormMode: Whilethesystemisactivated,i.e.soundingthesirenand
flashingthelights,pressingthe“disarm/unlock”transmitterbuttonwilldisarmthesystem,
but not unlock the doors. This safety feature ensures that the vehicle remain secure should

the system require disarming due to being activated from nuisance or malicious false
sensory inputs, such as typically produced by severe weather conditions. To remotely
unlock the doors if the system is disarmed while activated, simply repeat the disarm
operation by pressing and releasing the “disarm/unlock” transmitter button again. If
disarmed from a panic mode, the normal disarm indications are present, including the
unlocking of the doors.
Disarming The System Using The Transmitter: While the security system is in the
armedstate,pressingandreleasingthetransmitter’s“disarm/unlock”buttononcewill
instantly disarm the system and unlock the doors. If you have the optional unlock driver's
doorfeature,thenupon disarmingonly thedriver'sdoorwillunlock,andif thetransmitter’s
“disarm/unlock”button ispressed againatanytime thereafter,all ofthedoors willunlock.
Wheneverthe systemisdisarmed, pressingthe “disarm/unlock”buttonunlocks thedoors.
Disarming is confirmed by the siren chirping twice, and the parking and interior lights
turning on for 30 seconds. However, the lights will turn off instantly if the ignition switch
is turned "on". If the system was triggered and reset while you are away, the disarm
confirmation will change to 4 siren chirps, 4 light flashes, and then the lights will stay on
for30seconds.Thesecuritysystemwillhavethisresponseupondisarminguntiltheignition
switch is turned "on", which clears the unit's memory.

Automatic Rearming Feature: Should you unknowingly press the transmitter button,
which results in your system disarming, the system will automatically rearm itself 90
seconds later and once again lock the doors. This feature is programmable, and may be
turned on if it is desired.
Automatic Rearming can be paused by opening the door or stopped by turning "on" the
ignition switch. Also, Automatic Rearming can be cancelled by the Safety Disarm/Storm
Modefeature;ifthesystemisdisarmedwhiletriggered,AutomaticRearmingwillnotoccur.
Automatic Rearming is confirmed by a fast flashing LED Status Light after disarming,
unless the system was triggered, in which case a Zone Violation code will flash instead.
Remote Panic Activation From The Transmitter: Should you feel threatened, or the
need to attract attention, you can activate your system's remote “Panic” feature at any time
bydepressingandholdingthe“panic”,“arm/lock”or“disarm/unlock”transmitterbutton
for3 seconds.Your systemwill respondby soundingthe sirenand flashingtheexterior and
interior lights for the normal activated period of 60 seconds. Activating Panic with the
“panic”button willnot affectthedoorlocks; activatingit withthe “disarm/unlock”button
willunlockthedoors;activatingitthe“arm/lock”buttonwilllockthedoors. Todisengage
Panic, simply press and release either the “panic”, “arm/lock” or “disarm/unlock”
transmitter button.
Once remote Panic is activated, after 60 seconds, the system will stop and reset.
Otherwise, if you wish to stop the Panic feature during the 60 second period, press the
Remote Panic Feature
