• When the system does send a signal to the Echo transceiver, a few seconds is needed for this
“handshake” to occur. If the system is operated rapidly, as in quickly repeating arm and disarm
cycles, the Echo will not have time to receive the signal from the system, and therefore it will stop
responding and reporting the system’s status. This symptom does not occur in normal operation.
• A final point to remember is that the Echo transceiver cannot receive a signal from the host alarm
system while it itself is transmitting. For normal operations, the Echo’s buttons are pressed and
released. Even when “Panic” is operated, the Echo button should be released as soon as “Panic”
engages. Otherwise, the Echo cannot receive the signal from the system.
Programming the Omega Echo:
The optional Omega Echo transceiver has several user-programmable features:
✓Chirp or Mute The chirps may be turned off, and replaced with vibration.
✓Vehicle Type Choices are a passenger car, pickup truck, or van/SUV.
✓Time Adjust To set the Echo’s clock time.
✓Start Melody; and Stop Melody These are played with remote starting.
Programmingthesefeatures isasequential process- thecontrolleris placedintoprogramming mode, then
each programmable operation is accessed in turn, and either changed as desired, or left as is, and then the
next step is accessed. Programming is done using the Echo unit’s three round side buttons:

Congratulations for your choice of a new K-9 vehicle security and convenience system by Omega
Research and Development. You will find that your new system will give you years of trouble-free
convenience and protection. To learn how to operate your system, please take a few moments to
become familiar with the following three principal user components: the Remote Transmitter, the
Status Light and the Valet Switch.
Page - 5
The Valet Switch is used to place the system into "Valet Mode”, which turns off any automatic
system functions, such as Last Door Arming or Automatic Rearming, and also prevents arming the
system via the remote transmitter. The Valet Switch is also used, with the ignition key, to disarm the
security system in the event the transmitter becomes inoperable. It is also used for programming
features and transmitters.
The Remote Transmitter operates your system, and has four push-buttons, each having a
pictograph as to function. The basic operations are described on the facing page.
Each K-9 system is capable of being operated by up to four different remote transmitters. In addition,
this system may be easily upgraded to 2-way control, with the Omega Echo. This option allows you
to both control your system’s operations, and to receive status pages from it, which are audible alerts
and as a visual display upon an easy-to-understand LCD screen. Programming additional or
replacementtransmitters,andadescriptionoftheEcho’soperations,areinlatersectionsofthisbooklet.
The Status Light shows at a glance the various conditions that the security system can be in, and
also serves as a visual deterrent to break-ins and theft. The Status Light may be either red or blue.
The Status Light and Valet Switch can be mounted together, within a special housing, or
independently custom-mounted by the installer. If the optional 2-way Echo controller is used,
the Status Light and Valet Switch are likely on the window-mounted Echo transceiver unit.
impact,causingthesystemto prewarn, the “impact” icon alonewillmomentarilyappear,accompa-
nied by three chirps. If the sensor detects a harder impact or breaking glass, activating the system,
the full hammer and impact icon appears, and the transceiver chips until any button is pressed, and
the icon remains flashing until the ignition switch is turned on.
• The “DOOR” icon will indicate that the system was activated via the door detection circuit. The
transceiver chirps until any button is pressed, and the icon remains flashing until the ignition is
turned on.
• The “start” icon at the rear of the vehicle confirms remote starting. This icon is accompanied by a
musicalmelody,and stays onwhileremotestarting is operating;duringwhich the puffswillchange
to appearing sequentially.
• The “2” within a circle indicates use of the 2nd channel output, which is most commonly used for
a remote trunk release feature.
• The “transmitting tower” icon is an in-range indicator. It is present if the last transmission from the
transceiver was answered by a return signal from the system. Should the transceiver be operated,
and no return signal is received, this icon will disappear.
• The various lines at the upper rear of the vehicle graphic represent a unique Omega feature which
allowstheusertocustomize thevehicletyperepresentedby thedisplay. Optionsare: passengercar,
pickup truck, and sport utility/van.
Page - 36
Other Omega Echo Notes:
• The system will only transmit a signal to the Echo transceiver if the Echo was last used to operate
the system. Example: if the transmitter is used to arm the system, the system will not transmit a
signal which will cause the Echo to chirp and change its icons.
• If multiple Echo transceivers are programmed to operate the system, the system will send its signal
to only one transceiver- the last one used.

Arming the System Using the Transmitter
The system can always be armed from the transmitter, if the ignition key is “off” and the system
is not in the Valet Mode. To arm the system, exit the vehicle, close all of the doors, and simply press
andreleasethe“arm/lock” buttononce. Theparkingand interiorlights willflash once,the sirenwill
chirp once and the Status Light will begin to flash, confirming that the system is armed. In addition,
thedoorswilllockand thestarterinterrupt willengageto preventany attempttostart thevehicle. Your
security system is now fully armed, and is ready to respond if an intrusion attempt is detected.
Your K-9 system is designed to deter theft of both your vehicle and its contents. “Arming” your
system turns onits protection and locking thedoors. Once the system is Armed,any intrusion attempt
will Activate it, sounding the electronic “Psyren” psycho siren and flashing the parking and interior
lights to attract attention. The unique and patented Psyren psycho siren actually produces the sounds
of two different sirens at once, ensuring that it won’t be ignored like all of the other “common” car
alarms. Disarming thesystemturnsoff the protection,unlockingthedoors and turningontheparking
and interior lights, allowing lighted access to, and normal use of, the vehicle.
There are two methods of arming the K-9:
1- The first method is to use the transmitter, by pressing and releasing its “arm/lock” button.
The system must not already be armed or be in Valet Mode, and the vehicle’s ignition key
must be off.
2- The second method is Last Door Arming, which configures the system to automatically arm itself
every time you exit the vehicle. This method of arming is programmable, and may be used or not
used as desired.

• The digit readout is a clock, with AM and PM indication. This readout also shows how many
transmitters/transceivers can operate the system.
• The“DISARM”willalsoshow“ARM”; this indicates the Armed or Disarmedstatusofthesystem.
Neither icon is present when the system is in Valet Mode.
• The locked or unlocked padlock (windshield) reflects the true locked or unlocked status of the
doors (certain programmable features can automatically arm the system, but not lock the doors,
and the doorlocks can be operated without affecting the alarm, as in Valet Mode). Arming with the
transmitter/transceiver always locks the doors; disarming with the transmitter/transceiver will
unlock the doors unless the system is activated and sounding.
• “VALET”indicatesAlarmValetMode,replacingthe“ARM”or“DISARM”icons. Amusicaltone
occurs when placing the system into Alarm Valet Mode.
• When “BAT LOW” appears the transceiver’s 1.5 volt AAA battery should be replaced with a new
battery. The Echo also periodically double chirps when the battery is low.
• The transceiver’s chirps and musical tones may be turned off, which makes the unit vibrate instead;
“MUTE” indicates this state.
• The “3” within a circle appears when the 3rd channel output is operated.
• “HOOD/TRUNK” indicates that thiszonethevehicleis or has been violated. If associatedwiththe
system being activated, the transceiver also emits chirps,until any button is pressed. In this case,
the icon remains flashing until the ignition switch is turned on.
• If a remote starting attempt is made, and systems aborts it due to a violated safety circuit, the
“crossed-out key” on the hood area will appear (this is accompanied by a musical tone).
• The “CARJACK” icon within the vehicle’s front tag frame indicates that this operation has been
activated, which can be performed by any of three methods.
• On the vehicle’s windshield is a “hammer” and “impact” icon. When the shock sensor detects light

Arming Bypass: Upon arming, if any system sensing circuit is inoperable, that circuit only will
automaticallybebypassed. Whenanunsecuredsensingcircuitisinabypassedstate,allothernormally
operatingcircuitswillbeprotected. Shouldthe bypassed circuit become secured, it willautomatically
be reinstated for protection 5 seconds later. When certain protection circuits are bypassed, such as the
hood/trunk and impact sensor, and the system is armed, it will indicate this by chirping the siren three
time and flashing the parking lights three times instead of the normal arming indication of one chirp
and one flash.
For example, should the trunk be open, you can still arm the system with the transmitter, and in
this case the arming indicator will be 3 siren chirps and 3 parking light flashes. Arming Bypass will
only operate when arming the system with the transmitter.
Page - 7
Optional Sensor Bypass: Should an optional impact or shock sensor be installed, when
arming the K-9 system with the transmitter, you may conveniently and easily temporarily deactivate
the impact sensor without affecting the system’s other sensing circuits. To deactivate the sensor, arm
thesystembypressingthe“arm/lock”button,thenpressandreleasethe transmitter’s“II”buttonwithin
threeseconds. Youwillhearasecondsirenchirpconfirmingthatthesecuritysystemhasarmedwithout
the sensor protecting the vehicle. The next time the system is armed normally with one “arm/lock”
button press, the sensor will again be part of your protection.
The K-9 system’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.

K-9 can be operated by as many as four
standard transmitters and/or Echo transceivers.
The Echo has the same four operational buttons
as the standard transmitter- the “arm/lock”, the
“disarm/unlock”,the“II”2ndchanneloutputbutton,
An exiting upgrade option to your K-9
is a 2-way remote “transceiver” controller, the Omega
Echo. The remote transceiver, in addition to oper-
ating your system just like the standard transmitter,
also receives signals from the system and emulates the
siren chirps and displays a variety of sys-
and “III” button for remote Panic or 3rd channel output. The Echo transceiver has a fifth button, the
“Programming” button; pressing this button
will illuminate the LCD screen.
TheK-9can alsobeprogrammed toautomaticallyarm itself,andin thisprocess,to lockornotlock
the doors. When this feature is utilized, closing the vehicle's last door will cause the siren to chirp

once, the parking and interior lights to flash once and the Status Light to start flashing rapidly. Thirty
seconds later the siren will chirp again and the lights will flash again, the doors will lock (which is
separatelyprogrammable)andtheStatus Light will slow to asteadyflash,confirmingthat the security
system is fully armed. If a point of entry is reopened before the single siren chirp at 30 seconds, the
Last Door Arming process stops, and will reset to start over when the point of entry is again closed.
All protected entries must be closed to initiate the Last Door Arming sequence.
To temporarily prevent the system from automatically Last Door Arming, you have these options:
putthe systeminValetMode(page13),leavethedooropen,or, inmost casesturning onthedomelight
may cause the system to detect that your door is still open. Leaving the ignition key turned "on" is not
recommended.
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 using it may entitle you to an insurance discount
(please check with your agent or carrier).

While the System is Armed, and should it become Activated
While the security system is armed, the Status Light is always flashing. Should any intrusion
attempt be detected, the system will instantly activate, or "trigger". Once triggered, the K-9 loudly
sounds the siren and flashes the parking and interior lights on and off. When it is first triggered, the
Status Light changes it flash pattern, and the doors will automatically relock. Should a door be open
when the system triggers, it will wait until the door is closed, and at that time relock the doors. The

The siren will sound and the parking and interior lights will flash for 30 seconds unless you disarm
thesystem first(60 seconds,insteadof30,isaprogrammableoption). Ifallprotectedentriesaresecure
at the end of 30 seconds, the system will stop and rearm itself, ready to detect further entry attempts.

the system will reactivate for two more 30 second cycles. In this case the system will stop after a total
of 3 cycles and rearm automatically, and then ignore only the open entry or violated sensor. When the
entry is closed or the sensor is reset, protection will begin instantly for the formerly affected circuit.
Anytimethesecuritysystem triggers, theStatusLightwill indicate whichprotectedzonetriggered
the system by flashing two, three or four times between pauses. This “Zone Violation” 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".
Once the K-9 has been activated and reset, the disarming confirmation changes to make the user
aware that it has done so. This is explained in the next section.
Page - 9
There are two methods of disarming the K-9:
Disarming the System
Disarming the System Using the Transmitter
2- Thesecond methodisan“Emergency Override”alternative,shouldthe transmitterbecome lost
or inoperable. This method uses the Valet Switch, but the vehicle’s ignition key is also required.
1- The primary method is to use the transmitter, by pressing and releasing its “disarm/unlock”
button. This is the normal “daily use” method.
Press and release the transmitter’s “disarm/unlock” button once to instantly disarm the
system,disengagingthestarter interrupt and unlock thedoors.If youhave the optional unlock driver's
door feature, then upon disarming only the driver's door will unlock, and if the transmitter’s “disarm/
unlock” button is pressed again at anytime thereafter, all of the doors will unlock.
Step 1 - Turn the ignition "off", and press the Valet Switch 5
times. (the system will respond by briefly sounding the siren)
Step 2 - Press the Valet Switch the same number of times as
the feature number. (the system will acknowledge the Valet Switch entry by repeating the same number of chirps)
Step 3 - Press the transmitter's “arm/lock” button to turn the
feature"on", or press the “disarm/unlock” button to turn the feature "off". (turning the feature "on" is indicated by one siren chirp; turning the feature "off" is indicated by two siren chirps)
Repeat - Steps 2 and 3 for each feature to be changed
This checklist helps when programming features. Before
attempting feature programming, please first carefully read pages 23-24 to become familiar with the programming proce- dure, and features’ descriptions which start on page 25. Mark each applicable box with "\" next to the feature to be changed before entering Features Programming Mode. As each feature is programmed, change its mark to "X".

Disarming is confirmed by the siren chirping twice, the Status Light turning off, and the parking
lightsflashingtwice,thenwiththeinteriorlightsilluminatingfor30secondsforapproachillumination.
The lights will turn off instantly if the ignition switch is turned "on" before the 30 seconds expires.
SafetyDisarm/StormMode: Whilethesystemisactivated,i.e.soundingthesirenandflashing
the lights, pressing the “disarm/unlock” transmitter button will disarm the system, 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.
AutomaticRearmingFeature:Automatic Rearmingisaprogrammablefeature whichensures
thatyoursystem isneverinadvertently disarmed. It ispossibleto accidentallyorunknowingly operate
the transmitter from a pocket or purse. You may not even be aware of an accidental disarming due to
the enhanced operating distance offered by the K-9’s extended range transmitter.
Automatic Rearming can be paused by opening the door or stopped completely by turning the
If the K-9 was activated and reset itself: The disarming confirmation will no longer be 2
siren chirps, and the parking lights flashing twice before staying with the interior lights. Instead, the
system will respond with 4 siren chirps and the parking and interior lights flashing 4 times before
staying on for 30 seconds. The Status Light will change to flashing two to four times between pauses
as a “Zone Violation” code to indicate which protection circuit triggered the system (2 flashes, hood/
trunk; 3 flashes, doors; 4 flashes , optional sensor). These special audible and visual disarming
indications, and Zone Violation code, will remain this way until the ignition key is turned “on”.

This feature changes how the transmitter operates the remote Panic feature
and the 3rd channel output. When this feature is in its optional setting, pressing the transmitter's “III”
button for 1 second will operate the 3rd channel output. Panic can still be operated, by the alternative
methods of pressing either the “arm/lock” or “disarm/unlock” button for 3 seconds.

This form of Anti-Carjacking is initiated by the ignition key being turned on.
The Anti-Carjacking protection, and the three ways to initiate it are described on pages 19-20.
Feature #24 Open Door Warning Upon Arming (Factory Default Setting OFF)
When this feature is turned on, if one of the vehicle's doors is open when the system is armed via the
transmitter, the siren will chirp 3 times and the parking lights will flash 3 times instead of once.

in which case a Zone Violation code will flash instead.
Disarming the System by Emergency Override
Should the transmitter become lost, damaged, or its batteries become exhausted, the Valet Switch
and the vehicle’s ignition key may be used to disarm the system:
Step 1 With the system in the armed condition, enter the vehicle via the driver's door (be aware that
the system will activate to an alarm condition when the door is opened).
Step 2 Using the ignition key, turn the vehicle’s ignition switch on.
Step 3 Within 5 seconds press and release the Valet Switch one time. The system will disarm.
Should you feel threatened, or the need to attract attention, you can activate your system's remote
“Panic”feature atanytimebypressingandholdingfor3secondsanyofthesethreetransmitterbuttons:
“arm/lock”, “disarm/unlock” or the red “III” button. Your system will respond by sounding the siren
and flashing the parking lights for the normal activated alarm period of 30 seconds. Further, the K-9

Feature #20 Total Closure Lock Output (Default Setting OFF)
This is another installation-related feature, provided for the installer’s use only. Should the vehicle
have an existing “Total Closure” feature, this programmable feature gives the installer the option of
configuring the K-9 to operate this feature. Typically, on vehicles having total closure, when locking
the vehicle’s doors if the key in the door is held to “lock” for a period of time the vehicle will close all
windows and the sunroof, in addition to locking the doors. Should your vehicle be equipped with this
operation, please inquire with the installer if it is possible to interface the K-9 with the vehicle’s total
closure operation.
Turning this feature on changes the system’s door lock output pulse from a .75 second pulse to be
a 28 second duration output. Note: When this feature is turned on, during the 28 second period after
arming the system, should either Upper Button be pressed, “Lock” or “Unlock”, only the system’s
lock output will be stopped. Pressing either button again will normally operate the system, and at any
time after the 28 second lock output period ends.

Feature #16 Double Unlock Pulse (Factory Default Setting OFF)
This feature is for certain installation-related issues pertaining to the vehicle itself, and are provided
for the installer’s use only. Some newer vehicles require a double pulse output wiring connection to
remotely unlock the doors and/or to disarm a factory-equipped security system, which is what this
feature provides.
Feature #17 3 or 45 Second Arming Delay (Factory Default Setting 3 Second)
When the system is armed, either by the transmitter or automatically, there is a brief period of time in
which a system activation cannot occur. This allows the system to completely process the arming
operations, and the vehicle to stabilize. In some cases more time is needed than the factory-set 3
seconds. This feature offers a longer 45 second delay. When programming, press the transmitter’s
“arm/lock”buttontoselect the 3 secondsetting;orpressthe “disarm/unlock” button toconfigurethe
45 second setting.
Feature #19 Confirmation Chirp Volume (Factory Default Setting Medium Loud)
This feature allows the choice of four different volume levels of the system’s confirmation chirps.
This feature operates regardless of the previous feature’s “Steady Siren” or “Pulsed Horn” setting.
All four transmitter buttons are used to program the four different levels, shown as follows:
Feature #18 Steady Siren or Pulsed Horn (Factory Default Setting Steady Siren)
It is possible to utilize the vehicle’s existing horn for the audible part of the system’s operation. This
feature changes the audible output of the system from the steady output required by the electronic
siren to a pulsed output which is suitable for operating the horn. When programming, press the
transmitter’s “arm/lock” button to select the Pulsed Horn setting; or press the “disarm/unlock”
button will configure the Steady Siren setting.
Panic, and in association with the transmitter button used in it’s activation or deactivation:
To disengage remote Panic, simply press and release any one of the same three transmitter buttons, or,
allow it automatically stop after 30 seconds.
• Activating Panic with the “III” button will not affect the system’s armed or disarmed status, the
doors locked or unlock condition; nor will it affect an optional starter disable circuit.
• Activating it with the “disarm/unlock” button will unlock the doors, disarming the system and
disengaging the starter interrupt, should one be installed.
• Activating Panic with the “arm/lock” button will first lock the doors, arming the system and, if
installed, engaging an optional starter interrupt, preventing the engine from being started.
• Deactivating Panic with the “arm/lock” button will stop Panic, and leave the system armed with
the optional starter interrupt engaged (if installed), and the doors locked.
• Deactivating it with the “disarm/unlock” button will stop Panic, and leave the system disarmed
with the optional starter interrupt disengaged, and the doors unlocked.
• IfthesystemisallowedresetitselffromremotePanic,itwillenterthearmedstate,lockingthedoors
and engaging the optional starter interrupt, regardless of which button was used to activate it.
• Deactivating Panic with the “III” button will stop Panic, and leave the system in the same state it
was in at the moment Panic started, without locking or unlocking the doors.
Finally,enhancedremotePanic’sflexibility makes it possible tomovethe3rdchannel output from the
“arm/lock” and “disarm/unlock” buttons together to the red “III” button. When taking advantage
of this programmable feature, the “III” button’s Panic operation moves to the “arm/lock” and
“disarm/unlock” buttons. Page - 12

Using the Valet Switch
The Valet Switch has several functions:
• Itis alsousedintheproceduresforprogramming featuresand programmingtransmitterstooperate
the K-9 system. These uses of the Valet Switch are described in the programming sections.
• Should your transmitter be lost or become inoperable, the Valet Switch, and the ignition key, can
be used to disarm the system with an Emergency Override.
• Placing your K-9 security system into Valet Mode, which prevents it from arming.
Valet Mode: Anytime that the system is disarmed, simply press and hold the Valet Switch for
2secondstoactivatetheValetMode.ThesystemwillconfirmthatitisenteringValetModebychirping
the siren twice, flashing the parking lights twice, and the Status Light will illuminate and stay on. The
system will remain in Valet Mode until it is removed. While in Valet Mode, although the system will
not arm, the transmitters will still lock and unlock the doors, operate the remote Panic feature, 2nd
channel and 3rd channel outputs. The doors will also lock when the ignition key is turned "on" and
unlock when it is turned "off"'. While the security system is in the Valet Mode, every time the ignition
key is turned "off", the siren will chirp once as a reminder.
To turn off Valet Mode, simply press the Valet Switch; the Status Light will turn off confirming
the system’s exit from Valet Mode.
Emergency Override: If the system is in the armed state or activated condition, however, it
cannot be placed into Valet Mode. Instead, an Emergency Override must used to disarm the system

Feature #12 Confirmation Chirps in Valet Mode (Factory Default Setting Off)
While the system is in the Valet Mode, the transmitter will still remotely lock and unlock the vehicle's
doors. This feature adds the confirmation siren chirps if the transmitter is used to lock or unlock the
doors while the system is in Valet Mode.
Feature #13 30 or 60 Second Alarm Duration (Factory Default Setting 30 Seconds)
This feature allows the choice of a 30 or 60 second Alarm Duration, which is the system triggering, or
activating, sounding the siren, flashing the parking lights and locking the doors. When programming,
pressing the transmitter’s “arm/lock” button will select the 60 second setting; pressing the “disarm/
unlock” button will configure the 30 second setting.
Feature #14 Parking Light Illumination Upon Disarm (Factory Default Setting On)
Thisfeatureaffectstheparkinglightoperationwhenthesystemisdisarmed. Whenthisfeatureisturned
on, the parking lights flash once, and then light continuously for external illumination for 30 seconds

once only, and do not illuminate. This feature only affects the K-9’s parking light operation, and not
the interior light operation.
Feature #15 2nd Channel Also Disarms System (Factory Default Setting On)
“2nd channel” is most commonly used to remotely open the vehicle’s trunk, in which case the alarm
should also disarm. This feature, turned on, configures the system to disarm when the 2nd channel is
used. If turned off, the 2nd channel output will still occur, with 2 chirps, but no light flashes and the
alarm will not disarm.

SecureCode: “SecureCode” allows the user to customize the number of Valet Switch presses
whicharerequired to successfullyperforman Emergency Override. ThebasicEmergencyOverride
procedure is described on page 11. Instead of a single “1 press” of the Valet Switch which would
be required in order to perform an Emergency Override, two stages of Valet Switch presses must be
made. In each of the two stages, the Valet Switch will need to be pressed 1 through 9 times, as
programmedbytheuser. ThisistheEmergencyOverrideprocedureifthesystemhasprogrammedwith

Feature #9 Ignition Off Unlock #2 (Factory Default Setting Off)
Explained in the previous feature, if Driver’s Door Priority is installed this feature controls the
automatic unlocking when the ignition key is turned off of all doors except the driver’s door.
Feature #10 Open Door Bypass of Ignition Locking (Factory Default Setting On)
This feature cancels the automatic locking or unlocking of the vehicle’s doors should one of the doors
is open when the ignition switch is turned on or off.
Feature #7 Doors Lock With Ignition On (Factory Default Setting On)
Thisfeaturehasthe system automatically lock thevehicle’sdoorsevery time the ignition keyisturned

The Status Light
TheStatusLightvisuallyindicates theoperationalconditionofthe system,inaddition toproviding
visual deterrence. The Status Light may be either red or blue; a blue light is included with the system,
aredlightis available as an option,andared Status Light is usedintheoptional Echo 2-way controller
window-mountable transceiver unit. Regardless of color, the Status Light operations are the same.
Security System Status:
All of these Status Light indicators refer to the system’s “alarm” operations:
•Off indicates that the alarm is disarmed, and also not in the process of Last Door Arming or
Automatic Rearming (both of which are programmable, and must be turned on to operate).
•On Constantly indicates that the system is in Valet Mode.
•Flashing Slow indicates that the alarm operation is fully armed.
•Flashing Fast indicates that Last Door Arming or Automatic Rearming is in progress.
Zone Violation:
Once it is armed, should the system trigger and enter an alarm condition, the Status Light will change
from flashing slowly to flashing in a coded sequence which indicates which protected zone caused the
alarm condition.
Page - 26
Feature #3 Automatic Rearming (Factory Default Setting Off)
“Automatic Rearming”, described on page 10, prevents the system from becoming accidentally
disarmed.
Feature #2 Last Door Arming (Factory Default Setting Off)
“Last Door Arming” has the system automatically arm itself every time you exit the vehicle (the
complete operation is described on page 7). This feature turns that operation on or off.
Feature #4 Automatic Starter Interrupt (Factory Default Setting Off)
If a Starter Interrupt is installed, turning on this feature will cause it to automatically engage 90
seconds after the ignition switch is turned "off", and also 90 seconds after disarming the system. This
automatic engagement will occur even if the security system is in a disarmed state, but not if it is in
Valet Mode. Once the Starter Interrupt output is activated, the system must be armed, then disarmed
with the transmitter, or placed into the Valet Mode by pressing the Valet Switch for 2 seconds to
disengage it. There are no Status Light indications with this automatic form of Starter Interrupt.
Feature #5 Doors Lock With Last Door Arming (Factory Default Setting Off)
This feature adds the automatic locking of the doors to the Last Door Arming operation. If this feature
isaddedtofeature #4, when thesystembecomesarmed 30 secondsafterclosingthe last door thedoors
will also lock . This feature will operate only if feature #2 is turned on.
Feature #6 Doors Lock With Automatic Rearming (Factory Default Setting Off)
This feature adds the automatic locking of the doors to the Automatic Rearming operation. If this
feature is added to feature #3, when the system rearms itself 90 seconds after being disarmed the doors
will also lock. This feature will operate only if feature #3 is turned on.

The pages following explain each of the programmable features in detail, and on pages 32-33 of
this booklet is a convenient feature programming checklist, which greatly simplifies the features
programming process.

The2ndchanneloutput,whichisoperated bypressing andholding thetransmitter’s “II”button
for 1 second, is designed specifically to operate your vehicle’s electric power trunk release. Your
vehicle will respond by releasing the trunk lid or rear hatch, chirping the siren twice, turning on your
parking and interior lights for 30 seconds, unlocking the doors, and disarming the system if it was
armed. The 2nd channel output will not operate when the ignition switch is "on" unless the vehicle's
door is open. If desired, the security system can be programmed to remain armed when this feature is
used, and connection of the 2nd channel may require extra parts or installation.
Your K-9 vehicle security system is designed to easily add an optional auxiliary impact sensor
whichwill greatlyincreasetheeffectivenessof yoursystem. A lightshockorimpacttothevehicle will
initiate Prewarning, while a heavier shock or impact will fully activate the security system. Several
typesofsensorsareavailable,includingaradar-technologysensorthatcandetectmovingobjectsinside
and outside the vehicle.
The optional sensor may be temporarily bypassed using the transmitter- within 3 seconds after
arming the system, by pressing the “II” button. The system will respond with one chirp, confirming
that the sensor is bypassed. If the system is triggered by the shock sensor, the Zone Violation feature
will flash the Status Light four times between pauses.

How to Program Features
The K-9 has 25 programmable features, most of which allow the user to customize the system’s
operation (several programmable features are installation-related). “Features Programming Mode” is
theprocessfor changingthesefeatures. The vehicleignitionkey andtheValet Switchareused toenter
the Programming Mode, then the transmitter is used to change features. Once the system is in
Programming Mode, a 10 second period without programming activity will cause the system to
automatically exit Programming Mode. Features can be selected in any order as desired.
To Enter Programing Mode and Change Features:
Step 4 Within 10 seconds, press and release the Valet Switch the same number of times as the
desired feature’s number.
•The siren will chirp and the Status Light will flash the same number times as the Valet
Switch was pressed to indicate the feature number which may now be programmed..
To Access a Feature:
Step 3 Within 5 seconds, press and release the Valet Switch 5 times.
•The siren will chirp then sound briefly and the Status Light will flash to confirm that the
system is entering Programing Mode.
•Once in Programming Mode, if 10 seconds of no programming activity occurs, the system
will exit Programming Mode. Programming activity is the pressing of the Valet Switch to
select a feature or pressing a transmitter button once a feature is selected.
Step 2 Turn the ignition off.
Step 1 Turn the vehicles’s ignition on.

The K-9 also has a 3rd channel output which is similar to the 2nd channel, but with special
operational design differences which make it ideal for use with an optional remote engine starting
module. To operate it, press and hold the transmitter’s “arm/lock” or “disarm/unlock” buttons
togetherfor1second. Or,aprogrammablefeatureallowsthepressingofthe“III”buttononlytooperate
this output. The 3rd channel output will operate regardless of the ignition switch being "on" or "off",
and there is no audible or visual confirmation. Activating it also puts the system into a mode in which,

Anti-Carjacking Protection
TheK-9isequippedwith threeseparateAnti-Carjackingprotectionfeatures, whoseoperationmay
be selectively activated by the ignition, by an open door, or by the transmitter. All three are
programmable, and must be turned on to operate. Once activated, the user has 53 seconds to cancel
the Anti-Carjacking protection process by pressing the Valet Switch once. If Anti-Carjacking is not
cancelled, 53 seconds after being activated the siren will begin to chirp for 7 seconds to alert the user
that the system is about to enter into an alarm condition. The Valet Switch may still be pressed once
during this period to cancel the Anti-Carjacking process.
If the Anti-Carjacking process is not cancelled before the 60 second countdown expires, the
system will enter an alarm condition, sounding the siren and flashing the parking lights. 30 seconds
after this occurs, or should the ignition be turned off in the meantime, an optionally-installed stater
interrupt will engage. Once the system enters the alarm condition, it will not respond to the transmit-
ter, nor will the system reset automatically after 60 seconds, and it can only be disengaged by:
Step 1 Turning the vehicle’s ignition off.
TheK-9comeswith two pre-programmedtransmitters,butas many asfourmaybe used tooperate
the system. Each transmitter has its own unique and ever-changing digital “code”, which is
programmed to operate the system by a special “learning” procedure. When adding transmitters to
operate the security system, all previous transmitter codes are deleted, so all transmitters which are to
operatethesystemmustbeprogrammedatthesametime. Toprogramtransmitters,followthisprocess:
How to Program Transmitters
Step 3 Press the “arm/lock” button on each remaining transmitter. The system will chirp the siren
once to confirm that each transmitter code was learned. The other three transmitter button's
functions will automatically be assigned when the “arm/lock” button is learned. If a code is
not received within a 10 second period, the learning process will automatically terminate, as
indicated by another siren burst.
Step 2 Within 5 seconds of turning on the ignition, press the Valet Switch 5 times. The siren will
brieflysound, confirmingthat forthe next10 secondsthe systemis readyto learna transmitter
code. Toenteratransmittercode,simplypressandreleasethetransmitter’s“arm/lock”button
(the button which is designed to arm the system). When the first transmitter code is learned
all existing stored transmitter codes will be erased.
Step 1 Have all transmitters which are to operate the system at hand. Turn the ignition “on”.

Switch must be pressed within 60 seconds after this is done to cancel Anti-Carjacking. This is
programmable feature #23.
Anti-Carjacking protection activated an open door has the process start should a door be
opened after the vehicle is started and the engine is running. The Valet Switch must be pressed within
60 seconds after the door is opened to cancel Anti-Carjacking. This is programmable feature #22.
Anti-Carjacking protection activated by the vehicle’s ignition has the process start every

The K-9 features several security safeguards in one of the most vulnerable areas of any remotely
controlled system. A basic safeguard is Code Jumping; as the transmitter sends a signal over the air
to operate the system, it is quite feasible for a thief to record these coded signals, for later playback to
the system to operate it and thus defeat it. K-9’s Code Jumping renders such “code grabbing” devices
useless by randomly changing each signal that the transmitter sends.
Another weakness found in all remote-controlled security and keyless entry systems lies in their

ability of being operated by more than one transmitter. K-9 has patented, unique operations which
shows the number of transmitters capable of operating it, and also has a special warning should
transmitters have recently been programmed to operate the system.
Unauthorized Transmitter Alert sounds a brief series of siren chirps every time the vehicle’s
ignition is turned on, if a transmitter has been programmed, for 48 hours thereafter. The 10 second
visual display of number of operating transmitters, described previously, will also increase to being
displayedfor90 seconds insteadof10seconds. 48 hours aftertheprogramming occurred, thewarning
chirps disappear and the Status Light flashing the number returns to being displayed for 10 seconds.
Automatic Transmitter Verification shows the total number transmitters which can operate the
system, by flashing the Status Light with this number for 10 seconds every time that the ignition key
is turned on.
Optional Backup Battery
The K-9 security system is designed for easy compatibility with a Backup Battery power option.
The Backup Battery option will allow the security system to operate its most vital functions even if
power is removed from the system's control module or if the vehicle's battery is disconnected. The
