Congratulations on the purchase of your state-of-the-art vehicle
security system. This system has been designed to provide years
of trouble-free operation. Due to the complexity of this system,
it must be installed by an authorised dealer only. Installation of
this product by anyone other than an authorised dealer voids the
warranty. All dealers are provided with preprinted dealer certifi-
cates to verify that they are authorised.
This owner’s guide should help you to get the most out of your
system. Please take the time to read it prior to using the system.
nnoottee::Your system MUST be installed by an Authorised dealer in accor-
dance with the instructions we supply them. The Viper 460XV system
is designed to be installed in any petrol or common rail diesel vehicle
with a 12-volt battery.

system maintenance
The system requires no specific maintenance. Your remote
control is powered by a small, lightweight 3 volt lithium battery
(CR2032) that will last approximately one year under normal
use. When the battery weakens, operating range will be reduced
and the LED on the remote will dim.
your warranty
It is necessary to retain your sales receipt, which reflects that the
product was installed by an authorised dealer. For full details
regarding your warranty coverage, please refer to the consumer
warranty section of this guide.
ttrraannssmmiitttteerrffuunnccttiioonnss
This system uses a computer-based learn routine to learn the
transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any trans-
mitter button to any system function. The transmitter initially
comes programmed with Standard Configuration, but may also
be customized by an authorised dealer. The buttons described in
this manual correspond to a Standard Configuration transmitter.
➜
➜
nnoottee::Making changes to the existing system will invalidate the certifi-
cate of installation.
nnoottee::The Installation Certificate must be completed by your installer at
the authorised dealer. Other than the remote controls, this system has no
user-serviceable parts. Your authorised dealer can correct any system
wiring problems and, if needed, can return any malfunctioning compo-
nent to Directed Electronics for repair/replacement under the terms of
the Limited Lifetime Warranty printed at the beginning of this guide.

The buttons described in this manual correspond to the standard
configuration. Remember, this is not the only way your transmit-
ter may be set up. It can be customised to meet your needs.
active arming
You can activate, or arm, the system by pressing on your
transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear
a short siren sound, or chirp, and the indicator lights will flash
once. If the vehicle’s central door locking has been connected to
the system, the doors will lock.
➜

12 © 2005 directed electronics, inc.
While the system is armed, the status LED will flash approxi-
mately once per second, indicating that the system is actively
protecting your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming,
and see the status LED flashing in groups, refer to the
Diagnostics
section of this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification.
passive arming
The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically
(called passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive
arming, it will automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is
turned off and the system "sees" you leave the vehicle by opening
and closing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30-second
passive-arming countdown, the status LED will flash twice as
fast as it does when the system is armed. The siren will chirp
once 20 seconds after the last door has been closed and the inte-
rior light has turned off. The system is not actually armed at that
point. The system arms and the doors lock (if connected and
programmed for passive locking) at the 30 second mark, but the
siren will not chirp. The early chirp provides you with a 10-
second warning prior to arming.
note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a
switch-protected (boot or bonnet)) is open, the system
will not passively arm (unless forced passive arming is
programmed on). See Programming Options section of
this guide. Additionally, each time a protected entry is
triggered during the arming countdown, the 30-second
countdown starts from the beginning.
➜

13
© 2005 directed electronics, inc.
When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:
➤Movement inside the passenger compartment will trigger
the system. The triggered sequence is 30 seconds of constant
siren and indicator light flashing.
➤If a door is opened, the system will immediately trigger.
➤Turning on the ignition key will trip the same two-stage
response as opening a door.
➤The built-in triple circuit Immobiliser prevents the vehicle's
ignition, starter and fuel pump from operating.
one-time bypass
This feature stops the alarm from arming or activating any
outputs that are programmed to activate when the alarm is
armed.
One-time bypass will defeat the following actions:
Passive arming: If programmed ON the alarm will not arm
itself.
If the remote is used to arm the alarm after exiting the vehicle:
Window roll up: If programmed ON this output will not
activate.
Linked Auxiliary Outputs: If programmed to activate on
arm, they will not activate.
➜

14 © 2005 directed electronics, inc.
To activate one-time bypass:
1. After parking turn the ignition off.
2. Turn the ignition On for more than 1-second and less than
3-seconds.
3. The siren will chirp once to indicate one-time bypass has
been activated.
To cancel one-time bypass perform one of the following:
Arm then disarm the alarm.
Turn the ignition On for more than 3-seconds.
transmitter sensor disable
To temporarily disable a sensor input, arm the system. Press the
button again and the system will respond with 3 indicator
flashes. This means all sensor warn-away triggers are bypassed.
Press the button again and the system will respond with 4
indicator light flashes. This means all sensor warn-away and full
triggers are bypassed.
autoimmobilisation
The built-in Triple Circuit Immobiliser will automatically arm
(indicated by a slow LED flash), 30 seconds after the ignition is
turned off. (This feature is a Thatcham and EC requirement and,
therefore, is not user-programmable.) To disarm the Immobiliser
when it has AutoImmobilised, either use the remote control to
arm and then disarm the system, or turn the ignition on and
press the or button or enter your 4-digit PIN code.
➜
➜

15
© 2005 directed electronics, inc.
disarming
To disarm the system, press . You will hear two chirps, and
the indicators will flash twice. If the vehicle's central locking is
connected to the system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps
either four or five times when disarming, refer to the
Diagnostics
section of this guide. This is called Tamper Alert and means the
system has triggered while you were away.
high security disarm
This security system offers High Security Disarm. High Security
Disarm is a feature that makes it possible to silence and reset the
system while it is triggering, without disarming the system. If the
system is triggered and the siren has been sounding for longer
than six seconds, pressing or on the remote transmitter
will stop the trigger and return the unit to the armed state. The
system will not disarm, but rather reset. This prevents you from
disabling the system should you wish to disarm it without visu-
ally checking the vehicle. Pressing after resetting the system
will disarm the system; pressing this button during the first six
seconds of the triggered sequence will disarm the security system
immediately. The six second timer is provided for your conve-
nience, in case the system is accidentally triggered.
➜
➜

16 © 2005 directed electronics, inc.
disarming without a transmitter
This feature allows you to disarm the system without the trans-
mitter should it be lost, damaged, or disabled. In order to disarm
without a transmitter, you must have the vehicle’s ignition key,
know where the Valet switch is located, and have the PIN code.
Check with the installer for the location of the Valet switch.
Please refer to the Disarm/Valet Mode section of this guide for
instructions to enter the pin code.
Location of Valet switch____________________________________.
PIN code_________________________________________________.
entering your PIN
Entering your PIN code using the valet switch allows you to
disarm the system without using the transmitters. Your 4-digit
PIN code is noted on the back page of this manual. If you would
like to change this PIN for one that is easier for you to remember
please visit your installing dealer.
1. Turn the ignition key to the ON position.
2. Within 10 seconds, enter the first number in your PIN.
Press and release the Valet switch the same number of times
as the first digit in your PIN.
EExxaammppllee::If your PIN is 2345, press the Valet switch two
times.
3. Turn the ignition key OFF.
4. Turn the ignition key to the ON position.

5. Enter the second number in your PIN (press the Valet switch
three times).
6. Turn the ignition key OFF.
7. Turn the ignition key to the ON position
8. Enter the third number in your PIN (press the Valet switch
four times).
9. Turn the ignition key OFF.
10. Turn the ignition key to the ON position.
11. Enter the last number in your PIN (press the Valet switch
five times).
12. Turn the ignition key OFF. If you have entered the correct
code you will hear two chirps. Should you hear five rapid
chirps, the correct code has not been entered. Begin entering
your PIN from the beginning.

The interior light activates for 30-seconds after seeing door
closure, ignition, or security disarm. (This is the factory setting.)
silent mode
To arm or disarm the system without siren chirps, use Silent
Mode™. Simply press for less than one second before
arming or disarming, and the confirmation chirp(s) will be elim-
inated for that one operation only. If you want the arm/disarm
chirps turned off permanently, your dealer can do this for you.
valet mode
You can prevent your security system from automatically arming
and triggering by using Valet Mode. This is very useful when
washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet Mode, the
security system will not arm, even with the remote transmitter,
but all convenience functions (door locks, boot release, etc.) will
continue to work normally.
➜
note: The Warn Away®response from any optionally
installed sensors are bypassed if the system is armed using
Silent Mode. This ensures that no chirps will be emitted
by the siren in an area you want chirp-free. The system is
still fully capable of triggering. Only the Warn Away®
response is bypassed.

The microprocessor at the heart of your security system is
constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors that are
connected to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and
prevents them from disabling the entire system. The micropro-
cessor will also record and report any triggers that occurred
during your absence. Refer to the
System Status Chirps and
Table of Zones charts for diagnostic information.
arming diagnostics
If the system is armed while an input is active (door open, sensor
triggering, etc.) the unit will chirp once when arming and then
one more time a few seconds later. This is called Bypass
Notification.
The security system will ignore the input that was active when
the system was armed, until the input goes away. Three seconds
later the system will monitor that input normally. For example,
if your vehicle’s boot was open, and you arm the system, you
will hear Bypass Notification chirps. If you close the boot it is
then monitored normally without the need to disarm and then
rearm the system.
note: Bypass Notification will not occur when using
Silent Mode™ or if chirps have been programmed OFF.
➜

21
© 2005 directed electronics, inc.
disarming diagnostics
Extra disarm chirps are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard
when disarming, the system was triggered in your absence. If five
chirps are heard, a zone was triggered so many times that Nuisance
Prevention®Circuitry has bypassed that zone. The status LED will
indicate which zone was involved. (See
Table of Zones section of
this guide.) The system will retain this information in its memory,
and continue to chirp four or five times each time it is disarmed,
until the next time the ignition key is turned on.
system status chirps
The siren will chirp when arming/disarming the system. The
pattern of chirps will audibly report the system’s status as
described below.
Action Number of Chirps Description
Arm 1 System armed
Arm 1 (3-second delay), 1 System armed with
Bypass Notification
Disarm 2 System disarmed
Disarm 4 System disarmed with
