Feature Descriptions
The features of the system are described below. Features that have additional settings that can be
selected only when programming with the 998T Bitwriter are indicated by the following
icon:
Menu #1 - Basic Features
1-1 ACTIVE/PASSIVE ARMING: When active arming is selected, the starter kill will arm (if
connected) only when the transmitter is used. When set to passive arming, the starter kill will arm
(if connected) 30 seconds after the ignition key is turned off.
1-2 CHIRPS ON/OFF: This feature controls the chirps that confirm arming and disarming of the
system. A siren or horn must be connected to the H1/10 BROWN wire.
1-3 IGNITION CONTROLLED DOOR LOCKS ON/OFF: When turned on, the doors will lock
three seconds after the ignition is turned on and unlock when the ignition is turned off.
1-4 ACTIVE/PASSIVE LOCKING: If passive arming is selected in Menu One, Feature 1-1, then the
system can be programmed to either lock the doors when passive arming occurs, or only lock the
doors when the system is armed with a transmitter. Active locking means the doors will not lock
when the system passively arms. Passive locking means that the doors will lock whenever the system
passively arms the starter kill (if connected).
1-5 DOOR LOCK PULSE DURATION: Some European vehicles, such as Mercedes-Benz and
Audi, require longer lock and unlock pulses to operate the vacuum pump. Programming the system
to provide 3.5 second pulses will accommodate the door lock interface in these vehicles. The default
setting is 0.8 second door lock pulses.
1-6 DOUBLE PULSE UNLOCK OFF/ON: Some vehicles require two pulses on a single wire to
unlock the doors. When the double pulse unlock feature is turned on, the BLUE H2/C wire will
supply two negative pulses instead of a single pulse. At the same time, the GREEN H2/A wire will
supply two positive pulses instead of a single pulse. This makes it possible to directly interface with
double pulse vehicles without any extra parts.
1-7 CHANNEL TWO OUTPUT:
➤ In the delayed validity default setting the Channel 2 output will output a negative (-) signal after
the button is pressed for more than 1.5 seconds and will continue until the button is released.
