Mounting the Scanner
1: Scanner does not remember pattern!
Trouble Shooting - frequently asked questions!
Memory loss will occur whenever the positive wire loses contact with the battery for a moment.
This can occure if the positive wire is attached to the wrong contact on the fuse box or some
other location in the vehicle. Try to connect directly to a line that goes directly to the battery
positive.
2: Scanner does not work when the alarm is turned on!
If you want the scanner to activate when the alarm is turned on you must connect the yellow
wire to the ground output (ignition kill) of your alarm system. DO NOT CONNECT TO THE
LED OUTPUT!. the LED output wire only provides 2-3 volts flashing and is not enough to
power the scanner. Refer to your alarm installation manual or ask your local dealer for the
correct ground output wire.
Scanner will activate when engine is turned off.
