Selecting instant validity will output a negative signal from the Channel 2 output immediately
when the Channel 2 button is pressed and will continue until the button is released.

The latched output selection will output a negative signal as soon as the Channel 2 button is
pressed and will continue until the button is pressed again.
➤
The latched/reset with ignition output selection operates just like the latched output but will
reset or stop when the ignition is turned on.
➤
The 30-second timed output selection will latch the Channel 2 output on for 30 seconds when
the remote button is pressed or until the button is pressed again within the 30 seconds.
➤
A second unlock output will provide a second unlock pulse whenever the unlock button is
pressed within 15 seconds after unlocking the system. This setting could be used to unlock the
passenger doors when installing progressive door locks, for instance.
NOTE: Programming Channel 2 for second unlock will link the RED/WHITE wire to the unlock
button. Pressing the unlock button once will send the output to the H4/A or H4/C unlock output.
Pressing the unlock button a second time within 15 seconds will send a negative (-) unlock pulse to
the RED/WHITE wire.
1-8 FACTORY ALARM DISARM WITH CHANNEL TWO: Any time Channel 2 is activated from
the remote transmitter the factory disarm output will pulse to disarm the vehicle’s factory anti-theft
device. This option can be programmed off if desired.
1-9 CODE-HOPPING ON/OFF: The system features Code-Hopping as an option. To use Code-
Hopping technology, this feature must be programmed on.
Menu #2 - Remote Start Features
2-1 ENGINE CHECK ON/OFF: In the default setting the remote start will monitor either the
vehicle's tach wire or voltage depending on the programming of Feature 2-2. If programmed off,
the vehicle will crank for the programmed crank time (Feature 2-5) and will not verify with tach or
voltage that the vehicle is running. In the off setting, if the vehicle fails to start, the ignition can stay
on for the entire run duration. Using tach or voltage check is always recommended if possible.
2-2 TACH WIRE SENSE/VOLTAGE SENSE: If the tachometer signal wire is used, this feature must
be left in the default (tach wire connected) setting. If programmed to the voltage sense setting, the
unit will crank the starter for a preset time that can be programmed in Feature 2-5. Once the starter
has been engaged, the system will check the voltage level to verify the engine is running. The
threshold for the voltage level test can be programmed in Feature 2-6. When using voltage sense
mode, connection of the H3/5 WHITE tachometer input is not necessary.
