transmitter/receiver learn routine
The system comes with two transmitters that have been taught to the receiver. The receiver can store up to 4
different transmitter codes in memory. Use the following learn routine to add transmitters to the system or to
change button assignments if desired.
Using the optional DEI® Bitwriter™ or PC Interface, the learn routine may be locked. Make sure the learn routine
is unlocked before programming features. If the horn generates one long honk when attempting to program the
unit, the learn routine is locked and must be unlocked using the DEI® Bitwriter™ or PC before proceeding.
The Valet®/Program switch, plugged into the blue port, is used for programming. There is a basic sequence of
steps to remember whenever programming this unit: Key, Choose, Transmit and Release.
1. Key. Turn the ignition on to the ON position.
2. Choose. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Valet®/Program switch the number of
times corresponding to the desired channel listed below. Once you have selected the
channel, press the switch once more and hold it. The LED will flash and the horn will honk
(if connected) to confirm the selected channel. Do not release the Valet®/Program switch.
Channel 4-6: To configure the system's remote transmitters for OEM mode, Channels 4 through 6 are used to
assign the arm, disarm, and panic functions to separate buttons on the remote control. If the remote transmit-
ter being used has already been programmed to the system it will be necessary to delete all transmitters (see
Channel 7 below) before that transmitter can be programmed to Channels 4-6.
Channel 7: If any transmitter button from a known transmitter is programmed to Channel 7, all transmitters will
be erased from memory, and system features will return to factory default settings. This is useful in cases where
the one of the customer's transmitters is lost or stolen. This will erase any lost or stolen transmitters from the
