Warning! Safety first The following safety warnings must be observed at all times: • Due to the complexity of this system, installation of this product must only be performed by an authorized Directed Electronics dealer. • When properly installed, this system can start the vehicle via a command signal from the remote control. Therefore, never operate the system in an area that does not have adequate ventilation.

Tach Learning To learn the tach signal: 1. Start the vehicle with the key. 2. Within 5 seconds, press and hold the Valet (Control) button. 3. After 3 seconds the system LED will light constant when the tach signal is learned. 4. Release the Valet (Control) button. Important: This unit can learn the tachometer with the analog input or through D2D using an interface module. The unit confirms which source is used.
Neutral safety switch interface Some vehicles do not have an electrical neutral safety switch, but instead have a mechanical neutral safety switch that interrupts the starter wire when the vehicle is in any drive gear. The remote start must be interfaced before the neutral safety switch , to provide protection from starting in gear.
Remote start shutdown diagnostics If the remote start activates but fails to stay running, the remote start module has the ability to inform you of what may have caused the remote start failure. Before performing shutdown diagnostics it is important that you let the remote start shut off on its own i.e. let it attempt to start 3 times then shut down, if this is not done the unit will report the shutdown you used to shut off the remote start.
Programming system features The System Features Learn Routine dictates how the unit operates. It is possible to access and change most of the feature settings using the Control button. 1. Turn the ignition on, then off. 2. Select a Menu. Press and hold the Valet button. The number of LED flashes and horn honks indicates the menu number. A single LED flash and honk indicates menu 1. Two LED flashes and 2 honks indicates menu 2. 3.

6. Double Pulse Lock 1. Off: lock output pulses once 2. On: lock output pulses twice 7. Factory Alarm Disarm function 1. With Unlock: Factory Alarm Disarm wire pulses as programmed, at the same time as the unlock (Blue) wire, and when remote start is actiavted. 2. Before Unlock: Factory Alarm Disarm wire will pulse as programmed before the unlock wire, and when remote start is activated. 3. Remote start only: Factory Alarm Disarm wire will pulse as programmed during remote start only 8.

6. 2nd Ignition behavior 1. Ignition 2: the relay will emulate the Ignition 1 output during remote start. 2. Accessory 2: the relay will emulate the Accessory 1 output during remote start. 7. Accessory output 1. Off: the Accessory outputs will be OFF during diesel start delay. 2. On: the Accessory outputs will be ON during diesel start delay. 8. 2nd Status behavior 1. Normal : the output will activate before the ignition outputs turn on, and de-activate after they turn off during remote start. 2.
Bitwriter only options If programming with the Bitwriter®, the learn routine can be locked or unlocked. If the learn routine has previously been locked, it must be unlocked with Bitwriter® - this cannot be done manually with the Valet button. The Bitwriter® gives you access to a wider range of system options. These features and the adjustments that may be programmed are described in the table below. Menu Item Feature Default Options 1 Engine Runtime 12 min. 1-60 min.

Reset and deletion If a feature/virtual tach needs to be reset or the remote controls need to be deleted, use the following procedure. 1. Turn the ignition to the ON position (The heavy gauge pink wire must be connected). 2. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Valet button: 2 times if you want to delete remotes, 3 times to reset features or 4 times to reset virtual tach. These features are described next. Delete remotes: This feature erases all remotes from the memory of the system.
The remote start will activate, but the starter never engages. 1. Check for voltage on the purple starter wire two seconds after the remote start becomes active. If there is voltage present, skip to Step 5. If there is no voltage present, advance to Step 2. 2. Check the 30A fuses. 3. If the wait-to-start timer is turned on, the starter will not crank. 4. Is the tach wire connected? If so disconnect it and remote start the vehicle to see if the purple wire sends out voltage.
