system maintenance The system requires no specific maintenance. Your transmitter is powered by a miniature 3V lithium battery that will last approximately one year under normal use. When the battery weakens, operating range will be reduced and the system will provide a low battery warning chirp indication when disarming. your warranty Your warranty registration must be completely filled out and returned within 10 days of purchase.
transmitter functions This system uses computer-based code learning to learn the transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any transmitter button to any system function. The transmitter initially comes programmed with standard configuration, but may also be customized using the CliffNet Wizard PC program. The buttons in all of the instructions in this manual correspond to a standard configuration transmitter.
using your system The buttons used in the instructions in this manual correspond to the standard transmitter configuration. If your transmitter has been custom configured, the icons on your transmitter buttons may not correspond to the indicated functions. arming You can activate, or arm, the system by pressing on your trans- mitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear two short siren sounds, or chirps, and see the parking lights flash twice. The LED will begin to flash steadily.
not chirp. The early chirps provide you with a 25-second warning prior to arming. note: If any protected entry point (a door or a switch-protected trunk or hood) is open, the system will not passively arm. Additionally, each time a protected entry is triggered during the arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over. When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows: z The LED will flash as a visible theft deterrent. z Light impacts will trigger the Warning Zone signal.
disarming without a transmitter This feature allows you to disarm the system without the transmitter should it be lost, damaged, or disabled. In order to disarm without a transmitter, you must have the vehicle’s ignition key, know where the PlainView 2 Valet switch is located, and have the PIN code. Be sure to check with the installer for the location of the PlainView 2 Valet switch and instructions for entering the PIN code. remote siren silencing This system offers remote siren silencing.
transmitter sensor disable To temporarily disable a sensor input, arm the system, press the and simultaneously. The lights will flash four times and all warn away trigger zones three and eight are bypassed. Press the buttons again; the lights flash four times and both warn away and full trigger zones three and eight are bypassed until the system is disarmed. This can be performed anytime the system is armed. 1. Arm the system. 2. Using the transmitter, bypass the sensor. 3.
auxiliary channel bypass Alarm sensor input zones three and eight will be bypassed while a pulsed or timed auxiliary Output is active. panic mode with smart door locking If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract attention by triggering the system with your transmitter! Just press for two seconds to enter Panic Mode. The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for the programmed duration.
3. After the last digit continue to hold three seconds. for The LED status indicator will light steadily if you are entering Valet Mode and will turn off if you are exiting Valet Mode. To exit Valet Mode: 1. Turn the ignition on. 2. Enter PIN code. 3. After the last digit press for one second. The LED will turn off. transmitter valet mode The operations described in this section refer to transmitter buttons.
low battery warning When the transmitter battery is low, the system will generate five quick chirps when disarmed. note: The self-powered smart siren will generate a low-pitched tone. instant auto-arming bypass This will bypass the auto arm feature once only. 1. With the key, turn the ignition on, then off within two seconds. 2. The siren will chirp once to confirm auto arming bypass. 3. The system will not auto arm.
and proceed down to the eighth trigger. If fewer than eight triggers are stored in memory, the LED will blink continuously until the system is armed/disarmed using the transmitter after recalling the final trigger. For more information, please refer to the Table of Zones section of this guide.
select siren sounds Selectable siren sounds are available with the optional self-powered smart siren (515C) only. Contact your local dealer for more information. The 515C transmits a two-way digital signal between itself and the control unit. If a thief disconnects power and/or cuts or tampers with any or all of the siren wires while the system is armed, the siren will sound for five minutes and then reset. Since this will only occur while the system is armed, there is no need for a siren override key.
diagnostics The microprocessor at the heart of your security system is constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors that are connected to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will also record and report any triggers that occurred during your absence. arming diagnostics If the system is armed while an input is active (door open, sensor triggering, etc.

anti-code grabbing (ACG) This unit features Anti-Code Grabbing (ACG) with Random Code Encryption. This means the receiver and transmitters each use a mathematical formula called an algorithm to change their code each time the transmitter is used. This technology has been developed to increase the security of the unit. The control unit knows what the next codes should be. high frequency Your system transmits and receives at 433 MHz.
power saver mode Your system will automatically enter Power Saver Mode while armed or in Valet Mode, after a period of time in which no operation has been performed. This lowers the current draw on the vehicle's battery and prevents the system from draining the battery. Power Saver Mode takes over under the following conditions: 18 z Power Saver when the system is armed: After the system has been armed for 48 hours, the LED will flash at half its normal rate, decreasing the system's current draw.
programming options Programming options control what your system does during normal operation, and require few or no additional parts. However, some may require additional installation labor. Following is a list of the program settings, with the factory settings in bold: z Active arming (only with the transmitter) or passive arming (automatic arming 30-seconds after the last door is closed).
z False Alarm Control Technology (FACT II) on or off: Please refer to the FACT II section of this guide for a complete explanation of how FACT II operates. If FACT II is programmed off, the security system will respond to inputs from any sensor indefinitely. note: Because many states have laws regulating security systems, programming FACT II off may cause your system to violate state laws. z Siren tones and chirp volume: The output of the siren consists of six different tones in sequence.
