using your system manual (active) arming The factory default is active arming. In this mode you can activate, or arm, the system by locking the doors with your factory keyless entry transmitter. When the system arms, you will hear a short horn honk and see the parking lights (optional) flash once. While the system is armed, the status LED will flash about twice a second, showing that the system is actively protecting your vehicle.
note: If any protected doors are left open, the system will not passively arm. Additionally, each time door is triggered during the arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over. armed protection When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows: z (This feature is optional and requires extra labour) If a door is opened, the system will immediately start pulsing the horn and flashing the parking lights (optional). Three seconds later, the horn output changes to a continuous blast.
disarming To disarm the system, unlock the doors using your factory keyless transmitter. The horn will sound twice, and the parking lights (optional) will flash twice. If the horn sounds either four or five times when disarming, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This is called Tamper Alert. disarming without a transmitter This feature allows you to override the system without the transmitter should it be lost, damaged or disabled.
valet mode ® You can prevent your system from arming, by using Valet® Mode. This is very useful when washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet® Mode, the system will not arm, even with the transmitter, but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will work normally. To enter or exit Valet® Mode with the integrated LED/Valet® switch: Turn ignition to “on” position, then turn to “off” position. Press and release the integrated LED/Valet® switch within 10 DRW-35 seconds.
note: The remote Valet® feature will not work with all factory keyless entry systems. Some keyless entry systems do not work with a door open. panic mode (This feature is optional and requires extra labour and parts) If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract attention by triggering the system with your transmitter! If your factory keyless transmitter does not have a panic button, this system can be programmed to enable a panic feature.
diagnostics The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors 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 with an input active (door open or ignition) the unit will chirp once when arming and then one more time a few seconds later.
table of zones The zone number is the number of LED flashes used by the system to identify that input. The standard input assignments are listed below. ZONE (Number LED Flashes) DESCRIPTION 1 Not available - 22CX only 2 Not available - 22CX only 3 Door switch trigger 4 Not available - 22CX only 5 Ignition trigger rapid resume logic This system will store its current state to non-volatile memory. If power is lost and then reconnected the system will recall the stored state from memory.
glossary of terms Control Module : The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden underneath the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor which monitors your vehicle and controls all of the alarm’s functions. Failsafe® Starter Kill : An automatic switch controlled by the system which prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking whenever the system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented from cranking when the system is disarmed, in Valet® Mode, or should the starter kill switch itself fail.
