Lock and Unlock - Doors lock when ignition is turned on and unlock when ignition is turned off. Lock Only - Doors lock when ignition is turned on. Unlock Only - Doors unlock when ignition is turned off. 4 - Horn Output Timing: Control the minimum horn pulse time in milli seconds, some vehicle will require a longer pulse to activate the factory horn.
4 - Tach Mode: Determines how the system monitors the engine running during remote start. Tach - Hard wired directly to the tach wire of the vehicle to monitor AC voltage. Tachless (Crank Average/Voltage) - Determines crank time by averaging the last 8 times the vehicle was started with the key and then monitors the change in voltage after remote start. Hybrid (Crank Average / No Voltage) - Determines crank time by averaging the last 8 times the vehicle was started with the key.
9 - Single I Double Pulse Start: Switches the remote start activation between a single or double press from the transmitter. 10 - IGN 2 Output: Programmable high current output.
