primary harness (H1), 12-pin connector primary harness (H1) wiring diagram The primary harness is the standard 12-pin harness used by DEI security systems.
H1/2 WHITE (+) light flash output This wire should be connected to the (+) parking light wire. This output is protected with a 10 amp fuse. Never increase the value of the light flash fuse. If more current is required, use an external relay. NOTE: When connecting this wire to a (-) parking light wire, a relay is required. See the following diagram for the relay application.
IMPORTANT! This output is only intended to drive a relay. It cannot be connected directly to the domelight circuit, as the output cannot support the current draw of one or more light bulbs. H1/5 GREEN (-) door trigger input, zone 3 Most vehicles use negative door trigger circuits. Connect the green wire to a wire which shows ground when any door is opened. In vehicles with factory delays on the domelight circuit, there is usually a wire that is unaffected by the delay circuitry.
H1/7 VIOLET (+) door trigger input, zone 3 This type of dome circuit is used in many Ford vehicles. Connect the violet wire to a wire that shows (+)12V when any door is opened, and ground when the door is closed. This wire will report Zone 3. H1/8 BLACK (-) chassis ground input Remove any paint and connect this wire to bare metal, preferably with a factory bolt rather than your own screw. (Screws tend to either strip or loosen with time.
H1/10 BROWN (+) siren output Connect this to the red wire of the siren. Connect the black wire of the siren to (-) chassis ground, preferably at the same point you connect the control module’s black ground wire. H1/11 RED (+)12V constant power input Before connecting this wire, remove the supplied fuse. Connect to the positive battery terminal or the constant 12V supply to the ignition switch. NOTE: Always use a fuse within 12 inches of the point you obtain (+)12V power.
starter kill harness (H2) wire connection guide H2/1 H2/2 ______ ______ BLACK STARTER KILL INPUT BLACK STARTER KILL OUTPUT H2/1 and H2/2 BLACK starter kill wires Use one of these wire as a starter kill input and the other as a starter kill output wire (these wires are interchangeable). plug-in LED and valet/program switch The LED and the Valet/Program switch both plug into the control module.
transmitter/receiver learn routine The system comes with two transmitters that have been taught to the receiver. Use the following learn routine to add transmitters to the system or to change button assignments if desired. The Valet/Program button, plugged into the blue port, is used for programming. There is a basic sequence to remember whenever programming this unit: Door, Key, Choose, Transmit and Release. 1. Open a door. (The GREEN wire, H1/5, or the VIOLET, H1/7 must be connected.) 2. Key.
4. Press the transmitter button. While HOLDING the Valet/Program switch, press the transmitter button that you wish to assign to that channel. The unit will chirp indicating successful programming. You cannot teach a transmitter button to the system more than once. NOTE: For Channel 4, press Button I to program the Auto Learn Standard Configuration on a twobutton transmitter.
operating settings learn routine Many of the operating settings of this unit are programmable. They can be changed whenever necessary through the Operating Settings Learn Routine. The Valet/Program push-button switch, plugged into the blue port, is used together with a programmed transmitter to change the settings. The Operating Settings Learn Routine dictates how the unit operates. It is possible to access and change any of the feature settings using the Valet/Program switch.
to access another feature You can advance from feature to feature by pressing and releasing the Valet/Program switch the number of times necessary to get from the feature you just programmed to the feature you wish to access. For example, if you just programmed Feature 1 and you want to program Feature 2: 1. Release the Valet/Program switch. 2. Press and release the Valet/Program switch once to advance from Feature 1 to Feature 2. 3. Press the Valet/Program switch once more and HOLD it. 4.
feature descriptions 1 ACTIVE/PASSIVE ARMING: When active arming is selected, the system will only arm when the transmitter is used. When set to passive arming, the system will arm automatically 30 seconds after the last door is closed. Passive arming is indicated by the rapid flashing of the LED when the last protected entry point is closed. 2 CONFIRMATION CHIRPS ON/OFF: This feature controls the chirps that confirm the arming and disarming of the system.
nuisance prevention circuitry Nuisance Prevention Circuitry (NPC) requires that you change the way you test the system, as NPC will bypass an input zone for 60 minutes. If the system “sees” the same zone trigger three times AND the triggers are spaced less than an hour apart, the system will bypass that input zone for 60 minutes. If that zone does not attempt to trigger the system during the 60-minute bypass period, the zone’s monitoring will begin again at the end of the hour.
troubleshooting ■ Door input does not immediately trigger full alarm. Instead, first I hear chirps for 3 seconds: That's how the progressive two-stage door input works! This is a feature of this system. This is an instant trigger, remember, since even if the door is instantly re-closed, the progression from chirps to constant siren will continue.
