This makes it possible to assign any transmitter button to any system function.
When the remote control receives a page it will generate a page notification to the user (notifications are audible beeps and-or vibration) and the LCD Icons will display the current system status. Command Page When a command (arm/disarm, or auxiliary channel) from the remote control is sent and received, the system will send a command page back to confirm receipt. Alarm Page If the alarm system is triggered while armed, an Alarm Page will be sent to the remote control.
➜ out of range notification If a command is issued from the remote, but the remote is set to the incorrect vehicle or is beyond the range of the vehicle to receive the command, the remote responds with 3 set of 2 quick beeps and the icon will flash 3-times. programming LCD remote ➜ To enter programming mode Press and hold the P button until one long beep is heard.

protecting your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming, and see the status LED flashing in groups, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification. The LCD remote responds to active arming with one beep and the icon will flash 5-times to indicate successful arming of the system. If the LCD remote beeps twice after arming, the system has detected an active sensor that should be checked.
note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switch-protected (boot or bonnet)) is open, the system will not passively arm (unless forced passive arming is programmed on). See Programming Options section of this guide. Additionally, each time a protected entry is triggered during the arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts from the beginning. When armed your vehicle is protected as follows: ➤ Movement inside the passenger compartment will trigger the system.
➜ one-time bypass This feature stops the alarm from arming or activating any outputs that are programmed to activate when the alarm is armed. One-time bypass will defeat the following actions: Passive arming: If programmed ON the alarm will not arm itself. If the remote is used to arm the alarm after exiting the vehicle: Window roll up: If programmed ON this output will not activate. Linked Auxiliary Outputs: If programmed to activate on arm, they will not activate. To activate one-time bypass: 1.
➜ transmitter sensor disable To temporarily disable a sensor input, arm the system. Press the button again and the system will respond with 3 indicator flashes. This means all sensor warn-away triggers are bypassed. Press the button again and the system will respond with 4 indicator light flashes. This means all sensor warn-away and full triggers are bypassed.
➜ high security disarm This security system offers High Security Disarm. High Security Disarm is a feature that makes it possible to silence and reset the system while it is triggering, without disarming the system. If the system is triggered and the siren has been sounding for longer than six seconds, pressing or on the remote transmitter will stop the trigger and return the unit to the armed state. The system will not disarm, but rather reset.
➜ 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 Valet switch is located, and have the PIN code. Check with the installer for the location of the Valet switch. Please refer to the Disarm/Valet Mode section of this guide for instructions to enter the pin code.
3. Turn the ignition key OFF. 4. Turn the ignition key to the ON position. 5. Enter the second number in your PIN (press the Valet switch three times). 6. Turn the ignition key OFF. 7. Turn the ignition key to the ON position 8. Enter the third number in your PIN (press the Valet switch four times). 9. Turn the ignition key OFF. 10. Turn the ignition key to the ON position. 11. Enter the last number in your PIN (press the Valet switch five times). 12. Turn the ignition key OFF.
door controlled The interior light activates for 30-seconds after the system sees a door has closed. (If door was held open for longer than 3 minutes the interior light will not illuminate.) full The interior light activates for 30-seconds after seeing door closure, ignition, or security disarm. (This is the factory setting.) ➜ silent mode To arm or disarm the system without siren chirps, use Silent Mode™.
To enter Valet Mode: 1. Turn the ignition on. 2. Turn the ignition off. 3. Press and release the Valet DRW-35 button within 10 seconds. The status LED will light solidly to indicate the system has entered Valet Mode. To exit Valet Mode: 1. Turn the ignition on. The system will then automatically exit Valet mode. To enter or exit Valet Mode using the transmitter: 1. Open any vehicle door. 2. Press . 3. Press . 4. Press again.
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. Refer to the System Status Chirps and Table of Zones charts for diagnostic information.
➜ disarming diagnostics Extra disarm chirps are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard when disarming, the system was triggered in your absence. If five chirps are heard, a zone was triggered so many times that Nuisance Prevention® Circuitry has bypassed that zone. The status LED will indicate which zone was involved. (See Table of Zones section of this guide.
➜ 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, along with spaces to write in any optional sensors or switches you have had installed.
Example If Zone 3 was active or triggered, the LED will flash three times with a two-second pause. Then it will flash three times again, and repeat until the ignition is turned on. note: Your system stores the last six triggered zones in memory. If your system has been triggered but the LED has been reset by turning on the ignition, your dealer can still recall the last six zones that were triggered. Contact your dealer for details.
high frequency Your system transmits and receives at 433 MHz. This provides a cleaner spectrum with less interference and a more stable signal. owner recognition Owner Recognition is a feature available exclusively from Directed. Using the Directed Bitwriter®, a hand-held programming tool, your dealer can program many of the system settings. The programmer makes it possible to program different settings for each transmitter that is used with the system.
Valet Mode and the battery is disconnected for any reason, such as servicing the car, when the battery is reconnected the unit will still be in Valet Mode. This applies to all states of the system including arm, disarm, Autoimmobilised, VRS®, and Valet Mode. 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 to the vehicle’s battery.
programming Programming options control what your system does during normal operation, and require few or no additional parts. However, some may require additional installation labour. The following is a list of the program settings, with the factory settings in Bold: ➤ Active arming (only with the transmitter) or passive arming (automatic arming 30-seconds after the last door has been closed). ➤ Arming/disarming confirmation siren chirps on or off.
been left open. This feature is useful if a door has been left ajar when leaving the vehicle. Forced passive arming ensures that the security system will be armed in every situation. ➤ Vehicle Recovery System (VRS): Refer to section later in this guide. ➤ PIN code change: Your 4-digit PIN code is noted on the back page of this manual. If you would like to change this PIN for one that is easier for you to remember please visit your installing dealer.
Directed has engineered this vehicle security system, and the VRS® feature to provide the best combination of personal safety and property protection available. When properly installed, the system can never inadvertently stop your vehicle in traffic or in a dangerous position while the vehicle is in operation. It is unlike other systems that shut down your engine while it is running. This system is designed to perform full triple-circuit immobilisation.
➜ vrs® triggered sequence Fifteen seconds after the last door has closed, the system’s status LED will begin flashing. This delay is intended to allow you time to distance yourself from your vehicle in the event of a carjacking. Forty-five seconds later, the siren begins chirping and the indi- cator lights begin flashing. Fifteen seconds after the siren chirps begin, the siren’s output will change to a continuous blast.
➜ disarming the vrs® Take the time to familiarise yourself with the VRS® triggering sequence and the disarm procedure. It is important to recognise and identify the VRS® trigger sequence and know how to disarm it in case of accidental activation. Once the VRS® is armed, it does not disarm automatically. You must disarm it the next time you operate the vehicle. You must disarm it with one of the following procedures: If the system has not entered the triggered sequence (siren has not started chirping): 1.
programming options See your dealer for further details on the options listed below available with this system. Comfort Closure: Windows will close upon locking the vehicle. Dual Sensor Trigger: If programmed, both the onboard and at least one of the optional sensors need to be triggered within 1second of each other for full alarm. note: In dual sensor mode, the LCD remote will report showing both zones that tripped the alarm.
ultrasonic sensors Your security system incorporates two Ultrasonic sensors, which are most commonly mounted at the top of the A-pillars facing the rear of the vehicle. These sensors detect movement inside the vehicle by sensing air disturbance. They should trigger the alarm if a thief gained access to the interior of your vehicle. Please make sure all windows are closed on the vehicle or the ultrasonic sensors could false alarm due to air movement.
Field Disturbance Sensor: An invisible dome of coverage is estab- lished by installing the 508D "radar" sensor. Your security system can then react to any intrusions into this field with the triggered sequence. Headlight Automation: The 545T Nite-Lite® will automatically turn on your headlights when it gets dark. In addition, the 545T will turn your headlights on whenever the windscreen wipers are used. A transmitter function can also be used to turn on your headlights for a programmed time.
glossary of terms ASK Amplitude Shift Keying—a method of transmitting data. Control Unit: The "brain" of your system. Usually hidden under the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor which monitors your vehicle and controls all of the system's functions. Input: A physical connection to the system. An input can be provided by a sensor, pinswitch or through an existing system in the vehicle, such as ignition or courtesy lights. In-vehicle status LED: A light mounted somewhere in the vehicle.
Trigger or Triggered Sequence: This is what happens when the alarm "goes off" or "trips". The triggered response of your system consists of the siren sounding and indicator light flashing for the programmed duration. Valet Button: A small push-button switch mounted somewhere inside the vehicle. It is used to override the alarm when a transmitter is lost or damaged, or to enter or exit Valet mode. Zone: A zone is a separate input that the alarm can recognise as unique.
