This feature selects the method in which the remote start monitors the engine’s running condition 

in remote start mode  

“Tachless hi”

 sensitivity mode has an associated base starter output time duration (see installer 

feature #7) and monitors the vehicle’s voltage level to determine if the engine is running. This set

-

ting looks for a voltage increase of 0.3v after cranking.  

“Tachless Lo”

 sensitivity mode operates like the “Tachless Hi” setting but looks for a voltage 

increase of 0.5v after cranking.

“Tach Wire”

 Before this setting is programmed, refer to the “Violet/White wire” section of the 

installation manual for proper wiring connection and the Tach Learn Procedure. It will crank the 

engine for up to 3 seconds or until a tach signal is detected.

“Data Tach”

 mode operates just like the “Tach Wire” setting except it takes its reading from the 

D2D data port instead of using the Violet/White wire. Before using, make sure this function is sup

-

ported by the Databus Interface module. 

“Crank Only”

 AKA “blind start” is similar to the “Tachless” settings however, it only makes one 

start attempt and does not monitor engine running conditions. This is useful for many “push-to-

start” vehicles

The system has outputs designed for arming and/or disarming a factory-equipped security system.  

These wires may be used instead to provide further system outputs, which are remotely operated 

by the controller or transmitter  These outputs are in addition to the 2nd channel and 3rd channel 

outputs As shown in the programming assignment, the arm, disarm, channel 4 and channel 5 are 

programmable as various combinations.  For example, if the disarm output is needed, but not the 

arm output, then channel 4 may be made available for use.
