MULTI-SPEED TACH PROGRAMMING (IF INSTALLED)

1.

In programming mode (page 3).

2. Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and press the 

LOCK 

and

UNLOCK 

buttons 

simultaneously 



 the parking lights will flash 4 times. At that point, release the brake pedal. 

3. Start the engine and allow the vehicle to reach regular engine idle speed. 
4. Once the engine is running at normal idle speed, press the brake pedal and keep it down until you hear the 

parking lights flash 5 times. 

5. Release the brake pedal 



the tach programming is now complete. 

Caution! – Tach jumper settings: 
Some new vehicles have a higher TACH voltage threshold, which would fall out of the normal TACH trigger 
circuit of the remote car starter. Changing the jumper to TACH Threshold HIGH will allow the module to 
properly detect the TACH signal. 

BUT

, if you are having trouble with the TACH, please call our tech support 

team. Problems requiring changing the TACH jumper settings are very rare.

RESETTING THE MODULE 

WARNING!

By resetting the module, all programmed values are erased 



 i.e.: tach, transmitter as well as 

programming options. The programming options are returned to their default values. 

1.

Enter programming Mode (page 3). 

2. Once having reached the programming mode, quickly press and release the brake pedal until the parking 

lights flash 8 times. 

BYPASS

Remote starters of this series have the ability to work in two way mode (D2D) with 

Xpresskit

 and

 ADS

 bypass 

modules. They also offer one way communication with 

Xpresskit, ADS

 and 

Fortin

 brand bypass modules. 

Note: 

For Hardware 5.0 and higher there can only be one bypass connected to the unit. 

NEW FEATURE – SMARTSTART™ 

When teamed up with a SmartStart

-compatible module, remote start features can be accessed using a 

smartphone. These features include lock/unlock, engine start/stop, trunk release, panic and alarm notifications. 
For alarm notifications, the Xpresskit

 bypass option (D2D) must be enabled. 

To use these features, connect the SmartStart

 module to the SmartStart

 port located at the back of the 

remote start module (see the wiring diagram). The SmartStart

 feature must be enabled using the 

programming options list found in this guide. 

PROGRAMMING MODE LOCKED FEATURE 

The programming mode locked feature is enabled after a successful initial remote start in EncryptR™ mode. 
When this feature is locked, unauthorized access to the following programming mode sub-menus through the 
hood pin or the PRG-1000 is denied. 

1.

Transmitter learning 

2.

Tachometer programming 

3.
