Installation Guide 

 

 

Note: For vehicles that require the ignition to be turned ON to activate the brake, follow these 

steps:  

a.

 

After flashing the hood, turn the ignition ON; The parking lights will turn OFF 

b.

 

After 4 seconds the parking lights will turn ON and then press the brake. 

Entering Programming Options 

1)

 

Enter programming mode (page-17) 

 the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 seconds.  

2)

 

Before the lights go out, press and hold the brake pedal and then press one of the following 

buttons: 

i)

 

 ------------------------------------------------ ----------- to access mode 1; 

ii)

 

 

 -------------------------------------------- --------------- to access mode 2;  

iii)

 

 ---------------------------------------------- ------------- to access mode 3; 

iv)

 

  -------------------------------------------------------------- to access mode 4. 

3)

 

The siren will chirp oncetwice, three or four times to confirm entry into a mode. 

4)

 

Release the brake pedal. 

5)

 

Once the desired mode has been selected, the unit will fall (by default) into function #1 of that 

mode; you can now select the option you want in function 1. Once this option has been 

chosen, the parking lights will flash one, two, three or four times to confirm your chosen 

option. You can not jump over the Function! The unit will move on to function 2 of the 

mode selected, and so on.    

i)

 

  ------------------------------------------------------------ for Option 1, 

ii)

 

  ------------------------------------------------------------- for Option 2, 

iii)

 

  ------------------------------------------------------------- for Option 3; 

iv)

 

 --------------------------------------------------------------- for Option 4. 

Programming Options 

Please refer to the Quick Installation Guide for more information on programming options. 

Virtual Tach System 

Virtual Tach System combines the latest microcontroller technology and a complex algorithm that 

took years to develop. VTS is able to effectively monitor the engine starting sequence and release 

the starter at the right time without physically connecting the tach wire to the remote starter. The 

VTS constantly monitors the data and readjusts itself automatically in order to maximize its 

capability to start the engine properly in any weather or deteriorating battery condition  

Note: Virtual Tach System is only available in automatic transmission. 

Optional Time Delay Adjustment in Virtual Tach System  

Follow these steps to program crank time adjustment, if needed: 

1.

 

Enter programming mode (page-17)  

 the parking lights will stay on for up to 20 

seconds.  

2.

 

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

buttons simultaneously 

 Siren will chirps 4 times. Do not release the brake pedal.
