Feature Descriptions
The features of the system are described below. Features that have additional settings that can be
selected only when programming with the 998T Bitwriter
®
are indicated by the following

Menu #1 - Basic Features
1-1 ACTIVE/PASSIVE ARMING: When active arming is selected, the system will only arm when
the transmitter is used. When set to passive, the system will arm automatically 30 seconds after the
last door is closed. To alert the consumer of passive arming, the siren will chirp 20 seconds after the
door is closed. This provides the consumer with an audible indication prior to the system actually
arming. At the 30 second mark, the system will arm but the siren will not chirp.
1-2 CHIRPS ON/OFF: This feature controls the chirps that confirm the arming and disarming of
the system.
1-3 IGNITION CONTROLLED DOOR LOCK ON/OFF: When turned on, the doors will lock
three seconds after the ignition is turned on, if the doors are closed.
1-4 IGNITION CONTROLLED DOOR UNLOCK ON/OFF: When turned on, the doors will
unlock when the ignition is turned off.
1-5 ACTIVE/PASSIVE LOCKING: If passive arming is selected in menu item 1-1, then the system
can be programmed to either lock the doors when passive arming occurs, or only lock the doors when
the system is armed via the transmitter. Active locking means the system will not lock the doors when
it passively arms. Passive locking means that the system will lock the doors when it passively arms.

NO
OTTEE: Remember, when passive arming is selected, the unit will chirp 20 seconds after the last door is
closed. The system does not actually arm or lock the doors until 30 seconds after the door has been
closed.
1-6 PANIC WITH IGNITION ON: This step controls whether or not the Panic Mode is available
with the ignition on. In some states, there are laws prohibiting a siren from sounding in a moving
vehicle. This feature makes the system compliant with these regulations.
1-7 DOOR LOCK PULSE DURATION: Some European vehicles, such as Mercedes-Benz and
Audi, require longer lock and unlock pulses to operate the vacuum pump. Programming the system
to provide 3.5 second pulses, will accommodate the door lock interface in these vehicles. The default
setting is 0.8 second door lock pulses. For some vehicles a 0.4 second pulse duration is required, this
duration is required for some vehicles to prevent the windows from moving.
