1.  Place your VSM50BTP1 system in discovery mode by 

holding down the pairing button on the module until 

the LED turns blue (pairing button is the one furthest 

away from the LED)

2.  Open your phone’s Bluetooth menu, make sure Blue-

tooth is turned on. Look for your VSM50BTP1 de-

vice name on the list of available Bluetooth devices 

(SmartStartBT-xxxx). Tap on the device name to pair 

your phone to it. The blue LED on your VSM50BTP1 

module begins flashing quickly when it connects to 

your phone at the end of the pairing process, then 

turns solid blue to indicate successful connection. 

3.  Open your SmartStart app, then go to More/Settings 

and turn on the Bluetooth switch at the bottom of that 

page.

4.  The app automatically navigates to the Cars tab so 

you can program your VSM50BTP1 system to the 

app. There are two ways to do this, depending on 

whether you have the VSM50BTP1 as a standalone 

system (mode 1) or added to an existing full Viper 

SmartStart system (mode 2). Follow the appropriate 

directions below:

a. Mode 1 (VSM50BTP1-only): On the Cars tab, 

tap the “Add a SmartStart BT system” button. The 

app pops up the name of your connected device 

(SmartStartBT-xxxx). Select the device you want to 

add to the app, then use the editing functions to 

add your vehicle name and a picture. If you have 

more than one VSM50BTP1 system to add to the 

app, repeat these steps for each system that ap-

pears on the device list. 

b. Mode 2 (VSM50BTP1 added to full Viper Smart-

Start system): Log in to your Viper SmartStart ac-

count at More/Settings/SmartStart Login page. 

After you are logged in, go to the Cars tab and 

personalize your vehicle list with names and pic-

tures. Then select the Cars detail page and use the 

“Add SmartStart BT” to associate your VSM50B-

TP1 system with the vehicle it is installed in.

c.  Use the buttons provided to Enable or Disable Pas-

sive Locking and for setting the Lock and Unlock 

thresholds for your SmartStart Bluetooth system.
