PRE-INSTALLATION NOTES:
PASSIVE / ACTIVE ARMING SELECTION:
This alarm can be programmed to operate as either a “PASSIVE” or “ACTIVE” arming security system.
As a “Passive” alarm, the system will automatically arm itself approximately 30 seconds after the ignition key is turned
off, one door is opened, then all vehicle doors are closed, (arming is suspended until the last door is closed). This
feature protects the vehicle in the event you forget to arm the system using the keychain transmitter.
This system is shipped in the passive mode, therefore no modifications are required to make the system operate
as a “Passive” alarm.
As an “Active” alarm, the system can only be armed using the keychain transmitter. There will be no backup
automatic arming.
Caution: Be certain the module is disconnected from the main wiring harness before attempting to cut the wire
loops. This will prevent shorting of the control module and any damage to the vehicle.
To make the system operate as an “Active” alarm, open the access door located in the module's case,
and cut the small Black Loop Wire.
VOLTAGE SENSE / HARDWIRE SELECTION:
This alarm can be wired to operate as a Voltage Sensing or a Hardwire system.
As a voltage sensing system, the alarm will trigger any time an entry point that illuminates a courtesy light is opened.
The system is shipped in the voltage sensing mode, therefore, no modifications are required to make this system
a voltage sensing alarm.
As a hardwire system, the alarm will trigger any time a door, hood, trunk, etc. is opened, by wiring directly to the
switches. This means that if the courtesy light is burned out, or the courtesy light fuse is blown, the alarm will continue
to protect all points of entry.
Caution: Be certain the module is disconnected from the main wiring harness before attempting to cut the wire
loops. This will prevent shorting of the control module and any damage to the vehicle.
To make this system operate as a hardwire alarm, open the access door located in the module's case,
and cut the small Green Loop Wire.
NOTE: When “Passive Arming” and “Voltage Sensing” are selected, you must hardwire the driver’s door pin switch
or passive arming will not be initiated.
STARTER DISABLE:
This system provides an output to control an optional starter cut relay (not included).
When this option is installed, any time the system is armed, the vehicles starting circuit is inoperable.
CHANNEL 2 OUTPUT:
This system provides an additional hardwire remote output to control an assortment of optional upgrades.
This output is an independent channel from the transmitter and is controlled by button #2 on the transmitter. It is
a delayed ground pulse (300 mA maximum), and can be used to control:
l
Optional trunk release relay AS-9256
l
Optional remote starter AS-9075
l
Optional window roll up AS-9153
CHANNEL 3 : (TRANSMITTER ONLY)
The transmitters included in this alarm incorporate an additional independent 3rd radio channel. Although the alarm
module will only respond to 2 channels, the 3rd radio channel can be programmed to an option garage door interface
(AS-9154). The AS-9154 has its own on-board programmable receiver and is designed to operate with most existing
automatic garage door openers.
