INSTALLATION CAUTIONS
The white plug on the 3-way cable adapter
is
ONLY
for use with digital platforms such as
DBALL2, DBALL2PRo, 4X10 and 5X10.
For some older analog systems with combined
4-pin ESP/D2D ports, you
CANNOT
use an inter-
face module in D2D mode when using a Smart-
Start module. You must use W2W on the bypass
module.
DO NOT
connect the black 3-pin ESP connector
to white Door Lock port on Directed systems.
There should
NEVER
be more than one data plug
connected from the 3-way cable adapter.

Installation Procedure
This product is compatible with most Directed dig-
ital systems, analog systems with ESP2/D2D data
ports, and many Autostart and AstroStart systems
with pager ports and D2D ports.
Please read the following before proceeding.
1.
Customer Information required:
• Record the customer information request-
ed in step 4a of this procedure. The mod-
ule Air ID # is provided on a sticker which
should be affixed to the space provided in
the user’s guide.
This information is required for final verifi-
cation/activation of the VSM300/350 or
DSM300/350.
2.
Installation Points:
• Install and test the security/remote start
or digital system first using the associated
guides and wiring diagram. When add-
ing SmartStart to an existing system, veri-
fy it is fully functional before installing the
SmartStart module.
• Mount the SmartStart module as high as
possible in the vehicle with the engraved
side facing upward (for all devices).
Mount with minimal obstructions that can
affect communications and within reach
of the main Directed system using the pro-
vided cables (do not extend).
The module's signal strength (RSSI) can be viewed in the
activation portal after a successful transmission test.
-50 to -90 dB
-91 to -100 dB
> -100 dB
= good signal strength
= borderline/inconsistent signal strength
= weak, insufficient signal strength
