Module Programming
Refer to the LED Diagnostics section on page 10 for more information and for troubleshooting purposes.
Important
Make all the required connections to the vehicle, as described in the wiring diagram(s) found in this guide, and double check to
ensure everything is correct prior to moving onto the next step.
Note: Before connecting either the XL202 or SmartStart module to DBALL, it is important to ensure that the proper feature and
function programming is selected using XpressVIP (version 4.5 or higher). Visit www.xpresskit.com to download the latest version
of the application.
Warning! To take advantage of advanced features, you must use XpressVIP 4.5 or higher. Using version 2.9 or 3.1 will limit
available functions and features.
1. Connect the interface module to your computer using the XKLoader.
2. Open an Internet Explorer browser (version 6 or higher), and go to www.xpresskit.com. The detail of the platform and firmware
that is currently saved on the interface module will be indicated in the top left corner of the page.
3. Select the year, make and model of the vehicle; the page will refresh to display the compatible firmware.
4. In the search result page, select one of the available install options (config for RSR, RXT or Standard install), and follow the
instructions provided on the screen.
5. Once you have configured your options, click on the FLASH button to upload the firmware onto the interface module.
6. The following message will be displayed when the upload is completed:
“The flashing is successfully completed. You may now unplug the kit.”
You can now proceed with the programming instructions below.
SmartStart Installation
The DBALL module must be disconnected from any power source before SmartStart can be
connected to it. Failing to do so could damage DBALL.
a. To ensure that the D2D communication between SmartStart and DBALL works properly, the
Gray wire must be connected to a ground source (Rev B SmartStart), and the Brown or Blue
loop must be cut (Rev A SmartStart).
b. Do NOT connect the 2-pin harness (on SmartStart). Power and ground will be provided by
the DBALL D2D connector.
Connect SmartStart to DBALL using the D2D port.

The OEM alarm w ill not be controlled by DBALL upon remote start. No disarm or arm command w ill be
executed at the beginning or end of the sequence; it must be controlled by the Remote Starter.
Smart OEM Alarm Control w ill behave like a standard Safelock feature on a remote starter. It w ill unlock at the
beginning of the sequence, and relock after start and shutdow n.
Smart OEM Alarm Control w ill synchronize w ith the OEM alarm so that it w ill disarm and rearm the vehicle in
the remote start sequence, only w hen required. The reason for this is, factory alarm control must often be
done by lock or unlock operation. This could create unnecessary actions on door lock modules, such as the
horn to honk. When possible, Smart OEM Alarm Control w ill monitor the alarm and door lock status to detect if
the disarm or rearm is required. If the vehicle is unlocked or is not equipped w ith factory alarm, the
disarm/rearm w ill not be executed. Smart OEM Alarm Control w ill also monitor the remote starter actions so
that the factory alarm control is not done tw ice. A remote starter, for w hich the Safelock feature is active,
w ill w ork perfectly w ith this option and w ill make it invisible to the user.
