Using Your System

Remote Start

This feature allows you to remotely start and run your vehicle for a programmable period of time. This makes it possible to warm up the engine, as well as adjust the interior temperature of the vehicle with the climate control system. If interior heating or cooling is desired, the climate controls must be preset, and the fan blower must be set to the desired level prior to remote starting the vehicle.

Important! (1) Never remotely start the vehicle with the vehicle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with the key in the ignition.

For instructions on how to activate/deactive your remote start system, refer to the SmartStart User's guide.

When you are ready to drive the vehicle:

1. Insert the ignition key and turn it to the ON (not the START) position.

2. Press the brake pedal. The remote start system shuts down but the motor continues to run because the ignition has been turned on.

The vehicle now operates as usual.

Note: If the brake pedal is pressed before the key is in the ON position, the engine will shut down.

While the vehicle is running during remote start operation, the system monitors the vehicle and automatically shuts down the engine if the system receives any of the following Shut-down inputs:

2 © 2010 Directed Electronics. All rights reserved.

• The brake pedal is pressed.

• The hood is opened.

• The shutdown toggle switch is put into the OFF position

• The pre-programmed run time has elapsed.

• The procedure to activate remote start is repeated.

Valet Take-Over

The Valet Take-Over feature allows the vehicle to remain running after the key has been removed from the ignition. This feature is useful if you want to exit and lock the vehicle for short periods of time, but would like to leave the motor running and the climate controls on.

To perform Valet Take-Over:

1. Before turning off the engine, send Remote Start command from your SmartStart application.

2. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position (The engine will stay running).

3. The engine will run until the pre-programmed time elapses or a shut-down input is received. (See the previous section for a complete list of shut-down inputs.)

Note: This feature will not work if the brake pedal is being pressed.

Starter Anti-Grind Circuitry

Whenever the vehicle is remote started, advanced anti-grind circuitry prevents the starter from engaging, even if the key is turned to the start position. This prevents damage to the starter motor if the key is turned to the start position during remote start operation.

Note: Anti-grind circuitry only works when the remote start system is op er at ing the motor and the optional relay is installed.

Disabling the Remote Start system

This feature allows your system's remote start unit to be temporarily disabled to prevent the vehicle from being remote started accidentally.

This feature is useful if the vehicle is being serviced or stored in an enclosed area. To disable the remote start, move the shutdown toggle switch to the OFF position. The switch can be installed in a location of your choice. Check with your installer for recommended locations.

Location Of Shutdown Switch_________________________

Programming options

Programming options control your system’s normal, operational set-up.

Most options do not require additional parts, but some may require installation labor. See your authorized Directed dealer for more details.

The following is a list of the programmable options, with the factory settings in bold.

• 12, 24, or 60 minute run time. Your system can be programmed to allow the vehicle to run for 12, 24, or 60 minutes when remote started. Can be set up to minute increments by your installer.

• Parking lights flashing or constant. Your system can be programmed to flash or turn on the parking lights constantly during the entire remote start operation.

Installation Points

Tach Learning

To learn the tach signal:

1. Start the vehicle with the key.

2. Within 5 seconds, press and hold the Valet button.

3. After 3 seconds the LED will light constant when the tach signal is learned.

4. Release the Valet button.

Virtual Tach

Note: Virtual tach is not recommended for diesel trucks

To program Virtual Tach:

1. After the install is complete, remote start the car.

2. If the car does not start on the first attempt, let the remote start attempt again.

3. Once the car starts, let it run until the parking lights come on.

4. When the parking lights come on, shut off the remote start with the remote - that’s it! Virtual Tach is programmed.

Virtual Tach handles disengaging the starter motor during remote starting – it does not address over-rev. If the customer wants to have the over-rev protection capability, the tach wire must be connected. This may involve more installation shop charges than initially quoted.

Important: If the Virtual Tach mode over cranks or doesn't crank the vehicle long enough to start and run the car, use the Bitwriter to add or subtract the starter output time. You can adjust the output time in increments of 50msec of the learned time using the Bitwriter.

Reset and Deletion

If a feature/virtual tach needs to be reset or the remote controls need to be deleted, use the following procedure.

1. Turn the ignition to the ON position (The heavy gauge pink wire must be connected).

2. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Valet button: 2 times if you want to delete remotes, 3 times to reset features or 4 times to reset virtual tach. These features are described next.

Delete remotes: This feature erases all remotes from the memory of the system. This is useful in cases when a customer’s remote is lost or stolen.

Note: This does not reset the programmed features of the system or reset the Virtual Tach setting.

Reset Features: This resets all features of the system to the factory default settings.

Note: This feature does not delete the remotes from the system or reset the Virtual Tach setting

Virtual Tach Reset: Deletes all previously learned values for Virtual Tach, and on the next remote start sequence the unit begins virtual tach initialization.

Note: The “Zap” feature on the Bitwriter does not reset the Virtual tach setting.

3. Once you have selected the function step, press the Valet button once more and hold it. The LED flashes and the horn honks to confirm the selected functional step. Do not release the Valet button

4. While holding the Valet button, Activate remote start input. When the white/ blue H1/4 is pulsed, the horn sounds to confirm the reset.*

* If using the optional RF kit p/n: 9474T (1-way remote and receiver), press the button on the remote to reset the features.

5. Once the feature is reset, release the Valet button.
