Using the system ➤ Arming the system To arm the system, press the button on the remote control. The siren in the vehicle will “chirp” once and the parking lights will flash once. If the power door locks have been connected, the doors will lock. The system will automatically check for errors when it arms. AUX If errors are found when arming: If an alarm trigger zone – such as a door, the trunk, the hood, or a sensor, was active at the time of arming, the system will “bypass”, or ignore, this trigger zone.
Alarm Responses The security system can generate two levels of alarm: Warn Away - Soft siren chirps and flashing parking lights. The purpose of Warn-Away is to warn a would-be thief next to your vehicle that the vehicle is protected, but in a manner that does not call attention to it from more than a few feet away. Full Alarm Trigger Sounds the siren at maximum volume and flashes the parking lights. The default duration of the Full Alarm is 30 seconds.
Note: Call the police immediately if you witness a crime in progress. ➤ Modified Arming Modes The Responder gives you an unprecedented level of control over how it will protect your car. “Normal arming” means that all the Responder security features are active automatically. You can turn some security features off on a one-time basis. Turning off the Warn Away response 1. Arm system 2. Press the button twice. 3. Press the button. AUX Now, slight impacts or vibrations will not trigger Warn-Away.
Sensor Silent Mode In this mode, a sensor cannot trigger the siren. All entry points (doors, hood, etc.) will still trigger the siren. AUX Press the button three times, and then press the button. Note: The next time you arm the system, it will function normally. ➤ Disarming the System AUX While the system is armed normally: • Press the button once. The siren in the vehicle will “chirp” twice, and the parking lights will flash.
High-Security Disarming If you want the Full Alarm response to stop without unlocking the doors, press the button. The system will re-arm and the current alarm response will reset. ➤ System override AUX To disarm the system without a remote control: You will need to use your Override Switch located on your systems control center (see diagram to left) to disarm the system. The Override Switch disarms the system only if you have the vehicle key. • Open the door. The alarm will sound.

AUX If the keypad lock is On, press keypad. , and then press to unlock the AUX Note: If the auto keypad lock feature is programmed On, the remote unlocks when the vehicle ignition is turned Off. The remote stays unlocked to allow time to exit and unload the vehicle, and then lock the doors with the remote.
Using the remote start Read this user guide, including the Warnings section at the beginning. Ensure that the vehicle is parked in the open air and not in a garage. To use your remote start to pre-warm or pre-cool your vehicle, remember to set the climate controls to the desired settings before shutting off the engine. ➤ Remote starting your vehicle Before using the remote start be sure the vehicle is parked in a safe area with proper ventilation.
➤ Manual transmission vehicles If the vehicle has manual transmission the proper steps must be followed before leaving the parked vehicle or the remote start feature is disabled. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. Put the transmission in neutral. Press on the vehicle’s foot brake. Apply the emergency brake. Release the vehicle’s foot brake. Note: Pressing the brake again after this step will disable the remote start feature. Within 15 seconds activate the remote start from the remote.
➤ Timer mode To activate the runtime of the vehicles engine during remote start: Important: Use Timer Mode in open areas only. Never start and run the vehicle in an enclosed space such as a garage or carport. To activate timer mode with an automatic transmission: AUX 1. 2. 3. Remote start the vehicle by pressing twice and then press The parking lights flash rapidly four times. After 1 second the car starts and the Timer Mode runs for the specified time period.
Note: The Bitwriter can change the amount of times the remote start activates and, it can change the intervals between activations in timer mode. ➤ Turbo timer mode Turbo timer mode keeps the engine running after arriving at your destination for a programmable period of 1, 3, 5 or 10 minutes. This allows the system’s timer to conveniently cool down the turbo after you have left the vehicle. To activate Turbo Timer Mode with an automatic transmission: 1.
does not remote start until the MTS sequence is re-initiated. Note: An optional push button can be hard wired to the (-) activation input (H1/10) on the remote start. This allows the user to activate the turbo timer without having to use the remote. When the vehicle is running follow the procedures listed above, but instead of pressing the remote, press the push button the appropriate number of times to activate the remote start (factory setting is for 1 pulse). Turn off the ignition and exit the vehicle.
2. Exit the vehicle and press the button on the remote (the vehicle shuts down when locking). Press the button on the remote 3 times and then press the button. The parking lights flash 5 times fast to confirm the remote is in Smart Start mode. AUX 3. AUX The vehicle remote starts when the cabin temperature reaches the programmed threshold, or when the battery reaches the programmed voltage.
➤ 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 for occasions when you wish 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, press and release on the transmitter. Then wait a few seconds. 2. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position (The engine will stay running).
Safety features This system has several important safety features to ensure proper operation of the motor and prevent accidental damage to the engine or its components. ➤ 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.
Diagnostics The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors connected to it. It is designed to detect any faulty switches and sensors and prevent them from disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will also record and report any triggers that occurred during your absence. Refer to System Status Chirps and Table of Zones sections of this guide for diagnostic information.
➤ Disarming Extra chirps heard when disarming the system are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard when disarming the system, then the security system was triggered in your absence. If five chirps are heard when disarming the system, the system was triggered so many times that the Nuisance Protection® Circuitry has bypassed the intended zone. In either case, the status LED will indicate which zone was involved (see Table of Zones).
Zone Description 1 Trunk Pin 2 Instant trigger: a heavier impact detected by the shock sensor 3 Door switch trigger 4 Instant trigger: For optional sensors 5 Ignition trigger 6 Hood Pin Dealer installed options ➤ Interpreting zone diagnostics Warn Away responses are not reported by arming or disarming diagnostics. If you receive a Bypass notification when arming or a Tamper Alert notification when disarming, look at the LED.
interpret those triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, NPC ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch (along with any other sensors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes. If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the security system while it is being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over. This ensures that a sensor that is continually being triggered will remain bypassed. The vehicle doors are protected by NPC differently.
Owner recognition Owner Recognition lets up to four users of the system have unique settings that meet their specific needs. It is almost like having four separate alarms in your vehicle, one for each user. This feature is only available to authorized dealers using the Bitwriter or Bitwriter 2 program tool. Rapid resume logic This Directed system will store its current state to non-volatile memory. If power is lost and then reconnected the system will recall the stored state from memory.
Power saver mode Your system will automatically enter Power Saver Mode while armed or in Valet Mode, after a period of time in which no operation has been performed. This lowers the current draw on the vehicle’s battery. Power Saver Mode takes over under the following conditions: Power Saver when the system is armed: After the system has been armed for 24 hours the LED will flash at half its normal rate, decreasing the system’s current draw.
Programming options Your system has many custom programmable options. Some may require installation labor. Ask your authorized dealer for details. The following is a list of the programmable options, with the factory settings in Bold.
• how long a security system can sound before it is considered a nuisance. If your installer is programming the security system with the Directed Bitwriter®, the full triggered response can be programmed for any duration ranging from 1 to 180 seconds. • Siren tones and chirp volume: The output of the Revenger™Soft Chirp™ siren consists of six different tones in sequence. Any of these tones can be eliminated by a dealer, resulting in a unique, easily identifiable siren sound.
Security & convenience expansions Listed below are some of the many expansion options available. Please consult your dealer for a complete explanation of all the options available to you. Audio Sensor: Metal on glass, glass cracking, and breaking glass produce distinctive acoustic signatures. The 506T audio sensor uses a microphone to pick up sounds, then analyzes them with proprietary acoustic software to determine if the glass has been struck.
Power Window Control: Automatic power window control is provided with the 529T and 530T systems. These can operate power windows, and can roll them up automatically when the system is armed, roll them down, or both up and down. Ultrasonic Cabin Sensor: Using the 509U Ultrasonic cabin sensor provides a field of protection inside the car to protect your belongings.
