OTHER COMMANDS
ANTITHEFT (CIRCUIT DISABLER)
Programmable as Active or Inactive during installation.
Your Remote Starter is equipped with an Antitheft system. This system consists of an output that controls a relay that cuts all
circuits required to operate your vehicle (optional connection).
“PASSIVE ARMING» TYPE ANTITHEFT
This type of Antitheft system arms automatically when ignition key is turned from RUN to OFF and remains OFF for one
minute. It can also be armed manually by sending a “Lock” command (unless ignition key is in RUN position).
DISARMING : Antitheft system is disarmed for one minute when you send “Unlock” command.
If ignition key is not turned to ‘RUN’ position within one minute, system automatically rearms, thus preventing an intruder
from starting your vehicle, even with ignition key. The indicator light (optional) blinks rapidly during rearming, and then
continuously when antitheft system is armed.
