CONFIRMATIONS
Sent by vehicle
Confirmations sent by the vehicle are generated as soon as a command is received by the starter module. Your
remote starter will always confirm that the command has been received, either by sounding the horn, siren or
by flashing the parking lights.
Parking light confirmation is mandatory while horn or siren confirmations are optional (programmable) and may
require additional connections and equipment during installation.
Emitted by the transmitter
The transmitter emits three kind of confirmations: audible (piezo), visual (LCD display) and physical (vibration);
these confirmations are listed further in this guide. After the confirmation signals have been emitted, the
transmitter, only if used with the 4204, will change to power saving mode in order to reduce battery
consumption.
Note that the communication between the vehicle and the transmitter operates only in one-way. This is why it is
recommended to wait for the confirmation before sending another command. Otherwise, the vehicle and the
transmitter will transmit at the same time and block the requested command as well as the returned
confirmation
The following diagram shows the usefulness of each segment of the display. Note that the bold characters are
referring to the transmitter used with the 5204 module only.
Display confirmations will be visible for 4
seconds. The confirmations, generated by the
vehicle are emitted only once after the control
module sends it.
Confirmations emitted by the transmitter can be
neutralized by radio interferences or
electromagnetic signals emitted by electronic
devices nearby.
If you don't receive any confirmation from
where you're standing, move away from
electronic devices and press the "status"
command; the module will inform you of the
door lock, alarm (5204 only) and engine status.
Out of range
If the vehicle is out of range, the transmitter will emit a 5 seconds soft chirp to indicate that the command hasn’t
been received by neither the module nor the transmitter.
As for the 5204, the transmitter sends a command every hour in order to determine if it is possible to establish a
communication with the vehicle. After two communications without answer, the transmitter vibrates twice to
inform you that the vehicle is out of range.
When the communication is re-established, the transmitter vibrates to inform you of the vehicle status.
