TRIGGER INPUT
Your remote starter is equipped with a negative trigger (pulse) input.
This input can be connected to another remote control device or to an AstroStart RTS-2
timer output (optional), part no. 310-903-502.
If this input is connected, consult this device's manual or ask your technician which
command controls the Start/Stop function.
The Start/Stop commands received on this input are ignored while the engine is running on a
remote start.
All Start/Stop functions controlled by this input behave in the same way as functions controlled by remote.
CONTINUOUS MODE (RS-613 – RS- 711XR ONLY)
