been left ajar when leaving the vehicle. Forced passive arming ensures that the security
system will be armed in every situation.
Note: When the system passively arms after one hour, the entry point that has been
left open, and anything connected to the same zone, is bypassed and cannot
trigger the system. However, the remaining inputs to the system are fully operational.
Automatic Engine Disable (AED) on or off: The purpose of this feature is to protect the
vehicle from being stolen at all times, regardless of whether or not the alarm is armed. If
AED is programmed on, the starter of the vehicle will be disabled 30 seconds after the
ignition is turned off. Once the key is turned off, the LED will flash slowly (one-half its normal
armed rate) to indicate the AED arming cycle. Thirty seconds later, the starter of the vehicle
will be disabled. To start the car, it will be necessary to disarm the system with the
transmitter. It is also possible to disarm the AED feature by turning the ignition key to the
RUN position and pressing the Valet button the programmed number of times. AED is
disabled when the system is in Valet Mode.
Note: This feature will only function if the Failsafe
®
Starter Kill relay has been installed.
Comfort closure: Windows will close upon locking the vehicle.
Full trigger response 30 or 60 seconds: This determines how long the full triggered sequence
lasts. Some states have laws regulating how long a security system can sound before it is
considered a nuisance. If your installer is programming the security system with the
programming tool, the full triggered response can be programmed for any duration ranging
from 1 to 180 seconds.
Nuisance Prevention

Circuitry on or off: Please refer to the NPC
®
section of this manual for a
complete explanation of how NPC
®
operates. If NPC
®
is programmed off, the security system
will respond to inputs from any sensor indefinitely.
Note: Because many states have laws regulating security systems,
programming NPC
®
off may cause your system to violate state laws.
Progressive door trigger on or off: When the system is armed and a door is opened, the
system responds with ten chirps prior to beginning the full triggered sequence. If an instant
trigger is desired, the progressive door trigger can be programmed off.
Valet pulse count: The number of presses of the Valet button required to disarm the security
system, AED, or the VRS
®
system can be programmed from one to five presses. The default
setting is one press.
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 your dealer, resulting in
a unique, easily identifiable siren sound. The siren chirps can be either full volume or six
decibels quieter than the full alarm blast.
