CHANNEL 2 OUTPUT:
This system provides an additional hardwire remote output to control an assortment of optional upgrades.
This output is an independent channel from the transmitter, and is controlled by button #2 on the transmitter.
It is a delayed ground pulse (300 mA maximum), and can be used to control:
• Optional trunk release relay AS-9256
• Optional remote starter AS-9075
• Optional window roll up AS-9153
CHANNEL 3 OUTPUT (Transmitter Only):
The transmitters included in this alarm incorporate an additional independent 3rd radio channel. Although the
alarm module will only respond to 2 channels, the 3rd radio channel can be programmed to an optional garage
door interface (AS-9154).
The AS-9154 has its own on-board programmable receiver and is designed to operate with most existing
automatic garage door openers.
In addition, the garage door interface receiver can be directly wired into the vehicle to offer a third remote control
option. Since this is a set of relay contacts, the receiver can be used to provide a selectable positive or negative
pulse.
TRANSMITTER PROGRAMMING:
The transmitters included in this kit have been programmed at the factory for the Channel 1 (arm, disarm and
panic function) only. Any additional functions of the system (Channels 2 and 3) must be programmed at the
time of installation. These functions can be assigned to transmitter button number 2 or a simultaneous press
of both buttons 1 and 2.
Refer to the transmitter programming guide, included in this package, for more details regarding transmitter
button assignments and system functions.
INSTALLATION OF MAJOR COMPONENTS:
CONTROL MODULE:
Select a mounting location inside the passenger compartment (up behind the dash) and secure using two screws
provided.
The control module can also be secured in place using cable ties.
Do not mount the control module in the engine compartment, as it is not waterproof. You should also avoid
mounting the unit directly onto factory installed electronic components. These components may cause RF
interference, which can result in poor transmitter range or intermittent operation.
SIREN:
Select a mounting location in the engine compartment that is well protected from access below the vehicle. Avoid
areas near high heat components or moving parts within the engine compartment. To prevent water retention,
the flared, or opened end, of the siren must be pointed downward when mounted. Mount the siren to the selected
location using the screws and bracket provided.
HOOD OR TRUNK PIN SWITCH:
A pin switch is included for use in protecting the hood or trunk (or hatchback) of the vehicle.
The switch must always be mounted to a grounded, metal surface of the vehicle. It is important to select a location
where water cannot flow or collect and to avoid all drip “gutters” on hood and trunk fender walls. Choose locations
that are protected by rubber gaskets when the hood or trunk lid is closed.
The pin switch can be mounted using the bracket provided or direct mounted by drilling a 9/32" diameter
mounting hole.
Keep in mind that when properly mounted, the plunger of the pin switch should depress at least 1/4" when the
hood or trunk lid is closed.
