Clarion MS5500 Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
Remote Transmitter Layout
Each MS5500 system comes with 2 multifunction Remote Transmitters used to control nearly all
of the system’s features.
Each time a transmitter button is pressed, the LED will flash to indicate that a transmission is
taking place.
The Remote Transmitters may be used in one of three operating modes: Ungo Standard Mode,
Convenience Mode, and Driver Door Priority Mode.
Ungo Standard Mode (default)
The MS5500 system is pre-programmed to operate in the Ungo Standard Mode. For ease of
understanding, any references made in this manual to the Remote Transmitter, are assuming that
the Transmitter Operating Mode is set to Ungo Standard Mode, unless otherwise stated.
Button 1 Arms and Disarms the system. This Button also locks and unlocks the doors when the
system is in Valet Mode.
Button 2 controls the system’s Auxiliary Function 1, which is normally used for activating a car’s
electric trunk release.
When Button 1 and 2 are pressed together, the system will Arm or Disarm silently (without chirp
confirmation).
As an option, your installer can set system to alwaysarm without chirp confirmation. If this is done, then pressing
Buttons 1 and 2 together will Arm or Disarm the system with chirp confirmation.
The Mode Button will change the function of Buttons 1 and 2 each time it is pressed, allowing
Buttons 1 and 2 to control the system’s Auxiliary Function Outputs.
Note also that the LED on the transmitter changes color each time the Mode Button is pressed
to indicate the current function of Buttons 1 and 2. The LED will stay on for 5 seconds, then turn
off, returning Buttons 1 and 2 to their default settings.
It is also possible to set individual Remote Transmitters to arm and disarm the system using any
of the Transmitters function Buttons, which is extremely useful when a Transmitter is used to
control multiple systems. See Adding a Remote Transmitter into the System.
