Remote controlled sensor adjustments
Due to ever-changing conditions, all alarms require periodic fine-tuning of their sensors.
An improperly adjusted sensor is the most common cause of false alarms. With other alarms,
this requires repeated trips back to the dealer. Not so with IntelliGuard 700-IQ. You can
adjust sensitivity electronically without tools and without even knowing where the sensor
is mounted! If the setting(s) of the Piezo Sensor is either too sensitive or not sensitive
enough, you may individually test and adjust the settings of each zone. To adjust the
Piezo Sensor, just use the following procedure:
1. Disarm the system, then select the sensor zone you wish to adjust:
a. Primary zone: Transmit channel 11 (LevelShift twice, then button 3).
b. Warning zone: Transmit channel 12 (LevelShift twice, then button 4).
2. To test the current sensitivity setting:
a. Primary zone: Firmly “thump” the window pillar with the side of your fist. You
will hear a chirp to confirm activation of the primary zone.
b. Warning zone: “Thump” the window pillar with somewhat less force. A chirp
will confirm activation of the warning zone.
3. If you are not satisfied with the detection level and wish to increase sensitivity, press
button 2 on your remote control. To decrease it, press button 4. Each time you
increase sensitivity, the siren will chirp in higher and higher pitched tones to confirm
the higher sensitivity setting. Conversely, lower and lower tones confirm each
sensitivity decrease. Two normal tone chirps indicate minimum and maximum
settings. There are 16 sensitivity levels for each of the two sensing zones.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until you are satisfied with the sensitivity, then press button 1
to record the new sensitivity setting and exit the sensor test/adjust mode (you’ll hear
three chirps to confirm exit). You may now either repeat steps 1–4 for the other
sensor zone, or press button 1 again to arm the system.
Sound complicated? It really isn’t, there’s just a lot of explanation of what’s happening
with each step. All you really have to do is the actions noted in bold type. Give it a try.
Remote controlled override of optional sensor #2
If you have an optional sensor, transmitting channel 10 within 10 seconds after arming
the system will override the optional sensor. For instance, if you have an optional
Proximity Sensor that picks up any movement inside the passenger compartment, you
may use channel 10 to turn it off for those times when you must leave your pet or a
passenger in the vehicle. Remote override of the optional sensor #2 is confirmed with
four flashes of the parking lights.
FACT™— False Alarm Control and Test
With FACT, you’ll never experience repeated false alarms. If the MultiSound Medallion
Siren goes off, DO NOT remotely disarm the system; allow it to run for the full siren
duration. Before sounding the siren a second time, the system automatically checks for
another activated trigger to verify that an intrusion is in progress. Should the siren sound
again, you will know for sure that someone is tampering with your vehicle. (To disable
FACT, see
User-selectable features
on pages 20-24.)
