Remote controlled sensor adjustments
Due to ever-changing conditions, all alarms require periodic fine-tuning of their sensors.
With other alarms, this requires repeated trips back to the dealer. But IntelliVoice-IQ lets you
can adjust sensitivity electronically without even knowing where the sensor is mounted! If
the setting(s) of the Proximity Sensor are either too sensitive or not sensitive enough, you
may individually test and adjust the settings of each zone with the following procedure:
1. Disarm the system with the remote control, open the driver’s window, then select the
sensor zone you wish to adjust:
a. Interior zone: Transmit channel 11 (LevelShift twice, then button 3).
b. Exterior zone: Transmit channel 12 (LevelShift twice, then button 4).
2. To test the current sensitivity setting:
a. Interior zone: Lean into the passenger compartment. You will hear a chirp when
the zone detects your presence. Ideally, it should chirp when you lean over the
driver’s seat, but remain silent when you lean toward the window.
b. Exterior zone: Lean toward the driver’s window. You will hear a chirp when the
zone detects your presence. Ideally, it should only chirp when you are moving
within one foot of the vehicle.
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 32 sensitivity levels for the Proximity Sensor’s interior zone; 16
for the less critical warning zone.
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 one or both sensor zones
Transmitting channel 10 within 10 seconds after arming the system overrides the exterior
warning zone of the system’s Proximity Sensor (4 parking light flashes of the parking
lights to confirm the warning zone override). This is useful when you must park in an
area with heavy pedestrian traffic. Transmitting channel 10 again within the 10-second
period will override both sensor zones when you must leave a passenger or pet in the
vehicle. The sensor zones are automatically restored the next time you arm the system.
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 17-21.)
