Using Your System
The transmitter buttons indicated in this guide correspond to the
standard transmitter configuration. Remember, this is not the only
way your transmitter may be set up.
You can activate, or arm, the system by pressing on your
transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a
short siren sound, or chirp, and see the lights flash once.
While the system is armed, the status LED will flash approximately
once per second, showing that the system is actively protecting
your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming and see the
status LED flashing in groups, refer to the Diagnostics section of
this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification.
The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically
(called passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive
arming, it will automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is
turned off. Whenever the system is in its 30-second passive-
arming countdown, the status LED will flash twice as fast as it
does when the system is armed. At the 30-second point, the siren
will chirp to indicate that the system is armed.
NOTE: Some faulty zones may prevent the system from passively arming.
(See Arming Diagnostics and Table of Zones sections of this guide.)
Additionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the passive arming
countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.
