ARMING AND DISARMING WITH THE OEM TRANSMITTER
When connected to the vehicle’s databus, the interface module can be armed and disarmed with the OEM keyless entry
transmitter by pressing the lock and unlock buttons, respectively.
SENSOR SHUNT AND TRUNK TRIGGER BYPASS WITH THE OEM TRANSMITTER
The trunk trigger and on-board shock sensor are bypassed when the trunk release button is pressed on the OEM
transmitter, allowing trunk access while the rest of the vehicle’s security system remains armed. This shunt
feature will continue until 5 seconds after the trunk has been closed, at which point the trunk trigger and shock
sensor will become active again.
INTRUSION PROTECTION
There is no need to hard-wire the door triggers — the vehicle’s door triggers, and in some applications the trunk
trigger, are monitored by the interface module through the vehicle’s databus. The databus interface module will
detect both vehicle intrusions and faulty zones. For vehicles that do not have a trunk pin, or if the pin is not
monitored by the vehicle’s databus, the trunk can be hard-wired to the databus interface module.
Level I security is the default security mode setting (see the Internal Programming Jumpers section of this guide).
In Level I security mode, the standard vehicle security and operation features are monitored (see previous para-
graphs for descriptions). In addition to the standard features, there are additional features available in this mode:
DOOR KEY DISARM FEATURE
The databus interface module can be disarmed using the driver and passenger door key cylinder, if available (not
all vehicles have a passenger door key cylinder).
SENSOR SHUNT AND TRUNK TRIGGER BYPASS WITH THE TRUNK KEY CYLINDER
Similar to sensor shunt and trunk trigger bypass with the OEM transmitter, this feature allows trunk access using
the trunk key, while the rest of the vehicle’s security system remains armed. This shunt feature will continue until
5 seconds after the vehicle’s trunk has been closed, at which point the trunk trigger and shock sensor will become
active again.
