Directed Electronics 650 Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
Valet
®
Mode
You can prevent your system from automatically arming and triggering
by using Valet Mode. This is very useful when washing the vehicle or
having it serviced. In Valet Mode, the system will not arm, even with
the transmitter, but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk
release, etc.) will work normally.
To enter or exit Valet Mode with the Valet switch:
Turn ignition to "run" position, then turn to "off"
position. Press and release the Valet switch with-
in 10 seconds. The Status LED will light steady if
you have entered Valet Mode, and it will go out if
you exited Valet Mode.
Using Remote Valet as you enter or exit the vehicle:
Open any door. Press Button I (or the arm/disarm button). Press
Button II (or the function 2 Button). Press Button I again. The Status
LED will light steady if you have entered Valet Mode, and it will go out
if you exited Valet Mode.
Nuisance Prevention Circuitry
®
Your system has DEI's Nuisance Prevention Circuitry (NPC
). It pre-
vents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin
switches or environmental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers,
airport noise, etc.
Here's how it works:
Let's say the alarm triggers three times. Each time, the same sensor
or switch is triggering the alarm.The three triggers are within 60 min-
utes of each other. NPC will interpret this pattern of triggers as false
alarms. After the third trigger, NPC ignores, or bypasses, that sensor
or switch (along with any other sensors or switches sharing the same
zone).
If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the system while it is being
bypassed, the 60 minute bypass period will start over. This ensures
that a sensor that continuously triggers will remain bypassed.
