Directed Electronics 730T Automobile Alarm User Manual


 
Using Your System
You can turn on, or arm, the system by pressing of your trans-
mitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a
short siren sound, or chirp, and see the parking lights flash once.
If the vehicle’s power door locks are controlled by the system, the
doors will lock. While the system is armed, the Status LED will
flash about twice a 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, see Diagnostics sec-
tion. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification. The system
also can be programmed to arm itself automatically (called pas-
sive arming). If the system is programmed for passive arming, it
will automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off
and the system "sees" you leave the vehicle by opening and clos-
ing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30-second passive-arm-
ing countdown, the Status LED will flash twice as fast as it does
when the system is armed.
NOTE: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a switch-protect-
ed trunk or hood) is open, the system will not passively arm (unless
forced passive arming is programmed on. See Programming Options sec-
tion). Additionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the arming
countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.
