Starter Kill: An automatic switch controlled by the sys-
tem which prevents your vehicle’s starter from cranking whenever
the security system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented from
cranking when the security system is disarmed, in Valet
®
mode, or
should the starter kill switch itself fail. Your system is ready for
this feature; however, installation may require additional labor.
Input: A physical connection to the system. An input can be pro-
vided by a sensor, pinswitch or to existing systems in the vehicle,
such as ignition or courtesy lights.
LED: Red light mounted somewhere in the vehicle. It is used to
indicate the status of your system. It is also used to report trig-
gers and faults in the system or sensors.
Shock Sensor: This system is packaged with a Doubleguard
®
Shock
Sensor. This sensor is mounted in the vehicle and designed to pick
up impacts to the vehicle or glass.
Siren: Noise generating device usually installed in the engine
compartment of the vehicle. It is responsible for generating the
"chirps" you hear, as well as the six tones you hear while the alarm
is triggered.
Transmitter: Hand-held, remote control which operates the vari-
ous functions of your system.
Trigger or Triggered Sequence: This is what happens when the
alarm "goes off" or "trips". The triggered response of your system
consists of 30 seconds of siren sounding and parking light flashing.
