operating settings learn routine
Many of the operating settings of this unit are programmable. They can be changed whenever necessary through
a computer-based learn routine. To simplify programming, the DEI Bitwriter (P/N 998T) can be used to change
options as well as lock the Learn Routine. If there is no response from the Learn Routine, plug the DEI Bitwriter
into the data port and verify that the Feature Programming is unlocked.
1. Key. Turn the ignition on and then back off. (The H1/9 YELLOW switched ignition input
must be connected.)
2. Choose. Within 10 seconds, press and release the Valet
®
/Program switch the number of
times corresponding to the feature number you want to program (see the Features Menu
section of this guide). The LED ON settings listed in the Features Menu table are the factory
default settings.
Once the Valet/Program switch has been pressed and released the number of times corre-
sponding to the feature you wish to program, press it once more and hold it. After a
second, the LED will flash to indicate which feature you have accessed. For example, groups
of five flashes would indicate access to Feature 5 (Active/Passive Locking feature). The
horn will also honk five times (if connected).
3. Transmit. The transmitter buttons are used to select the desired feature setting. As
shipped, the unit is configured to the default LED ON settings. Pressing the Channel 1
transmitter button (usually Button I) will program the feature to the LED ON setting. The
LED will light solid (stop flashing) to indicate the setting. The horn will honk once (if con-
nected). Pressing the Channel 2 transmitter button (usually Button II) will change the
setting to the LED OFF setting. The LED will turn off indicating the change and the horn
will honk twice (if connected).
4. Release. The Valet
®
/Program switch can now be released.
For example to program Feature 1 (Arming Mode) from active to passive, within 10 seconds of turning the igni-
tion off, press and release the Valet
®
/Program switch once. Then press it again and hold it. The LED will flash in
groups of one and the horn will honk once (if connected). While holding the Valet
®
/Program switch, press the
Channel 2 transmitter button. The LED will stop flashing and go out. The horn will honk twice if connected.
Passive arming is now programmed. If this is not the desired setting, without releasing the Valet
®
/Program switch,
press the Channel 1 button on the transmitter. The LED will light solid and the horn will honk once if connected.
Active arming is now programmed. Release the Valet
®
/Program switch after the desired selection is made.
