Disabling the Code Hopping™ feature lets the receiver ignore the Code Hopping™ part of the transmitted word.
As a result, the unit may have better range with Code Hopping™ off.
rapid resume logic
This DEI system will store its current state to non-volatile memory. If power is lost and then reconnected the
system will recall the stored state from memory. This means if the unit is in Valet Mode and the battery is dis-
connected for any reason, such as servicing the car, when the battery is reconnected the unit will still be in Valet
Mode. This applies to all states of the system including arm, disarm, and Valet Mode.
master dealer remotes
A master dealer remote can be programmed into the system for demonstration purposes. Generally, each sales-
man would carry a remote that would operate all the cars on the lot equipped with this system. The dealer
remotes are binary transmitters that are detuned slightly in order to limit transmitting range. The dealer remote
can be taught to the system by following the Transmitter Learn Routine.
When installing the system, it is possible to preset all of the operation settings using the master dealer remote.
However, when the system is operated using the master dealer remote, a special set of dealer default settings are fol-
lowed. The dealer default settings are used to ensure that every vehicle equipped with this system is protected at all
times. Only the settings listed below are affected. When using a master dealer remote, the system operates as follows:
Passive arming
Confirmation honks on
Ignition lock and unlock on
Passive locking
Ignition domelight on
Security features on
The dealer default settings only affect the settings listed above. The remaining features control outputs of the
system that must be programmed to meet the needs of the installation. Once the vehicle is delivered to the end
user, two Code Hopping transmitters should be taught to the system. The system will then operate according to
how the operating settings have been preset. It is also possible to reprogram the operating settings using a stan-
dard Code Hopping transmitter if necessary.
When a Code Hopping
transmitter is taught to the system, the master dealer remote is automatically erased from
memory.
