1-06 Reservation Lock Manual transmission only. Setting III will provide a 10 second delay before the vehicle
shuts off after closing the last door to allow for another door to open. Upon a door opening, the user will have
2 minutes to close the last door in order for reservation mode to set.
1-09 Ignition Controlled Locks Setting 2 will lock the doors when the foot brake is pressed and doors closed.
Tach sensing mode must be used for setting 3. You must also turn this feature on through the remote by tap
ping I+IV (2 Way remotes) or Lock+Key (1 Way remotes)
1-10 Auto Relock This option will automatically relock/rearm after the system has been disarmed and the doors
have not been opened.
1-11 Ignition / Accessory Upon Unlock This option will pulse the ignition wire, accessory, or both upon unlock/
disarm. Most new Chrysler vehicles need the ignition and accessory pulsed to disarm the factory alarm.
1-14 Auto Lock Mode This option must be set for the Auto Mode on 2 Way international remotes to function.
2-01 Tach Sensing Method This option will adjust the method at which tach is read by the module. At default the
current setting will minimize overcrank.
2-02 Turbo Mode This option will adjust the run time after Turbo mode has been engaged.
The e-brake and door trigger input must be connected and the feature must be turned on through the remote
for this feature to work.
2-03 Diesel Timer Use this option if you cant find the glow plug wire. You can use setting 2 for a default wait to
start of 10 seconds, otherwise, you can adjust the time with your OP500 Programmer.
2-04 Trigger Start This option changes the number of times required for a negative (-) start input on Pin 12 of
CN3.
2-05 Cold Start This option turns on the cold/hot starting features. This option works in conjunction with 2-6, 2-8
and 2-9. The thermistor must be plugged into the controller/brain.
2-06 Timer Start or Interval Between Cold Start - This option dictates the time interval when the control module
will either remote start or check the temperature and remote start.
Default 1: Will start every 3 hours until the vehicle is remote started or started by key and run for 4 minutes.
Option 2: Will start every 1.5 hours until the vehicle is remote started or started by key and run for 4 minutes.
Option 3: Will start at the time specified on the 2 way remote once within 24 hours and run based on Option
2-07.
Option 4: Will start once every 24 hours if the temperature falls below Option settings 2-08 or above Option
settings 2-09.
For example, if you want your car to start and run 25 minutes when the temperature falls below 32F, you
need to set up the following options:

2) Option 2-06-IV (24 hr. repeat) turned on,
3) Option 2-07-II (25 min run-time) turned on,
4) Option 2-08-IV (Temp 32F) turned on,
*Set the reservation time at 7 am (see Users guide)
**Turn on Timer Mode of the 2 way LCD remotes (see Users Guide)
2-08 Temperature of Cold Starting Works in conjunction with Options 2-05 and 2-06. See option table for avail
able temperatures.
2-10 Engine Sensing Review the Common Procedures section for complete explanations on the four engine
sensing modes.
2-11 Runtime Extension This option resets the engine run countdown before the vehicle shuts off for either the
remote start or turbo timer. To reset the runtime you must hold the remote start button for 2.5 seconds while
the unit is still running. This feature is only available on select 2 Way LCD remotes.
3-02 Dome Light Output This option sets the timing output of the Dome Light wire on CN3.
Default 1: Off
Option 2: Factory Rearm This system will pulse the dome light output during lock/arm.
Option 3: 45 second Dome Light Output activates the dome light for 45 seconds upon unlock/disarm.
Option 4: This is a combination of 2 and 3.
3-03 Dome Light Delay This option is used when connecting the door trigger input to the vehicles dome light
circuit. It delays the door trigger input to prevent the door open icon displaying on 2 Way remotes upon lock/
arm.
3-04 Starter-Kill This option determines the mode of the anti-grind/starter-kill relay.
Default 1: Anti-grind + starter-kill
Option 2: Anti-grind only (no starter-kill)
Option 3: Anti-grind + passive starter-kill: starter-kill activates in 45 seconds after ignition is turned off.
3-06 Factory Style Alarm With this option on the control module will monitor the door triggers. If the
door is opened while locked/armed then the horn will honk if connected.
3-08 Horn Output This option will change the behavior of the horn output during lock, unlock, and
remote start.

3-10 Valet This option changes valet modes.
Default 1: Key on/off five times or remote valet (I + III for 0.5 seconds) with key in the on position.
Option 2: Key on/off five times or remote valet (I+III for 0.5 seconds) key does not need to be in the on posi
tion.
Option 3: Secure valet: RPS Valet or remote valet (I+III for 0.5 seconds) this option prevents the system from
being put into valet via key on/off five times. To set up the RPS Valet feature, review the Placement and Use
of Components section.
3-11
Auxiliary Settings This option requires the installation of the optional Auxiliary settings module. The Auxilia
ry settings adds five additional independent auxiliary outputs for a total of seven. With this option turned on,
auxiliary 2 becomes non functional and Aux 1 becomes the data wire for the Auxiliary settings. Special Option
Group 1 allows for independent timing of these outputs.
3-12 Passive Arming w/Auxiliary Settings The ability to activate/deactivate Passive Arming through the remote
is lost once Option 3-11 is turned on. This option allows the use of Passive Arming when using the optional
Auxiliary settings.
4-01 Aux 1 Output - This option determines the duration of the Aux 1 output. Setting IV allows the output duration
to be set for a specific length of time.
4-02 Aux 2 Output - This option determines the duration of the Aux 2 output. Setting IV allows the output duration
to be set for a specific length of time.
4-05 Secure Aux Output On the default setting, button 4 on the remote must be pressed first before Aux 1 or Aux 2
can be triggered. This prevents accidental triggering of the outputs. Option setting II turns this feature off.
4-08 Extended Accessory After Ignition Shutoff This option keeps the Accessory wire powered up after the igni
tion is shut off. This can be used to keep the radio turned on even after the key is removed from the ignition
(similar to GM vehicles).
4-09
Glow Plug or Key Sense Default setting sets the wire as a glow plug input. Option setting 2 changes the wire
to a key sense input. Key sense can be used to prevent reservation mode from setting and the system from
passive arming while the key is still in the ignition. Key sense also turns off dome-light supervision when the
key is inserted into the ignition.
4-10
Trigger Start or Closed Loop System Default setting sets Pin 12 on CN3 as a trigger start input, which
will initiate remote start with a negative (-) trigger. Option 2-04 allows the number of pulses required to initiate
remote start to be changed. Setting 2 changes the wire to a closed loop input, which makes it an instant alarm
trigger when separated from ground - Ideal for protecting trailers or headlights.
4-11 Bypass Brand Through RS232 Port Default setting allows for compatibility with ADS Idatalink
modules. Setting 2 changes compatibility to Fortin bypass modules. This is only available on the
CM5000 and CM5200.
