Installation instruction
F11 Restore factory setting: This option allows the system to restore the factory setting rapidly.
F16 Anti-hijack by transmitter To activate the anti-hijack by pressing transmitter button and together when ignition is on.
F12 Valet/Personal mode setting for programming There are two modes of F12: Valet mode and Personal code mode. When F12 is in Valet mode, you can program the functions/features of F12~25 through Valet switch. When F12 is in Personal code mode, you can program the functions/features of F12~25 by input personal code.
F17 Anti-hijack by ignition on To activate the anti-hijack by ignition on or by a door opening (-) while the ignition is on. F18 Anti-hijack by ignition on To activate the anti-hijack by a door opening (+) while the ignition is on or by the speedometer trigger. F19 Arm (-) F19/1: The output (-) of Black/White wire is reverse to the armed output (-) (Orange wire). That means, when the Orange wire outputs signal (-), the Black/White wire will not output signal (-), when the Orange wire does not output signal (-), the Black/White wire will output signal (-). F19/2: Black/White wire will output signal (-) for turbo timer.
F13 Transponder card The transponder card is an additional upgrade accessory. F13/1 Turn off the transponder card detection. F13/2 Turn on the transponder card detection. If the transponder card is not found, the engine will be immobilized. F13/3 Turn on the transponder card detection and anti-hijack will be activated automatically when the transponder card is not detected.
F20 CH5 output F20/1: The output (-) of Gray wire is reverse to the armed output (-) (Orange wire). F20/2: The Gray wire will output a signal (-) to trigger a pager when the alarm system is triggered.
F14 Ignition warning in disarmed mode In disarmed mode, when ignition is on, the ignition icon ( ) will show on the LCD transmitter.
F21 CH6 output: two blue/black wires Select between turbo timer and W-mode. F21/1: output signal (-) for 20 seconds after disarmed. This option is recommended to trigger the headlight output.
F15 INST2 (-) extra input trigger Select between an INST2 extra input (-) or a speedometer input (-).
