installation points to remember  
This system has been designed to provide the ultimate in convenience to both the dealer and the end user. The  
microprocessor at the heart of the system utilizes a sophisticated “Learn Routine” to program transmitters as  
well as configure operation settings. Transmitter codes and operations settings are stored in “EEPROM” and will  
remain in memory even if the system’s main power is disconnected for extended periods of time. Please take the  
time to read this guide thoroughly prior to installing the system.  
Do not disconnect the battery if the vehicle has an anti-theft coded radio. If equipped with an airbag, avoid dis-  
connecting the battery if possible.  
IMPORTANT! Many airbag systems will display a diagnostic code through their warning light after  
they lose power. Disconnecting the battery requires this code to be erased, a procedure that can  
require a trip to the dealer.  
Before beginning the installation:  
Check with the customer on status LED location.  
Remove the domelight fuse. This prevents accidentally draining the battery.  
Roll down a window to avoid being locked out of the car.  
After the installation:  
Test all functions. The “Using Your System” section of the Owner’s Guide is very helpful when testing.  
wiring the control unit  
The wiring harness supplied with this unit is the standard 12 pin harness used by DEI security systems. Two wires  
in the plug are not used. The functions of all the wires that are used in the primary harness are outlined in the  
following Primary Harness (H1), 12-Pin Connector section. The wire connections are described in the Primary  
Harness (H1) Wire Connection Guide section.

primary harness (H1) wire connection guide  
H1/1 ORANGE (-) ground-when-armed output  
This wire supplies a (-) 500 mA ground as long as the system is armed. This output ceases as soon as the system  
is disarmed. The orange wire is pre-wired to control the DEI® 8618 starter kill relay.  
NOTE: If connecting the orange wire to control another module, such as a DEI® 529T or 530T window  
controller, a 1 amp diode (type 1N4004) will be required. Insert the diode as shown in the diagram  
below.  
IMPORTANT! Never interrupt any wire other than the starter wire.  
H1/2 WHITE (-) parking light output  
This wire provides a (-) 200mA output to flash the parking lights. This is suitable for driving (-) light control  
wires in Toyota, Lexus, BMW, some Mitsubishi, some Mazda, etc. If the vehicle has a positive parking light circuit,  
a relay must be used to flash the parking lights.  
H1/3 WHITE/BLUE (-) channel 3 output  
This wire provides a (-) 200 mA output whenever the transmitter code controlling Channel 3 is received. This  
output will continue as long as that transmission is received. Use for options such as DEI’s 551T Valet® Start  
system, 529T or 530T power window controllers, etc.

IMPORTANT! Never use this wire to drive anything but a relay or a low-current input! The transis-  
torized output can only provide 200 mA of current, and connecting directly to a solenoid, motor,  
or other high-current device will cause it to fail.  
H1/4 BLACK/WHITE (-) 200 mA domelight supervision output  
Connect this wire to the optional domelight supervision relay as shown below:  
IMPORTANT! This output is only intended to drive a relay. It cannot be connected directly to the  
domelight circuit, as the output cannot support the current draw of one or more light bulbs.  
H1/6 BLUE (-) 200 mA second unlock output  
The H1/6 BLUE output is used for progressive unlock. A progressive unlock system unlocks the driver's door when  
the unlock (disarm) button is pressed and unlocks the passenger doors if the unlock (disarm) button is pressed  
again within 15 seconds after unlocking the driver's door. The BLUE wire outputs a low current (-) pulse on the  
second press of the unlock button of the transmitter. This negative unlock output is used to unlock the passen-  
ger doors.

H1/9 YELLOW (+) ignition input  
Connect this wire to an ignition source. This input must show (+)12V with the key in run position and during  
cranking. Make sure that this wire cannot be shorted to the chassis at any point. This wire will trigger the system  
if the ignition is turned on before the unit is disarmed (doors unlocked with the remote). It will also honk the  
vehicle’s horn and flash the parking lights (if connected).  
H1/10 BROWN (-) horn honk output  
This wire supplies a 200 mA (-) output that can be used to honk the vehicle horn. It outputs a single pulse when  
locking the doors with the remote, and two pulses when unlocking with the remote. This wire will also output  
pulses for 30 seconds when the Panic Mode is activated. If the vehicle has a (+) horn circuit, an outboard relay  
can be used to interface with the system, as shown below.  
H1/11 RED (+)12V constant power input  
Before connecting this wire, remove the supplied fuse. Connect to the positive battery terminal or the constant  
12V supply to the ignition switch.  
NOTE: Always use a fuse within 12 inches of the point you obtain (+)12V power. Do not use the  
10A fuse in the harness for this purpose. This fuse protects the module itself.

H1/12 RED/WHITE channel 2, 200mA (-) output  
When the system receives the transmitter code controlling Channel 2 for longer than 1.5 seconds, the red/white  
wire will supply an output as long as the transmission continues. This is often used to operate a trunk/hatch  
release or other relay-driven functions.  
IMPORTANT! Never use this wire to drive anything but a relay or a low-current input! The transis-  
torized output can only supply 200 mA of current. Connecting directly to a solenoid, motor, or other  
high-current device will cause it to fail.  
plug-in LED and valet/program switch  
The LED and the Valet/Program switch both plug into the control module. The status LED plugs into the small  
two-pin port, while the Valet®/Program switch should be plugged into the larger blue two-pin port. The status  
LED and Valet®/Program switch each fit into /32-inch holes.

door lock wiring diagrams  
This system can control two common power door lock types without any additional parts! To interface with some  
vehicles or if an actuator is to be installed, you will need a 451M Door Lock Relay Satellite or two relays.  
type A: (+) 12V pulses from the switch to the factory relays  
This security system can control Type A door locks directly, with no additional parts. The switch will have three  
wires on it, and one will test (+)12V constantly. The others will alternately pulse (+)12V when the switch is  
pressed to the lock or unlock position.  
If you cannot get to the switch, and you find a set of wires that pulse (+)12V alternately on lock and unlock,  
you must take care to ensure that it is not a Type C direct-wire system.  
IMPORTANT! If you mistake a Type C direct-wired system for a Type A positive-pulse system, the  
module will be damaged!  
Here is a test: Cut the wire which pulses (+)12V on lock, and then operate the switch to unlock.  
If all doors unlock, the vehicle uses a Type A system.  
If you lose all door lock operation in both directions, you are operating the master switch in a Type C system.  
If one or more, but not all, motors stop operating, you have cut a wire leading directly to one or more motors.  
Reconnect the wire and look for another wire.  
Many domestically-made GM vehicles use Type A locks. However, many more GM vehicles are Type C than in pre-  
vious years. The full-size pickups (1989-later), many of the S10 Blazers, the Corvette, '95 Cavalier/Sunfire 1993  
and newer, Camaro/Firebird all use Type C door locks, and cannot be controlled without a 451M! Almost all domes-  
tically-built Fords are Type C. Ford builds almost no Type A systems. Chrysler builds both Type A and Type C, so  
test carefully.

IMPORTANT! Remember that the functions of these wires reverse between Type A and Type B!  
type B: (-) pulses from the switch to the factory relays  
This system is common in many Toyotas, Nissans, Hondas and Saturns, as well as Fords with the keyless-entry  
systems (some other Fords also use Type B).  
The switch will have three wires on it, and one wire will test ground all the time. One wire will pulse (-) when  
the switch locks the doors, and the other wire will pulse (-) when the switch unlocks the doors. This type of  
system is difficult to mistake for any other type.  
IMPORTANT! Remember that the functions of these wires reverse between Type A and Type B!

type C: reversing polarity  
Interfacing with a reversing polarity system requires either two relays or one 451M (not included). It is critical  
to identify the proper wires and locate the master switch to interface properly. Locate wires that show voltage  
on lock and unlock. Cut one of the suspect wires and check operation of the locks from both switches. If one  
switch loses operation in both directions and the other switch operates in one direction only, you have located  
one of the target wires. The switch that lost all operation is the master switch. If one switch works both direc-  
tions and the other switch works only one direction, you have a Type A system. If both switches still operate,  
but one or more doors have stopped responding entirely, you have cut a motor lead. Reconnect it and continue  
to test for another wire. Once both wires have been located and the master switch identified, cut both wires and  
interface as shown below.  
IMPORTANT! If these are not connected properly, you will send (+) 12 Volts directly to (-) ground,  
possibly damaging the factory switch.

type D: after-market actuators  
In order for this system to control one or more aftermarket actuators, a 451M or two relays (optional) are needed.  
Vehicles without factory power door locks require the installation of one actuator per door. This requires mount-  
ing the door lock actuator inside the door. Other vehicles may only require one actuator installed in the driver's  
door if all door locks are operated when the driver's lock is used. This type of installation is required to operate  
factory lock systems in Volvo (except 850), SAAB, and most Mazda, Isuzu and Subaru models.  
The fuse used on 12V inputs should be 7.5A per motor installed in the vehicle.  
IMPORTANT! Do not connect the outputs of the alarm directly to the actuator!

type E: mercedes-benz and audi (1985 & newer)  
Door locks are controlled by an electrically activated vacuum pump. Some Mercedes and Audis use a Type D  
system. Test by locking doors from the passenger key cylinder. If all the doors lock, the vehicle's door lock system  
can be controlled with just two relays (optional). The control wire can be found in either kick panel and will show  
(+)12V when doors are unlocked and (-) ground when doors are locked.  
To interface see diagram below. The system must be programmed for 3.5 second door lock pulses (see Operating  
Settings Learn Routine section of this guide).  
type F: one-wire system  
Type F door locks usually require a negative pulse to unlock, and cutting of the same wire to lock the door. In  
some vehicles, these are reversed. Type F door locks are found in some late-model Nissan Sentras, 240SX, and  
1992 and later Nissan 300ZX. They are also found in some Mazda MPV's and some Mitsubishi's.  
One relay (optional) is used to interface Type F door locks as follows:

transmitter/receiver learn routine  
Transmitters are taught to the system using the Learn Routine. This system will learn up to four transmitters.  
Both transmitters come factory programmed using Button I for lock, unlock, and panic; Button II for Channel 2  
and Silent Mode; and Buttons I and II together operate Channel 3. This configuration can be changed or new  
remotes can be added to the system using the Learn Routine. For added security, this Learn Routine can be locked  
using the DEI Bitwriter (P/N 998T). If the unit does not respond to the Learn Routine, plug the Bitwriter into  
the data port of this unit and verify that the Transmitter Programming is unlocked.  
1. Key. Turn the ignition to the run position. (The YELLOW H1/9 wire must be already be con-  
nected.)

to advance from one channel to another  
You can advance from one channel to another by releasing the Valet®/Program switch and tapping it to advance  
channels and then holding it. For instance: You have programmed Channel 1 and you want to program Channel  
2. Release the Valet®/Program switch. Press it one time and release it to advance from Channel 1 to Channel 2.  
Now, press and hold the Valet/Program switch down and the unit will chirp twice. As before, do not release it.  
If you want to program Channel 3 after programming Channel 1, release the Valet/Program switch, press it twice  
and then release it to advance to Channel 3. Then press the Valet/Program switch once more and hold it. The  
horn will honk three times to confirm it is ready to receive the code from the transmitter to program Channel 3.  
to exit learn routine  
The learn routine will be exited if:  
The ignition is turned off.  
The Valet/Program switch is pressed too many times.  
More than 15 seconds elapses between steps.  
One long horn honk (if connected) indicates that the Learn Routine has been exited.  
transmitter configurations  
The transmitters can be programmed with the Standard Configuration or OEM Style Configuration by using the  
Auto Learn functions in the Transmitter/Receiver Learn Routine.  
standard configuration  
When programmed for Standard Configuration, the transmitter buttons are assigned to the following functions:  
Button I ...........................operates.........................Arm/Disarm/Panic  
Button II ..........................operates.........................Channel Two  
Buttons I and II ................operate ..........................Channel Three

oem style configuration  
A remote that uses the OEM Style Configuration operates similarly to many factory keyless entry remotes. An OEM  
Style Configuration transmitter allows arming and disarming with separate buttons. When programmed for OEM  
Style Configuration, the transmitter buttons are assigned to the following functions:  
Button I ...........................operates.........................Arm/Panic  
Button II ..........................operates.........................Disarm/Channel 2  
Buttons I and II ................operate ..........................Channel 3  
two vehicle operation with single transmitter  
You can get two-vehicle operation with the transmitters that come with the system; however, you will not be  
able to use all the auxiliary channels of the system (or all the auxiliary channels of the other system), unless  
using a 475T 4-button transmitter.  
Here's what to do:  
1. Using the Learn Routine, program Button I into System One as the arm/disarm button. Do this with all four  
remotes.  
2. Do the same with System Two, except program Button II of all four remotes as the arm/disarm button.  
If using DEI® 475T four-button remotes, all auxiliary channels are available on both vehicles. Before program-  
ming, make a list of all channels on each vehicle, and decide which button(s) should control which channel.  
For example, if you wanted the top two buttons to control Vehicle One and the bottom two buttons to control  
Vehicle Two, here is how each system would be programmed:  
VEHICLE 1  
Button I  
Arm/Disarm/Panic  
Channel 2  
Button II  
Buttons I and II  
Channel 3

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.

to access another feature  
You can advance from feature to feature by pressing and releasing the Valet®/Program switch the number of times  
necessary to get from the feature you just programmed to the feature you wish to access. For example, if you just  
programmed Feature 1 for passive arming and you want to program Feature 2 (Arm/Disarm Confirmation Honks):  
1. Release the Valet®/Program switch.  
2. Press and release the Valet/Program switch once to advance from Feature 1 to Feature 2.  
3. Press the Valet®/Program switch once more and hold it.  
4. The LED will flash in groups of two and the horn will honk twice (if connected) to confirm that you have  
accessed Feature 2.  
to exit the learn routine  
The learn routine will be exited if:  
The ignition is turned on.  
The Valet®/Program switch is pressed too many times.  
More than 15 seconds elapses between steps.  
One long horn honk (if connected) indicates that the Learn Routine has been exited.

feature descriptions  
1 ACTIVE/PASSIVE ARMING: When active arming is selected, the system will only arm when the transmitter is  
used. When set to passive, the system will arm automatically 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off. Passive  
arming is indicated by the rapid flashing of the LED.  
2 ARM/DISARM CONFIRMATION HONKS ON/OFF: This feature controls the horn honks that confirm the arming  
and disarming of the system.  
3 IGNITION CONTROLLED DOOR LOCK ON/OFF: When turned on, the doors will lock three seconds after the igni-  
tion is turned on.  
4 IGNITION CONTROLLED DOOR UNLOCK ON/OFF: When turned off, the doors will unlock when the ignition is  
turned off.  
5 ACTIVE/PASSIVE LOCKING: If passive arming is selected in Feature 1, then the system can be programmed to  
either lock the doors when passive arming occurs, or only lock the doors when the system is armed via the trans-  
mitter. Active locking means the system will not lock the doors when it passively arms. Passive locking means  
that the system will lock the doors when it passively arms.  
6 IGNITION CONTROLLED DOMELIGHT: If turned on, the system will turn on the domelight for 30 seconds when  
the ignition is turned off. The domelight supervision output (H1/4) wire must be connected to an optional relay  
as described in the Primary Harness Wire Connection Guide.  
7 DOOR LOCK PULSE DURATION: Some European vehicles, such as Mercedes-Benz and Audi, require longer lock  
and unlock pulses to operate the vacuum pump. Programming the system to provide 3.5 second pulses will  
accommodate door lock interface in these vehicles. The default setting is 0.8 second door lock pulses. See  
"Mercedes-Benz and Audi - 1985 and Newer (Type E Door Locks section)" diagram.  
8 DOUBLE PULSE UNLOCK OFF/ON: Some vehicles require two pulses on a single wire to unlock the doors. When  
the double pulse unlock feature is turned on, the BLUE H2/C wire will supply two negative pulses instead of a  
single pulse. At the same time, the GREEN H2/A wire will supply two (+) pulses instead of a single pulse. This  
makes it possible to directly interface with double pulse vehicles without any extra parts.  
9 SECURITY FEATURES ON/OFF: In the ON setting the (-) ground-when-armed output will be active and can be  
used to operate starter kill. The unit will also trigger a panic sequence if the ignition is turned on before dis-  
arming the system. Turning the security features off will turn off both the starter kill feature and the triggered  
sequence with ignition.  
10 CODE HOPPING ON/OFF: This system features Code Hoppingas an option. To use Code Hoppingtechnol-  
ogy, you must program this feature on. Code Hoppingis a feature that uses a mathematical formula to change  
the system’s code each time the transmitter and receiver communicate. This makes the group of bits or "word"  
from the transmitter very long. The longer the word is, the easier it is to block its transmission to the unit.

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 Hoppingtransmitter is taught to the system, the master dealer remote is automatically erased from  
memory.

troubleshooting  
Starter kill does not work:  
Is the correct starter wire being interrupted? If the car starts when the starter kill relay is completely dis-  
connected, the wrong starter wire has been cut and interrupted.  
Is the yellow wire connected to “true” ignition? Make sure this wire is connected to a wire that has power  
in the run and start positions.  
®
The Valet switch does not work.  
Is it plugged into the correct socket? See Plug-In LED and Valet®/Program Switch section. Is the H1/9 YELLOW  
wire properly connected? See Primary Harness (H1) Wire Connection Guide section of this guide.  
Status LED does not work.  
Is the LED plugged into the small white port on the side of the control unit? See Plug-In LED and  
®
Valet /Program Switch section.  
Door locks operate backwards.  
This unit has easily-reversed lock/unlock outputs. Recheck Harness 2, (+/-) Door Lock Outputs section to see  
if you have reversed these.  
The horn honks when the unit enters panic mode, but the confirmation honks do not work when locking  
and unlocking.  
Are the confirmation honks turned on in programming? See Operating Settings Learn Routine and Feature  
Descriptions sections.  
I can get into programming and change the feature settings, but when I use the remote the settings seem  
to change.  
Are you using a binary, master dealer remote? Remember, you can program the settings using a master dealer  
remote. However, the unit will follow the dealer default settings when using a binary remote to operate the  
system.
