transmitter functions

The system uses a computer-based learn routine to learn the

transmitter buttons. This makes it possible to assign any trans-

mitter button to any system function. The transmitter initially

comes programmed with Standard Configuration, but may also

be customized by an authorized dealer. The buttons in all of the

instructions in this manual correspond to a Standard

Configuration transmitter.

using your system

The buttons used in the instructions in this manual correspond

to the standard configuration. Remember, this is not the only

way your transmitter may be set up. It can be custom configured

to meet your needs.

active arming

➜

You can activate, or arm, the system by pressing

on your

transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear

a short siren sound, or chirp, and the parking lights will flash

once. If the vehicle’s power door locks have been connected to the

system, the doors will lock.

While the system is armed, the status LED will flash approximately

once per second, indicating that the system is actively protecting

your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming, and see the

status LED flashing in groups, refer to the Diagnostics section of

this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification.

passive arming

➜

The system also can be programmed to arm itself automatically

(called passive arming). If the system is programmed for passive

arming, it will automatically arm 30 seconds after the ignition is

turned off and the system "sees" you leave the vehicle by opening

and closing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30-second

passive-arming countdown, the status LED will flash twice as

fast as it does when the system is armed. The siren will chirp one

time 20 seconds after the last door has been closed. The system

is not actually armed at that point. The system arms and the

doors lock (if connected and programmed for passive locking) at

the 30 second mark, but the siren will not chirp. The early chirp

provides you with a 10-second warning prior to arming.

note: If any protected entry point (such as a door or a

switch-protected trunk or hood) is open, the system will

not passively arm (unless forced passive arming is pro-

grammed on). See Programming Options section of this

guide. Additionally, each time a protected entry is trig-

gered during the arming countdown, the 30-second

countdown starts over.

When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:

➤ Light impacts will trigger the Warn Away signal. When

triggered, the siren will chirp and the parking lights will flash

for a few seconds.

➤ Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered

sequence is between 1-180 seconds of constant siren and

flashing parking lights.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

➤ If a door is opened, the system will immediately start

chirping the siren and flashing the parking lights. Three

seconds later, the siren output changes to a continuous blast.

This progressive response gives you time to disarm the sys-

tem with your transmitter if you inadvertently open the door

while the system is armed, while still providing an instant

response (even if the door is immediately closed).

➤ Turning on the ignition key will trip the same two-stage

response as opening a door.

➤ The optional starter kill prevents the vehicle’s starter from

cranking.

multi-level security arming

➜

note: The Multi-Level Security Arming feature is only

available with the optional four-button transmitter pro-

grammed to the expanded configuartions.

Multi-Level Security Arming allows you to select which of the

security system's inputs or sensors will be active and which will

be bypassed at the time that the system is armed. (See the Table

of Zones section of this guide.) Pressing

seconds of arming the security system will activate the Multi-

Level Security Arming feature. Each time is pressed again, a

bypassed.

➤ Press

a fifth time within five seconds: The siren chirps

five times followed by a long chirp. All input zones, except

the ignition, are now bypassed.

➤ Continued pressing of

will begin the Multi-Level

Security Arming cycle over again.

note: Multi-Level Security Arming only applies to a sin-

gle arming cycle. Once the system is disarmed and then

re-armed, all the zones will be active again.

arming while driving

➜

Your system can be armed while driving the vehicle. Simply press

on your transmitter for two seconds while the vehicle is

running or while the ignition is on. The siren will chirp once and

then once more to indicate that the ignition is on. The security

system will not respond to any input except the door triggers and the

Failsafe Starter Kill (if installed) will not be activated. The security

system will disarm automatically whenever the ignition is turned off.

The siren will chirp twice and the LED will stop flashing.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

note: If programmed for the optional Vehicle Recovery

System (VRS ) feature, arming with the transmitter will

arm the VRS feature. (See VRS section of this guide.)

disarming

➜

To disarm the system, press

. You will hear two chirps,

and the parking lights will flash twice. If the power locks are

connected to the system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps

either four or five times when disarming, refer to the Diagnostics

section of this guide. This is called Tamper Alert.

high security disarm

➜

This security system offers High Security Disarm. High Security

Disarm is a feature that makes it possible to silence and reset the

system while it is triggering, without disarming the system. If the

system is triggered and the siren has been sounding for longer

than six seconds, pressing

on the remote transmitter will

stop the trigger and return the unit to the armed state. The

system will not disarm, but rather reset. This prevents you from

disabling the system should you wish to disarm it without visu-

ally checking the vehicle. Pressing

, after resetting the

system, will disarm the system; pressing this button during the

first six seconds of the triggered sequence will disarm the security

system immediately. The six second timer is provided for your

convenience, in case the system is accidentally triggered.

disarming without a transmitter

➜

This feature allows you to disarm the security system without the

remote transmitter should it be lost, damaged, or disabled. In order

to disarm the system without a remote transmitter, you must have

the vehicle’s ignition key and know where the Valet button is

located. Be sure to check with the installer for the location and the

number of presses of the Valet button required to disarm the system.

To disarm the security system,

turn the ignition to the ON posi-

tion. Press the Valet button the

DRW-35

preset number of times (one to

five times) within 15 seconds.

After 5 seconds, the system will

now disarm. If the system does

not disarm, you may have waited

too long; turn the ignition off and on and try again.

Location of Valet Button_________________________________

Number of Pulses______________________________________

important! The unit can be programmed to respond to

one to five pulses of the Valet button for the disarm func-

tion. Be sure to check with the installer for the desired

programming.

silent mode

➜

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

To temporarily turn off the arm or disarm chirps, use Silent

Mode™. Simply press for less than one second before

arming or disarming, and the confirmation chirp(s) will be elim-

inated for that one operation only. If you want the arm/disarm

chirps turned off permanently, your dealer can do this for you.

note: The Warn Away response to lighter impacts is

bypassed if the system is armed using Silent Mode. This

ensures that no chirps will be emitted by the siren in an

area you want chirp-free. The system is still fully capable

of triggering, only the Warn Away response is bypassed.

panic mode

➜

If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract

attention by triggering the system with your transmitter. Just

press

for two seconds, and you will enter Panic Mode. The

siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for the

programmed siren duration. To stop Panic Mode at any time,

press

on the remote transmitter again.

valet mode

➜

You can prevent your security system from automatically arming

and triggering by using Valet Mode. This is very useful when

washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet Mode, the

security system will not arm, even with the remote transmitter,

but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.)

will continue to work normally.

To enter or exit Valet Mode:

1. Open any vehicle door.

2. Press

3. Press

4. Press

again.

The status LED will light solidly if you are entering Valet Mode,

and it will go out if you are exiting Valet Mode.

nuisance prevention^®circuitry

Your system has Directed’s Nuisance Prevention Circuitry

➜

(NPC). It prevents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to

faulty door pin switches or environmental conditions such as

thunder, jackhammers, airport noise, etc.

Example

If the alarm triggers three times within a 60-minute period and

each time the same sensor or switch triggers the alarm, NPC will

interpret those triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, NPC

ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or switch (along with any other

sensors or switches sharing the same zone) for 60 minutes.

If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the system while it is being

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over. This

ensures that a sensor that continually triggers will remain

bypassed.

Doors are covered by NPC differently; if the alarm is triggered

by an open door for three full cycles, the doors will be bypassed

until the trigger ceases.

note: Arming and disarming the system does not reset this

function! The only ways to reset a bypassed zone are for it

to not trigger for 60 minutes, or to turn on the ignition. If

testing your system, it is important to remember that the

NPC programming can cause zones to be bypassed and

appear to stop working. If five chirps are heard when dis-

arming, NPC has been engaged. If you wish to clear the

NPC memory, turn the ignition key on.

NPC is programmable. See Programming Options section of this

guide.

diagnostics

The microprocessor at the heart of your security system is

constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors that are

connected to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and

prevents them from disabling the entire system. The micropro-

cessor will also record and report any triggers that occurred

during your absence. Refer to the System Status Chirps and

Table of Zones charts for diagnostic information.

arming diagnostics

➜

If the system is armed while an input is active (door open, sensor

triggering, etc.) the unit will chirp once when arming and then

one more time a few seconds later. This is called Bypass

Notification.

note: Bypass Notification will not occur when using

Silent Mode™ or if chirps have been programmed OFF.

The security system will ignore the input that was active when

the system was armed, until the input goes away. Three seconds

later the system will monitor that input normally. For example,

if your vehicle has interior light exit delay, and you arm the

system before the interior light goes out, you may hear Bypass

Notification chirps. Once the light shuts off, however, the doors

are monitored normally.

disarming diagnostics

➜

Extra disarm chirps are the Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard

when disarming, the system was triggered in your absence. If five

chirps are heard, a zone was triggered so many times that Nuisance

Prevention Circuitry has bypassed that zone. In either case, the

status LED will indicate which zone was involved. (See Table of

Zones section of this guide.) The system will retain this information

in its memory, and continue to chirp four or five times each time it

is disarmed, until the next time the ignition key is turned on.

system status chirps

interpreting zone diagnostics

➜

Warn Away responses are not reported by arming or disarming

diagnostics. If you receive a Bypass notification when arming or

a Tamper Alert notification when disarming, look at the LED.

Active or triggered zones will be indicated by a pattern of blinks

by the LED.

Example

If zone 3 was active or triggered, the LED will blink three times

with a two-second pause. Then it will blink three times again,

and repeat until the ignition is turned on.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

note: Your system stores the last two triggered zones in

memory. If your system has been triggered but the LED

has been reset by turning on the ignition, your dealer can

still recall the last two zones that were triggered. Contact

your dealer for details.

code hopping

The receiver and transmitters each use mathematical formulas

called algorithms to change their codes each time the transmitter

is used. This technology has been developed to increase the secu-

rity of the unit. The control unit knows what the next codes

should be. This helps to keep the transmitter "in sync" with the

control unit even if you use the remote control out of range of

the vehicle. However, if the transmitter has been pressed many

times out of range of the vehicle, or if the battery has been

removed, it may get out of sync with the control unit and fail to

operate the system. To re-sync the remote control simply press

of the transmitter several times within range of the

vehicle. The alarm will automatically re-sync and respond to the

transmitters normally.

owner recognition

Owner Recognition is a feature available exclusively from Directed.

Using the Directed Bitwriter , a hand-held programming tool, your

dealer can program many of the system settings. The programmer

makes it possible to program different settings for each transmitter

that is used with the system. Then, whenever a specific transmitter

is used, the system will recall the settings assigned to that transmitter.

Owner Recognition lets up to four users of the system have different

settings that meet their specific needs. It is almost like having four

separate alarms in your vehicle, one for each user.

note: Owner Recognition cannot be programmed with-

out a Directed Bitwriter and the necessary software.

Check with your dealer for more information.

rapid resume logic

This Directed 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 disconnected 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, VRS , and Valet Mode.

power saver mode

Your system will automatically enter Power Saver Mode while

armed or in Valet Mode, after a period of time in which no oper-

ation has been performed. This lowers the current draw to the

vehicle’s battery. Power Saver Mode takes over under the

following conditions:

➤ Power Saver when the system is armed: After the system has

been armed for 24 hours, the LED will flash at half its

normal rate, decreasing the system's current draw.

➤ Power Saver in Valet Mode: When the system enters Valet

Mode the LED illuminates steadily. If the vehicle is not used

(ignition is not turned on) for a period of one hour while the

system is in Valet Mode, the LED will shut off. If the system

remains in Valet Mode, the LED will come back on the next

time the ignition is turned on and then back off.

this feature on, the doors will lock three seconds after the

ignition is turned on, and unlock when the ignition is

the doors from locking when the ignition is turned on with

any door open. If your installer is programming the security

system with the Directed Bitwriter, ignition lock and unlock

are independent features and can be programmed separately.

➤ Forced passive arming

or off: If your system is

programmed for passive arming and the forced passive

arming feature has been programmed on, the system will

passively arm after one hour, even if a protected entry has

been left open. This feature is useful if a door has been left

ajar when leaving the vehicle. Forced passive arming ensures

that the security system will be armed in every situation.

note: When the system passively arms after one hour, the

entry point that has been left open, and anything con-

nected to the same zone, is bypassed and cannot trigger

the system. However, the remaining inputs to the system

are fully operational.

➤ Automatic Engine Disable (AED)

this feature is to protect the vehicle from being stolen at all

times, regardless of whether or not the alarm is armed. If

AED is programmed on, the starter of the vehicle will be dis-

abled 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off. Once the

key is turned off, the LED will flash slowly (one-half its

normal armed rate) to indicate the AED arming cycle.

Thirty seconds later, the starter of the vehicle will be dis-

abled. To start the car, it will be necessary to disarm the

system with the transmitter. It is also possible to disarm the

➤ Comfort closure: Windows will close upon locking the

vehicle.

➤ Full trigger response

long the full triggered sequence lasts. Some states have laws

regulating how long a security system can sound before it is

1 to 180 seconds.

➤ Nuisance Prevention Circuitry

systems, programming NPC off may cause your system to

violate state laws.

➤ Progressive door trigger or off: When the system is armed

and a door is opened, the system responds with ten chirps

prior to beginning the full triggered sequence. If an instant

installation options

The system has many options that may require extra parts and

labor. Some of the possibilities are listed here.

➤ Progressive unlocking: In most cars with electric power door

locks, the system can be configured so that when the system is

disarmed, only the driver’s door unlocks. A second press of the

button unlocks the other doors. (This feature is available

with the four-button tranmitter only.)

➤ Vehicle Recovery System (VRS ): VRS is an anti-carjacking

device designed to help in the safe recovery of your vehicle

in case of a carjacking. Please refer to the Vehicle Recovery

vehicle recovery system (vrs^®)

The optional VRS feature is designed to ensure that any unau-

thorized user of your vehicle (even if using your keys and remote

control) will not be able to permanently separate you from your

vehicle.

The VRS cannot prevent a carjacking attempt; however, it does

ensure that if your vehicle is taken by an unauthorized user, it will

be disabled (after several progressive warnings) as safely as

possible. Should a carjacking occur, the VRS allows you to

concern yourself with your personal safety without worrying

about your property.

Directed has engineered this vehicle security system, the Failsafe

Starter Kill, and the VRS feature to provide the best combina-

tion of personal safety and property protection available. When

properly installed, the system can never inadvertently stop your

vehicle in traffic or on railroad tracks while the vehicle is in oper-

ation. It is unlike other systems that shut down your engine

while it is running. This system is designed to perform starter in-

terrupt, or starter kill. The Failsafe Starter Kill cannot shut

down an already-running engine – it can only prevent an engine

from starting in the first place.

important! Any installation that allows this product to

shut down a vehicle's engine when it is running is con-

trary to the product’s design and intended usage, and

Directed hereby expressly disclaims any liability resulting

therefrom.

arming the vrs

To arm the VRS , turn the ignition to the ON position and press

➜

the arm button on the remote transmitter for one second. The

parking lights will flash and the siren will chirp once. This can be

done before driving or while driving the vehicle. Once the system

is armed, it will initiate its triggered sequence (see below) if any

door is opened and closed. If you are forced from the vehicle, the

system will trigger as the door is opened and closed. This is how

the system works to combat intersection carjacking. To protect

against parking lot carjacking, arm the VRS before leaving the

vehicle. The system will now trigger automatically the next time

you or anyone drives the vehicle. This helps to protect the vehicle

if someone takes your keys and remote transmitter by force in a

parking lot.

note: If the VRS system is armed while operating the vehi-

cle and not disarmed prior to leaving the vehicle, it is still

armed and will trigger the next time the vehicle is driven.

vrs triggered sequence

➜

Fifteen seconds after the last door has closed, the system’s status

LED will begin flashing. This delay is intended to allow you time to

distance yourself from your vehicle in the event of a carjacking.

Forty-five seconds later, the siren begins chirping and the park-

ing lights begin flashing. This time could be used to notify au-

thorities that your vehicle has been hijacked, and tell them what

the VRS will do next.

Fifteen seconds after the siren chirps begin, the siren’s output will

change to a continuous blast.

From this point on, when the ignition key is turned off, the VRS

will immediately turn on the starter kill. This will prevent the

vehicle from being restarted, thus immobilizing it at that spot.

Three minutes after the constant siren output begins, the flashing

parking lights and the siren will stop. The starter kill will remain

active until the system is disarmed. If the door is opened or the

ignition is turned off and on in an attempt to restart the car, the

siren and light flashing will begin again.

disarming the vrs^®

Take the time to familiarize yourself with the VRS triggering se-

➜

quence and the disarm procedure. It is important to recognize

and identify the VRS trigger sequence and know how to disarm

it in case of accidental activation.

Once the VRS is armed, it does not disarm automatically. You

must disarm it the next time you operate the vehicle. You must

disarm it with one of the following procedures:

If the system has not entered the triggered sequence (siren has

not started chirping):

1. Turn the ignition on.

2. Press

on the transmitter for one second.

The lights will flash and the siren will chirp

twice.

glossary of terms

Control Unit: The "brain" of your system. Usually hidden under

the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor which

monitors your vehicle and controls all of the system's

functions.

Fail-Safe Starter Kill: An automatic switch controlled by the secu-

rity system which prevents the vehicle’s starter from cranking

whenever the system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented

from cranking when the system is disarmed, in Valet mode, or

should the starter interrupt switch itself fail. Your system is ready

for this feature, however installation may require additional

labor.

Input: A physical connection to the system. An input can be

provided by a sensor, pinswitch or through an existing system in

the vehicle, such as ignition or courtesy lights.

LED: Red light mounted somewhere in the vehicle. It is used to

indicate the status of your system. It is also used to report trig-

gers and faults in the system or sensors.

Shock Sensor: This is a sensor mounted in the vehicle that is

designed to pick up impacts to the vehicle or glass.

Siren: Noise generating device usually installed in the engine

compartment of the vehicle. It is responsible for generating the

"chirps" you hear, as well as the six tones you hear while the

alarm is triggered.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Transmitter: Hand-held, remote control which operates the

various functions of your system.

Trigger or Triggered Sequence: This is what happens when the

alarm "goes off" or "trips". The triggered response of your system

consists of the siren sounding and parking light flashing for the

programmed duration.

Valet Switch: A small push-button switch mounted somewhere

inside the vehicle. It is used to override the alarm when a trans-

mitter is lost or damaged, or to enter or exit Valet mode.

Warn-Away Response: Lighter impacts to the vehicle will generate

the Warning Zone response. It consists of several seconds of siren

chirps and parking light flashes.

Zone: A zone is a separate input that the alarm can recognize as

unique. Each input to the system is connected to a particular

zone. Two or more inputs often share the same zone.

security & convenience expansions

Here we have listed only some of the many expansion options

available. Please contact your dealer for a complete explanation

of all the options available to you.

Audio Sensor: Metal on glass, glass cracking, and breaking glass

each produce distinctive acoustic signatures. The 506T audio

sensor uses a microphone to pick up sounds, and then analyzes

them with proprietary acoustic software to determine if the glass

has been struck.

Backup Battery: The 520T keeps the system armed, triggers the

alarm and keeps the starter kill active if main battery power is

disconnected.

Field Disturbance Sensor: An invisible dome of coverage is estab-

lished by installing the 508D "radar" sensor. Your security

system can then react to any intrusions into this field with the

triggered sequence.

Headlight and Parking Light Automation: The 545T Nite-Lite

will automatically turn on your parking and headlights when it

gets dark. In addition, the 545T will turn your headlights on

whenever the windshield wipers are used. A transmitter function

can also be used to turn on your parking and headlights for a

programmed time.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Power Trunk Release: The channel two output of the system can

operate a factory power release for the vehicle’s trunk or hatch.

(An additional relay may be required.) If the factory release is not

power activated, then Directed's 522T trunk release solenoid can

often be added.

Power Window Control: Automatic power window control is pro-

vided with the 529T and 530T systems.

Valet Start System: For the ultimate in convenience, the Valet

start system can start your vehicle, monitor engine functions,

and power your climate control system with a push of a button.

Over-rev protection, open-hood lockout, brake pedal shutoff,

and automatic timer shutoff are all included. (This feature is

only for automatic transmission, fuel-injected gasoline vehicles.)

543T XHFplus External Receiver/Antenna: The 543T XHFplus

external receiver/antenna can be used to upgrade the trans-

mitter/receiver performance in areas of high radio interference

such as military bases, airports, and hospitals.

Mobile Video: This system is compatable with Directed Video’s

MCB1000 Multi-Channel Controller, featuring on-screen secu-

rity system programming and zone trigger information.
