off the brake pedal. Press the Valet Switch 6 times; the parking lights will ash and the

ignitions will turn on� Turn the key off and the engine will remain running for 12hrs� Run

time extender can be used in this mode allowing a run time up to 24hrs� This is ideal for

commercial refrigeration trucks, cleaning vans, vehicles w/ PTO, etc�

LOW BATTERY/LOW TEMP AUTOMATIC STARTING

Other Remote Start Features

This feature will automatically start the engine if the vehicle battery drops below

11 volts or the interior temperature drops to 15 (or 32) degrees fahrenheit� You must

activate these features each time you park your car to use them�

Method 1 - Valet Switch

• Turn the ignition switch “on”, then “off” (engine not running), and within 7 seconds

press the valet switch twice� If there is a 2 second delay without additional valet button

presses, the siren will chirp 3 times activating low voltage start mode�

• To activate low temp starting, enter low voltage start mode as described above then,

immediately after the horn honks, press the valet switch 1 time (15 degrees) or 2 times

(32 degrees) within 5 seconds. The siren will chirp to conrm your selection.

Method 2 - With The Controller (Low Volt & Low Temp. @ -15°F Only)

• Within 5 seconds of performing UNLOCK, then LOCK, press the START button� The

siren/horn will chirp to conrm.

NOTE: When low temp start mode is activated, low voltage start is also activated� These

features will operate once every two hours until the ignition key is turned “ON”�

Other Remote Start Features (cont’d)

MANUAL TRANSMISSION STARTING

Remote starting with a manual transmission requires that you ensure the gear selector

is in NEUTRAL� There are 2 available methods�

METHOD #1 - 3D MOTION SENSOR:

Some models are equipped with a 3D motion sensor built into the antenna (optional

sensors are available as an upgrade)� Whenever remote start is activated, this sensor is

monitored for vehicle movement� If the vehicle moves just a few inches when the engine is

cranking, it will instantly turn the engine off� This safety feature allows you to enjoy remote

start without performing reservation mode as described below�

METHOD #2 - RESERVATION MODE:

For extra safety, installer feature #11 can be turned on which requires you to perform a

setup procedure that ensures the transmission was left in neutral when you park your

vehicle� This must be performed each time you leave your vehicle to use remote start

later� To do so, follow these steps:

1) With the engine running via the ignition switch, hold the brake pedal, apply the parking

brake, then release the brake pedal�

2) Use the transmitter as if you were activating remote start (default: press START twice)�

The status light will start to ash slow.

3) Turn off the ignition key and exit the vehicle�

4) Press LOCK on the transmitter� The engine will shut down (unless turbo timer is on)

and the status light will ash every 2 seconds (ready to be remote started).

NOTE: Manual transmission starting is canceled if you enter the vehicle after

performing the setup procedure.

Security System Features (optional)

LAST DOOR ARMING

This system can be congured to arm automatically when all the vehicle’s doors

are closed (see user feature #9)� When this feature is utilized, the siren/horn will chirp

once when all of the doors are closed� At that point, it will start a 30 second countdown

(indicated by a fast ashing status light). After 30 seconds, the system will arm (and lock

the doors if congured to do so). During the 30 second arming delay, if a point of entry is

opened, the countdown will pause until all entry points are closed again� Turning ON the

ignition key will cancel the last door arming sequence until the key is turned off and the

doors are all closed once again�

AUTOMATIC REARMING

This automatically rearms the alarm if the system is disarmed from the remote

(see user feature #10)� When disarmed by remote, the system will start a 90 second

countdown (fast ashing status light) to arm the system. This is useful if the controller

accidentally disarms the system when it’s kept in a purse or pocket where other items

could potentially press the buttons� ENHANCED AUTO REARM allows you to cancel

the countdown by pressing UNLOCK a second time within 5 seconds of the rst press to

disarm the alarm�

PRE-WARN DETECTION

This system’s impact sensor is designed, in addition to detecting a full impact, will warn

away potential violators when it detects a light impact to the vehicle� The

system will respond by chirping the siren/horn 3 times and locking the doors� 7

Using The Valet Button

Security System Features (cont’d)

SECURECODE

SecureCode allows you to customize the number of valet presses required to perform

an emergency override� This is an extra layer of security that prevents anyone from

overriding the alarm even if they have a key to the vehicle� SecureCode has 2 stages

with the rst requiring 1-9 button valet presses and the second requiring 0-9 valet button

presses� This gives you 99 possible combinations� To program a custom SecureCode,

please refer to user feature #13 on Page 18�

To perform an emergency override with SecureCode, use the following steps:

STEP 1 - With the system armed, enter the vehicle (the alarm will activate)�

STEP 2 - Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position�

STEP 3 - Within 5 seconds of step 2, press the valet switch to enter the rst digit of your

programmed code�

STEP 4 - After a few seconds, the siren will stop sounding and chirp once (conrming

stage 1)� The siren will then continue sounding�

STEP 5 - Now, within 5 seconds of step 4, press the valet switch to enter the second digit

of your code� If the code is correct, the alarm will disarm�

EMERGENCY OVERRIDE

If you were to lose or break your controller, you’d need to perform an emergency

override to disarm the system and use your vehicle� To do so, use the following steps:

STEP 1 - Enter the vehicle (the alarm should sound)�

STEP 2 - Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position�

STEP 3 - Press the valet switch (located in the window-mount antenna) once�

NOTE: Enter your SecureCode at this time if programmed via user feature #13

STEP 4 - Turn the ignition key “OFF”�

If the code is entered incorrectly, you must turn the ignition key OFF, then back ON to try

again� Additionally, if 2 failed attempts are made, the alarm will ignore any further attempts

for 2 minutes�

WHEN THE SYSTEM TRIGGERS

It will sound the siren/horn and ash the parking lights for 30 seconds (programmable).

When disarming after a trigger event, the siren/horn will chirp 4 times and the parking

lights will ash 4 times instead of the standard 2 times.

LOCK ON TRIGGER: If a door is opened when the system is triggered, it will wait until the

door is closed again, then lock the doors� This feature combats “slim jim” type devices�

STORM SAFE MODE: When the system is triggered, pressing the LOCK/UNLOCK button

will stop the alarm from sounding but will leave the doors locked�

NUISANCE PREVENTION: If the system pre-warns 5 times within 15 minutes, it will

bypass the zone for the remainder of the 15 minutes before rearming the pre-warn zone�

Additionally, if a full trigger zone is left open, the system will trigger a total of 3 times

before bypassing the zone� Once the zone is closed again, it will re-arm that zone�

The Status Light

VALET MODE

Valet mode completely disables all security & remote start functions� Keyless entry is

still operable� To enter valet mode, perform the following steps:

STEP 1 - Disarm the system by remote or by performing an emergency override�

STEP 2 - Press and hold the valet switch for 2 seconds� The system will chirp once

and the status light will turn on�

EXITING VALET MODE - Press and release the valet switch once�

The status light, located in the antenna, indicates the system’s current status�

SECURITY SYSTEM STATUS

OFF: The alarm is disarmed and not performing any automatic functions�

FLASHING FAST: One of the automatic arming features is in progress�

AUTOMATIC TRANSMITTER VERIFICATION

Every time you turn on the ignition key, the status light will ash a number of times

equal to the number of controllers programmed to the system� This unique security

feature combats potential thieves (valet attendant, mechanic, etc�) from adding their own

transmitter without your knowledge and accessing your vehicle at a later time�

ALARM ZONE VIOLATION RECALL

If the security system is triggered, upon disarming, the status light will ash

a number of times to indicate exactly which zone(s), has been violated� It will

store the last 2 violated circuits and continually repeat the ash pattern until the vehicle’s

ignition key is turned ON�

2 FLASHES: Hood trigger

3 FLASHES: Door trigger

4 FLASHES: Sensor port trigger

REMOTE START STATUS

FLASHING SLOW: The engine was remote started successfully and is running�

FLASHING FAST: The remote start sequence has begun and is in process of starting�

2 FLASHES, PAUSE: The engine is running while the alarm is armed�

REMOTE START DIAGNOSTICS

The remote start system can also indicate which zone caused the last remote start

cycle to end� To see this indicator, place the system into alarm valet mode� Immediately

after the chirp, the status light will ash to indicate which zone violation occured.

1 FLASH: The hood was opened�

2 FLASHES: Brake pedal was pressed or

3 FLASHES: Bad tach signal or engine overrev�

4 FLASHES: The neutral safety circuit was triggered�

5 FLASHES: The 3D sensor detected vehicle motion�

Anti-Carjacking Protection

The system is equipped with two separate Anti-Carjacking protection features (ignition,

open door, or both)� All are programmable, and must be turned on to operate� Once

activated, the user has 60 seconds to cancel the Anti-Carjacking protection process

(described below)� If Anti-Carjacking is not cancelled, 53 seconds after being activated

the siren will begin to chirp for 7 seconds to alert the user that the system is about to enter

into an alarm condition� The Valet Switch may still be pressed once during this period to

cancel the Anti-Carjacking process�

If the Anti-Carjacking process is not cancelled before the 60 second countdown ex-

pires, the system will enter an alarm condition, sounding the siren and ashing the parking

lights� 30 seconds after this occurs, or should the ignition be turned off in the meantime,

the stater interrupt will engage� Once the system enters the alarm condition, it will not

respond to the transmitter, nor will the system reset automatically after 60 seconds, and it

can only be disengaged by:

Step 1 Turning the vehicle’s ignition off�

Step 2 Turning the ignition back on�

Step 3 Within 5 seconds, perform an Emergency Override using the Valet Switch� If the

SecureCode has been customized, the correct number of Valet Switch presses must be

made�

The different types of Anti-Carjacking protection are:

Ignition Activated Anti-Carjacking activates every time the vehicle’s ignition is turned

on� The Valet Switch must be pressed within 60 seconds of activating to cancel Anti-

Carjacking� This is User Programmable Feature #12�

Door Anti-Carjacking activates when a door is opened after the vehicle is started and

the engine is running� The Valet Switch must be pressed within 60 seconds after activa-

tion to cancel Anti-Carjacking� This is User Programmable Feature #12�

10

If the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert feature is on, programming a transmitter to the

system will activate the “UTA” warning and the extended Status Light indication� For the

next 48 hours, the siren/horn will sound a brief series of chirps every time the vehicle’s

ignition key is turned on�

Special Programming procedure to turn on the UTA feature: Use this method to

program transmitters or optional controllers, and to turn on the Unauthorized Transmitter

Alert feature�

Follow the same steps as the Standard Programming, but on any controller being

programmed instead of pressing the LOCK/UNLOCK button, press the LOCK/UNLOCK

and the START buttons together� This action turns on the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert

feature and at the same time programs the controller to operate the system�

Once the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert feature is turned on, the warning will sound

for 48 hours after any transmitter programming, including the programming session which

was used to turn it on� This feature can only be turned off again by sending the system

back to Omega for a reset�

Step 1 Turn the ignition key “ON”, then “OFF”�

Step 2 Within 5 seconds of step 1, press the valet switch 5 times to access user features

(10 times to access installer features)�

~ The siren/horn will sound and the status light will turn on�

Step 3 Within 10 seconds of step 2, press the valet switch the number of times corre-

sponding with the desired feature’s number�

~ The siren/horn will chirp, the status light, and the parking lights will ash equal

to the selected feature�

Step 4 Change the feature by pressing the transmitter button that corresponds with

the desired setting� The siren/horn will chirp to correspond with the chosen setting�

Programming Features

Standard Programming: Using this method to program additional or replacement

transmitters does not turn on or otherwise affect the Unauthorized Transmitter Alert (UTA)

feature� Before you begin, have all transmitters which are to operate the system at hand�

Step 1 Then, turn the ignition “on”�

Step 2 Within 5 seconds of Step 1, press the Valet Switch 5 times� The siren/horn will

briey sound, conrming that the system is ready to learn a transmitter code.

Step 3 Press the START button on each transmitter one at a time� The system will chirp

the siren/horn once to conrm that each was learned. If a code is not received within 10

seconds of Step 2, the learning process will automatically exit�

Installer Programmable Features

This group of Installer Programmable Features are all accessed as a group in the second

level of features’ programming� These features have a direct affect upon the system’s op-

erations related to the installation and vehicle type AND SHOULD ONLY BE CHANGED

BY THE INSTALLER!!!

Feature #1 - Remote Start Activation From The WHITE/BLUE Wire

1 pulse (press START 1x to program)

2 pulses (press START 2x to program)

3 pulses (press START 3x to program)

4 pulses (press START 4x to program)

This feature changes how remote start is activated from the (-) activation input wire�

Feature #2 - Vehicle Learn

Enabled (press START 1x to program)

Disabled (press START 2x to program)

When enabled, the system will allow the installer to perform vehicle learn (described in the

installation guide). This allows quick programming of several vehicle specic settings.

WARNING: This feature should only be programmed by the installer.

Feature #3 - Engine Detection Method

Progressive Voltage (press START 1x to program)

Voltage (press START 2x to program)

Tach Wire (press START 3x to program)

Data Tach (press START 4x to program)

Crank Only (press START 5x to program)

This feature selects the method in which the remote start monitors the engine’s running

condition in remote start mode� The best method available is auto-detected during the

VEHICLE LEARN process�

“Progressive Voltage” mode is a new version of our popular “tachless hi” method� It

uses a preset crank time (see installer feature #7) and monitors the vehicle’s voltage level

to determine if the engine is running� This setting looks for a voltage increase of 0�3v after

cranking but allows for voltage drops after the engine is running for 2 minutes accomodat-

ing new progressive style alternators� This method is the most universal for all vehicles�

“Voltage” mode looks for a voltage increase of 0�5v after cranking and constantly moni-

tors voltage during remote start operation�

“Tach Wire” Before this setting is programmed, refer to the “Violet/White wire” section of

the installation manual for proper wiring connection and the Tach Learn Procedure� It will

crank the engine for up to 3 seconds or until a tach signal is detected�

“Data Tach” mode operates just like the “Tach Wire” setting except it takes its reading

from the D2D data port instead of using the Violet/White wire� Before using, make sure

this function is supported by the Databus Interface module�

“Crank Only” AKA “blind start” is similar to the “Tachless” settings however, it only makes

one start attempt and does not monitor engine running conditions� This is useful for many

“push-to-start” vehicles�

Feature #4 - Gasoline Or Diesel Engine

Gasoline (press START 1x to program)

Diesel 15 Sec. Delay (press START 2x to program)

Diesel 20 Sec. Delay (press START 3x to program)

Diesel 30 Sec. Delay (press START 4x to program)

This feature changes the system’s timing of the ignition and starter output sequence for

gas or diesel engines� Gasoline: the starter output will occur 3 seconds after the ignitions

turn on� When in “Tachless” mode, the engine running status is determined 10 seconds

after starting� Diesel: the starter output will occur 15, 20, or 30 seconds after the

ignitions turn on (allows for glow plug warming)� When in “Tachless” mode, the

engine running status will be determined 40 seconds after cranking�
