The Time Stamp is the current date, which the PassTime unit uses (along with other things, such as the serial number) to create all codes. The unit’s Time Stamp must match the computer’s time stamp and must be set before a payment code can be accepted. Typically, you need to set the Time Stamp only during the initial installation or if power has been removed from the unit for more than five days. To set the unit for the number of days needed, the dealer must enter two codes when initializing the unit: the Set Date code followed by a payment code. Why do you need the serial number? In addition to the Time Stamp, the system also uses a serial number to generate codes, which are specific to the unit’s serial number. In order to generate a code for a unit, you must have the serial number of that unit. The serial number is located on the top of the unit, and each unit comes with an addition serial number label for the car visor or door jam. Can I program a specific number of warning days? The unit can be programmed for a specific number of warning days. When programming a unit, you will be prompted to enter a number of regular days, warning days, and emergency days. You can program up to 90 regular days, 90 warning days and nine emergency days. When the unit enters the warning period, it will sound the warning alert every time the vehicle is started and turned off. The last day before unit is disabled, it will emit a different “French Ambulance” warning. Does the unit comply with Right to Cure laws? The PassTime™ Code Generator incorporates the Right to Cure parameters for each state. The unit’s warning period will be programmed to correspond with the state’s Right to Cure laws. Please note that it is an additional feature that must be turned on in the dealer’s site. Can you permanently turn off the anti-theft system? You can turn off the Anti-Theft feature by generating and entering a specific RF code. This was instituted for dealer or rental agencies not interested in the anti-theft system. Can the device be installed on a diesel car? You can put the unit in Diesel mode to accommodate the delayed start in a diesel vehicle with the Anti-Theft portion of the PassTime™ device. To do so, generate a Turn On Diesel Mode code from the user interface. How do I enter a Reset code? You must be in the car with a PassTime™ remote to enter a Reset code. Press the CLEAR button; then enter the 15-digit code. The unit will respond with a positive tone upon completion. How do I enter a Payment code? You must be in the car with a PassTime™ remote to enter a payment code. Press the PAY button; then enter the nine-digit code. The unit will respond with a positive tone upon completion. Do I need to press the PAY button before entering an Emergency code? No, just enter 999 999. The unit will respond with a positive tone upon completion. The PassTime™ Plus device will not take an Emergency code if there is time still remaining on the device from the Next/Pay code or a prior Emergency code. Glossary Anti-Theft Feature The PassTime unit may include a state-of-the-art anti-theft system. Anti-theft mode is enabled by default, but can be disabled during the setup of a new customer account or later as a Reset code. If the Anti-Theft feature has been disabled, it can also be enabled with a Reset code. For detailed information, see the PassTime Online Code Management System User Reference Manual. Code Generator The PassTime application that generates the codes used by the PassTime units. Daily Code Report Lists codes generated on a specific day. Diesel Mode Allows start-up time necessary for diesel vehicles in conjunction with the Anti-Theft Mode. To change the Diesel mode (On/Off) for an existing account, go to the Reset Code screen from the Customer Detail screen. Divisions The Divisions function assists dealerships with multiple sites to allow viewing of some or all of their accounts by location. Division access is based on the user’s site login permissions as configured during setup of each user account. A user can have one or all divisions associated to that login ID. Users without Divisions access will not have the Divisions option display on their viewed screens. Double-Chirp Sound indicating the vehicle is ready to start. Emergency Codes Six-digit number (999 999) that allows use of the vehicle for a 24-hour period. Emergency Days Number of days a customer can enter the emergency code after the unit has disabled the vehicle starter. Each code allows 24 hours of operation.

To change the Set Date code for an existing account, go to the Reset Code screen from the Customer Detail screen. Terminated Accounts Inactive customer accounts.
