RE: FCC ID EZSDEI487
Dear Sir or Madam,
This letter is to address the following for the 487VPX transceivers:
1. Learn routine for replacement transmitters
2. System transmission frequency range
3. Data transmission duty cycle description
4. Manuals
1. Refer to installation guide pages 35 to 38.
2. This transmitter is a single frequency device. It has a crystal controlled PLL which generates the
RF carrier. The crystal based oscillator can maintain a center frequency of 433.92MHz within a
+/-35KHz tolerance. The receiver operated by this transmitter is a single band receiver tuned to
433.92MHz and only capable of receiving this frequency.
3. The 487VPX is a data transmission device. Its protocol consists of 12 preamble bits (400us each)
and 66 data bits (400us or 800us each, they are random) for a total of 78 bits. So the calculation
for the duty cycle becomes:
(12 x 400us)+(66x800us)= 57.60ms within a 100ms period
The worst case scenario calculation is assured by the fact that we used 800us for all 66 data bits
as they can be either 400us or 800us.
4. There are no dedicated manuals for this device. The 487VPX transceiver is part of several car
alarm and remote start systems. Included are the installation and owner’s guides for the system
with the most features which is representative of other, less feature rich systems. The owner’s
guide of all systems have a section covering the operation of the transceiver. Please refer to
pages 5 to 12 in the owner’s guide.
Sincerely,
Minas Minassian
RF Engineer

This system needs no specific maintenance beyond remote
control battery replacement. The remote is powered by a 1.5V
AAA battery.
Low Battery Notification
If the battery is low (and this feature is programmed On) the 2-
way remote will emit 2 long beeps 5-seconds after a transmission
is completed. The 2 long beeps will repeat every 25 seconds up to
3 times (or until a 2-way remote button is pressed).
Battery Replacement
Gently pull the end of the battery door away from the top of the
remote control then slide the door up to expose the battery and
remove the expired battery. Place the new battery into the remote
control observing the correct polarity. When power is returned
the remote control will light all icons and generate melodies
(representing all beeper tones).

The receiver uses a computer-based Learn Routine to learn the 2-
way remote buttons. This makes it possible to assign any 2-way
remote button to any receiver function. The 2-way remote
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 2-way remote.

The remote start system operates at 434 MHz and incorporates
Directed’s proprietary XHF2 out-board technology transceiver. The
high frequency combined with Binary Data communication achieves
superior range with two-way communication.
system signal paging features
A page is the signal the control module sends to the remote control
as confirmation of receipt of a command or alarm system status.
When the remote control receives a page it will generate a page noti-
fication to the user (notifications are audible beeps) and the LED
Icons will display the current system status.
Command Page
When a command (arm/disarm, remote start, or auxiliary
channel) from the remote control is sent and received, the system
will send a command page back to confirm receipt.
Alarm Page
If the alarm system is triggered while armed, an Alarm Page will
be sent to the remote control. When the remote receives an
Alarm Page, the LED icons will display the alarm system status
information and the remote control will generate beeps.
An Alarm Page alert is a series of 10 or 4 rapid beeps and the Red
LED will illuminate. This will repeat every 100 seconds to alert
the user that the alarm system was triggered and will continue
until the alarm page is cleared.
11
© 2004 directed electronics, inc.
If the shock sensor or optional sensor has triggered the alarm the
remote will display the alarm page with 6 Red LED flashes and
10 rapid beeps.
If the trunk, door, ignition, or hood triggered the alarm the
remote will display the alarm page with the Red LED illumi-
nating for 3-seconds and 4 rapid beeps (repeated 5 times).
Page Recognition (Acknowledgement)
To clear a page alert/notification, quickly press any button on the
remote control. This can be performed at any time during or after
the page notification has occurred.
The remote control will not send a command to the system at
this time; it will only clear future repeats of the page notification.
The next time a button is pressed on the remote control it will
send a command to the system.
Out of Range Notification
If a command is issued from the remote, but the remote is
beyond the range of the vehicle to receive the command, the
remote responds with 2 sets of 3 quick beeps and the Green LED
will flash 6-times.

the keys in the ignition. The user must also have the neutral
safety feature of the vehicle periodically checked, wherein the
vehicle must not remotely start while the car is in gear. This
testing should be performed by an authorized Directed dealer
in accordance with the Safety Check outlined in the product
installation guide. If the vehicle starts in gear, cease remote
start operation immediately and consult with the authorized
Directed dealer to fix the problem.
After the remote start module has been installed, contact
your authorized dealer to have him or her test the remote
start module by performing the Safety Check outlined in the
product installation guide. If the vehicle starts when
performing the Neutral Safety Shutdown Circuit test, the
remote start unit has not been properly installed. The remote
start module must be removed or the installer must properly
reinstall the remote start system so that the vehicle does not
start in gear. All installations must be performed by an autho-
rized Directed dealer. OOPPEERRAATTIIOONN OOFF TTHHEE RREEMMOOTTEE

active arming
You can arm the system by pressing of your 2-way remote
for one second. When the system arms, from the vehicle you will
hear a short siren sound, or chirp, and see the parking lights flash
once. If the power door locks are controlled by the system, the
doors will also lock. While the system is armed, the in-vehicle
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 note that the in-vehicles status
LED is flashing in groups, see the Diagnostics Section of this
guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification.
The remote responds to active arming with one beep and the
Orange LED will flash 3-times to indicate successful arming of
the system.
If after 2-seconds the remote beeps once and the Orange and
Red LEDs flash 3-times, the system has detected an active sensor
that should be checked.
If after 2-seconds the remote beeps once, the Orange LED flashes
6-times and the Red LED lights for 3-seconds, the system has
detected an open door, hood or trunk and has been bypassed.
passive arming
The system 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
16 © 2004 directed electronics, inc.
and the system detects that you have left the vehicle by opening and
closing a door. Whenever the system is in its 30-second passive
arming countdown, the in-vehicle status LED will flash twice as
fast as it does when the system is armed. At the 20-second point of
the countdown, the siren will chirp to indicate that the system is
about to arm. At the 30-second point, the parking lights will flash
to indicate that the system is armed.
The remote responds to passive arming with one beep and the
Orange LED will flash 3-times to indicate successful arming of
the system.
When armed your vehicle is protected as follows:
Light impacts trigger the Warn Away®signal. When triggered,
the siren chirps and the parking lights flash for a few seconds.
Heavy impacts trip a Triggered Sequence. The sequence
consists of the siren sounding continuously and the parking
lights flashing for a pre-programmed period, which can range
in duration from 1 to 180 seconds.
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 system
with your 2-way remote if you inadvertently open the door
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.) Addi-
tionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the arming
countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.
17
© 2004 directed electronics, inc.
while the system is armed, while still providing instant re-
sponse (even if the door is immediately closed).
Turning on the ignition key will trip the same progressive re-
sponse as opening a door.
The optional starter kill prevents the vehicles starter from cranking.
Any full trigger of the alarm system will immediately send an
alarm page to your remote informing you that your vehicle
should be checked.
multi-level security arming
Multi-Level Security Arming allows you to select which of the
system's inputs or sensors will be active and which will be
bypassed when the system is armed. (See
Table of Zones
section
of this guide.) Pressing (only in Standard Configuration)
again within five seconds of arming the system will activate the
Multi-Level Security feature. Each time is pressed again, a
different security level is selected. The different security levels are
selected as follows:
Press once: The siren chirps once. The system is armed.
Press a second time within five seconds: The siren chirps
twice followed by a long chirp. Zone 2 is now bypassed.
Press a third time within five seconds: The siren chirps
three times followed by a long chirp. Zone 4 is now bypassed.
Press a fourth time within five seconds: The siren chirps four
times followed by a long chirp. Zones 2 and 4 are now bypassed.
18 © 2004 directed electronics, inc.
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.
After each press of the to reach the next level of security, the
remote will emit normal arm notification (1 beep and 3 flashes of
the Orange LED). For easiest operation in reaching each level of
security, press immediately aafftteerreach notification.
arming while driving
Your security system can be armed while driving the vehicle!
Simply press on the 2-way remote for two seconds while the
vehicle is running. The siren will chirp once to indicate that the
security system is armed, and then once more to indicate that the
ignition is on. The system will not respond to any input except the
door triggers, and the starter kill relay (if installed) will not be acti-
vated. Once you have arrived at your destination, the system can
be disarmed by pressing the or by turning the ignition Off.
The siren will chirp twice and the in-vehicle status LED will then
stop flashing. The system can also be disarmed at any time by
pressing ..
The remote will respond with the normal arming response plus a
diagnostic notification because the ignition is On. When disarmed
the remote will respond with the normal disarming response.
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.
19

disarming
To disarm the security system, press . You will hear two
chirps, and the parking lights will flash twice. If the power locks
are controlled by the system, the doors will also unlock. The siren
chirping either four or five times when disarming indicates
Tamper Alert, which is described in the Diagnostics Section of
this guide.
The remote will indicate disarm notification with 2 beeps and 3
flashes of the Orange LED. If disarming after the system has been
triggered, the remote control will send a diagnostic notification as
a reminder. These diagnostic notifications are:
1. If a sensor triggered the system, the remote will beep 4-times
and the Orange and Red LEDs flash 3 times.
2. If a switch (Zone 1, 3, 5, or 6) triggered the system, the
remote will beep 4-times, the Orange LED will flash 6-times
and Red LED will illuminate for 3 seconds.
3. If the system was triggered so many times that NPC is active
the remote will emit the above notifications with 5 beeps
instead of 4.
high security disarm
This system includes High Security Disarm feature. If the system
is triggered this feature allows the user to silence the siren and
reset the system to the armed state without having to visually
checking the system status.
After receiving an alarm page:
20 © 2004 directed electronics, inc.
1. First press any button on the remote to clear the alarm page.
2. Press either the or button again and the High
Security disarm feature will be activated. The siren will be
silenced and the system will reset to the armed state.
3. Pressing the button once more will fully disarm the
system and allow the vehicle to be accessed.
disarming without a 2-way remote
If your 2-way remote is lost or damaged, you can manually
disarm your vehicle security system. To disarm the system
without a 2-way remote, you must have the vehicle's ignition key
and know where the Valet®button is located. Be sure to check
with your installer at the time of installation for both the location
and the preset response (1-5 presses) of the Valet®button.
To disarm the security system,
turn the ignition to the ON posi-
tion. Press and release the Valet®
button the preset number of times
DRW-35
notes: The first press of the remote button, while the
remote is beeping, only clears the alarm page (no com-
mand is sent to the vehicle).
The transceiver transmits immediately upon system trig-
ger and does not allow disarm during the first 6 seconds
after trigger.
The 2-way remote will respond with a number of beeps
and LED flashes according to whether a pinswitch, sen-
sor, activated the alarm (and also if NPC is active).
21

(one to five times) within 15 seconds. After five seconds, the system
will 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 Presses_____________________________________
The remote will indicate disarm notification with 2 beeps and 3
flashes of the Orange LED.
silent mode
To temporarily turn off the vehicles arm or disarm chirps, use
Silent Mode™. Simply press for less than 1-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.
The remote responds with the normal arm/disarm notifications
in silent mode. (If the remote has beeps programmed On, the
remote will beep.)
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.
important! The Valet®button can be programmed to
respond to 1-5 presses for the disarm function. You must
check with the installer to verify the programming for
your individual unit.

panic mode
If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract
attention by triggering the system with your 2-way remote. Just
press for 3-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 or on the 2-way remote.
The remote responds with one flash of the Red LED upon
entering Panic Mode and two flashes of the Red LED upon
exiting Panic Mode.
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 2-way remote, but all
convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will
continue to work normally.
To enter or exit Valet®Mode:
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. Turn the ignition off.
3. Press and release the Valet®

remote start
This feature allows you to remotely start and run your vehicle for
a programmable period of time. This makes it possible to warm
up the engine, as well as adjust the interior temperature of the ve-
hicle with the climate control system. If interior heating or
cooling is desired, the climate controls must be preset, and the
fan blower must be set to the desired level prior to remote starting
the vehicle.
iimmppoorrttaanntt!! (1) Never remote start your vehicle when the
keys are in the ignition, except when performing Valet®

ssaaffeettyy ffeeaattuurreess
This system has several important safety features to ensure
proper operation of the motor and prevent accidental damage to
the engine or its components.
starter anti-grind circuitry
Whenever the vehicle is remote started, advanced anti-grind
circuitry prevents the starter from engaging, even if the key is
turned to the start position. This prevents damage to the starter
motor if the key is turned to the start position during remote
start operation.
30 © 2004 directed electronics, inc.
disabling the remote start system
This feature allows your system's remote start unit to be
temporarily disabled to prevent the vehicle from being remote
started accidentally. This feature is useful if the vehicle is being
serviced or stored in an enclosed area. To disable the remote
start, move the shutdown toggle switch to the OFF position.
The switch can be installed in a location of your choice. Check
with your installer for recommended locations.
Location of Shutdown Switch____________________________
over and under rev protection
The system monitors the engine speed and will automatically
shut the engine off if the RPMs rise above or fall below the
programmed levels. This feature prevents damage to the motor
due to fuel delivery system failures or other problems which may
cause the engine to race.
note: The system uses a wire connected to the vehicle to
sense engine speed. This wire must be connected in order
for over and under rev protection to work.
note: Anti-grind circuitry only works when the remote
start system is operating the motor and the Failsafe®
Starter Kill relay is installed.
31

shut down inputs
This security system uses several inputs to shut down the remote
start operation of the motor or prevent remote start if certain
inputs are active. The two most important are hood and brake
inputs. The hood input will prevent the motor from starting, as
well as shut it down, any time the hood is opened. The brake
pedal will shut down the motor at any time during remote start
operation, as well as preventing the remote start from activating
while it is being pressed.
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,
NPCignores, 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 security system while it
is being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over.
This ensures that a sensor that is continually being triggered will
remain bypassed.
32 © 2004 directed electronics, inc.
The vehicle doors are protected by NPCdifferently. If your
security system is triggered by an open door for three full cycles,
the system will bypass the doors until the trigger ceases.
ddiiaaggnnoossttiiccss
The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly
monitoring all of the switches and sensors connected to it. It is
designed to detect any faulty switches and sensors and prevents
them from disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will
also record and report any triggers that occurred during your
absence. Refer to the System Status Chirps and Table of Zones
sections of this guide for diagnostic information.
arming diagnostics
If the security system is armed at the same time that an input is
active (such as a door opening or sensor triggering), you will hear
one siren chirp to indicate arming and a second siren chirp to
indicate Bypass Notification. A Bypass Notification chirp means
that the security system ignores the input that was active when
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 igni-
tion. If testing your system, it is important to remember
that the NPCprogramming can cause zones to be
bypassed and appear to stop working. If five chirps are
heard when disarming, NPChas been engaged. If you
wish to clear the NPCmemory, turn the ignition on.
33

the system was armed, until that input ceases. Three seconds
after that input ceases, the security system will resume normal
monitoring. For example, if your vehicle has an interior light exit
delay and you arm your security system before the interior light
turns off, you may hear a second Bypass Notification chirp.
Once the light turns off, however, the security system resumes
normal monitoring.
disarming diagnostics
Extra chirps that are heard when disarming the system are the
Tamper Alert. If four chirps are heard when disarming the
system, then the security system was triggered in your absence. If
five chirps are heard when disarming the system, a zone was trig-
gered so many times that the Nuisance Protection Circuitry™
has bypassed that zone. In either case, the in-vehicle status LED
will indicate which zone was involved (see Table of Zones
section). The security system will retain this information in its
memory and chirp four or five times each time it is disarmed,
until the next time that the ignition is turned on.
system status chirps
The siren will chirp when arming/disarming the system. The
pattern of chirps will audibly report the systems status as
described below.
34 © 2004 directed electronics, inc.
table of zones
A zone is represented by the number of in-vehicle status LED
flashes used by the system to identify a particular type of input.

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 in
the car. Active or triggered zones will be indicated by a pattern
of blinks by the LED.
Example
If zone 3 was active or triggered, the in-vehicle status 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.

The receiver and 2-way remotes use a mathematical formula
called an algorithm to change their code each time the 2-way
remote is used. This technology has been developed to increase
the security of the unit. The control unit knows what the next
codes should be. This helps to keep the 2-way remote “in sync”
with the control unit even if you use the remote control out of
range of the vehicle. However, if the remote has been pressed
many times out of range of the vehicle, or the battery has been
note: Your system stores the last two triggered zones in
memory. If your system has been triggered but the in-
vehicle status LED has been reset by turning on the igni-
tion, your dealer can still recall the last two zones that

removed, it may fall out of sync with the control unit and fail to
operate the system. To re-sync the remote simply press
several times within range of the vehicle. The alarm will auto-
matically re-sync and respond to the 2-way remotes normally.

Owner Recognition is a revolutionary new feature available only
from Directed. Using a Directed Bitwriter, hand-held program-
ming tool, your dealer can program many of the system settings.
The programmer makes it possible to program different settings
for each 2-way remote that is used with the system. Then, when-
ever a specific 2-way remote is used, the system will recall the
settings assigned to that 2-way remote. 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 Bitwriter and the necessary software. Check with
your dealer for more information.

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, and Valet®Mode.

Your system will automatically enter Power Saver Mode while
armed or in Valet®Mode, after a period of time in which no
operation has been performed. This lowers the current draw on
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 in-vehicle status LED will flash
at half its normal rate, decreasing the system's current draw.
38 © 2004 directed electronics, inc.
Power Saver in Valet®Mode: When the system enters Valet®
Mode the in-vehicle status LED illuminates steadily. If the
vehicle is not used (ignition is not turned on) for a one hour
period while the system is in Valet®Mode, the in-vehicle status
LED will shut off. If the system remains in Valet®Mode, the in-
vehicle status LED will come back on the next time the ignition
is turned on and then back off.

set-up. Most options do not require additional parts, but some
may require installation labor.
The following is a list of the programmable options, with the
factory settings in Bold.
AAccttiivveearming (2-way remote only) or passive arming (auto-
matic arming 30 seconds after the last door has been closed).
Arming/disarming siren chirps oonnor off.
The ignition controlled door lock feature oonnor off: When
this feature is programmed on, the doors will lock three
seconds after the ignition is turned on, and unlock when the
ignition is turned off. If your installer is programming the
security system with the Directed Bitwriter, ignition lock
and unlock are independent features that can be
programmed separately.

Passive door locking (with passive arming) or aaccttiivvee ddoooorr
lloocckkiinngg(only when arming with the 2-way remote). Passive
locking allows the vehicle's doors to lock when the security
system passively arms (after the 30-second countdown). This
feature only works if passive arming has been programmed.
Panic mode eennaabblleedd/disabled when the ignition is turned on.
(Some states have laws against sirens sounding in moving cars.)
Forced passive arming oonnor off. If your security 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. Forced passive arming ensures that the
system will be armed if a door has accidentally been left ajar
when leaving the vehicle.
Full trigger response 3300or 60 seconds: This determines how
long the full triggered sequence lasts. Some states have laws
regulating how long a security system can sound before it is
considered a nuisance. If your installer is programming the
security system with the Directed Bitwriter, the full triggered
response can be programmed for any duration ranging from
1 to 180 seconds.
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) on or ooffff. The purpose of
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
disabled 30 seconds after the ignition is turned off. Once the
key is turned off, the in-vehicle status LED will flash slowly
(one-half its normal armed rate) to indicate the AED arming
cycle. Thirty seconds later, the starter will be disabled. To
start the car, it will be necessary to disarm the system with the
2-way remote. It is also possible to disarm the AED feature
by turning the ignition key to the RUN position and pressing
the Valet®button the programmed number of times. AED is
also disabled when the system is in Valet®mode.
Siren tones and chirp volume. The output of the Revenger
Soft Chirpsiren consists of six different tones in sequence.
Any of these tones can be eliminated by a dealer, resulting in a
unique, easily identifiable siren sound. The chirps can be either
full volume or 66 ddeecciibbeellss qquuiieetteerr than the full alarm blast.
The engine can be programmed to run for any duration
ranging from 1 to 60 minutes. 1122 mmiinnuutteessis the default.
After the programmed run time, the engine will shut down
and will not restart, unless in Timer Mode.
While the remote start system is running the engine, the
parking lights of the vehicle can ffllaasshh oonn aanndd ooffffor come on
and light steadily.
note: This feature will only function if the FailSafe®
Starter Kill relay has been installed.

Listed below are some of the many expansion options available.
Please consult your dealer for a complete explanation of all the
options available to you.
Audio Sensor:
Metal on glass, glass cracking, and breaking
glass produce distinctive acoustic signatures. The 506T audio
sensor uses a microphone to pick up sounds, 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 interrupt active if main battery is dis-
connected.
Hood Lock:
Prevents the vehicles hood from being opened
without a key, keeping thieves away from the systems siren, the
battery connections, and other components under the hood.
Field Disturbance Sensor:
An invisible dome of coverage is estab-
lished by installing the 508D “radar” sensor. Your system can react
to any intrusions into this field with the full triggered sequence.
Power Locks:
This system offers lock outputs that can control
some manufacturers' power door lock systems. For other
systems, additional parts may be required.
Power Trunk Release:
The accessory output of the system can op-
erate a factory power release for the vehicles trunk or hatch.
Although the on-board relay can control most power trunk re-
42 © 2004 directed electronics, inc.
leases, sometimes an optional relay is required. If the factory
release is not power-activated, 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. These can operate
power windows, and can roll them up automatically when the
system is armed, roll them down, or both up and down.
Mobile Video:
This system is compatible with Directed Videos
MCB1000 Multi-Channel Controller, featuring on-screen secu-
rity system programming and zone trigger information.

2-Way Remote
: Hand-held, 2-way transceiver which operates the
various functions of your system.
Control Unit:
The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden under-
neath the dash area of the vehicle. The control unit houses the
microprocessor which monitors your vehicle and controls all
system functions.

Fault-Proof Starter Interrupt:
An automatic switch controlled by
your system that prevents the vehicles starter from cranking
whenever the system is armed. The vehicle is never prevented
from cranking when the system is disarmed, in Valet®Mode, or
if the starter interrupt switch itself fails. Your system has feature-
ready circuitry for the starter interrupt, however installation may
require additional labor.
Input:
A physical connection to the system. An input can be
provided by a sensor, pinswitch or by existing systems in the
vehicle, such as ignition or courtesy lights.
In-vehicle status LED:
A light mounted at a discretionary location
inside the vehicle. It is used to indicate the status of your system.
Shock Sensor:
This system has a dual zone shock sensor. This
sensor is mounted in the vehicle and designed to pick up impacts
to the vehicle or glass.
2-Way Remote:
A 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 sequence of your
system consists of the siren sounding and parking lights flashing
for the programmed duration.
Valet®Button:
A small push button switch mounted at a discre-
tionary location inside the vehicle. It is used to override the
starter interrupt when a 2-way remote is lost or damaged, or to
enter or exit Valet®Mode.
44 © 2004 directed electronics, inc.
Warning Zone 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. Often two or more inputs may share the same zone.
