Spread Spectrum Technology This groundbreaking technology uses a transmitted signal that is spread over a wide frequency band and the transmitter abruptly changes (or hops) the frequency in accor-dance with a pseudo random sequence. With this revolutionary technology, the FCC has allowed Firstech, Inc. to use 28X more power than any of the transmitters currently marketed in the US and in most case 56X the power. We are using 560K uV/m in contrast to most transmitters power of 5 K to 20K uV/m. The result is that our range isextended up to 1.25 miles. The FCC allows massive power usage because the spreadspectrum technology makes it possible for many transmitters to communicate withoutinterfering with each other. For the first time in the history of the auto security industry, Firstech has achieved aremarkable technological break-through in utilizing a FCC-approved Spread Spectrumand 900 Mhz Technology.IntroductionThank you for choosing CompuStar, a state-of-the-art Two-Way alarm/remote start system for your vehicle that uses Spread Spectrum Technology (SST).

First, check to see if you have enough battery life in remote-pager unit by looking at thebattery life indicator icon in the bottom right hand corner of your CompuGLO LCD screen.Replace your battery if indicated. A standard AA battery will last 1 to 2 months dependingon usage and the paging mode you choose. i.e.: Vibration mode. You will notice a loss of transmitting distance and backlight function with declining battery life.Second, take the battery out and reinsert within a 10 second period. You have just resetthe computer chip of the remote pager. This may happen sometimes, not always, if yourremote becomes out of sync. Third, in rare instances, a power surge and/or electrical shock will disable the CompuStarsystem when servicing your vehicle. This brief moment of increased electrical power tothe CompuStar brain will erase all the programming functions of your system. In this case, you must reprogram the remote-pager unit to learn the CompuStar brain. Read page 10 for the remote-pager learning procedure. Otherwise, the most likely cause is that the radio frequency mechanism inside yourremote-pager that transmits the 900 MHz frequency is damaged. Physical damage suchas dropping the remote-pager is usually the cause of the crystal not working. In thiscase, you must get a new remote-pager by contacting your nearest CompuStar autho-rized dealer for a replacement. My automatic transmission car is not auto-starting remotely.Most likely, you did not push Button IIfor the required 2 seconds.
