active arming  
You can arm the system by pressing  
of your transmitter for  
one second. When the system arms, 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 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 status LED is flashing in groups, see the Diagnostics Section of  
this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Notification.  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved  
11  
 
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  
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 status LED will flash twice as fast as it does  
when the system is armed. At the 20-second point of the count-  
down, 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.  
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).  
When armed your vehicle is protected as follows:  
®
Light impacts trigger the Warn Away signal. When trig-  
gered, 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 sys-

tem with your transmitter if you inadvertently open the door  
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 vehicle’s starter from  
cranking.  
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  
again within five seconds of arming the system will activate the  
Multi-Level Security feature. Each time is pressed again, a  
(only in Standard Configuration)  
different security level is selected. The different security levels are  
selected as follows:  
Press  
Press  
once: The siren chirps once. The system is armed.  
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.  
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.  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved  
13  
 
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 security system can be armed while driving the vehicle!  
Simply press  
on the transmitter 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  
activated. Once you have arrived at your destination, the system  
will disarm when the ignition is turned off. The siren will chirp  
twice and the LED will then stop flashing. The system can also  
.
be disarmed at any time by pressing  
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.

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 conve-  
nience, in case the system is accidentally triggered.  
disarming without a transmitter  
If your remote transmitter is lost or damaged, you can manually  
disarm your vehicle security system. To disarm the system  
without a transmitter, you must have the vehicle's ignition key  
®
and know where the Valet switch is located. Be sure to check  
with your installer at the time of installation for both the loca-  
®
tion and the preset response (1-5 presses) of the Valet switch.  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved

To disarm the security system,  
turn the ignition to the ON posi-  
tion. Press the Valet button the  
preset number of times (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_____________________________________  
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.  
silent mode  
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. Turn the ignition on.  
2. Turn the ignition off.

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.  
important!  
(1) Never remote start your vehicle when the  
keys are in the ignition, except when performing Valet  
Take-Over, and (2) Never start the vehicle if it is not in  
either PARK or NEUTRAL.  
To remote start the vehicle:  
1. Press  
on the transmitter twice within 3 seconds.  
2. The parking lights will flash to confirm that the vehicle will  
attempt to start.  
3. In gasoline vehicles, the engine will start 4 seconds after the  
parking lights flash. In diesel vehicles, the engine will start  
when the WAIT-TO-START indicator on the vehicle's dash  
goes out or the programmed delay has ended.

4. Once the vehicle has started, it will run for the pre-program-  
med period of time (either 12, 24, or 60 minutes - see  
Programming Options section of this guide) or until a shut-  
down input is triggered.  
important!  
It is unsafe to operate a vehicle’s motor in a  
garage or other closed off area. Breathing the exhaust  
from the vehicle is hazardous to your health. Never acti-  
vate the remote start in an enclosed space.  
When you are ready to drive the vehicle:  
1. Insert the ignition key and turn  
it to the ON (not START) posi-  
tion.  
2. Press the brake pedal.  
note: If the brake pedal is pressed before the key is in the  
ON position, the engine will shut down.  
While the vehicle is running during remote start operation, the  
system will monitor the vehicle and will automatically shut down

valet take-over  
The Valet Take-Over feature allows the vehicle to remain running  
after the key has been removed from the ignition. This feature is  
useful for occasions when you wish to exit and lock the vehicle  
for short periods of time, but would like to leave the motor  
running and the climate controls on.  
To perform Valet Take-Over:  
1. Before turning off the engine, press and release  
twice  
within 3 seconds on the transmitter (or press and release the  
optional momentary switch). Then wait five seconds.  
2. Turn the ignition key to the OFF position. (The engine will  
stay running.)  
3. The engine will run until the pre-programmed time elapses  
or a shut-down input is received. (See the previous Remote  
Start section for a complete list of shut-down inputs.)  
note: This feature will not work if the brake pedal is  
being pressed.  
short-run/turbo  
Short run turbo mode keeps the engine running after arriving at  
you destination for a programmable period of 1, 3, 5 or 10  
minutes. This allows the system’s timer to conveniently cool  
down the turbo after you have left the vehicle.  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved

To activate:  
1. Park the vehicle and set parking brake.  
2. Remove your foot from the brake pedal and leave the engine  
running.  
3. Press and release the  
and  
buttons at the same time.  
4. The lights will flash to indicate the remote start has entered  
short run turbo mode.  
5. Turn off the key, the engine will keep running.  
6. Exit and secure the vehicle.  
7. The engine will turn off after the programmed run time.  
timer/temperature mode  
By pressing the remote  
and  
buttons the parking  
lights will flash 4 times and then start the vehicle and run for the  
set duration in timer mode. The remote start can be shut off by  
the transmitter by pressing the remote start button  
and  
remain in timer mode, but if any other shut down zones or the  
ignition becomes active the timer mode will cancel.  
1. Press Timer mode buttons.  
2. The vehicle will confirm with 4 parking light flashes.  
3. A 1-second delay will start.  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved

duration, unless shut down by the remote start button . If  
shut down with the remote start button  
system will remain in timer mode.  
the  
5. The system will start every 3 hours until canceled by the  
brake, hood, or neutral safety shut-down wires.  
!
important Timer Mode should be used only in  
open areas. Never start and run the vehicle in an  
enclosed space such as a garage or carport.  
To exit timer mode, turn the ignition switch on any time the  
engine is running. The parking lights will flash 4 times, indi-  
cating timer mode has been exited.  
If the system is set up to start in temperature mode, the vehicle  
will start at the specified elapsed time but only if the temperature  
is less than 0 degrees Fahrenheit.  
note: The low temperature start operation will automat-  
ically exit after 18 hours..  
safety features  
This system has several important safety features to ensure proper  
operation of the motor and prevent accidental damage to the  
engine or its components.  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved  
23  
 
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.  
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.  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved  
24  
 
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,  
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 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.  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved  
25  
 
The vehicle doors are protected by NPC differently. If your secu-  
rity system is triggered by an open door for three full cycles, the  
system will bypass the doors 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 igni-  
tion. 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 disarming, NPC has been engaged. If you  
wish to clear the NPC memory, turn the ignition on.  
diagnostics  
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  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved  
26  
 
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.  
note: Bypass Notification does not occur when the sys-  
tem is in Silent Mode or if the notification chirps have  
been programmed off by the installer.  
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 status LED will indicate  
which zone was involved (see Table of Zones section). The secu-  
rity 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 system’s status as  
described below.

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.  
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 use a mathematical formula called  
an algorithm to change their code 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 remote has been pressed many times out  
of range of the vehicle, or the battery has been removed, it may fall  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved  
29  
 
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 automatically re-sync and  
respond to the transmitters normally.  
high frequency  
Your system transmits and receives at 434 MHz. This provides a  
cleaner spectrum with less interference and a more stable signal.  
Enjoy a phenomenal increase in range, even in areas with high  
radio interference.  
owner recognition  
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 transmitter that is used with the system. Then, whenev-  
er 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.  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved  
30  
 
note: Owner Recognition cannot be programmed with-  
out a 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, 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 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 LED will flash at half its  
normal rate, decreasing the system's current draw.  
Power Saver in Valet Mode: When the system enters Valet  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved  
31  
 
Mode the 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 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.  
programming options  
Programming options control your system's normal, operational  
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.

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

and unlock are independent features that can be  
programmed separately.

on  
Forced passive arming  
or 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.  
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.  
30  
Full trigger response  
or 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

gered response can be programmed for any duration ranging  
from 1 to 180 seconds.

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 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 trans-  
mitter. 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 Chirp siren 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  
6 decibels quieter  
full volume or  
than the full alarm blast.  
12, 24, or 60 minute run time. your system can be

security & convenience expansions  
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 vehicle’s hood from being opened  
without a key, keeping thieves away from the system’s 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 vehicle’s trunk or hatch.  
Although the on-board relay can control most power trunk re-  
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 Video’s  
MCB1000 Multi-Channel Controller, featuring on-screen secu-  
rity system programming and zone trigger information.

glossary of terms  
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 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 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.  
LED: A red 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.  
Transmitter: A hand-held, remote control which operates the  
various functions of your system.  
© 2005 directed electronics—all rights reserved  
37  
 
Trigger or Triggered Sequence: This is what happens when the  
alarm “goes offor “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 mounted at a discretionary  
location inside the vehicle. It is used to override the starter inter-  
rupt when a transmitter is lost or damaged, or to enter or exit  
Valet Mode.  
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.
