System Signal Paging Features  
A page is the signal the 542 control module sends to the remote  
control as confirmation of receipt of a command.  
When the remote control receives a page it will generate a page  
notification to the user (notifications are audible beeps or remote  
vibration) and the LCD Icons will display the current system  
status.  
Command Page  
When a command (lock/unlock, remote start, or auxiliary  
channel) from the remote control is sent and received, the system  
will send a command page back to confirm receipt.  
note: When the system is in Valet mode, the remote con-  
trol will show the lock (5) and unlock (6) icons, but will  
not generate a command page.  
Page Recognition Mode  
The remote control will leave a zone icon illuminated when it  
has received a triggered response and will wait for you to recog-  
nize the violation. Press any button on the remote control, the  
LCD information and Alarm Page alerts will be cleared.  
note: The remote control buttons will not send a com-  
mand to the system until the alarm page is cleared.

Use of this product in a manner contrary to its intended mode  
of operation may result in property damage, personal injury,  
or death. (1) Never remotely start the vehicle with the vehi-  
cle in gear, and (2) Never remotely start the vehicle with 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  
Electronics dealer in accordance with the Safety Check out-  
lined in the product installation guide. If the vehicle starts  
in gear, cease remote start operation immediately and con-  
sult with the authorized Directed Electronics 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 per-  
forming 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 rein-  
stall the remote start system so that the vehicle does not  
start in gear. All installations must be performed by an  
OPERATION OF THE  
authorized Directed Electronics dealer.

YOU MUST IMMEDIATELY CEASE THE USE OF THE UNIT AND  
SEEK THE ASSISTANCE OF AN AUTHORIZED DIRECTED ELECC-  
TRONICS DEALER TO REPAIR OR DISCONNECT THE INSTALLED  
REMOTE START MODULE. DIRECTED ELECTRONICS WILL NOT BE  
HELD RESPONSIBLE OR PAY FOR INSTALLATION OR REINSTAL-  
LATION COSTS.  
Locking  
Pressing  
for one second arms the system by activating the  
starter kill and locking the doors (if the door locks are connect-  
ed). The horn will honk (if connected) and the parking lights will  
flash once to confirm arming of the system. While the system is  
armed, the status LED will flash once per second. The Failsafe®  
Starter Kill will also prevent the vehicle’s starter from cranking.  
The system can also be programmed to arm the optional Failsafe®  
Starter Kill automatically (called Passive Mode). If the system has  
been programmed for Passive Mode, the Failsafe® Starter Kill will  
automatically activate 30 seconds after the ignition has been  
turned off. After the ignition has been turned off, the status LED  
will flash rapidly to indicate that the system is in Passive Mode.  
17  
2005 Directed Electronics—all rights reserved

If Passive Mode has been programmed on, then it is also possible  
to program the system for Passive Locking. With Passive Locking,  
the vehicle doors lock automatically at the same time that the  
Failsafe® Starter Kill is activated. If Passive Locking is programmed  
on, care must be taken to prevent the keys from being locked in the  
vehicle.  
For Passive Mode to be effective, the Failsafe® Starter Kill relay  
NOTE:  
must be installed.  
Unlocking  
Pressing  
for one second disarms the system and unlocks the  
doors (if connected). The horn will honk twice (if connected) and  
the parking lights will flash twice to confirm disarming of the sys-  
tem. The optional Failsafe® Starter Kill will be deactivated. The sta-  
tus LED will turn off, unless the system is programmed for Passive  
Mode. In Passive Mode, the status LED will flash rapidly when the  
system is disarmed. This indicates that the system will re-engage  
the starter kill and re-lock the doors (if Passive Locking has been  
programmed) in 30 seconds unless the ignition is turned on.

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 vehi-  
cle 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.

start when the WAIT-TO-START indicator on the vehicle's dash  
goes out.)  
4. Once the vehicle has started, it will run for the pre-program-  
med period of time (either 12, 24, or 60 minutes - see

Starter Anti-Grind Circuitry  
Whenever the vehicle is remote started, advanced anti-grind cir-  
cuitry 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.  
NOTE:  
Anti-grind circuitry only works when the remote start system is  
operating the motor and the Failsafe® Starter Kill relay is installed.

Disabling the Remote Start System  
This feature allows your system's remote start unit to be tem-  
porarily 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.

Rapid Resume Logic  
This Directed Electronics 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, VRS®, and Valet Mode.

Glossary of Terms  
Control Unit  
: The “brain” of your system. Usually hidden under-  
neath the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor  
which monitors your vehicle and controls all system functions.  
Failsafe® Starter Kill:  
An automatic switch controlled by your sys-  
tem which 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 kill  
switch itself fails. Your system has feature-ready circuitry for the  
starter kill, however installation may require additional labor.  
LED:  
A red light mounted at a discretionary location inside the  
vehicle. It is used to indicate the status of your system.  
Transmitter:  
A hand-held, remote control which operates the var-  
ious functions of your system.

Valet Switch:  
A small push button mounted at a discretionary loca-  
tion inside the vehicle. It is used to override the Failsafe® Starter  
Kill when a transmitter is lost or damaged, or to enter or exit Valet  
Mode.  
Convenience Expansions  
Listed below are some of the many expansion options available for  
use with your system. Some options may require additional parts  
and/or labor. Please consult with your dealer for a complete list of  
options available for use with this system.  
Domelight Supervision:  
The domelight will illuminate for 30 sec-  
onds each time the system is disarmed using the transmitter.  
This is useful for seeing inside the vehicle at night prior to  
entering it.  
Power Door Lock Control:  
Your system is capable of controlling  
many types of power door lock systems; however, some door lock  
systems may require extra parts. Consult with your dealer to deter-  
mine which type of locks your vehicle uses. If power locks are  
connected, the system can be programmed to lock the doors auto-  
matically 30 seconds after the ignition has been turned off. The  
system can also be programmed to lock the doors when the ignition  
is turned on and to unlock them when the ignition is turned off.  
Power Trunk Release:  
The system’s auxiliary output can be pro-

or hatch. If the factory release is not power-activated, Directed  
Electronics 522T trunk-release solenoid can often be added.  
Power Window Control:  
Power window control is provided with  
Directed Electronics 529T or 530T systems. The 529T system will  
roll up two windows automatically when the system is armed, or  
roll two windows down by using the transmitter. The 530T will roll  
two windows both up and down. The 530T also provides one touch  
switch operation.

For added security, your system can  
be configured to unlock the driver’s door only, leaving the pas-  
senger doors locked. Pressing the unlock button an additional time  
will unlock the passenger doors. This option requires additional  
parts and labor.
