security system. This system has been designed to provide years of
trouble-free operation. By carefully reading this guide prior to
using your system, you will maximize the use of this product and
its features.
System Maintenance

Your vehicle security system has no specific maintenance requirements. The remote is powered by a lightweight 3-volt lithium
battery that will last approximately one year under normal use.
When the battery begins to weaken, the LED on the remote will dim
and you will notice reduced operating range when using the
2004 Directed Electronics, Inc.

remote. To access the battery for replacement, remove the rear

cover of the remote with a small, flat-blade screwdriver.

Using Your System

The remote buttons indicated in this manual correspond to a standard configuration remote, unless otherwise specified.
Arming

You can arm the security system by pressing

for one second.

When the system arms, you will hear a short siren sound (chirp)
and the parking lights will flash once. If the power door locks are
AUX Once armed, the
controlled by the system, the doors will also lock.

LED system status indicator will flash once per second to indicate
that the system is actively protecting your vehicle. If you hear a
second chirp after arming and notice that the LED system status
indicator is flashing in a grouped pattern, this signals Bypass
Notification. Bypass Notification is described in detail in the
Diagnostics section of this manual.
Your security system can also be programmed for Passive Arming.
With Passive Arming, the system automatically arms itself 30 sec6

2004 Directed Electronics, Inc.

onds after the ignition has been turned off and the last door has
been closed. During the 30-second Passive Arming countdown, the
LED system status indicator will flash twice as fast as it does when
the system is armed. If the system is programmed for Passive
Arming, care must be taken to prevent the keys from being locked
in the vehicle.
NOTE: If any protected entry point, such as a door or switch-protected
trunk or hood, is open, Passive Arming will not engage. Additionally, each
time a sensor is triggered during the Passive Arming countdown, the
countdown starts over.

Arming your security system protects your vehicle to the following

degrees:

Light impacts trigger a warn-away response, causing the siren

to chirp and the parking lights to flash for a few seconds.
Heavy impacts trip a trigger sequence, which consists of the
siren sounding continuously and the parking lights flashing
for 30 seconds.
If a door is opened, the siren immediately starts chirping and
the parking lights start flashing to provide an instant
response. Three seconds later, the siren output changes to a
continuous blast. This two-stage progressive response allows
you time to disarm the security system with your remote, in
case the door is inadvertently opened while the system is
armed.
Turning on the ignition key triggers the same two-stage progressive response as opening a door.
The fault-proof starter interrupt prevents the vehicles starter
from cranking.

2004 Directed Electronics, Inc.

Disarming

Press

to disarm the security system when it is already armed.

If the power locks are controlled by the system, the doors will also
unlock. Disarming is confirmed when the parking lights flash twice
AUX
and the
siren emits two chirps. The LED system status indicator will

also stop flashing. The siren chirping either four or five times when
disarming indicates Tamper Alert, which is described in the
Diagnostics section of this guide.
Disarming Without a Remote

If your remote is lost or damaged, you can manually disarm your

vehicle security system. To disarm the system without a remote,
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 the location of the Valet switch.
To disarm the security system,
turn the ignition key on and
press the Valet switch within
15 seconds. The system should

DRW-35

now disarm. If the system does not disarm, you may have waited
too long to press the Valet switch; turn the ignition off and
repeat the process.

Panic Mode

If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can press

for

1.5 seconds to trigger Panic Mode on your security system

AUXand
attract attention. The siren will sound and the parking lights will
flash for 30 seconds. To stop the Panic Mode at any time, press
or

AUX
Remote-Controlled Silent Arm/Disarm
AUX

Use remote-controlled silent arm/disarm to temporarily turn off

the arm or disarm chirps by briefly pressing AUX before either
arming or disarming. The confirmation chirp(s) will then be eliminated for that one operation only. To permanently turn off the arm
and disarm chirps, contact your installation dealer.
NOTE: The warn-away response to lighter impacts is bypassed if the
system is armed using remote-controlled silent arm/disarm. This ensures
that the siren does not chirp in an environment where you do not want
chirps to be emitted. The system is still capable of being triggered by
heavier impacts; only the warn-away response generated by light impacts
is bypassed.

Valet Mode

Valet Mode prevents your security system from arming and triggering either automatically or with the remote. In Valet Mode, the
system will not arm, but all convenience functions (door locks,
trunk release, etc.) remain operational. This feature is useful when
washing or servicing your vehicle. You can access Valet Mode
either manually or from the remote.
To enter or exit Valet Mode with the Valet switch:
2004 Directed Electronics, Inc.

1. Turn the ignition on.

2. Turn the ignition off.
3. Press and release the
Valet switch within 10

4. Press

again.
AUX

The LED system status indicator will light solidly if you have entered
Valet Mode and will turn off if you have exited Valet Mode.
AUX

Nuisance Prevention Circuitry

Your security system has Nuisance Prevention Circuitry (NPC) to

prevent annoying false alarms. This circuitry is designed to prevent
repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pinswitches or environmental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers, airport
noise, etc.
Here's how it works: If the alarm is triggered by the same sensor
or switch three times within a 60 minute period, your system inter10

2004 Directed Electronics, Inc.

prets this pattern of triggers as false alarms. After the third trigger, the 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 is triggered again while it is
already being bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start
over. This ensures that a sensor that is continually being triggered
will remain bypassed.
The vehicle doors are protected differently by NPC. If your security system is triggered by an open door for three, full 30-second
cycles (one and one half minutes), the system will bypass the
doors until the trigger ceases.
NOTE: Arming and disarming the system does not reset the NPC. The only
ways to reset a bypassed zone are for that zone not to be triggered for
60 minutes or to turn the ignition key on. When testing your system, it
is important to remember that NPC can cause zones to be bypassed and
appear to not work. If five chirps are heard when disarming the system,
NPC has been engaged. To clear the NPC memory, simply turn the ignition key on.

Diagnostics
The microprocessor at the heart of your system has the ability to
constantly monitor all of the switches and sensors connected to it.
It can detect any faulty switches or sensors and prevent them from
disabling the entire system. It can also record and report any triggers that occur when you are away from your vehicle.

2004 Directed Electronics, Inc.

11

Arming Diagnostics

If the system is armed at the same time that an input is active

(door opening, sensor triggering, etc.), you will hear one chirp to
indicate arming and a second chirp a few seconds later to indicate
Bypass Notification. A Bypass Notification chirp means that the
system ignores the input that was active when the system was
armed, until that input ceases. Three seconds after that input
ceases, the system will resume normal monitoring. For example, if
your vehicle has an interior light exit delay and you arm the system before the light turns off, you may hear a Bypass Notification
chirp. Three seconds after the light turns off, however, normal
monitoring resumes.
NOTE: Bypass Notification does not occur when the system is in remotecontrolled silent arm/disarm mode or if the chirps have been programmed
not to sound.

Disarming Diagnostics

Your system has a Tamper Alert feature that notifies you of system
triggers that occur while you are away from your vehicle. If you
hear four chirps when you disarm, this indicates that the system
was triggered in your absence. If you hear five chirps when you
disarm, this indicates that a specific zone was triggered so many
times that the NPC has bypassed that zone. In both cases, the
pattern of the flashing LED system status indicator indicates which
zone was triggered (see Table of Zones). The LED does not, however, report when warn-away responses have activated; it only
reports triggered sequences. The system retains this information in
12

2004 Directed Electronics, Inc.

its memory and will continue to chirp four or five times each time
the system is disarmed, until the next time the ignition is turned on.
Table of Zones

A zone is represented by the number of LED flashes used by the

system to identify a particular type of input. Standard input assignments are listed in the following table, along with spaces to write
in any optional sensors or switches that you have had installed.

Stealth Coding
Technology

The receiver and remote use mathematical formulas called algorithms to change their codes each time the remote is used. This
Stealth Coding Technology has been developed to increase the
security of the unit. By following this set code sequence, the
receiver and remote stay synchronized, even if the remote is used
out of range of the vehicle. If, however, the remote is pressed many
times out of range, or the battery is removed, the remote may get
temporarily out of sync and fail to operate the system. To resynchronize the remote, simply press

several times within range

of the vehicle. The system will automatically resynchronize and the

remote will respond normally.
AUX

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.

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.
This system's programming options are listed below, with the factory default settings in bold:

Active arming (only with the remote) or passive arming (automatic arming 30 seconds after the last vehicle door is closed).

Active door locking (only when arming with the remote) or

passive door locking (selectable only when Passive Arming
has been programmed).

Arming and disarming confirmation siren chirps can be programmed on or off.

Ignition controlled door lock feature, on or off. With this feature on, the doors will lock three seconds after the ignition
key is turned on, and unlock when the ignition is turned off.
The system also prevents the doors from locking when the
ignition is turned on while any vehicle door is open.

Security & Convenience

Expansions
Listed below are some of the many expansion options available for
use with your system. Please consult your dealer for a detailed
explanation of all the available options.
Audio Sensor: Metal on glass, glass cracking, and breaking glass
produce distinctive acoustic signatures. The 506T audio sensor uses
a microphone to detect these sounds, and then analyzes them with
proprietary acoustic software to determine if the glass has been
tampered with or broken.
Backup Battery: The 520T Backup Battery ensures that the system
stays armed, triggers the alarm and keeps the optional starter
interrupt active if main battery power is disconnected.
Field Disturbance Sensor: An invisible dome of coverage is established by the 508D "radar" sensor. Your security system will respond
to any intrusions into this field by initiating the triggered sequence.
Power Locks: This system offers lock outputs that can control most
manufacturers' power door lock systems. For other systems, additional parts may be required.
Power Trunk Release: The AUX output of the system can operate
a factory power release for the vehicle's trunk or hatch. An optional relay is required. If the factory release is not power-activated,

16

2004 Directed Electronics, Inc.

then Directed Electronics, Inc.'s 522T trunk release solenoid can be

added in most cases.
Power Window Control: Automatic power window control is provided with the 529T and 530T systems. These options operate power
windows, by rolling them up, down, or both up and down. The 530T
also offers one-touch switch operation.
Valet Start System: For the ultimate in convenience, the Valet
Start System can start your vehicle, monitor engine functions and
activate your climate control system with a push of a button! Overrev protection, open-hood lockout, brake pedal shutoff and
automatic timer shutoff are included. (This option is available only
for fuel-injected, automatic-transmission vehicles.)

Installation Options
Installation options may require additional parts or labor. Please
consult your dealer.
Interior Light Illumination: The interior domelight can be configured to illuminate for 30 seconds after the alarm is disarmed. If
the system is rearmed during that 30-second period, the interior
light illumination will terminate until the alarm is disarmed again.
This option may require a relay to be added to some vehicles.

Glossary of Terms
Control Module: The "brain" of your security system. Usually hidden underneath the dash area of the vehicle. It houses the microprocessor that monitors your vehicle and controls all of the security systems functions.
Fault-Proof Starter Interrupt: Located on-board the control module,
this is an automatic switch controlled by the security system that
prevents the 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 fails.
Impact Sensor: A dual-stage shock sensor, located on-board the
control module, that detects impacts to the vehicle.
Input: Any physical connection to the security system. An input
can be provided through a sensor, pinswitch or by existing systems
in the vehicle, such as ignition or courtesy lights.
LED: A red light mounted inside the vehicle, at a location determined by the installer. The LED indicates the status of your system
and also reports triggers and faults in the system or sensors.
Siren: A noise generating device, usually installed in the engine
compartment of the vehicle. The siren generates the chirps and
tones heard when the system is triggered.
Remote: A hand-held, transmitter control that operates the various
functions of the security system.
18

2004 Directed Electronics, Inc.

Trigger or Triggered Sequence: The "setting off" or "tripping" of

the alarm. A triggered sequence consists of the siren sounding and
the parking lights flashing for 30 seconds.
Valet Switch: A small, push-button switch mounted inside the
vehicle, at a location determined by the installer. This switch is
used to override the alarm when a remote is lost or damaged, or
can be used to put the system into Valet Mode.
Warn-Away Response: Light impacts to the vehicle generate the
warn-away response, which consists of several seconds of siren
chirps and flashing parking lights.
Zone: A zone is a separate input that the alarm recognizes as
unique. Each input to the system is connected to a particular
zone. Two or more inputs may share the same zone.
