using your system
manual (active) arming
The factory default is active arming. In this mode you can activate, or
arm, the system by locking the doors with your factory keyless entry
transmitter. When the system arms, you will hear a short horn honk and
see the parking lights flash once. While the system is armed, the status
LED will flash about twice a second, showing that the system is active-
ly protecting your vehicle. If you hear a second short horn honk after
arming, and see the status LED flashing in groups, see Diagnostics sec-
tion. This extra short horn honk is called Bypass Notification.
note: If the ignition is turned on within 60 seconds of arming
the system, the system will automatically disarm.
automatic (passive) arming
The system also 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 “sees” you leave 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. When the system arms, you will hear a short horn honk and the
parking lights will flash once. The doors lock (if connected and pro-
grammed for passive locking).
note: Passive arming may qualify for a higher insurance dis-
count. Check with your insurance agent
© 2005 directed electronics, inc.
3
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. Additionally, each time a sensor is triggered during the
arming countdown, the 30-second countdown starts over.
armed protection
When armed, your vehicle is protected as follows:
z
Light impacts to your vehicle will trigger the warn away sig-
nal. The system will pulse the horn and flash the parking
lights for a few seconds.
z
Heavy impacts will trigger the system. The triggered
sequence is 30 or 60 seconds of constant horn honking and
flashing parking lights.
z
If a door is opened, the system will immediately start pulsing
the horn and flashing the parking lights. Three seconds later,
the horn output changes to a continuous blast. This progres-
sive response gives you time to disarm the system with your
transmitter if you inadvertently open the door while the sys-
tem is armed, while still providing instant response (even if
the door is immediately closed).
note: If programmed for instant trigger, the horn will output
full trigger response after the door has been opened (see
Programming Options)
z
Turning on the ignition key triggers the same progressive
response as opening a door.
z
If equipped, the starter interrupt prevents the vehicle’s
starter from cranking.
note: The vehicle may already be equipped with a starter kill
relay from the factory.

disarming
To disarm the system, unlock the doors using your factory keyless trans-
mitter. The horn will sound twice, and the parking lights will flash
twice. If the horn sounds either four or five times when disarming, refer
to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This is called Tamper Alert.
disarming without a transmitter
This feature allows you to override the system without the transmitter
should it be lost, damaged or disabled. To do this, you must have the ve-
hicle's ignition key and know where the Valet® switch is located.
Turn the ignition to the “run”position.
Press and release the Valet® switch, with-
in 10 seconds. After a few seconds the
LED will stop flashing and the vehicle
DRW-35
should start. If it does not, you may have waited too long. Turn the ignition
off and try again.
note: The setting for the number of times the Valet® switch
must be pressed is set in the Programming Section of this
guide.
®
valet mode
You can prevent your system from arming, by using Valet® Mode. This
is very useful when washing the vehicle or having it serviced. In Valet®
Mode, the system will not arm, even with the transmitter, but all con-
venience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will work normally.

To enter or exit Valet® Mode with the Valet® switch:
Turn ignition to “on” position,
turn to “off” position. Press
and release the Valet® switch
then
within 10 seconds. The status
DRW-35
LED will light steady if you
have entered Valet® Mode. To exit Valet® Mode, repeat the steps above.
The LED will turn off when exiting Valet® Mode.
®
remote valet
Remote Valet® is a convenient feature that makes bypassing the securi-
ty system easier. This feature makes it possible to exit or enter Valet®
Mode using your factory keyless transmitter.
1. Open any door.
2. Press LOCK on the transmitter.
3. Press UNLOCK on the transmitter.
4. Press LOCK on the transmitter.
The status LED will stay on if you have entered Valet® Mode, and it will
go out if you exited Valet® Mode.
note: The remote Valet® feature will not work with all factory
keyless entry systems. Some keyless entry systems do not
work with a door open.
panic mode
If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract attention
by triggering the system with your transmitter! If your factory keyless

transmitter does not have a panic button, this system can be pro-
grammed to enable a panic feature (refer to the Programming
Options).
If enabled, just press the lock button on your factory keyless transmit-
ter twice within three seconds to enter Panic Mode. The horn will
sound and the parking lights will flash for 30 seconds. To stop Panic
Mode at any time, press the unlock button on your factory transmitter.
note: The system can also be programmed so that pressing
the lock button twice within three seconds will activate an
optional accessory. If the unit is programmed to activate an
optional accessory, Panic Mode will not be operational.
nuisance prevention circuitry®
Your system has Nuisance Prevention Circuitry® (NPC®). This circuitry
prevents annoying repetitive trigger sequences due to faulty door pin
switches or environmental conditions such as thunder, jackhammers,
airport noise, etc.
Here’s how it works:
The alarm triggers three times. Each time, the same sensor or switch is
triggering the alarm. The three triggers are within 60 minutes of each
other. Your system will interpret this pattern of triggers as false alarms.
After the third trigger, your system ignores, or bypasses, that sensor or
switch (along with any other sensors or switches sharing the same
zone) for 60 minutes.
© 2005 directed electronics, inc.
7
If the bypassed sensor tries to trigger the system while it is being
bypassed, the 60-minute bypass period will start over. This ensures that
a sensor that is continuously triggering will remain bypassed.
Doors are covered differently: If the alarm is triggered by an open door
for three full cycles (one-and-one-half minutes), the doors will be
bypassed 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 ignition. If test-
ing your system, it is important to remember that this circuitry
can cause zones to be bypassed and appear to stop work-
ing. If five chirps are heard when disarming, false alarm pro-
tection has engaged. If you wish to clear the memory, turn
the ignition key on.

diagnostics
The microprocessor at the heart of your system is constantly monitor-
ing all of the switches and sensors connected to it. It detects any faulty
switches and sensors and prevents them from disabling the entire sys-
tem. The microprocessor will also record and report any triggers that
occurred during your absence.
arming diagnostics
If the system is armed with an input active (door open, sensor trigger-
ing, etc.) the unit will chirp once when arming and then one more time
a few seconds later. This is called bypass notification.
note: Bypass notification will not occur if chirps have been
programmed OFF.
The system will ignore the input that was active when it was armed until
it goes away. Three seconds later it will monitor that input normally. For
example, if your car has interior light exit delay, and you arm the system
before the interior light goes out, you may get bypass notification. Once
the light goes out, however, the doors are monitored normally.
disarming diagnostics
Extra disarm chirps are the tamper alert. If four chirps are heard when
disarming, the system was triggered in your absence. If five chirps are
heard, a zone was triggered so many times that false alarm prevention
circuitry has bypassed that zone. In either case, the status LED will indi-
cate which zone was involved (see Table of Zones section). The system
will retain this information in its memory, and chirp four or five times

each time it is disarmed, until the next time the ignition key is turned on.

rapid resume logic
This 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 dis-
connected 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.

glossary of terms
Control Module: 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 of the alarm’s functions.
®
Failsafe Starter Kill (if equipped): An automatic switch controlled by
the security system 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 should the
starter kill switch itself fail. Your system is ready for this feature, how-
ever installation of this feature may require additional labor.
Input: Any physical connection to the security system. An input can be
provided through a sensor, pinswitch or by existing systems in the vehi-
cle, such as ignition or courtesy lights.
LED: The LED indicates the status of your system. It is also used to
report triggers and faults in the system or sensors.
®
Valet Switch: A small push-button switch mounted somewhere in
the vehicle. The switch is used to override the alarm when a transmit-
ter is lost or damaged, or to put it into Valet® Mode. This switch is also
used to program optional features.
®
Warn Away Response: Light impacts to the vehicle generate the
Warn Away® Response, which consists of several seconds of horn
honks and flashing parking lights.
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.
