Audiovox APS-786 Custom Code Programming Example, Eliminating the Normal ARM/DISARM Chirps

Page 6

Custom Code Programming Example:

To Change the code from the factory pre-assigned code of 11 to “52” you would do the following:

1.Disarm the system by use of the transmitter, or by use of the emergency override sequence.

2.Turn the ignition switch to the on position.

3.Within 10 seconds, press and release the valet/override switch, 3 times.

4.Within 10 seconds turn the ignition switch off, on, off, on, off, on. (The siren or horn will beep and the lights will flash one time.)

5.Within 10 seconds, begin to press and release the push button switch to set the tenths digit. (As per the example, press and release 5 times to set the tenths digit to 5)

6.Within 10 seconds of the last press of the push-button, turn the ignition switch off then on.

7.Within 10 seconds, begin to press and release the push button switch to set the units digit. (As per the example, press and release 2 times to set the units digit to 2).

8.Turn the ignition switch to the off position. Immediately observe the LED flash pattern. You will note the LED flashing five times, pause, and then flash two times, pause. This pattern will be repeated three times indicating the new code (52) has been accepted and stored in memory.

NOTE: If after step 7, the LED flashes a code other than what was just entered, this indicates that the code has not been changed. You will have to repeat steps 1 through 7 above being certain to note the following:

Acceptable digits 10ths or units are 1 through 9. The unit will not recognize a 0 (Zero), or no digit entered in any place, units or tenths.

NOTE: If 15 seconds of inactivity expire, or if the ignition switch is turned off for more then 5 seconds during any of the above steps, the unit will revert back to the last successfully stored code.

MANUALLY OVERRIDING YOUR SYSTEM: USING THE CUSTOM CODE OVERRIDE

Assuming the override code programmed has not been changed, and the default override code of 11 is in the system's memory.

1)Enter the vehicle and turn the ignition switch to the on position.

NOTE: The siren will sound.

2)Within 5 seconds, press and release the pushbutton switch 1 time.

3)Within 5 seconds, turn the ignition switch off then on.

4)Within 5 seconds, press and release the pushbutton switch 1 time.

5)Turn the ignition switch off then on and start the vehicle.

NOTE: If you have changed the programmed override code then substitute your new code tenths for step 2 above, and units for step 5 above.

ELIMINATING THE NORMAL ARM/DISARM CHIRPS

You can selectively eliminate the normal arm & disarm chirps by holding the transmitter button slightly longer when arming or disarming. This will prevent the siren chirps for one arm or disarm cycle. If you find this inconvenient and wish to eliminate these chirps permanently,

1.Start with the valet switch in the 'off" position.

2.Turn the ignition switch 'on" then 'off".

3.Within 10 seconds of turning off the ignition, move the valet switch 'on", "off', "on", "off", "on", "off".

4.If the chirps were on before you started, the siren will emit 2 short chirps indicating that the chirps are now off. If the chirps were off before you started, the siren will emit one short chirp indicating that the chirps are now on.
