Firstech, LLC CM1000A manual RPS Remote Paging Sensor, Temperature Sensor, Programming the Outputs

Please note that the Auxiliary outputs are low-level outputs, and should not be used to directly power any devices/accessories in the vehicle. This will damage the output and void the warranty on this item

Pin8: This wire is a 12v+ constant output, provided for convenience during installation. The seven auxiliary outputs will, in most cases, be used to trigger a relay that will activate/power the vehicle accessory you are trying to control. Being negative outputs, you would require a positive 12v trigger on the other side of the relay coil. You can use this wire as that 12v+ source.

Programming the Outputs

Programming of the Channel Expander outputs must be done with the Option Programmer. To program the Channel Expander outputs, connect the Option Programmer and move to option 2-9. Once this option is set to the optional setting, the auxiliary outputs will be adjustable at the end of menu 2. Use the up and down buttons to adjust the timing of the outputs. “LA” means it is set up as a latched output that will stay latched until the auxiliary is triggered again. For the timed latch settings, you can set the output duration for 1-99 seconds. Don’t forget to “write” the settings to the control module when you are finished.

RPS – Remote Paging Sensor

The RPS is a dual function sensor that can be used as a theft deterrent and a paging unit for the remote. We recommend that the RPS is mounted on the left hand side of the windshield in plain view. While the system is armed the blue LED will flash through the windshield. At the customer’s request a dash mounted LED can be installed but this eliminates the need for drilling unnecessary holes in the interior dash. If the RPS is tapped while the system is armed the LED will come on solid to indicate that the remote is being paged. At that time the remote will ring and the phone icon will appear to notify the owner of the vehicle that someone is waiting at the vehicle. **THIS IS NOT A GLASS BREAKAGE SENSOR. ** (The RPS is only available and included with, 2-way alarm and alarm/remote start systems).

Temperature Sensor

The temp sensor monitors the internal temperature of the vehicle. We recommend mounting this sensor inside the vehicle accessible to the owner for adjustment. This sensor plugs directly into Compustar control modules that offer remote start features. With this option the remote start checks the internal temperature of the vehicle every three hours. The vehicle will only remote start if the temperature is below the pre-set
