Viper 350 Plus Owner Manual - Page 10

Using your system The buttons used in the instructions in this manual correspond to the standard con­figu­ r­a­tion. Remember, this is not the only way your trans­mit­ter may be set up. It can be custom configured to meet your needs. ➢ Active arming You can activate, or arm, the system by pressing on your transmitter for one second. When the system arms, you will hear a short siren sound, or chirp, and the parking lights will flash once. If the vehicle's power door locks have been connected to the system, the doors will lock. While the system is armed, the status LED will flash approximately once per second, indicating that the system is actively protecting your vehicle. If you hear a second chirp after arming, and see the status LED flashing in groups, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This extra chirp is called Bypass Not­i­fic­ a­tion. ➢ 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. The siren will chirp one time 20 seconds after the last door has been closed. The system is not actually armed at that point. The system arms and the doors lock (if connected and programmed for passive locking) at the 30 second mark, but the siren will not chirp. The early chirp provides you with a 10-second warning prior to arming. 8 © 2008 Directed Electronics- All rights reserved.
