glossary of terms Control Module: The "brain" of your system. Usually hidden underneath 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, however 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 vehicle, 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 transmitter 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. © 2005 directed electronics, inc. 13
