The Automate 7142A is a replacement transmitter designed for use with specific Automate security and convenience systems, including Automate 4104A, 4204A, 4304A, 5104A, 5204A, and 5304A models. This 1-way, 4-button Supercode remote control provides essential functions for vehicle security and remote operation.

Function Description:

The primary function of the 7142A transmitter is to provide remote control over a vehicle's security system and convenience features. It allows users to arm and lock the system, disarm and unlock the system, operate the trunk release, and initiate remote start.

Usage Features:

The transmitter features a straightforward learning process for pairing with compatible Automate systems. This process involves a series of steps:

  1. Preparation: Open the vehicle door and turn the ignition key to the "On" position.
  2. System Entry into Learning Mode: Press and release the system's Control Button once, then press and hold it. The status LED will begin flashing with one flash, and the horn/siren will sound once, indicating the system is ready for pairing. The Control Button can then be released.
  3. Transmitter Learning: Press and hold the desired button on the new remote control. The transmit LED on the remote will turn solid after approximately 10 seconds, and the horn/siren will emit one sound to confirm successful learning.
  4. Multiple Remotes: This process can be repeated for up to four remotes.
  5. Exiting Learning Mode: To exit the learning mode, turn the ignition off or wait 60 seconds. The horn/siren will emit two sounds to confirm the exit.

The remote control's buttons are configured for standard functions:

  • Lock Button: Arms and locks the vehicle's security system.
  • Unlock Button: Disarms and unlocks the vehicle's security system.
  • AUX Button: Operates the trunk release function.
  • Remote Start Button: Initiates the remote start feature.

The system also includes a "Menu Table" for advanced programming options accessible during the learning process:

  • 1 sound/flash: Corresponds to the "Auto learn new remote" function.
  • 2 sounds/flashes: Corresponds to the "Delete remotes" function.

Important Technical Specifications and Compliance:

The 7142A transmitter is designed to comply with FCC Part 15 rules. This means its operation is subject to two conditions:

  1. The device must not cause harmful interference.
  2. The device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Cautions and Warnings:

  • Modifications: Users are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the device.
  • Chemical Exposure (California Proposition 65 Warning): The product may expose users to chemicals, including DEHP, which is known in the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Users are advised to refer to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov for more information.

Maintenance Features:

While the manual does not explicitly detail maintenance features, the "Delete remotes" function (accessed via 2 sounds/flashes in the Menu Table) can be considered a maintenance feature, allowing users to remove old or lost remotes from the system's memory, enhancing security. The need for battery replacement is implied for any remote control, though specific instructions are not provided in this excerpt. Users are advised to refer to the Owner's Guide for more detailed information regarding maintenance and troubleshooting.
