In order to retain the Silent Mode feature in a DEI system that is being used with the 516L, the H1/5 BROWN
wire must be connected to the siren wire of the DEI system and Dipswitch #3, which controls the Siren
Monitoring feature, must be turned on. (See Feature Descriptions in the System Feature Programming section of
this guide.) The 516L monitors the siren output pulses to determine when to generate voice messages for the
arm and disarm commands. If siren pulses are not detected during the arming or disarming process, the 516L
will not send voice messages for these commands.
public address (p.a.) system
The public address function of the 516L can be used to talk to people outside of your vehicle. To use the public
address system, press and HOLD the program/record button. Wait for the LED light to illuminate steadily to enter
P.A. Mode. While in P.A. Mode, all sounds detected by the microphone will be amplified by the 516L and repro-
duced by the speaker.
NOTE: Before using the 516L in P.A. Mode, check local regulations regarding exterior speakers in
moving vehicles.
volume adjustment
The 516L has a volume adjustment knob on the side of the control module for controlling the speaker volume.
Simply turn the knob counter-clockwise to decrease the volume or clockwise to increase the volume.
special enhancement feature
In order to eliminate the chirp confirmation feature from a DEI security system but still retain the 516L
arm/disarm voice message confirmation, the component controlling siren chirps must be removed from the siren
module. (See the siren instructions of the DEI security system for details.)
If Silent Mode is desired, the chirp confirmation feature of the DEI security system cannot be programmed to
the OFF setting when interfacing with the 516L. When the 516L’s Siren Monitoring feature is in the ON setting,
the unit relies on pulses from the security system’s siren output to indicate arm/disarm confirmation. If the secu-
rity system’s chirp confirmation feature is programmed OFF, the 516L cannot detect the siren chirps, and
therefore the arming and disarming commands will be ignored.
