FO1 - 77° F/25° C:
will activate the start sequence at the end of the time cycle (set by feature 2-06
option setting) if temperature is at or above this temperature.
FO2 - 86° F/30° C:
will activate the start sequence at the end of the time cycle (set by feature 2-06
option setting) if temperature is at or above this temperature.
FO3 - 95° F/35° C:
will activate the start sequence at the end of the time cycle (set by feature 2-06
option setting) if temperature is at or above this temperature.
FO4 - 104° F/40° C: will activate the start sequence at the end of the time cycle (set by feature 206
option setting) if temperature is at or above this temperature.
2-10 Engine Sensing:
This feature provides 4 options for engine sensing methods. Every CM-900 is
shipped in manual transmission mode. Tach sensing is our default engine sense option.
FO1 - Tach:
This option uses a hard wired input (yellow/black CN3 gray connector) to read the
vehicles RPM’s in order to release the starter during the remote start process and determine that
the engine is running.
FO2 - Alternator:
This option uses the hardwired tach input (yellow/black CN3 gray connector) to
read the voltage output from the vehicles stator wire in order to release the starter during the
remote start process and determine that the engine is running. Note: with late model computer
controlled alternators, the peak charging voltage mat not be reached for several seconds after the
vehicle is running. This may make this option inconsistent when the battery is low or very cold.
FO3 - No connection Tachless sensing:
(aka “voltage sensing”) Note: can only be used with
automatic transmission. This option uses the voltage readings on the power input at the main CN1
connector to monitor the voltage before, during, and after crank, to determine when to release the
starter and consider the vehicle running. Note: with late model computer controlled alternators, the
peak charging voltage mat not be reached for several seconds after the vehicle is running. This
may make this option inconsistent when the battery is low or very cold.
FO4 - No connection Assumed running: (aka engine sense off) Note: can only be used with
automatic transmission. This option provides a 3 second starter output, leave the rest of the CM-
900 ignition and accessory outputs on and consider the vehicle running. Note: This is a good
option for (PTS) Push To Start applications and Hybrid vehicles (except manual transmission).
2-11 Advanced Tachless:
This feature when used in conjunction with feature 2-10 option 3 will provide
an enhanced Tachless engine sensing mode.
FO1 - Off:
(default)
FO2 - On:
this option will enable the advanced algorithm to monitor battery voltage before, during,
and after crank to allow the CM-900 to release the starter and consider the vehicle running. This
option is better suited for late model computer controlled vehicles or older vehicles with poor
battery conditions.
Note:
feature 2-10 must be set to option 3 in order for it to work properly. If
there is tach signal input to the CM-900 either analog or data interface module, this option will not
operate consistently.
2-12 Crank Time:
This feature allows the user to add or remove crank time to the selected option for
feature 2-10 (engine sense).
FO1 - Standard:
(default crank time no change).
FO2 - +200mS:
To standard crank time of option selected on feature 2-10.
FO3 - +600mS:
Adds 600 milliseconds to standard crank time of option selected on feature 2-10.
FO4 - (-)200mS:
releases the starter output 200 Milliseconds earlier than standard crank time of
option selected on feature 2-10.
