Code Hopping

The receiver and transmitters each use a mathematical formula

called an algorithm to change their code each time the transmit-

ter is used. This technology has been developed to increase the

security of the unit. The control unit knows what the next codes

should be. This helps to keep the transmitter "in sync" with the

control unit even if you use the remote control out of range of the

vehicle. However, if the transmitter has been pressed many times

out of range of the vehicle, or the battery has been removed, it

may get out of sync with the control unit and fail to operate the

system. To re-sync the remote control simply press

of the

transmitter several times within range of the vehicle. The alarm

will automatically re-sync and respond to the transmitters normally.

High Frequency

Your system transmits and receives at 434 MHz. This provides a

cleaner spectrum with less interference and a more stable signal.

Enjoy a phenomenal increase in range – even in areas with high

radio interference.
