Passive Arming Mode
- This mode can be switched according to the specified operation.
- All initially set modes (when shipped from factory) are active mode. (No passive mode).
For passive arming mode flowchart, see Fig 1. In arming condition either closed door is opened, entry delay occurs (15 seconds). See Fig 2. During this time, the mode transfers to the disarming condition when the condition described, is met. When the condition is not met, the system judges theft occurrence, the mode transfers to alarming condition.
- Indicator Light Output
Refer to INSPECTING INDICATOR LIGHT OUTPUT (PASSIVE ARMING MODE)Β table. Even in the disarming condition, the indicator light flashes due to the signal output from the immobilizer system. The indicator always flashes receiving the signal from the immobilizer system at any time in the arming condition. The flashing frequency is 0.75 seconds when ON and 1.25 seconds when OFF.INSPECTING INDICATOR LIGHT OUTPUT (PASSIVE ARMING MODE)Condition Indicator Light Disarming Condition OFF Arming Preparation Condition ON Arming Condition (Entry Delay Time) OFF (ON) Alarming Condition ON - Transfer To Active Mode
In each passive mode, when the disarming condition of the active mode switches to arming preparation transfer condition, the active mode transfers to each condition. In this case, active mode continues till disarming condition. See IDENTIFYING TRANSFER TO ACTIVE MODEΒ table.IDENTIFYING TRANSFER TO ACTIVE MODEPassive Mode When Transfer Condition Is Met Active Mode Transfer Condition Disarming Condition Arming Preparation Condition Arming Preparation Condition Arming Preparation Condition Arming Condition (During Entry Delay Time) Arming Condition (After Alarming Time Has Elapsed, Arming Condition) Alarming Condition After Alarming Time Has Elapsed, Arming Condition - Hook up the break-out-box and hand-held tester to the vehicle. See Fig 3.
- Read the ECU input/output values by following the prompts on the tester screen.
