Thank you for trusting Prestige products! If you are a consumer, please note:
Professional installation is strongly recommended.
This manual assumes the installer has adequate knowledge of the following expertise. Therefore, it does not
cover these topics in detail:
•
12-volt electronics
•
Testing and verifying circuits
•
Making safe and lasting wiring connections
•
Factory ignition, power, lighting, data bus and sensing systems
•
Factory systems and components to avoid
•
Safe wire routing, circuit protection and product placement
•
Access to vehicle-specific technical information
In addition, this manual assumes the installer has the proper tools, skill and facilities to perform a professional installation.
Performing an improper installation could result in damage to the vehicle or its components, improper system function,
unsafe vehicle operation or physical injury. Such instances would not be covered by the vehicle manufacturer's warranty,
nor by Voxx Electronics, Inc.

6. BLACK – Ground Input (-)
The BLACK wire connects to a reliable vehicle ground (-) source to power the system.
Verification: The vehicle ground (-) source wire registers ground (-) at all times.
Note: Before making this connection, remove all module fuses until the system is completely connected.
4. WHITE/BLACK – Siren Output (+)
The WHITE/BLACK wire supplies 12-Volt (+) to power the siren. After mounting the siren, connect its BLACK wire to a
reliable ground source, and connect the BROWN wire to the siren’s RED wire.
Main Input / Output Connector (11-pin connector) See page 15 for the full system diagram.
These wires are listed in order of their placement in the harness connector.
1. WHITE – Parking Light Relay Output (Internal Relay Pin 30)
At its default setting, the WHITE wire supplies 12-Volt (+) or Ground (-) to the vehicle's park light wire based on the
connection of the relay input (WHITE/RED wire).
Verification: The vehicle parking light wire registers 12-Volt (+) or Ground (-) when the park lights are turned on.
Note: This wire can be programmed to perform the Trunk Release Output function by changing its options. Refer to
Bank 2, Feature 6 on page 8.
2. WHITE/RED – Parking Light Relay Input (Internal Relay Pin 87)
The WHITE/RED connects to vehicle 12-Volt (+) or Ground (-) to supply the relay output (WHITE wire).
Verification for default setting:
•
If the vehicle parking light wire registers 12-Volt (+) when the park lights are on, connect the WHITE/RED wire to a
constant 12-Volt (+) vehicle wire.
•
If the vehicle parking light wire registers Ground (-) when the park lights are on, connect the WHITE/RED wire to a
reliable vehicle ground source.
Note: This wire can be programmed to perform the Trunk Release Output function by changing its options. Refer to
Bank 2, Feature 6 on page 8.
21. DARK BLUE – Trunk Release Output (-)
At its default setting, the DARK BLUE wire connects to the vehicle trunk release wire or relay and supplies Ground (-)
when activated from the remote control.

Note: If the door trigger registers as Ground (-) when a door is opened, use the BROWN, Pin 8, input.
11. ORANGE – Starter Kill Output N.C. (-)
The ORANGE wire supplies Ground (-) when the alarm is armed.
8. LIGHT GREEN – Instant Trigger Input(-)
The LIGHT GREEN wire connects a device or switch that, when triggered, supplies a Ground (-) output. If the system is
armed, this input will trigger the alarm.
9. BROWN – Door Trigger Input (-)
The BROWN wire connects to the vehicle's door trigger wire. This wire will detect Ground (-) input.
Verification: The vehicle door trigger wire registers Ground (-) when a door is opened and opposite when closed.
Note: If the door registers as 12-Volt (+) when the door is opened, use the PURPLE (Pin 3) input.
7. YELLOW – Ignition Input (+)
The YELLOW wire connects to the vehicle's primary ignition wire. This wire will be used for system programming and
override.
Verification: This ignition wire registers 12-Volt (+) when the key is in the accessory, ignition, and start positions.
Note: Before making this connection, remove all module fuses until the system is completely connected.
Main Input / Output Connector (11-pin connector) See page 15 for the full system diagram.
These wires are listed in order of their placement in the harness connector.
Door Lock Connector (2-pin connector) See page 15 for the full system diagram.

Once the system is installed and powered up, you will use the vehicle ignition, override button and a programmed
remote control to set all system options. Feature options are divided into categories, or Banks, as described throughout
this section. Ensure that at least one remote control is programmed to the system. If not, or if you need to program
more remote controls, use the diagram steps to access Bank 1.
The siren and LED will indicate your status and selections. Follow the diagram below to enter and maneuver through the
programming procedure.
Quick Reference: System Programming
Programming Mode Entry and Exit Procedure
1. Turn the ignition ON.
2. Press and release the valet/override button 3x.
3. The system will beep (1) one time, indicating you have accessed Bank 1.
4. Each cycle of the Ignition, OFF/ON, will advance to the next bank (up to Bank 3) then restart at Bank 2. (Note: To re-
access Bank 1 for transmitter programming, you will need to exit and re-enter programming mode.)
5. The system will beep a number of times to indicate the Bank number:
•
1 beeps: Bank 1 - Programming Remote Controls
•
2 beeps: Bank 2 - Security Control Options
6. Once you have accessed the desired bank, press the valet/override button to advance though the features. The LED

The system will respond with one (1) beep for ON or two (2) beeps for OFF.
Adjusting the Shock Sensor
1. Arm the system, wait 5-10 seconds, then with an open palm carefully apply impact to areas of the vehicle to test the
shock sensor’s sensitivity.
2. To adjust, turn the adjustment knob on the shock sensor counter-clockwise for less sensitivity; clockwise for more
sensitivity.
3. If the proper sensitivity still cannot be achieved, re-locate the shock sensor.
Troubleshooting Trigger Zones
Test the doors, hood, trunk, and shock sensor to ensure they trigger the security system. Once triggered, the LED flashes
to indicate the trigger source:
