Viper 3100V - A guide

This product is intended for installation by a professional installer only! Attempts to install this product by a person other than a trained professional may result in severe damage to a vehicle’s electrical system and components.

What do the buttons do?

• The lock/unlock button arms/disarms the systems in the vehicle.
• The AUX button activates an alternative action such as opening the boot. Up to preference.
• The star symbol activates panic mode.
• Press the AUX button and then press the lock/unlock button to arm or disarm system without a chirp.
• Pressing the lock button and AUX at the same time activates a second alternative action.

The alarm arms, doors lock (if connected), and the siren chirps and parking lights flash once. 

If Valet mode* is On, the doors lock without siren chirps, the alarm is disabled. Exit Valet mode to arm the alarm normally. 

If a trigger zone fault is detected the siren chirps once again and the Status LED generates a Trigger Zone Fault report**. 

When the system is already armed, Press and release . 

The alarm disarms, doors unlock (if connected), and the siren chirps and parking lights flash twice. 

An Alarm Report** alert of 4 or 5 siren chirps will replace the normal disarm chirps if the alarm was triggered.

Panic mode:

If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can trigger Panic output on your security system to attract attention. The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for 30 seconds. Press and release again to stop the output.

Silent arming/disarming:

Press and release AUX, then press and release the lock/unlock button. The system arms or disarms without chirping the siren. To permanently turn off the arm and disarm chirps, contact your installation dealer

Armed protection:

When the vehicle is armed, the Status LED flashes as a visual indicator.

The Failsafe starter kill relay prevents the engine from starting. The failsafe may require different parts and installation.

Onboard shock sensors can distinguish minor and major impacts to the vehicle, and will emit audible warnings to warn offenders away. Full trigger alerts are available if it is sensed that a break in is underway.

A full trigger alert sounds the siren and flashes the parking lights for 30 seconds.

Diagnostics:

When armed by remote command the system runs a status check of the alarm trigger zones (see Table of Zones on next page). Open zones (usually caused by dome light delay or open trunk) are bypassed and reported via the status LED, while all other trigger zones remain active and are monitored to protect the vehicle. Should an open zone self correct (such as dome light turns off), it becomes active and is then monitored normally

If the alarm was triggered while armed, it will be reported when the alarm is disarmed via siren chirps, parking light and status LED flashes. The siren chirps 4 times (or 5 times if NPC On, See Nuisance Prevention (NPC)), the parking lights flash 3 times, and the status LED flashes in groups to indicate the last two zones that were triggered (see Table of Zones on next page). The report output will repeat for each disarm operation until the ignition is turned on.

Nuisance Prevention Circuitry:

NPC monitors all alarm zones and, if any are triggered excessively, bypasses them until corrected. If a point of entry (trunk, hood, door) is left open following a forced entry, it is bypassed. It becomes active again only after being closed. Bypassed sensors automatically reset after one hour, and after the vehicle is driven. Disarming then re-arming the alarm does not reset bypassed sensors.

Passive arming:

Park and exit the vehicle, after the doors are closed the Passive arming countdown begins. The led flashes quickly and after 30 seconds the system arms itself. Anytime before the system arms you can re-enter the vehicle or open the trunk to load or unload items and, after closing passive arming resumes. To stay secure in case of accidental disarming the system, if a door is not opened within 30 seconds the system re-arms itself. This is a programmable option.

Valet mode:

Valet mode can be entered and exited by performing the Remote Valet command or manually using the vehicle key and the valet button. Valet Mode defeats the alarm features while the convenience features (Unlocking doors and opening trunk) still operate normally. To activate/deactivate Valet mode:

1. Turn the ignition on and then off.
2. Immediately press the valet button.

Emergency override:

The following procedure disarms the system when a programmed remote is not available. You must use a factory key if this is the case.

1. Turn the ignition On.
2. Press and release the Valet button once.
3. The siren output ceases and the system is disarmed.

Re-Sync the remote:

If the remote every loses its connection with the vehicle due to a number of factors, all you have to do is press the lock/unlock button many times when in range of the vehicle to re-sync.

Programmable options:

Programming options control your system's normal, operational set-up. Most options do not require additional parts, but some may require additional installation labor. Not all options are available for all cars.

• Ignition switch controlled door-locking which will lock all doors 3 seconds after ignition is turned on.
  
• Comfort closure which will allow you to close all windows and sunroof by holding down the lock button on the remote.

Code Hopping:

If the transmitter has been pressed many times out of range of the vehicle, or if 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 LOCK several times within range of the vehicle. The alarm will automatically re-sync and respond to the transmitters normally.
