remote functions

This system uses computer-based code learning to learn the remote buttons. This makes it possible to assign any remote button to any system function. The remote initially comes programmed with standard configuration, but may also be customized using the CliffNet Wizard PC program. The buttons in all of the instructions in this manual correspond to a standard configuration remote.

disarming

To disarm the system, press. You will hear a chirp and the parking lights will flash once. If the power locks are connected to the system, the doors will unlock. If the siren chirps three times when disarming, refer to the Diagnostics section of this guide. This is called Tamper Alert. If the siren is active when the system is disarmed you will hear two chirps but the system is not disarmed. (Refer to the Remote Siren Silencing section of this guide.) However, if the alarm completes the full trigger cycle when disarmed you will hear three chirps.
disarming without a remote
This feature allows you to disarm the system without the remote should it be lost, damaged, or disabled. In order to disarm without a remote, you must have the vehicles ignition key, know where the PlainView 2 Valet button is located, and have the PIN code. Be sure to check with the installer for the location of the PlainView 2 Valet button. Please refer to the Disarm/Valet Mode section of this guide for instructions to enter the pin code.

remote siren silencing

This system offers remote siren silencing. Remote siren silencing is a feature that makes it possible to silence and reset the system when it is triggering without disarming the system. If the system is triggered and the siren has been sounding, press on the remote to stop the trigger and return the unit to the armed state. The system will not disarm, but rather reset. This prevents you from disabling the system should you wish to silence it without visually checking the vehicle. After resetting the system, press again to disarm the system.

remote chirp muting

To temporarily turn off the arm or disarm chirps, use remote chirp muting. Simply press on the remote, and the confirmation chirp(s) will be eliminated for that one operation only. The parking lights will flash to confirm the arm/disarm command. If you want the arm/disarm chirps turned off permanently, please refer to the User-Selectable Features section of this guide.

remote sensor disable

To temporarily disable a sensor input, arm the system, press twice and then. The lights will flash four times and all warn away trigger zones one, two, three, and eight are bypassed. Press the buttons again; the lights flash four times and both warn away and full trigger zones one, two, three, and eight are bypassed until the system is disarmed. This can be performed anytime the system is armed. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Arm the system. Press twice and then.

The lights will flash four times; all warn away zones are now bypassed. Transmit the sensor bypass channel again. The lights will flash four more times; the sensor warn away and full trigger zones are now bypassed. The sensor zones will reset when disarmed.
intellistart and smartwindows sensor bypass
When the system sees a command to start the vehicle via the Intellistart, it bypasses sensor zones and will continue to bypass these zones until the remote start shuts down. When the system sees a SmartWindows command for up or down operation, the unit will automatically bypass sensor zones one, two, three, and eight until the windows complete their operation.
note: Intellistart and SmartWindows are optional Clifford accessories. Ask your dealer for more details.

auxiliary channel bypass

Alarm sensor input zones one, two, three, and eight will be bypassed while a pulsed or timed auxiliary Output is active.
panic mode with smart door locking
If you are threatened in or near your vehicle, you can attract attention by triggering the system with your remote! Just press for two seconds to enter Panic Mode. The siren will sound and the parking lights will flash for the programmed duration. If the ignition is on, the doors will lock; if the ignition is off, the doors will unlock. To stop Panic Mode at any time press on the remote again.

disarm/valet mode

Entering your pin code using the PlainView 2 Valet button allows you to disarm the system or enter valet mode without using the remote. In valet mode, the security system will not arm, even with the remote, but all convenience functions (door locks, trunk release, etc.) will continue to work normally. To disarm or enter Valet Mode:
1. Turn the ignition on. 2. Enter PIN code (factory setting is 2).
3. After the last digit of the pin code is entered: a. To disarm the system: press and release b. To enter valet mode: Press and hold three seconds. The LED status indicator will light steadily if you are entering Valet Mode and will turn off if you are exiting Valet Mode. To exit Valet Mode: 1. Turn the ignition on. 2. Enter PIN code. 3. After the last digit press The LED will turn off. for one second. for

remote valet mode

The operations described in this section refer to remote buttons. Remember, the buttons used in all the instructions in this guide correspond to a Standard Configuration remote. This may not be how your remote is set up. To enter Valet Mode, press twice and then. The
LED status indicator will light solid if you are entering Valet Mode, or will turn off if you are exiting Valet Mode.
one-time auto-arming bypass
This will bypass the auto arm feature once only. 1. 2. 3. With the key, turn the ignition on, then off within two seconds. The siren will chirp once to confirm auto arming bypass. The system will not auto arm.
note: The system will revert to normal auto arming when the system sees the ignition on for at least three seconds.

To customize siren sounds, please refer to the selectable siren sounds feature in the User Selectable Features grid. Once in programming mode, press Press on the remote to begin playback of the available sounds. on the PlainView 2 Valet button while playing the desired while playing the desired sound to
sound to add that sound; press delete that sound.

diagnostics

The microprocessor at the heart of your security system is constantly monitoring all of the switches and sensors that are connected to it. It detects any faulty switches and sensors and prevents them from disabling the entire system. The microprocessor will also record and report any triggers that occurred during your absence.

arming diagnostics

If the system is armed while an input is active (door open, sensor triggering, etc.) the unit will chirp twice when arming and then four more times five seconds later. This is called Bypass Notification. The security system will ignore the input that was active when the system was armed, until the input goes away. Three seconds later the system will monitor that input normally. For example, if your vehicle has 16
interior light exit delay, and you arm the system before the interior light goes out, you may hear Bypass Notification chirps. Once the light shuts off, however, the doors are monitored normally.

disarming diagnostics

Extra disarm chirps are the Tamper Alert. If three chirps are heard when disarming, the system was triggered in your absence. If three chirps are heard, the LED status indicator will indicate which zone was involved when you turn the ignition on (see the Table of Zones section). The system will retain this information in its memory. Refer to the Multiple Event Total Recall section of this guide.
arm/disarm diagnostic chart
Action Arm Arm Chirps Light Flashes Description System armed System armed with hood/ trunk active and bypassed (zones 5 and 6) System armed with door active and bypassed (zone 4) System armed with sensor active and bypassed zones 1, 2, 3, and 8 System disarmed System disarmed with tamper alert

Power Saver when the system is armed: After the system has been armed for 48 hours, the LED will flash at half its normal rate, decreasing the system's current draw. Power Saver in Valet Mode: When the system enters Valet Mode the LED illuminates steadily. If the vehicle is not used (ignition is not turned on) for a period of one hour while the system is in Valet Mode, the LED will shut off. If the system remains in Valet Mode, the LED will come back on the next time the ignition is turned on and then back off.

programming options

Programming options control what your system does during normal operation, and require few or no additional parts. However, some may require additional installation labor. Following is a list of the program settings, with the factory settings in bold: Active arming (only with the remote) or passive arming (automatic arming 30-seconds after the last door is closed). Arming/disarming confirmation siren chirps on or off. Auto-Lock on/off/rpm. ON: The doors will lock three seconds after the ignition is turned on unless a door is open. RPM: The doors will lock when the engine speed increases. Auto-Unlock on/off: With this feature on, the doors will unlock when the ignition is turned off. Passive door locking (with passive arming) or active door locking (only when arming with the remote). Passive locking 20
allows the vehicle's doors to lock when the security system passively arms (after the 30 second countdown). This feature only works if passive arming has been programmed. Panic mode enabled/disabled: Some states have laws against siren capability while driving. Full trigger response 30, 60, or 90 seconds: This determines how long the full triggered sequence lasts. Some states have laws regulating how long a security system can sound before it is considered a nuisance. False Alarm Control Technology (FACT II) on or off: Please refer to the FACT II section of this guide for a complete explanation of how FACT II operates. If FACT II is programmed off, the security system will respond to inputs from any sensor indefinitely.
note: Because many states have laws regulating security systems, programming FACT II off may cause your system to violate state laws.
Siren tones and chirp volume: The output of the siren consists of six different tones in sequence and the arm/disarm chirp volume can be changed or eliminated. Reset the system to all factory defaults. Add or remove remote controls. BlackJax feature on or off. Change PIN code. Custom configure the remote control. Remote Valet on or off. Autostart with low battery voltage or cold temperature.
