AMX78(3) Owner's Manual 0399

Important Information About Your

AMX78 System

Congratulations on your purchase of the AMX78 vehicle security system

manufactured by Prime Security. To fully benefit from the capabilities of your

AMX78 system, we encourage you to read the Owner’s Manual thoroughly. If

you have any problems or questions regarding your system, consult the dealer

from whom you purchased this product. To locate an authorized Prime dealer,

contact Prime Security directly at 1-800-253-0334 (toll-free within the U.S.) or

1-847-215-2233.

Lifetime Warranty

Prime guarantees the operation of your system control unit and remote

controls for as long as you own your car. (Please refer to your Lifetime Limited

Warranty Card for complete information.) Make sure that you receive your

warranty card from your dealer, complete the required information and mail

the registration portion to Prime Security. You should retain the top portion of

the warranty card for your records.

Remote Controls

Included with your system are two AviGlo™ 4-button/9-channel remote

controls. Once exposed to light, the AviGlo remote control buttons will glow,

making the buttons visible in the dark.

Each of the pair of remote controls is a miniature radio transmitter powered by

a +12 volt battery with a typical range of up to 100 feet. Obstructions,

electrical or radio interference, weather conditions, cellular transmissions,

window tint or a weak remote control battery may reduce the range or

interrupt transmission. (If the system does not immediately respond, release

and press the button again. This works better than holding the button down.)

The second remote can be used by a second driver, or kept as a spare.

Additional remote controls or batteries can be purchased from any authorized

Prime Dealer, or by calling Prime Security toll-free at 1-800-253-0334 (within

the U.S.) or 1-847-215-2233.

Electronic Scan Prevention (ESP)

Your system also includes ESP, which blocks electronic scanner codes

preventing unauthorized operation of your system.

Operating Your System

To Arm The System

The alarm can be programmed for active or passive arming. Active arming

means the alarm can only be armed by the remote control. Passive arming

means if you forget to arm the alarm with the remote control, the alarm will

automatically arm itself 30 seconds after the doors have been closed and the

interior lights have turned off. (See the “Programming Table for System

Features” on page 9.)

Active Arming

Press the remote ARM/DISARM button for 1-2 seconds. The siren will chirp

twice, the parking lights will flash twice, the doors will lock,* the LED will

flash slowly and the starter will be disabled.

*If your system was installed with the door lock/unlock feature,

All other door lock/unlock related features will apply.

Passive Arming

Turn the ignition key “OFF,” exit the vehicle and close the doors. When the

interior lights turn off, the LED will begin flashing rapidly to indicate the alarm

is passive arming. After 30 seconds, the siren will chirp twice, the parking

lights will flash twice, the LED will flash slowly and the starter will be disabled

(at any time during passive arming, the alarm can be actively armed).

To Disarm the System

Press the remote ARM/DISARM button for 1-2 seconds. The siren will chirp

once, the parking lights will flash once, the doors will unlock, the interior

lights will turn on, the LED will turn off and the starter will be enabled.

Remote-Controlled Silent Arm/Disarm

Press the remote SILENT button for 1-2 seconds to arm or disarm your system

without the usual siren chirps.

Silent Arm Indications

The parking lights will flash twice, the doors will lock, the starter will be

disabled and the LED will flash slowly.

Silent Disarm Indications

The parking lights will flash once, the doors will unlock, the starter will be

enabled and the LED will turn off.

AMX78(3) Owner's Manual 0399

User-Programmable Long-Term Silent Arm/Disarm

on page 9.)

Remote Panic with Safety Locks

Zone2



Impact Sensor

The Zone2

Impact Sensor has two individual vibration/impact sensing zones.

Zone #1

If a less threatening vibration or impact is detected, the siren will issue 2

warn-away chirps. A second violation will also issue 2 warn-away chirps. A

third violation will, within 30 seconds, automatically activate the alarm. The

siren will sound and the lights will flash.

Zone #2

If a more threatening vibration or impact is detected at any time, the siren and

lights will activate instantly.

Previous Intrusion Alert

If the vehicle had been tampered with and the alarm had been triggered, the

siren will chirp 3 times upon remote disarm instead of the usual 1 chirp.

Specific Zone Intrusion Identification

If the alarm had been triggered in your absence, the siren will chirp 3 times

upon remote disarm (Previous Intrusion Alert). When you enter the vehicle

and turn the ignition “ON,” the LED will flash in cycles to specifically identify

which zone triggered the alarm.

AMX78(3) Owner's Manual 0399

Alarm State Memory

If your vehicle battery is disconnected and later reconnected, the system will

automatically return to its last state before power was removed, whether it was

armed, disarmed or in Protected Valet Mode. For example, if a mechanic

disconnects the battery while the alarm is disarmed or in Protected Valet

Mode, he won’t trigger the alarm when he reconnects the battery. Yet if a thief

removes power while the alarm is armed and reconnects it, the alarm will

instantly sound, the parking lights will flash and the starter will be disabled.

Automatic Malfunction Override

In the event of a faulty sensor or alarm input trigger zone, the alarm, when

remotely armed, will alert you by a series of chirps and parking light flashes.

How to Interpret the Chirps and Parking Light Flashes

When you press the remote control buttons, the system will respond with

chirps and flashes of the parking lights to indicate the system status. An

explanation of these chirp/flash acknowledgments is listed below.

Number of chirps and flashes Explanation

1 chirp, 1 flash Disarming of the alarm

2 chirps, 2 flashes Arming of the alarm

2 chirps and 2 flashes, then 4 chirps

NOTE: Stop when you reach the number of chirps associated with your

chosen feature.

6.Follow the “Secondary Action.” You will hear a number of chirps to

confirm that you have changed the setting of that feature.
