viper 5901

ow i see, maybe i'll buy that bitwriter someday.   Its just odd that opening signal is so long by default. For example i hooked up my fuel door to AUX2, and it opens with just a short impulse without any problem. Same type of solenoid unlocks my trunk lock, no need to hold it for 2 seconds. Anyway, i also wanted to say sorry for the Admin that i've created new topic, and thanks for moving it to this thread, i just forgot about that i should continue here. And BTW: regarding the separating GWA wires with diodes issue i've been previously asking. I connected both of my field_disturbance sensors to the same GWA wire (without separating with diodes)   and i don't have any issues. So they have both +12V constant   and GWA feed. One sensor protects front bumper, and the other is inside the cabin. Of course i've separated the trigger outputs as described on last diagram i posted. I've been searching the net and i really cannot find any info, why should i separate the grounds (-12V). Unless i don't understand Howie 11 statement:

howie ll wrote: Diode seperate the GWA wires otherwise feedback.

what kind of feedback?   like one sensor can trigger the other one through their power supply ground wires (?)

GWA not grounds, actually the reason is that the GWA might be controlling a window closer such as a 530t, or an immobiliser relay, coil feed back along the GWA could destroy your 5901, also diode the triggers, grounds do NOT need separating.

thanks for your response. So as i only use GWA (ground when armed) to power up my two field disturbance sensors   i shouldn't have any issues.   But i need to remember about adding diodes if i wanted to hook some extras you've mentioned in the future.     Thanks for clearing this up.
