remote start a carb car

ok I totally understand the concept of what is suppose to happen with choke and kickdown, but my question for which wire to use off the alarm is still unclear to me so that is the info I need

The CM7000AS has 8 POC type outputs.  As a default, all of the POC outputs are assigned a function as follows :

CN5/1     POC #1   Blue/White        GWACN5/3     POC #2   White     HornCN5/5     POC #3   Blue/Green        LockCN5/7     POC #4   Blue       UnlockCN5/9     POC #5   ORANGE / White    DisarmCN5/11   POC #6   Orange ArmCN5/13   POC #7   Violet/White       Trunk ReleaseCN5/15   POC #8   Black     Status ( GWR )

You can pick any of the the above listed wires that you are not planning to use and re-assign it to AUX 1.  The default is

control by remote ( 4-03 ) with a .5 second pulse ( 4-01 ).  You could try that or if the solenoid needed a longer pulse,change 4-01 to Option 4 ( program ) and in Special Option Group 1 set Feature 2 ( AUX1 output time ) to 1 or 2 seconds.

The procedure is listed in the Install guide :

Setting Auxiliary Outputs on Connector 2

You Must Have the OP500 Option Programmer.

Setting auxiliary outputs on the control module involves the Programmable Output Connector wires (POCs).

Choose two odd pin wires that you are not using on the grey 20 pin connector. For example we will use

POC 7 and 8.

STEP 1: Plug in OP500 and use the Right or Left Arrow Button to scroll through the menu to POC 7 and

POC 8 on LCD Line 1.

STEP 2: Use the Up or Down Arrow Button to change the lower number on LCD Line 2 to 10 – Auxiliary

1 or 11- Auxiliary 2.

STEP 3: Scroll up the menu to Option 4-01 and 4-02 and set the options. Please see the Option Table

for details.

STEP 4: Our control modules have a secure auxiliary option 4-05. This requires you to tap the Start

Button before you tap the Trunk Button for Aux 1 or Hold Trunk + Start for 2.5 an then tap

Trunk for Aux 2. On 1-Way remotes you must hold the Trunk and Start Buttons for 2.5 seconds

then tap the Trunk Button for Aux 1 or the Start Button for Aux 2.

STEP 5: If you need to change the time settings of the outputs, scroll down to AU1 or AU2 on the

OP500. LCD Line 2 is the timed output. Note: with an OP500 update (techfeed.

compustar.com) you will now be able to allow for timed AUX outputs of up to

15 minutes.

STEP 6: Hold the “W” Write button for 3 seconds to set all the options.

Please note that Step 4 above describes how to cause an AUX 1 output with a remote.  This will also be described

in the Remote Kits' Users Guide for the particular remotes selected.

Soldering is fun!

wow thank you for the detailed information I really appreciate that

Set up an AUX output for 1 or 2 seconds controlled by the remote.  You would trigger the AUX output prior to a remote start.  The 1 or 2 seconds output would extend the solenoid for that time period setting the choke and priming the engine and then it would retract to its rest position. With the choke set, you could then remote start the engine.

I will be doing work on a carb vehicle soon -- 87' Chevy Monte Carlo -- and spoke to an Audiovvox Tech. rep who said I can use voltage sense -- using an APS-997E -- on these older vehicles instead of Tach at the (-) coil. What is your take on this guys? Was thinking of using a trunk solenoid with an aux output just as described earlier.
