compustar ss remotes sleep or something?

Wow, big talker.

Anyways Spread Spectrum has a slight delay on the remote because it uses 900 MHz and 50 different channels. Unlike DEI they use 25 channels. With normal code hopping you’re only using one channel so it's consistent when in range and no interference. So a good example of SS is like a cordless phone. When you get interference you hit the channel button to switch to another channel and it becomes clear. That’s Spread Spectrum.

Here is a tip. When you have trouble communicating to your vehicle just take out the battery and put it back in. This resynchronizes the remote to the antenna. If you keep on having issues take it back to the shop you purchased it from and get a warranty.

I know that CompuSTAR is on there 2nd generation SS. They were the first the implement this technology into Remote starters and alarms. So I would be careful swerk on who you’re talking trash about. And if I heard right CompuSTAR is pretty big in Canada? Why do you hate on them so much?

I need to chime in on this one. First off, I have Astrostart in my blood. I feel bar none, it's the best remote start in the world. I have only had 1 "go bad" in 7 years. And it was in MY CAR....go figure. All be it, I don't do 2000 a year.

Compustar is far from junk. If range, features etc. are what you need, there is none better. The new PRO is cool stuff. I myself do not need to start my Civic from 63.2 miles away....but some love it.

As dswift said the SS has had a rough start, and needs to be explained to the customer. MOST of the problems with ANY of the compustars are the result of poor education to the customer, from the installer, or salesman. This isn't your typical turn and burn product. The SS, one needs to have the ability to be cool with the buttons.....you start pushin and pushin, your sure to screw something up.

Compustar IS the leader in 2 way... period.

Thats all....

I agree with DSwift, the P2WSSR is not for everyone ;)

Note:

The remote will auto sync if it fails to communicate after sending 8 comands or more, During the time the P2WSSR is auto synching it is frequency hoping in search of the antenna. Autosync will display on your remote for 5 to 8 seconds. Like DSwift said, if that doesnt work, take the battery out and put it back in to re-sync manually.
