hi guys just wondering if any of you have an idea of a relay or a setup that will do what i want
i want to have a circuit turned on with a disarm pulse and off with a lock pulse for a door popper kit any ideas? it needs to have 2 inputs as if its just one you could turn the circuit off if you unlocked it 2 times....
thanks for any advice

are you trying to make it so the poppers are only active when you disarm the alarm? what is wrong with just using the alarm itself to control your poppers? you can use an alarm with the 1st and 2nd unlock to control the dissarm and driver door popper. then i would use a PAC TR-7 activated by pressing the 1st unlock wire 3 times to pop the passenger door. or you could just use and aux channel to pop the passenger door, thats your call.
this way only the alarm unlock button and ofcourse your back up switch to manually pop the door will be able to open the door. and you wont have to worry about you or someone else leaving the circuit live accidentally.

im having a button in the bodywork to pop the door was thinking of using the key-fob but i prefer the idea of the button, i have setup the old door handle lights to glow for 10 secs after unlocking and will be moving this into the button as is has a ring in the center, worst case ill use the same curcuit to energize the poppers for that same ammount of time.

Even better, you can use https://www.the12volt.com/relays/relaydiagram62.html
to energize the relay for the popper and use a switch to earth and trigger the relay

I did one once where i used the domelight output to make the poppers work. This way they only worked for 1 minute after disarming, after that not.
