Is there a way to connect stater to diesel wait to start light or is the only diesel setting the 7/18 second timing?

Depends on the vehicle, isn't there a wait to start wire on the vehicle that can be wired to the POS or NEG WTS wire at the instrument panel?
What vehicle?

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.

That is what I was asking, reading the manual it talks about a WTS wire but looking at the wiring diagram I do not see one

Plug CN3, wire 12 BROWN / white, Option 4-09.
All Euro and Japanese diesels except M/Benz can be left at the 3 seconds default.

Look at the CN3 Pin 12 BROWN / White wire.  Here are the details from the install guide :

Pin 12 BROWN / White - This is a dual-purpose wire that is selectable through Option 4-9 in the programming
able. Select the polarity through the glow/key jumper on the control module. It can be set to accept either a
positive (+) or negative (-) wait to start input / key sense.

Default – Glow plug positive (+) or negative (-) input. The proper vehicle wire will show a (+) or (-) trigger while the wait to
start light is on. This wire will delay the starter output momentarily to allow the glow plugs to warm up on vehicles equipped
with a diesel engine. You can adjust the delay with Option 2-3.

The middle jumper on the brains' PCB inside the removable window must be set for (+) or (-) WTS input.

Makes a change, my posts have to be airmailed!
Actually this is all irrelevant, all the poster has to do is to count how long it takes for the glow plug to extinguish on a cold morning, add 1 second and program that time.

1. I was looking for the wire on the remote starter not the vehicle!
2. I know which wire it is on the 6200, my question was on the cm600. Is there a WTS wire or is it only option a 7/18 second delay.

Thanks

Sorry for the mix-up, I call the "cm600" by the Compustar designation CS600.  Too confusing otherwise.  Even Compustar switches back and forth between the two.

There is no actual Wait To Start trigger wire, just the 1-07 programming selections for the wait time.

Yea, I was getting confused as well. I kept thinking of the CM6000. The CS600 is designed as more of a basic starter setup.... not really for those 'special' cars (diesel, etc).
