I am installing a compustar cm900as on a 2000 mr2 spyder. Since this is a mid engine car I want to wire in 2 accessories to use the remote to pop the trunk and the 'frunk' independently. I will be using two dei 522t actuators to do this. The cm900 has an output for a trunk release which will also disarm the alarm when you pop the trunk. To pop the hood I want to find a way to have another accessory output that will disarm and send the signal. The master guide does not mention if any of the aux channels will also disarm or have the option to disarm on activation. How can I achieve this?

There may be a better way to do it, but you can split the aux output and diode isolate so one end goes to the relay for the actuator and one goes to the Compustar disarm wire at the sensor port. This would require losing your shock sensor and require programming to arm/disarm in 4-12. You need either option 3 or 4 selected.
You may want to consider a beefier solenoid for the frunk to ensure it's strong enough.
If this seems like a lot of silly extra work just to lose a sensor port, you can just hook it up and remember to disarm first.
