Question

Tech Support phone mailbox full?

Exactly how does the EVO-ALL going to work with a manual transmission ('14Mazda 3).  Does the EVO-ALL's doorlocks and e-brake signal drop out when ign is off?  Do I have to wire these functions directly for the Ultrastarter's (1281M) to monitor door pins and e-brake?  How is the reservation mode going to be setup?  Typically e-brake, push the start button on the R/S remote, and open and close the door.  Will the car be able to shut down and how will it be able to shut down?  Does the PTS button get a - signal from the EVO-ALL for shut down?

I haven't done a R/S in a PTS car with the bypass controlling the ign yet.

Answer 1

Does the EVO-ALL's doorlocks and e-brake signal drop out when ign is off?

When the vehicle is not running door locks should work but we cannot control the factory alarm. Therefore you need to use the factory remote to actually get in the car without sounding the vehicles alarm. There is no way around this yet as Mazdas 6th generation alarm is uncontrollable.

 

Do I have to wire these functions directly for the Ultrastarter's (1281M) to monitor door pins and e-brake?

Up to you. The evo has outputs for it so conenctions directly from vehicle to remote starter are not required. With the ultrastart you can simply use datalink connections and only do the solid lines in the install guide.

 

How is the reservation mode going to be setup?  Typically e-brake, push the start button on the R/S remote, and open and close the door.  Will the car be able to shut down and how will it be able to shut down?  Does the PTS button get a - signal from the EVO-ALL for shut down?

Works the same way. The EVO will shut down the vehicle once the remote starter drops out.

I'm starting to wonder the same thing.   My EVO-ALL won't program properly and the Flash-Link server isn't loading properly.  I'm mad as hell.
