Model PRO 9232
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
KEYLESS ENTRY ALARM UPGRADE MODULE
PRE - INSTALLATION NOTES :
This system provides an output that is used to drive the siren, and an output that can pulse the vehicle's horn. When
utilizing the horn, an additional relay maybe required. Caution: on many vehicles the factory horn is not
designed for continuous use, and it is recommended that the siren is used for these vehicles. Check to see
if the horn in the vehicle is the same part that is used in a vehicle with the factory installed security system.
STAND ALONE PASSIVE ALARM
When installing the PRO-9232 as a stand alone passive alarm system, the following programmable features must
be set:
Feature #5 set to Passive.
Feature #7 set to Delay.
Feature #8 set to 1 Wire Disarm.
IMPORTANT : In the entry delay mode, when the alarm is armed actively, the doors will trigger the alarm
instantly. The entry delay will only take place when the alarm is allowed to arm passively!
IMPORTANT : THE ENTRY DELAY WILL NOT OPERATE WHEN THE VOLTAGE SENSING CIRCUIT,
FEATURE # 6, IS ACTIVE
AUXILIARY FUNCTION or REMOTE START OUTPUT
Thissystemincludesanadditionaltransistorizedgroundoutputthatcanbeusedtotriggeranexternalremotestarter
or remote window closure module. This is the Green w/Black trace wire, and it is activated by pressing the Lock,
then Unlock, then Lock buttons on the factory transmitter within a 3 second time period.
REMOTE PANIC
This system will allow the activation of remote panic using the factory transmitter. Pressing the Unlock, the Lock,
then Unlock buttons on the factory transmitter within a 3 second time period will activate the remote panic feature.
TRUNK TRIGGER BY - PASS INPUT
This system provides a positive trunk release input, which allows the activation of the remote trunk release from
the OEM transmitter without triggering the alarm, even when the system is armed.
VALET / MANUAL OVERRIDE SWITCH
This system provides a valet/manual override switch which is operable by use of a custom code override or only
after the system is disarmed. There is no need to conceal this switch as the override code is known only to the
operator.
UNDERSTANDING DISARM #1 AND #2:
Because of the complexities of the different factory installed Remote Keyless Entry Units on the market today, the
PRO-9232usestwodisarminputs. Whetherinstallingintoavehicleusinga2-stepunlockcircuit, singlestepunlock
circuit, or as a stand alone passive alarm, both disarm wires must be connected in all installations.
The arm and disarm functions of this system are learned during power up, by monitoring the resting state of the
factory wires when power is applied to the unit. Be certain all wires are connected to the vehicle before applying
power to the circuit to insure the system responds only during operation from the factory transmitters.
NOTE: By design, if feature #8 is set to the "ON" position, (1 wire disarm), the alarm will not disarm while the
system is in the triggered mode.
It is recommended that when installing this system into vehicles with electronic “ after fans, “ the procedure for hardwire
should be followed.
HARDWIRE:
When hardwiring the door trigger input to switches at all points of entry, the voltage sense circuit must be disabled. By
default, programmable feature # 6 is set to "Hardwire" therefore no change is required. If however you are setting the
unit as a voltage sensing alarm, feature #6 must be changed and voltage sensing must be turned on.
WHITE WIRE : + 12 VDC PULSED PARKING LIGHT OUTPUT ( 15 A MAX )
This wire is provided to flash the vehicle’s parking lights. Connect the WHITE wire to the positive side of one of the
vehicle’s parking lights.
WHITE w/ BLACK TRACE WIRE : POSITIVE OUTPUT TO SIREN
This is a + 12 VDC transistorized switched output when triggered.
Connect this wire to the red, positive wire of the siren. Secure the black, ground wire of the siren to chassis ground.
PURPLE WIRE : (+) DOOR TRIGGER
If the vehicle’s door courtesy light switches have a + 12 VDC output when the door is opened (most Fords), you must
connect this wire to the positive output from one of the door switches. Do not connect this wire at the illuminated entry
output from the keyless entry module. You must connect this wire at the door ajar switch. In most cases, the PURPLE
wire will only need to be connected to one door switch, no matter how many doors the vehicle has.
IMPORTANT! DonotusethePURPLEwireifthevehiclehasgroundoutputtypedoor switches. (seeBROWNwire).
YELLOW WIRE : + 12 VDC IGNITION SOURCE
Connect this wire to a source that is + 12 VDC when the key is in the on and crank positions, and off when the key is in
the off position.
DARK GREEN w/ WHITE TRACE WIRE : ENTRY ILLUMINATION ( 300 mA MAX. )
The DARK GREEN w/ WHITE TRACE wire provides a 30 second ground signal whenever the system is disarmed using
the OEM transmitter, and pulses ground when the alarm is triggered.
It is used to provide the optional entry lighting feature, and will flash the vehicle’s dome light when the alarm is sounding.
This is a transistorized, low current output, and should only be used to drive an external relay coil. Connect the DARK
GREEN w/ WHITE TRACE wire to terminal 86 of an external relay, connect terminal 85 of the relay to a fused + 12 VDC
battery source, and wire the normally open and common relay contacts ( 87 and 30 ) according to the polarity of the
vehicle’s courtesy light circuit.
BLACK w /WHITE TRACE WIRE: LOW CURRENT HORN OUTPUT
The black w/ white trace wire is provided to beep the vehicle’s horn. This is a transistorized low current output, and
should only be connected to the low current ground output from the vehicle’s horn switch.
If the vehicle uses a + 12 VDC horn switch, then connect the black w/ white trace wire to terminal 86 of the AS 9256
relay ( or an equivalent 30 Amp automotive relay ), and connect relay terminal 85 to a fused + 12 VDC battery source.
Connect relay terminal 87 to the vehicle’s horn switch output, and connect relay terminal 30 to a fused + 12 VDC battery
source.
BLACK WIRE : CHASSIS GROUND
Connect this wire to a clean, solid, unpainted, metal part of the vehicle’s chassis.
ORANGE WIRE : GROUND OUTPUT WHEN ARMED
This wire is provided to control the starter cut relay. Connect the ORANGE wire to terminal 86 of the relay, and wire the
remaining relay contacts as shown in the wiring diagram.
WARNING! Audiovox does not recommend using this relay to interrupt the ignition wire. Only connect
this relay to the low current solenoid feed wire, as indicated on the wiring diagram.
BROWN WIRE : (-) DOOR TRIGGER
If the vehicle’s door courtesy light switches have a negative ground output when the door is opened (most GM and
Imports) you must connect this wire to the negative output from one of the door switches. Do not connect this wire at the
illuminated entry output from the keyless entry module. You must connect this wire at the door ajar switch. In most cases,
the BROWN wire will only need to be connected to one door switch, no matter how many doors the vehicle has.
IMPORTANT! DonotusetheBROWNwireifthevehiclehas+12Voltoutputtypedoorswitches(seePURPLEwire).

trigger devices such as motion, glass breakage and/or non plug in shock sensors.
DARK GREEN WIRE : (-) INSTANT TRIGGER ZONE 2
This is an instant activation ground trigger wire. It should be connected to the previously installed hood and trunk pin
switches.
GREEN w/BLACK TRACE WIRE : AUXILIARY OR REMOTE STARTER OUTPUT
This wire provides a low current transistorized ground pulse to control the input trigger wire of a remote starter or window
roll-up module. Connect this wire to the ground activated trigger input wire of the optional device.
2 PIN WHITE CONNECTOR : RED AND GREEN DOOR LOCK OUTPUTS (Auto Lock / Unlock)
The door lock output wires from this unit will provide control for the passive lock feature as well as ignition controlled lock
and unlock feature, and should be used only on vehicles whose Factory Keyless Entry circuits do not incorporate these
features.
These wires will provide either a pulsed ground output to the factory door lock control relay, or a pulsed +12 volt output
to the factory door lock control relay. In either case, the maximum current draw through these outputs must not exceed
300 mA.
3 Wire Ground Switched Door Locks
In this application, the red wire provides a ground pulse during the lock sequence. Connect the red wire to the wire that
provides a low current ground signal from the factory door lock switch to the factory door lock control relay.
The green wire provides a ground pulse during the unlock sequence. Connect the green wire to the wire that provides
a low current ground signal from the factory door unlock switch to the factory door unlock control relay.
3 Wire Positive Switched Door Locks
In this application, the red wire provides a positive pulse during the unlock sequence. Connect the red wire to the wire
that provides a low current positive signal from the factory door unlock switch to the factory door unlock control relay.
The green wire provides a positive pulse during the lock sequence. Connect the green wire to the wire that provides a
low current positive signal from the factory door lock switch to the factory door lock control relay.
4 Wire Polarity Reversal and
5 Wire Alternating 12 Volt
Door Lock Control Circuits
In these applications, the AS 9159 Door Lock Interface (or equivalent 30 A automotive relays) must be used. Refer to
the AUDIOVOX Door Lock Wiring Supplement for proper connection to these types of circuits.
4 PIN WHITE CONNECTOR: RED, GREEN, RED/BLACK,& BLUE FACTORY KEYLESS INPUTS:
NOTE! When installing the PRO-9232 as a stand alone passive security system, the RED wire in this connector
must be connected to a rest at ground , + 12 VDC switched ignition source. RED w/BLACK and GREEN
wires must be connected to ground. The BLUE wire in this connector will not be required for the stand
alone installation.
The Red, Green, and Red/Black wires of the 4 pin connector are polarity learning inputs to be connected to the vehicle
unlock 1, and unlock 2 control wires. When the control circuit is first powered up, these wires will learn the resting state
of the circuits they are connected to. DO NOT operate the vehicle's door lock circuits, (switch or remote), while power
is being applied to the PRO-9232.
WIRING THE ARM / DISARM INPUTS IN VEHICLES WITH REMOTE 2 STEP UNLOCK
The following represents the most common wiring routine in vehicles using the remote 2 step unlock feature. Be certain
to set selectable feature #8 to two wire disarm.
GREEN WIRE : ARM INPUT
Connect this wire to the lock side of the door lock/unlock switch or, the driver's door lock motor leg wire, which will receive
a negative or positive pulse when the doors are locked using the door switch or the remote transmitter.
RED WIRE : DISARM INPUT #1
Connect this wire to the driver's door unlock motor wire, which will receive a negative or positive pulse when the drivers
doorisunlockedwiththeremotetransmitter, andthedoorswitch, butdoesnotreceiveapulsewhenalldoorsareunlocked
using the remote transmitter.
Page 4
RED w/BLACK TRACE WIRE : DISARM INPUT #2
Connect this wire to the unlock side of the door lock/unlock switch or any passenger door unlock motor wire, which will
receive a negative or positive pulse when all doors are unlocked using the door panel switch or the remote transmitter,
but will not receive a pulse when the driver only door is unlocked using the remote transmitter.
BLUE WIRE : TRUNK TRIGGER SHUNT INPUT
This wire will determine if the vehicle’s trunk has been opened using the OEM transmitter, and prevent the alarm from
triggering when the transmitter is used. This wire requires a positive trigger input and must be wired to the switched +
12 volt trunk control wire from the vehicle's keyless entry unit or, the switched + 12 volt side of the vehicle's trunk release
solenoid.
WIRING THE ARM / DISARM INPUTS IN VEHICLES WITH ONE WIRE DISARM
The following represents the most common wiring routine when the vehicle's utilizes single step, (one wire) disarming.
Be certain to set selectable feature #8 to one wire disarm. Because one wire is used to disarm the alarm system, during
this mode of operation, the remote transmitter will not disarm the system during the sounding period. This also prevents
the interior door switch from disarming the unit while sounding.
GREEN WIRE: ARM INPUT
Connect this wire to the lock side of the door lock/unlock switch or the driver's door lock motor wire, which will receive
a negative or positive pulse when the doors are locked using the door panel switch or the remote transmitter.
RED WIRE : DISARM INPUT #1
Connect this wire to unlock side of the door lock/unlock switch or to any door unlock motor leg wire, which will receive
a negative or positive pulse when all doors are unlocked using the door panel switch and the remote transmitter.
RED w/BLACK TRACE WIRE : DISARM INPUT #2
Connect this wire to chassis ground.
BLUE WIRE : (+) TRUNK TRIGGER SHUNT INPUT
This wire will determine if the vehicle’s trunk has been opened using the OEM transmitter, and stop the alarm from
triggering when the transmitter is used.
Connect this wire to the + 12 volt trunk release output from the OEM Keyless Entry module.
WIRING THE ARM / DISARM INPUTS IN VEHICLES WHEN THE SYSTEM IS SET UP AS A
STAND ALONE PASSIVE (IGNITION CONTROL) ALARM SYSTEM
For this mode of operation, be certain to set selectable features #5 for passive, #7 for delay, and #8 for 1 wire disarm.
GREEN WIRE: ARM INPUT
Connect this wire to chassis ground.
RED WIRE : DISARM INPUT #1
Connect this wire to an ignition source that has +12 volts when the ignition switch is turned to the on and start positions
and has 0 volts when the switch is in any other position.
RED w/BLACK TRACE WIRE : DISARM INPUT #2
Connect this wire to chassis ground.
BLUE: TRUNK SHUNT INPUT
This wire is not used for the stand alone passive alarm application.
VALET SWITCH : Plug the 2 pin connector from the valet switch into the mating 2 pin connector on the control module.
L.E.D. : Plug the 2 pin connector from the L.E.D. into the mating 2 pin connector on the control module.
COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION
After all wire connections have been made, plug the main 14 pin connector into the control module. During the first few
seconds of power up, the circuit's processor learns the resting state of the Red, Red/Black, and Green wires of the 4 pin
connector. It is important that the ignition switch be off, and the door lock/unlock switch or transmitter not be used during
the power up sequence. Once this sequence is complete, you can disarm the system with the customers transmitter and
move onto programming the selectable features.
