INTRODUCTION  
Thank you for choosing CompuStar, a state-of-the-art Two-Way alarm/remote start  
systems for your vehicle. We, at Firstech, Inc., are constantly researching and  
developing to make you and your vehicle safe and more comfortable. Security and  
comfort, that’s what Firstech, Inc. is all about.  
CompuStar 2000AS system consists of the following two devices:  
Brain: This 5 inch by 3.5 inch by 1 inch rectangular black box is the “brain” of the  
CompuStar 2000AS system by transmitting and receiving functions from the remote-  
pager unit using a unique FM frequency for up to a ¼ mile distance. This allows the  
brain to perform car tasks such as remote keyless entry, auto-start and security  
alerts.  
Remote-Pager: This device allows the user to activate multiple functions of the  
CompuStar 2000AS brain such as auto-start, keyless entry, and security features by  
pressing a combination of 4 buttons on the unit for up to a ¼ mile distance. Also,  
the unique color LCD display called CompuGlo allows the user to visually and  
audibly monitor the security status of your car at all times.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION  
Congratulations on the purchase of your high-tech vehicle security system and

operation. Due to the complexity of this system, it must only be installed by an  
authorized CompuStar dealer for full warranty and technical support. Installation of  
this product by anyone other than an authorized dealer voids the warranty.

System Maintenance  
This system requires no specific maintenance. Your remote-pager unit is powered  
by a single standard AAA battery which will last approximately 3 to 6 month under  
normal use depending on the make and model of your vehicle. There is a battery  
icon in the lower right corner of the CompuGLO LCD indicating remaining battery life.  
When the battery weakens, the operating range will be reduced and the CompGlo  
LCD will dim. Contact your authorized CompuStar dealer if you have additional  
questions.

USING YOUR SYSTEM  
Your CompuStar 2000AS system has many different modes and functions that can  
be activated by using your remote-pager unit.  
Alarm Mode  
You can arm or disarm alarm mode by pressing Button I for a ½ second. When  
armed, a bolted padlock icon will appear on your CompuGLO LCD indicating that  
your car doors are locked. Also, your car will chirp when you arm or disarm your  
car. Press Buttons (I+II) for a ½ second to make your car siren mute when arming  
or disarming your vehicle. A car siren icon will appear on the bottom left-hand  
corner of your CompuGLO LCD indicating that you are in car siren mute mode.  
Keep in mind that your car siren will still activate for all other modes (i.e. panic,  
shock sensor, etc) regardless of whether or not your car siren is in mute mode.  
When alarm mode is armed, the remote-pager security alerts will be triggered  
by the following:  
Unauthorized car door opening will activate the car siren for 30 to 60 seconds  
and the parking lights will flash for 60 seconds. The remote-pager will be  
notified audibly and the door icon will appear in the CompuGLO LCD.  
Unauthorized trunk door opening will activate the car siren for 30 to 60 seconds  
and the parking lights will flash for 60 seconds. The remote-pager will beep  
and the trunk door icon will appear in the CompuGLO LCD.  
Optional starter kill function: This feature disengages the starter mechanism on your car, which  
prevents you from starting your car even with a manual key when your vehicle’s alarm mode is  
activated. The optional starter kill function can be installed by your local authorized CompuStar  
dealer for an additional charge.  
Note: (Siren duration is 30 sec to 60 sec. Please refer to programming section for more detail.)  
Panic Mode  
Panic Mode allows the owner to draw attention to the car in case of an emergency  
or in order to easily locate your vehicle in a large parking lot. Press Button I for 2  
seconds on the remote-pager to enter Panic Mode. In this mode, the car will arm if  
not armed already and the siren will activate and the parking lights will flash. In  
order to disengage Panic Mode, press Button I for a ½ second. Then, press Button  
I for a ½ second to unlock/disarm your vehicle.

Auto-Start Function  
Press Button II for 2 seconds to auto-start an automatic transmission engine. You  
will hear one beep from your remote-pager if there is successful communication with  
your vehicle. The engine will start and give you a visual confirmation by an exhaust  
fume icon coming out from the tailpipe on the remote-pager CompuGlo LCD. A  
manual key in the ignition is required to drive the car. In addition, the anti-grind  
circuit prevents you from wearing down the ignition mechanism in your car when  
you start it. For manual transmission vehicles, please use reservation mode.  
The engine will run 15 minutes (25 min for diesel) to 25 minutes (40 min for diesel)  
and then shut off. If your remote-pager has a problem starting the vehicle,  
CompuStar will try 2 additional times. If the engine does not start after the 3rd  
attempt, please call your authorized CompuStar dealer.  
Note: In order to change the duration of engine running time once auto-start is  
engaged, please contact your local authorized CompuStar dealer.  
Diagnosis problems with Auto-Start  
If there is a problem in auto-starting your car, you will hear three chirps when you  
attempt to auto-start the car. Wait for 2 seconds and the cause for the error will be  
indicated by the number of times the car chirps and parking lights flash.

Query Function.  
Reservation Mode (manual transmission only)  
In order to auto-start your manual transmission car, you must first set the  
CompuStar system to Reservation Mode before leaving your vehicle. The purpose  
of Reservation Mode is to leave the transmission gear in the neutral position when  
you leave your vehicle. Reservation mode is intended for use in MANUAL  
TRANSMISSIONS ONLY and NOT FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS.  
Reservation Mode must be engaged each and every time you leave your manual  
transmission car in order to auto-start the vehicle.  
Note: The system is not recommended for vehicles with removable tops.

Do not auto-start the car with people in the vehicle.  
Activating Reservation Mode (MANUAL TRANSMISSION ONLY)  
Step 1: After arriving at your destination, and BEFORE TURNING YOUR ENGINE  
OFF, place the transmission in the Neutral position.  
Step 2: Remove your foot from the foot brake.  
Step 3: Activate the parking brake.  
Step 4. Remove the key from the ignition. The engine will remain running.  
Step 5. Exit the vehicle and close the door within two minutes from activating the  
parking break. The engine will shut off and reservation mode for the remote  
starter is now complete.

vehicle with the manual key and repeat the above 5 steps if you want to restore  
reservation mode.  
Note: If you try to auto-start the vehicle when reservation mode has not been set  
or turned on, the auto-start feature will not work. The car parking lights will flash  
three times and the door icon in the CompuGlo LCD will be flashing to inform you  
that reservation mode has not been set.  
Canceling Reservation Mode  
If you do not want to set reservation mode, shut off the engine before you exit the  
vehicle. The engine will shut off for the following reasons:  
(a) You do not activate your parking brake or press the foot brake when you turn  
your manual key to the off position.

mode (pressing Button I for a ½ second) on the CompuStar 2000AS. The VPS  
module is a single sensor on the outside edge of your driver’s side front window  
shield that can be activated by tapping a manual key producing a high-frequency  
vibration. Your remote-pager will detect this high-frequency and will beep. A  
telephone icon will appear on the CompuGLO LCD indicating that someone is

Optional Auxiliary 1 & Auxiliary 2  
The auxiliary system is an optional car feature that can be tailored for your vehicle  
by your local authorized CompuStar dealership. The auxiliary feature allows you to  
customize the buttons on your remote-pager to add more functionality to your car.  
For example, you can customize your car to have remote power control of your  
windows, radio, and sunroof in addition to the rooftop on your convertible car. The  
remote-pager has two outputs (Aux 1 & Aux 2) that can be custom utilized with  
optional features. Please contact your local authorized CompuStar dealer for more  
information.  
Valet Mode  
Valet Mode is intended to deactivate most of the features of your CompuStar  
2000AS system especially the security alerts/monitoring and remote starting. The  
only feature operating in valet mode is the keyless entry function and optional  
auxiliary functions. This mode allows a valet to operate your car with your  
authorization without him or her triggering all the security features or remote-starting  
your vehicle. Also, Valet Mode is very useful when washing your vehicle or having it  
serviced.  
In order to enter Valet mode, press Buttons (I+III) simultaneously for a ½ second or  
insert the key into the ignition and turn the ignition on and off five times within 10  
seconds. The remote-pager CompuGlo LCD will display a ZZZ icon indicating that  
you are in Valet Mode. In order to exit Valet Mode press Buttons (I+III)  
simultaneously for a ½ second.  
Valet Switch  
The Valet Switch is a manual control usually located by your car’s dashboard that  
allows the user to engage or disengage the auto-start system.  
Turn On the Valet Switch to deactivate the auto-start system alone.  
Turn Off the Valet Switch to activate the auto-starting system alone.

and heavy impact to your vehicle by sensing low and high frequencies sounds  
produced by differing impacts. Press Buttons (I+IV) for a ½ second to activate or  
deactivate the dual stage shock sensor. A red-bordered indicator box labeled  
Shock will darken in the top left-hand corner of your CompuGlo LCD showing that  
your dual stage shock sensor is activated.  
The dual stage shock sensor will activate 30 seconds after the CompuStar alarm  
mode is armed. When the dual shock sensor is engaged, the remote-pager  
security alerts will be triggered by the following:  
Light impact to your vehicle will activate the first stage shock sensor and the  
car siren will chirp 4 times in addition to the parking lights flashing 4 times. The  
remote pager unit will beep and a vibration icon will appear in the CompuGlo  
LCD.  
Heavy impact to your vehicle will activate the second stage shock sensor and  
the car siren to chirp for 30 to 60 seconds and the parking lights will flash for 60  
seconds. The remote-pager will be notified audibly and a hammer icon will  
appear in the CompuGlo LCD.  
Timer Start Mode  
In Timer Start Mode, your car automatically starts every 1.5 hours for 15 to 25  
minutes depending on preset options during the time of installation. This mode is  
deleted automatically once you start your car with either a manual key or with your  
remote-pager. In order to enter Timer Start Mode, press Buttons (II+IV)
