Zenesis Alarm Setting
Wondering if any Zenesis alarm owners out there can answer this question. I recently got it installed and am loving the alarm.
When I got it installed, since it had the factory defaults, the car would start with the remote control quietly. Since then, I've pressed a few buttons without knowing what they do (due to the learning curve), and every time I start the car with the remote control, my car makes a loud honk for about a second. Does anyone know how to set it so that it doesn't honk? I know it's possible through a setting on the remote, and I've read the manual several times, but I just can't figure out how.
I've been starting my car and people have been staring at it, thinking someone in my car honked at them. But there's no one in the car...kinda weird.

i love this alarm.
P.S. It'd be kind of cool if I had told my installer to hook up AUX2 and AUX3 to other features, like climate control or something else. It's too late for that now... Also the trunk release seems like a waste since tC's trunks have to be manually opened.

1. Insert the key in the ignition.
2. Turn the key to the ACC position (the position between OFF and ON).
3. Cycle between ON and ACC 5 times and leave it in the ON position the fifth time. (ACC-ON-ACC-ON-ACC-ON-ACC-ON-ACC-ON). ***
4. Press button 1 on each remote control once. For each remote control, you'll receive a confirmation chirp, and the parking lights will flash. (Alarm accepts up to 3 remote controls)
5. Turn the key to the OFF position once all remote controls have been confirmed.
***NOTE: You must do steps 1-3 within 3 seconds.

I got mine installed for $200, a decent price considering I didn't buy the alarm from the installer. The installer was extremely nice, even stayed an extra half an hour to finish it and make sure everything was working. It took him about 4 hours. His shop is located on the corner of Roosevelt Ave. and College Point Blvd. in Flushing, NY, shouldn't be that far away from you.

guys I have question on this alarm, they said your valet key isnt required on this system to do remote start.. is that so? how is it able to start the car without the chip we have on the key?
