  • This is a brief look at the Compustar RF-2W901-SS 2-way lcd remote and 1-way companion remote starter and alarm. The 2-way LCD remote is finally rechargeable!
    It is pared with a Compustar FT6000AS Brain.
    ***If you would like to know anything else, I would be glad to help.***
    ** In the video I said that the 1-way remote has about 1000 feet of range, that is not true, it actually has the full 1 Mile range as well. **

    I'm having issues turning my shock sensor back on even trying these steps so back to the installer I go. The battery life on both remotes is fantastic. The rechargeable lasts me about a month n a half. I drive aprox 200 miles a day with many, many stops so it's getting used for sure.

    Which battery does the 4 button remote take??

  • @kennmaxx4202
    @kennmaxx4202  Před 11 lety

    This is a remote start and alarm combo. You need to have the right "brain" to have both capabilities. I have the FT6000AS (AS = alarm + start), also they have a FT6200S (S= start). Finally there is also the FT6300A (A = alarm). So you should ask your installer what brain he used, the remote does not determine if it can start your vehicle or not. Hope this helped.

    Hi, do you know if there's a way to turn the remote OFF? To turn ON is "F" for 3 seconds. Also, my clock will not display on the remote? I have the newer DC-3 brain. Is the clock dictated by the brain model? Lastly, is the specific timed start also dictated by the brain? The DC-3 brain seems to only allow timed start every 2, 3, 4 hours, or using the brain's temp sensor. But it looks like no option for a specific start time? Thank you!

      Yep. The RPS icon is a phone handset icon that shows up in front of the car. The Vibration icon looks more like a beeper w/wavy lines and shows up in the top row with the other icons.
      You turn RPS on/off like you do the other functions: Press the car and key buttons for 2.5 secs. Press the Function key until you see "RPS On" (or Off); then press the Lock button to change what you see. Press the car and key buttons again to exit the programming function.

    • @CitizenPerkins
      @CitizenPerkins Před 7 lety

      Well, the "remote" isn't what's installed on the 2001 blazer. The Compustar "brain unit" or CPU is what's installed. Are you wanting to move the brain from Car-1 to Car-2? It might be messy and a bit costly, but I'm sure it could be done. However, you should talk to a local Compustar installer to be sure.
      Which you've probably already done since your question is over a year old.
