Abstract

A vehicle security system programmer includes a housing and a plurality of manually settable switches carried by the housing. The vehicle security system is switchable to a programming mode responsive to a programming mode signal, and when in the programming mode sets a plurality of programmable features responsive to feature programming signals. The programmer also includes a programming mode circuit for communicating to the programmable vehicle security system a programming mode signal. Accordingly, the programmer can set the vehicle security system to the programming mode. In addition, the programmer also includes a feature programmer circuit for communicating to the programmable vehicle security system a plurality of feature programming signals based upon the plurality of manually settable switches. The programmer may be set for a number vehicle security systems, and sequentially connected to the vehicle security systems' for programming. The programmable vehicle security system may include a plurality of input conductors. Accordingly, the programming mode circuit and/or the feature programmer circuit may impress signals on at least one of the input conductors. The programmer may also communicate over a data bus with the vehicle security system controller.
