Directed is now shipping its all-new DS4 digital remote start platform that includes Bluetooth. For dealers, it eliminates the need for special tools when flashing remote starts. For consumers it allows free remote start from a phone when in close range to the car.
The new DS4 Digital System is a remote start/security system, interface and Bluetooth 4-in-1 system. With the DS4, installers no longer need an XKloader or Bitwriter. They can program the remote start directly from a smartphone or tablet with an auto-firmware lookup feature.
The new Bluetooth capability gives users free smartphone control within 100 feet of the car. So you can remote start the car or lock and unlock doors from the phone. You also get 3X lock start from the factory keyfob without any remotes.
Installers can now scan the VIN number of a car, and with an app, they are taken directly to the correct page for downloading firmware for that vehicle.
The DS4 also has simpler connections for sensors and other devices. All fuses and relays are now in the unit itself and not in a harness. It supports more than 7,000 vehicles. It also has 5 high current relays to support remote start on older vehicles.
The DS4 comes DirectLink, a new proprietary wireless programming connection between the service technician and the system module in the vehicle via the integrated Bluetooth technology, reducing errors and installation time.
