What is the maxiumum current (mA) I can draw from the +12V line in the shock sensor port of an EVO-ONE? Thanks, Jeff

I'm not a Fortin rep but someone might find this useful -- I struggled with making these types of Compustar remotes work with the EVO-ONE. There are a few reports here of success with these remotes, and I had to do alot of experimentation to get satisfactory results, because these reports were somewhat vague and didn't cite which Firmware revisions were used when these observations were made. I can report that Firmware 7.1.24 (latest as of this thread) allows full function of these remotes without any drama, with the exception of a missing "remote start ready" (engine icon) indicator, which to me isn't any type of deal-breaker considering the capabilities of these units. Temperature, voltage, trunk, remote valet, alarm paging, etc. all work. The Fortin documentation states that FW 7.0.96 must be flashed for (supported) Compustar remotes, but this FW level is not sufficient to get full function from the (unsupported) T11/T12 remotes. 7.0.96 - Couldn't program remotes with Mode 1 or Mode 5. 7.1.16 - Remotes programmed immediately on Mode 5 and function, but temperature and voltage status reported erroneous numbers. 7.1.24 - Remotes programmed immediately on Mode 5 and all functions appear to work, with the exception of the "ready" engine icon which indicates a remote start is possible. IMHO, might be an issue for manual-transmission vehicles. Remote start functions regardless. To get this remote to work, flash the EVO-ONE to 7.1.24, and program the remotes with Mode 5. That's it. ** IMPORTANT ** -- There's no LED or valet switch on the antenna, even though the plastic housing looks like these features are there. This seriously confused me. I was trying to press that plastic square over-and-over thinking this was a valet switch, but it's a cosmetic feature, and does nothing, and there's no LED. I had to pop the antenna open to confirm this. Just flash to 7.1.24 and follow the instructions in the Compustar document from Fortin to program the remotes using Mode 5.

I have an EVO-ONE installed in a 2017 Civic LX coupe, conventional key, manual trans, with T-harness (THAR-ONE-HON2 12-B1). The remote-start/bypass/alarm all work properly. It's my understanding the brown wire on the T-harness (the one with the fuse) from the ignition harness can be used for a siren. What settings do I need to enable to make this work? Right now, when the siren is connected and I crank the car the siren goes off continuously. Thanks, Jeff

This is more of anwsering my own questions that I had prior to installing my system. I have an eve-one installed and a compustar t11 & g15 pro rf kit. Both remotes programed as expected with the lock button. The g15 pro works 100% as expected, aside from not sounding off when the alarm is set off (but that's how it's supposed to work). On the t11 remote the voltage and temprature work great. The only thing that doesn't work as expected on the t11 is the engine icon, which should be lit when the car is able to be remote started, is not lit. The car still remote starts, you just dont get the engine icon that says it's ready to be started. In all though the compustar t11, g15 pro and the ant-2wdss antenna work great with the evo-one.
