SmartStart Compatible

If you already have a compatible Autostart remote start system in your car, the DSMU300 or DSMU350 will add SmartStart capability to your system.

Now you can remote start or lock and unlock your car just by pushing a button on your Smartphone using the exciting new Autostart SmartStart app from Directed.

The simple graphical user interface gives you control over the following features of your installed Autostart remote start or security/remote start system: Lock/arm, Unlock/Disarm, Remote Start, Trunk Release, Panic or Car Finder. You can also control multiple vehicles - great for families! - and assign more than one user to control a vehicle. It's easy with SmartStart!

Virtual Tach System

Virtual Tach System (VTS), a dedicated A-to-D converter, samples your vehicle’s voltage hundreds of times each second, eliminating the need for a tachometer wire connection. The VTS constantly monitors the data and readjusts itself automatically in order to maximize its capability to start the engine properly in any weather or deteriorating battery condition.

All-In-One Manual/Automatic Transmission Remote Starter

By default, the remote control car starters are for manual transmission, but can be changed very easily, at the moment of installation, into automatic transmission remote control car starters.

HDR Technology

HDR is an acronym for "High Data Rate" and is accurately descriptive of its function. Unlike most RF protocols, radio frequencies are broadcast at a relatively slow speed which means that the time it takes for a command to reach the vehicle, it can be corrupted and therefore not be understood by the receiver. HDR bit transfer rate is 5 times faster than conventional RF technology and thus eliminates data transfer corruption and as a result produces far better operating range than conventional RF technology.

I have installed 200-250 of the Autostart systems, every winter season, over the past 16 yrs. No system (Compustar, Viper, Clifford, Etc.) ages better and provides more reliability than the Autostart line (using its current 2017 control module). Very easy to reset main module & reconnect the control fobs years-down-the-road without a lot of unnecessary steps. Many, easily accessible control fobs still available for older systems. Very few harness changes over the years, so if you want to upgrade, generally, you can just plug-in and reprogram a new system/antenna/remotes. Great range & the same lifetime warranty as every other major brand. Well worth the money. The true #1 and little advertised Directed brand. Autostart does not require big advertising campaigns, like others under the Directed umbrella, as the product/reputation sells itself to end-consumers and installers alike. Buy Autostart, Command Start, Extreme, Polar Start, Nordic Start. They are all the same, reliable systems. Cheers.
