 Rain Sense is an add-on option for Cool+ and Classic models. This sensor mounts inside on the windshield near the rear view
mirror. It measures about 1" square and simply sticks in place. Cable
is supplied to connect to AutoWindow module. When it rains vented windows
will close automatically! |
|
Rain Sense compatibleAutoWindow Cool+ has all the remote window capabilities of the Classic model plus adjustable temperature venting using built-in Heat Sense. Cool+ works while you are away to prevent your parked car from becoming
an oven. Cool+ also offers regular VENT and CLOSE remote commands to keep windows vented (or closed) without any unwanted temperature control actions when not desired. The
choice is yours to give AutoWindow a command to do what you want each time
you leave the car!
THERMO-CYCLE command first closes windows and then waits to vent when it becomes too
hot inside, then waits to close again after cooling off, and repeats this
cycle as necessary. Minor temperature fluctuations are ignored to avoid
excessive window operation and battery drain.
THERMO-CLOSE command vents right away and windows stay vented until a cool temperature
can be maintained for at least 15 minutes, then it closes windows and the
command is completed with no further venting.
Nite Sense option adds more function to Cool+ THERMO commands. Nite Sense closes
THERMO vented windows at nightfall (low light condition) and keeps windows closed in darkness no matter how hot it gets inside the car. Nite Sense allows THERMO-CYCLE to resume venting the next
day (temperature permitting) but keeps THERMO-CLOSE windows shut after
closing. For safety, Nite Sense does not interfere with or close windows
in any other circumstance. Nite sense does not operate with VENT, ONE-TOUCH
VENT, or on windows which have simply been left open.
Rain Sense option works with all venting modes of Cool+, including: THERMO-CYCLE and THERMO-CLOSE, VENT,
and ONE-TOUCH VENT. No matter which AutoWindow command is used to vent
windows, Rain Sense shuts windows and keeps them closed if it rains! For
safety, Rain Sense does not interfere with or close windows under any other
circumstances. Nite Sense and Rain Sense options may be ordered together
on Cool+ and all work together on THERMO commands.
Cool+ includes a Temperature Control Guide for using all these exclusive features:
| Press remote... | Command | AutoWindow Cool+ does this... |
   (unlock lock) |
THERMO-CYCLE activation |
(Command works when THERMO-CYCLE mode is set). This command closes windows and sunroof and then monitors interior heat rise. The heat sensor will VENT when temperature exceeds the set limit for a period of time. The sensor will VENT-CLOSE when temperature falls below the limit for a period of time. The vent/close cycle may repeat as necessary. |
( )(lock..) |
THERMO-CLOSE activation |
(Command works when THERMO-CLOSE mode is set). This command closes sunroof and VENTS windows, then waits 15 minutes before monitoring temperature drop. The heat sensor will VENT-CLOSE if interior temperature remains consistently cooler than the set limit for a period of time. After windows close, they will not vent again in this mode - the car stays closed regardless of temperature rise. |
(lock) |
THERMO-STOP | Cancels all THERMO-CYCLE or THERMO-CLOSE activity, closes vented windows and deactivates temperature sensing. |
Heat Sense is included inside every AutoWindow Cool+ and is set at the factory to
approx. 110º F (40° C). It has a screw-adjustable trigger covering
a range from room temperature to melting point. Heat Sense can be enabled
or disabled. When enabled, a Cool+ temperature mode can be selected (SETUP options) for using THERMO commands.
Nite Sense (if equipped) includes a tiny light sensor for discrete interior mounting. The suggested location is on driver's door and does not require
any drilling. If your Cool+ is equipped with Nite Sense, it always monitors
ambient light while any THERMO command is active. Responsiveness to dusk
depends on having an unobstructed view from the sensor through the window.
When a preset light level is reached for one minute Nite Sense closes windows
which are currently vented by either the THERMO-CLOSE or THERMO-CYCLE command.
Rain Sense can also be added with Nite Sense for combined benefits.
Rain Sense (if equipped) includes a sensor that mounts on the inside of the windshield near the rear view mirror. Just peel and stick! All necessary
tools and cables are included for the job of connecting to the AutoWindow
module. Rain Sense monitors the rain sensor when windows have been vented
by AutoWindow, and it will close windows if rain is detected. Response
time to rain is just a few seconds so little moisture has a chance to get
in. Rain Sense does not allow the Cool+ THERMO commands to re-vent windows
after closing them for rain - they will stay shut. Add Nite Sense and all
three sensors (Heat, Nite, Rain) work together for complete protection
from the elements!

AutoWindow Brite has all the Basic remote window commands plus AUTO-BRITE feature that illuminates your walkway at night using headlights. Feel safer around your car in the dark and see the path for sure footing. Arming or disarming the car from the remote turns on HIGH or LOW beams (your choice) and automatically extinguishes them after 15 seconds.
AutoWindow Brite includes Nite Sense to prevent AUTO-BRITE headlights from coming on during the day - when
illumination is not needed. A small light sensor mounts on the door to
monitor ambient light coming in through the windows.
Exclusive features of Brite model:
| Press remote... | Command | AutoWindow TT/RS does this... |
| ...ARM (in darkenss) |
AUTO-BRITE | Any remote command or key operation that results in arming or disarming the car in darkness turns on headlights for 15 seconds. AUTO-BRITE works in conjunction with remote window commands: CLOSE, ONE-TOUCH UP, and OPEN. Entering the car while AUTO-BRITE headlights are on will extinguish headlights immediately. |
| ...DISARM (in darkness) |
||
(unlock unlock lock) |
BRITE-NOW | This remote command forces headlights on for 15 seconds in any light condition (daytime or nighttime). |
AUTO-BRITE and BRITE-NOW are designed to work only if the car is parked
with engine off.

AutoWindow TT/RS has all the Basic remote window commands plus special features for cars with aTurbo Timer and a Remote Starter. TT/RS works for all 1998+up car models with any brand of turbo timer and solves the security problem of arming the car after
turbo timer cooldown on the 1.8T. AutoWindow locks and arms the car - and it can even roll up windows! TT/RS also supports aftermarket Remote
Car Starters that have auxiliary input to trigger the start/stop sequence.
AutoWindow lets you use the car remote to start the car!
With TT/RS you don't hack into your fuse box or immobilizer circuitry and
there is no risk of tripping AIR BAG check light or other diagnostic sensors
- unlike other turbo timeout approaches you'll find out there. Be kind
to you car and get TT/RS.
Exclusive features of TT/RS model:
| Press remote... | Command | AutoWindow TT/RS does this... |
| Leave car running (no press) |
TURBO-LOCK | (Default). When Turbo Timer cuts the ignition after leaving the car, TT/RS locks the car and arms the alarm. |
| TURBO-CLOSE | (Configurable option). Performs TURBO-LOCK and also rolls up windows and closes sunroof. (STOP and RETRACT remote commands may be used to halt windows/sunroof.) | |
| Leave car running (key ) |
TURBO-STOP | Turning key in the door lock to UNLOCK (once)prevents TURBO-LOCK / TURBO-CLOSE "this time only". TT/RS will not lock, roll up, nor arm the car after TT cuts off - car stays unlocked. You can then lock the car by key after TURBO-STOP and car locks with no further TT/RS action when the timer cut engine. |
(unlock unlock lock) |
AUTO-START | Locks all doors, arms car, sends negative pulse trigger to Remote Starter auxiliary input to start car sequence. Events for starting the car are determined by your Remote Starter configuration. |
TURBO commands are designed to work only after the driver exits the car
with engine running. For driver and occupant safety TURBO commands don't function unless the driver has exited the car prior
to the TT shutting the ignition off. If the driver remains seated or is
exiting (door open) when the TT cuts ignition AutoWindow will not lock, arm, or perform window / sunroof actions.
After exiting the car with TT running you may take any of the following
actions:
1) walk away and let AutoWindow lock, arm, (and optionally CLOSE) when the TT cuts off,
2) lock the car using key (won't arm), walk away and let AutoWindow arm
(and optionally CLOSE),
3) lock and use key to roll up windows / sunroof (won't arm), then let
AutoWindow arm,
4) unlock using the key, so AutoWindow does nothing when the TT cuts off,
car stays open,
5) unlock using key, pause 2 seconds, re-lock using key (won't arm), and
AutoWindow does nothing when TT cuts.
TURBO commands do nothing if the driver exits the car after the TT shuts off. In this case, use the key or remote normally to lock
and arm the car. Or you can use an AutoWindow command like ONE-TOUCH UP to lock, arm, and roll up windows & close sunroof - all with one press
of the remote LOCK button!
Some Turbo Boost Controllers and Remote Car Starters have a built-in cool
down period (delayed ignition shutoff feature). AutoWindow TT/RS works the same with these devices and all dedicated turbo timers like
APEXi, HKS, Greddy, etc. AutoWindow TT/RS retains compatibility with your Remote Car Starter's
remote and its other functions - you may use either remote for starting
the car.
Configure TT/RS from the remote using SETUP. You can temporarily remove all TURBO commands and AutoWindow features
for vehicle servicing and enable them later - it takes less than a minute.

Rain Sense compatibleAutoWindow Classic has an extensive list of convenient remote window commands. OPEN, CLOSE, VENT (vent gap adjustable), STOP, RETRACT, ONE-TOUCH UP (VENT or CLOSE selectable), VENT-CLOSE, and SETUP/programming are discussed in detail on the features page.
Classic has the widest range of configurable options to satisfy the most
demanding needs. SETUP uses the alarm LED on driver's door to show option settings and guide you through the selection
process. Classic can be tuned to make windows do precisely what you want
from the remote.
Rain Sense option for Classic works on all venting modes. Rain Sense closes vented windows if it rains. For safety
Rain Sense does not interfere with or close windows under any other circumstances.
Rain Sense includes a sensor that mounts on the inside of the windshield near the rear view mirror. Just peel and stick! All necessary
tools and cables are included for the job of connecting to the AutoWindow
module. Rain Sense monitors for moisture hitting the windshield. All venting
commands are protected by Rain Sense. Response to rain takes only a few
seconds for closing vented windows under wet conditions.
Classic is the original and best selling remote window controller of all
time!

AutoWindow Reflex is designed specifically for cars with exterior folding mirrors, as featured
on SEAT Leon Cupra R and high-line VW Golf / Bora. Reflex has remote mirror
folding and remote window commands all in one package! Integrated control
lets you do things like press one button (LOCK) to: lock and arm and fold mirrors and roll up windows and close sunroof when leaving the car. Never forget to fold mirrors again!
Unlocking commands unfold mirrors so the car is ready to drive when you
get inside. With different Reflex commands you choose to control locks
only, or locks and mirrors, or locks and mirrors and windows! The interior
folding switch retains its function so it may be used for un/folding as
well.
Exclusive features of Reflex model:
| Press remote... | Command | AutoWindow Reflex does this... |
(unlock lock) |
FOLD-UP* | Folds mirrors then rolls up windows and closes sunroof (if equipped). |

AutoWindow Reflex commands are mindful of commonly performed tasks while leaving or approaching
the car. ONE-TOUCH commands are very convenient for un/folding mirrors each time without
having to think about it! Like all AutoWindow models, Reflex also offers
STOP and RETRACT commands to halt/reverse/prevent window travel for safety or convenience - see features.
Use SETUP/configuration from the remote to quickly change between three modes of
operation: Default operation, POWER Pack option, or Off.
