The buttons are numbered (not literally) clockwise 1-4 with the large arm/disarm button being number one. The side button is a shift level, which allows button one to then become number 5, or button 3 to become number 7. Depending what model it is will vary if it has 12 channels (early version) or 16 channels (later version). Most of them will do nothing as they are meant for use with things like second cars, garage door opener etc. Some are for the accessory channel outputs, and depending what model some are for programming. The ones that should do something are, 1 arm/disarm, 3 silent arm/disarm, 5 or 9 valet mode ( shift button once, then button 1 for channel 5, or shift button twice then button 1 for channel 9 ) , 10 prox sensor turn off (depending on model) channel 2,4,8 I think are normally the accessory outputs.

If you want to test the alarm press the big one in for a few seconds and it activates the alarm (like a panic alarm, it does on my clifford concept 500)

Sit in your car, set the alarm, then move.... does the alarm go off (once the alarm is fully set)

Sounds like a pretty old alarm. Could pop into an alarm fitter and get them to configure it for you.

Concept 50x. Came with One grey remote and one "fake wood" remote. 8-9 years old and no longer thatcham approved IIRC.

Providing it was fitted before the change of the Thatham list came into effect (Oct 2000 ??? ) then it is still approved.

Correct-a-mundo :)

However, 7 year old alarm, I would be tempted to get a new one that you could configure etc :)
