Connecting EVO-CHRT5 to Crimestopper RS7-G4 via Data Link, What other connections are Required?

0 votes
I have a 2007 jeep compass. I am installing a Crimestopper RS7-G4 and a Fortin EVO ALL with a CHR T5  harness. I will be using the data link connection between them. I know I must still connect the parking lights through the remote start unit, because that is not supported by the EVO. But I am trying to figure out if I must still ground the RS7-G4 unit and connect power to the RS7-G4 unit or if the data link will provide them? Also The EVO must get connected to start and ignition wires on the vehicle. Do I also need to connect them to the RS7-G4? and if I do is it ok for both units to be connected to the same wires? Thank You very much for your help! I am having trouble finding information regaurding what all connections still need to be made to the RS7-G4 when using the data link.

It's good practice to power the remote starter separately; 12V and ground.

Anything else required would be outlined in Connection D. It's pretty much connect the dots from there.
