Can you have the smartphone module along with the rf antenna on an EVO ONE?

I've got an RF antenna for the 2 way remote and it works great. However, today I tried installing the smartphone module with my EVO ONE and realized that it needs to be plugged into the Datalink port, the same port that the RF antenna is currently occupying. I tried using one of the harnesses to connect both, but if I have both the SM module and the RF antenna connected, the EVO ONE seems to only accept commands from the RF antenna and not the SM module (even though both of the red and green LEDs are on. Now if I disconnect the RF antenna and only have the SM module connected to the Datalink port with the harness, it works. How would I get both to work?

Informational: Interfacing Compustar T11/T12-style remotes to EVO-ONE

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.

Compustar T11 Pro abnormalities

This isnt a question. This is meant as a tool for anyone who experienced the same problems as myself with no real correct answers to be found online. I recently installled and had issues with using the compustar t11 pro rf kit with my evo-one. When using the valet switch and RF remote to program functions and options the following button mapping is correct: Lock: 1 unlock: 2 start: 3 trunk: 4 Also when I orginally purchased the T11 pro the two-way remote that came with the kit did not function correctly, which Compustar quickly remedied. However when programming the new remotes(2wt11r-ss, 1wg8r-ss) to the evo-one with the newest firmware installed I had to press the trunk button on both remotes w/ a 2.5 second hold to get them to register with the evo-one. All the strange button mapping aside. Lock/Unlock/remote start/etc, two-way functions, and vehicle temperature reading on the remote all function normally.

FTX64-2W 2-way RF Remote Doesn't Turn off after Remote Start

I am using the 2-way RF Remote (FTX64) on an EVO-One system. Things work great now, but there are times where the LED on the remote continues to flash after getting in the car and driving away. When remote started, I get in, put the key in the ignition, step on the brakes and drive away like normal. But when this happens, most of the time, the LED continues to flash green for about 10 minutes every 30 or so seconds. It's a bit of a distraction, especially when driving at night, to try to ignore this flash. Is there a reason the remote continues to flash? Is there a way to stop it?

Evo-one 2 way paging

I have a compustar slice remote kit (2W940R-SS) connected to an evo-one. All remote functions work correctly including lock/unlock/remote start as well as their respective 2 way confirmations. However, I do not get full paging/alert on remote when the alarm has been set off. Is this set up not capable of this function or is there a setting that I am missing?
