Default need help with a viper 5900 alarm

alright we just finished up the alarm / remote start install earlier today..anyway, we got everything working MINUS the window roll down feature from my keypad..we dont know how to do it so i figured id ask on here to see if anyone knew how we could make it work like the OEM does when you hold the unlock button on the key fob...any advice would be appreciated!

There are 2 aux outputs on your alarm. Connect those to your blue/green negative door locks.

The door lock wires (if you tagged it in the doors) are centralized and they'll control both doors. 1 wire is lock and 1 wire is unlock for a single pulse. On the same wires, if you neg pulse them, 1 wire will roll down the windows and the other will roll up the windows. This will take a milliamp pulse on each. Use 1 aux output on each unlock/lock wire. I forget the pager combination but I believe if you press aux & unlock and aux & lock, it'll be 2 separate channels.

When we speak of amperage to control a module, we are referring to the amount of current to run a device. In most cases, say you install your own door lock actuators to lock and unlock your doors. You can't simply run those blue/green wires to the actuators. Not enough power. This is why you use relays, to drive something with a lot of current, using little power (milliamps = 1/1000 of 1 amp). The 350z is an exception because the wires you're tapping into is before the module, all you're doing is just pulsing it, not actually driving the actuator or window module.
