Compustar cs700as with evo-all I've noticed something, it starts and shuts off when the cars isn't running for a while but if I electric start it right after I turn the car off it will start and run like it's supposed to. Is it a program issue I've noticed I can change things to customize my car on the software I downloaded on my pc.....

sounds like a tach issue. there's a setting/procedure to program tach in the remote starter. You should be able to find the procedure in the cs700 guide.

Remote starters all have diagnostics codes when vehicles do not start. the parking lights wil flash x-amount of times after the vehicle attempted its 2 or 2 start then shuts down. This will help you know where the problem may be. it would also confirm that it's just a tach issue.

If using datalink, the compustar needs to have it's datalink option to Fortin protocol. Or just completely forget about datalink and wire the tach input of the remote starter to the tach output of the evo-all. (by removing datalink you will also need to contact lock, unlock, brake from the remote starter to the evo)
