Valet 712T remote start problem

I have a 97 F150 4.6 that came with the remote start when I bought the truck last year. I had to order a new remote about a week ago due to my old one quit working. The problem I have is that I followed the procedure that came with the remote, what I didn't like is that I can't hit my star button to start the truck. So I followed the procedure for my system and now the truck won't even start. Unlocking the doors works great. I have no Idea what happened. The truck attempts to start but it won't it seems like the crank time got changed by itsel after I followed the other procedure. Could the crank time have been changed and now it won't start. When I followed the procedure provided w/ the remote the truck started fine but it would run in timer mode, meaning the parking lights flashed 4x instead of 1x when compared to my old remote. I thought it would help if I cleared all transmitters but now it seems that after reading on doing that it returned the brain back to default. Any answers would be great.

The manual should have the procedure to set all the options. Do you have a PATs key?

The thing is I lost the manual for the system, but I did get a website for the programming procedure. No I don't have a PATS key, my truck didn't come factory w/ anti theft. So I know it's nothing w/ my truck since it was working w/ my old remote

To add to my lost manual, I looked at the model but for some reason I find the manual online but it isn't the right one since I have remote start. I remember my manual saying something about remote start.
