After reading lots of threads about various alarm/immobiliser issues i have a recommendation ... when ever and no matter for what reason you plug in a tester, beside the main reason for what you've got there, enter in the BCU menu too and set the alarm on "always disarm with key" mode. This setting will help you to unlock the car with the key in case of fob/receiver failure without triggering the alarm... the fobs used to fail to unlock/disarm the alarm quite often from various reasons and if it's not set this way there is the risk to stay near an immobilised car or be recovered for serious money untill the problem will be fixed. Though EKA code will still be needed if the passive immobilisation is not disabled and the fob doesnt comunicate with the receiver so to be able to remobilise it only with the key without using the EKA code the passive immobiliser must be disabled in the BCU as well .... it's a matter of choice though
