Wiring
Locate the power connector lead. It has four wires, Red, Black, Yellow and
Grey. The RED wire should go to the positive (
+
) and the BLACK wire should
go to the Ground (
-
). Connect up the red and black wires to a power source
such as the vehicle’s battery (preferably from the fusebox), or a regulated DC
mains adapter (12v, min 300ma), then plug the 4 way connector into the socket
on the unit.
The YELLOW wire can also be connected to the vehicle ignition (from the fusebox) at this point, but this is not essential for
basic setup.
The 16 way connector needs to be connected for the unit to operate with full
alarm functionality.
The shorter Blue and White wires (pins 5 & 8) are supplied connected to
each other and have to remain like this for the alarm circuitry to trigger.
This does not apply if you are installing in a caravan or trailer and wiring a
magnetic door contact in-line with them. The alarm would trigger if the circuit
is broken by the door opening.
Here is a diagram of the most common vehicle wiring.
Full wiring specs are in the hardware guide document. Pins 9 & 10 are for the immobilisation function, and pin 6 is
to monitor the vehicle alarm. You can remove any unused wiring if you want to.
If you are permanently installing the unit at this point, the unit should ideally be positioned with the logo side down
and antennae connectors facing backwards for best results with the Accelerometer.
The Accelerometer is a device
that detects movement. It can wake the unit up and can send you a SMS if the unit is moved when armed.
There should not be any metal covering the antennae, we recommend the dashboard cavity as an ideal hidden
place for the antennae and unit. Use the double-sided tape provided to secure the unit, the antennae has a
adhesive backing on it for fixing.
