Standard and extended set of options
The number of security zones, each of which operates independently or is connected. It is recommended to install an Alligator car alarm with 4-6 independent control points. If an attacker turns off 1-2 security zones, this will not reduce the level of protection of the machine. Key fob functionality – budget models are equipped with an on/off button. In security systems that fall into the middle and high price ranges, the key fob is equipped with an LED screen that displays operating parameters. List of other options:
- Emergency shutdown - in the event of an accident or disturbance in the stability of the electrical circuit, the alarm operates unstable. The presence of a service key on the key fob allows you to quickly render the system inoperative. The driver enters the PIN code previously recorded in the settings.
- Range of action – it all depends on the chosen modification. The indicator ranges from 1 to 2.5 km.
- Main frequency range – data transfer between the system and the key fob occurs in a certain range. The authorized sales center will tell you which frequency is least susceptible to hacking in the region.
- Protection against forcible seizure (anti-hijack) - a special button on the key fob remotely blocks the power unit if an attacker is already inside the car.
- Additional defense mechanisms - a criminal genius is constantly finding new ways to take over other people's cars. Developers representatives have an immobilizer option. If a criminal breaks into the cabin and tries to start the engine, the Alligator premium car alarm will block the power unit.
The functional alligator alarm system is equipped with a key fob that prevents accidental pressing of buttons. In the description, the manufacturer indicates that the locking option is included in the kit. Protection against electronic radiation used to hack a machine is provided by a digital or built-in relay. Information about its availability is available in the operating instructions. Branded alarm system for Alligator cars includes a number of other features:
- “comfort” – the ability to connect a sunroof closer, an electric window lift;
- “saving” – the key fob reduces battery consumption;
- “informing” – key fobs of premium modifications of the protective system display information about engine t;
- “ICE protection” – reduces the wear rate of the diesel engine;
- “timer” – turns on the engine in a given time period;
- “search” – the driver will quickly find the car that he left in a large parking lot;
- “Additional support” – a built-in additional power source reduces the likelihood of losing control of the alarm in the event of a low battery.
There is no limit for further perfection. The developed Alligator mid-range car alarm is equipped with additional outputs that are needed to connect new protective units.
On a note!
In the instructions, the manufacturer indicates that the system is equipped with the option of connecting at least 2 additional communication channels. If there is no such mark, then new protective blocks cannot be installed.

Keychain appearance
You can determine the Alligator model by the design of the keychain, for this:
- They visit the official website, view alarm models and compare them with their version of the device.
- They find a description of the Alligator model on the Internet and, comparing the types of keychains by external features, look for their own.
- They try to get acquainted with their alarm system by studying the instructions for models that are externally similar.
- Alligator key fob alarm models, which are similar in appearance, may be different in their design.
Having looked at the images of key fobs of various models, you can find out that at first they were produced with 2 buttons, without feedback and limited functionality. Then, with the addition of security system functions, key fobs were replaced by three-button remote controls. The Alligator alarm system belongs to the latest version model and is produced with a four-button remote control equipped with a display and feedback.
Models with buttons
Each series of Alligator security car alarms was produced with a design unique to this version of the model. Thus, the first devices were produced with two buttons, without feedback and with limited functions. The role of the buttons was to open and close the doors and open the trunk. Such an alarm system is inexpensive and belongs to the budget category.
With the increase in functionality, the appearance of the remote control also changed; a third button and an LED were added, while the functions of the buttons remained the same.
More advanced models of Alligator security alarm systems with expanded functionality and feedback are produced with a remote control equipped with a display with 4 buttons.
Remote controls with display
Almost all remote controls with 4 buttons are equipped with a display. But there are four-button remote controls without it, and they are equipped with a feedback function. The display is informative, displays all the functions of the security device, so autostart is displayed in the lower right corner of the screen.
In addition, remote controls of the same series can be interchangeable, for example, devices from the SP “family,” and modifications 30/40 of the same line can even recognize the alarm model if the key fob is of a similar design. But the remote controls of the latest, later series cannot be recognized by devices of earlier versions.
Signals coming from devices of a similar design can be easily read by a security car alarm installed on a car, provided that the communication range is within the limits, because Each remote control has its own range.
Key fobs with a display are available in versions with 5, 4 and even 3 buttons. Remote controls with a screen are available in the Alligator device only with feedback.
Identifying the alarm system using the key fob, especially if the company logo has been preserved, will not be a big problem. To identify the device, just visit the manufacturer’s official website.

How to extend autorun
Sometimes it becomes necessary to start and extend the operating time of the motor by one cycle. To do this, you can use different combinations on the key fob (most often you need to single or double press *).
In any case, first of all, pay attention to the model of the remote control. For some 5-button two-way devices, you will have to click on the crossed-out speaker and AUX symbol, and for 4-button devices, you will have to click on the crossed-out speaker and “*”. The combination must be activated after startup.
By the way, on many alarm models it is possible to set an unlimited start time. For example, on S-825RS, press the open trunk icon, then press * for 3 seconds.

- Next, preparations are made for connecting the main unit.
- The final stage is checking the performance of the car. After this, the alarm installation is carried out directly.
Because Alligator car alarm instructions are similar to each other; just look at the instructions for one model.
- Removing the panel.
- Fixing the device.
- Connecting wires and components.
- Reinstalling the panel.
Below is a standard car alarm connection diagram.
Before assembling the panel, be sure to check the functionality of the alarm using the key fob, as well as the alarm function.
Reviews
Positive | Negative |
High-quality model, large set of functions, works well. | The range is less than stated by the manufacturer. |
A good option with auto start and feedback, it is very convenient to use remote start using a timer. | After a long period of use, the buttons began to stick. |
Rich equipment, you can install it yourself or contact a specialist. | Quite quickly the paint on the buttons and the plastic of the key fob body began to wear off. |
Possibility of connecting optional equipment. | The plastic is quite thin; when dropped, key fobs often break; you need to buy an additional case. |
The best ratio of quality and price. | Sometimes it doesn’t immediately respond to commands, so you have to press the buttons on the key fob several times. |

How autorun works
Before using Alligator autorun, it is important to understand the features of this option. The purpose of automatic start is to start the engine after issuing a command from the remote control or when a certain condition is met to prepare the car for a trip. For example, the system can start a car in winter to warm up the engine and interior using the heater, and in summer, on the contrary, to turn on the air conditioner.
There are two options for how to start an Alligator car from autostart: using the remote control or by setting certain conditions. When a command is received, the lock is released and the starter rotor begins to rotate. In this case, the owner of the alarm can control certain parameters of the car through a programmed key fob.
Let's briefly look at how autostart works on the Alligator alarm system. The scheme is like this:
