About the design and operation of the car. Operation of the cenmax super 2 way alarm system. Review of Cenmax alarm system with and without auto start

Alarm connection

It is better to entrust the connection of the alarm to professionals, however, if the motorist wants to try it himself, then it is worth studying the instructions in detail. The connection diagram is described in the instructions. You should strictly adhere to the written instructions and observe safety precautions. After all, if you do everything incorrectly, the contacts may close and the connection wires may be damaged.

Before starting work, the first step is to disconnect the negative terminal from the battery. The electrical control unit is installed away from sources of heat and moisture. The communication module is installed on the windshield using double-sided tape.

How to install

About the design and operation of a car. There is a difference between injection and carburetor engines.
Which is better Equipment installation begins with unpacking the components, which are then connected using existing harnesses. The resulting car security system is connected to the battery terminals or to a 12 V DC source to test functionality. Additional visual inspection of components can help identify parts damaged during transportation.

The Super 2-Way signaling processor unit is located hidden under the instrument console trim; it is recommended to minimize the length of the connecting cables. The block is screwed to a metal frame. An indicator lamp indicating the operating modes of the complex is displayed on the side trim of the rack.

The siren is equipped with a waterproof housing that can be placed in the engine compartment. The location of the device should not be heated by heat from the exhaust manifold and have access through technological channels on the bottom of the car or in the wheel arches. Additional limit switches are located under the hood or trunk lid if there are no original elements in the locks. The parts are fastened inside a protective contour formed by a rubber seal.

How to use

Purpose, design and operation of the KamAZ 740 vehicle gearbox

When using the equipment, the driver changes modes using a communicator or a backup transmitter. Individual buttons are used to enable or disable protection. A key with an icon in the form of a crossed out speaker allows you to turn on the equipment without the siren beeping. The manual provides recommendations for enabling security modes.

The instructions for use recommend setting up the communicator using the following algorithm:

  1. Hold down the button marked with an asterisk until a double signal is given.
  2. After turning on the clock field, the value is adjusted (using the security control buttons).
  3. Press the star switch to adjust the minutes.
  4. By briefly pressing the star key, the user programs the alarm and timer.

The alarm system supports up to 4 communicators, which are stored in the memory of the security complex. The Super 2-Way user enters setup mode by holding the programming toggle switch for 6 seconds. To enter the code, you must simultaneously press the security mode switching buttons. The operating instructions remind you that the remote control recording interval should not exceed 6 seconds. Previously used devices are automatically deleted from memory when entering setup mode.

Setting up autorun

The equipment supports autostart only using a button located on the communicator. Starting is possible with the gear lever in neutral (manual), the ignition circuits are disconnected and the engine compartment lid switches are closed. Before leaving the cabin, you must secure the car with the parking brake.

To start the power unit, you must be in the communication zone; to turn on the starter, hold down the button marked in the form of a locked padlock. The communicator will give a signal, the button will be released and pressed again. The driver looks at the display, monitoring the moment the engine starts to work using the icon in the form of an exhaust cloud and the text St, while a melodic signal is played. The motor will run for several minutes (the time is programmed when setting up the unit) and then stop. Premature shutdown of the unit is allowed according to a scheme identical to startup.

To activate the daily start, press the switches marked with the symbols of a crossed out loudspeaker and an open lock in succession. The motor starts automatically and the corresponding icon is activated on the display. Temperature triggering starts after sequentially pressing the button with the speaker icon and the locked lock. The temperature threshold is entered by programming the central unit.

Setting up a car alarm

After installation and performance testing, you should configure the security system parameters. The functions are configured sequentially. Brief instructions will be given using the Cenmax ST-5A device as an example.

To configure programmable system options you will need:

  1. Deactivate the alarm.
  2. Turn on the ignition system.
  3. Press the service key six times.
  4. Turn off the ignition system. The alarm siren should respond to this by sending six short signals. The control diode will give 6 short flashes.
  5. Using the service button, select the required option. The data is given in the programming tables in the alarm manual. The function number corresponds to the number of times the button is pressed. It should be taken into account that in this mode, Cenmax systems signal every fifth press with a long beep. For example, to set function 4, press the button four times. In response, the alarm will give four short beeps. When selecting function 6, you will need to press the service key six times, but the alarm will give one long and one short beep.
  6. After entering the function menu, you need to assign a parameter to that option. An alarm key fob is used for this. Pressing the buttons can be short, single, or double. All parameters are indicated in the manual. After selecting a value, you must wait for a sound signal, which confirms the recording of data in the system memory.
  7. After setting the last option, turn on the ignition and exit the programming mode. The system can independently exit the menu after 5-7 seconds of waiting. This will be displayed visually – by a five-fold flash of the car’s exterior lighting lamps.

If you use a car alarm system with auto start, you must perform the procedure for learning to idle the engine:

  1. Turn off all additional devices that load the engine during operation (heated glass systems, audio system, microclimate system).
  2. Turn the key in the lock until the ignition is turned on.
  3. Press the service key nine times.
  4. Deactivate the ignition.
  5. Wait for sound and light confirmation of entering the setting.
  6. Turn on the engine.
  7. After warming up and establishing a stable idle speed, press the service control button and hold until the sound signal sounds.
  8. Release the key.
  9. If the system produces four short beeps, the learning procedure will have to be repeated.

Reasons and procedure for no response to the key fob

What to do if the alarm does not respond to the key fob? There may be several reasons:

  1. My battery is almost done . The most common reason is a dead battery, which can be eliminated by replacing it.
  2. Radio interference. It happens that radio interference interferes with the normal operation of the alarm system; to check whether this is so, you should carry the key fob close to the communication module and perform any action.
  3. Insufficient voltage. It is possible that there is not enough voltage on the dead battery. It is necessary to charge the battery or, if it is unusable, replace it.
  4. Synchronization is broken. It happens that the alarm has lost contact with the key fob and needs to be reprogrammed. To reprogram, you must first turn it off, as described above on how to turn it off.

Synchronization failures most often occur on third-generation security systems, but this does not mean that they always occur. It is best to entrust reprogramming of alarm settings to an auto electrician from a specialized service station. Indeed, besides the fact that it is not so simple, the correct setting will directly affect the operation of the security system in the future.

  2. Insert the key into the lock and turn it until the ignition is turned on.
  3. After this, press the service button four times.
  4. Turn off the ignition. The system should be deactivated.

To disable the ST-8A model system, you must enter a PIN code:

  3. Dial the first digit of the code using the service button.
  4. Turn off and turn on the ignition.
  5. Dial the second digit in the same way.
