All about the Starline A39 car alarm with installation and operating instructions

The Starline A39 alarm system is popular among many Russian car enthusiasts. The complex combines excellent security functions, as well as many options that make life much easier for the owner. For example, it can configure the turbo timer parameters, automatically start the engine using an alarm clock, timer or engine temperature, as well as learn about the location of the machine and control many functions remotely through a mobile application (if there is a GSM module in the system). A detailed description of the capabilities of the Starline A39 car alarm is presented in this article.

Model overview

The Starline A39 2can 2lin security and telematics system has several configuration options, differing not only in the year of manufacture, but also in some of the functions of the complex.

The basic version of 2 channel 2 line has all the necessary functions, including silent arming and disarming, turbo timer mode, remote engine start, as well as settings for almost all required parameters. The dialogue code can significantly reduce the risk of car theft, and a special lock using a PIN code protects the owner in case of loss of keys. How to set up the Starline A93 key fob.

The advanced model 2can 2lin GSM with engine start function belongs to the same line, but has an additional module that allows remote control via SMS message or phone call. There is also a self-diagnosis system, and the owner receives notification of malfunctions on his mobile phone. The use of special radio interference protection guarantees an excellent signal even in urban environments.

However, the system has some disadvantages. For example, it practically never appears on the open market, and its installation can only be ordered from an authorized dealer. Owners complain about thin plastic keychains that break from small impacts. They also note that autostart does not work correctly at low temperatures. And for installation you will need to purchase special modules CN and VGK74 Q4 for full implementation of functions.

  • increased risk of false alarms and incorrect operation in winter;
  • the need to purchase additional modules;
  • small diameter of installation wires;
  • the need to reconfigure some parameters.

How is it different from the A93 model?

Differences from A93 include the following characteristics:

  • lack of an interactive authorization system;
  • impact resistance of the body of the A93 alarm key fob (in the A39 model, the pager is characterized by increased sensitivity to mechanical damage);
  • functionality (model A93 has a wider range of modes and options).

Alarm equipment

The security complex includes:

  • main control unit responsible for alarm operation;
  • main remote control with LCD display and feedback. To protect fragile plastic from damage, it is recommended to purchase a case;
  • spare key fob without screen;
  • AAA battery to power the pager;
  • switching relay;
  • power block;
  • transceiver antenna;
  • standard immobilizer crawler module;
  • a set of cables required for connecting CAN and Lin buses, special connectors, as well as wires for connecting nodes.

  • limit switches on the doors, trunk lid and hood;
  • temperature sensor installed directly on the engine;
  • terminals for connection to the vehicle power circuit (12 volts);
  • service key Valet;
  • instructions for use and installation of alarm systems.

How to install

According to the installation instructions, the installation procedure includes the following steps:

  • Connection to power source. The black ground wire is equipped with a metal tip, which is connected to a standard nut on the body. The +12V battery terminal is connected to the head unit connector using a thick cable.
  • Connecting the relay to the positive cable. The safety switches and the head unit are powered by separate fused circuits. When connecting the processor device directly to the battery, a copper cable is used. A 30 A fuse is installed separately.
  • Connecting the system to the CAN bus. A separate connection is created to control the headlights and door locks.
  • Installation of an auxiliary relay. They break one of the engine power circuits, where a protective part is introduced.
  • Installation of limit switches. When connecting these elements, it may be necessary to disable the CAN bus control capability. The brake pedal and parking lever are connected to the limit switch terminals.
  • Connection of the unit with the siren and headlights. A standard horn can be used to provide sound notification.
  • Installing the engine temperature sensor and immobilizer bypass.
  • Installation of emergency button and LED element.
  • Connecting the antenna module to the head unit.
  • Installation of additional blocks and controllers.

Control key fob

The Starline A39 alarm kit comes with two remote controls. The first is the main one, with feedback. Its difference is the presence of a liquid crystal display, which shows the symbol of the machine. There are four keys on the front side. By pressing one or a combination of buttons, the main functions of the system are controlled. Special icons and symbols on the screen help determine which functions are currently active.

How to attach a key fob to a Starline A91 alarm system

If the main key fob is lost, it is not replaced by a spare remote control with a vertical key arrangement. They are placed on a large plane instead of a liquid crystal screen. And the indicator in this case is an additional LED. The remote control has the same functionality as the main pager, with the exception of feedback from the owner.

Installation of alarm system Starline A39

There are certain rules for installing car alarms. It doesn’t matter which model the Starline A39 is installed on: Mazda6, Hyundai or Skoda 2018: the location of certain elements will be the same.

To install the Starline A39 alarm system on a car you will need:

  • set of wrenches with socket heads;
  • drill with drills;
  • soldering kit: blowtorch, rosin, tin, etc.;
  • heat shrink tubes, insulating tape.

  1. Car alarms are installed exclusively on cars with an electrical circuit of 12 volts. It is advisable to place the main unit in a place protected from vibrations. The most preferable installation location is under the dashboard - this guarantees concealment from prying eyes, as well as a minimum length of connecting wires. The block is fixed using self-tapping screws or double-sided tape to eliminate the possibility of spontaneous movement.
  2. A transceiver with a signal diode is mounted on the windshield of the car. The main condition is a distance of at least 5 centimeters from metal parts in order to avoid interference or distortion when receiving signals. The interior temperature sensor is mounted so that it is away from heat sources or direct sunlight for it to work correctly.
  3. The engine temperature sensor must be mounted on its body using one of the M6 ​​bolts. It is advisable to attach it closer to the crankcase cover rather than the cylinder head.
  4. A siren is also mounted in the engine compartment. The main condition is to avoid moisture, and also place it away from large heat sources to prevent the horn from melting. Also, the siren connection wires should not be accessible from under the car so that an attacker cannot cut them.
  5. The shock sensor is located near the center pillar. It is advisable to mount it so that you can access sensitivity settings if it triggers too often.
  6. The Valet service button is installed in an accessible but hidden place. The inner sides of pockets for small items, the central tunnel between the seats, the plane under the decorative plugs of the front panel, etc. are suitable.
  7. Also, to connect and configure automatic start on cars equipped with a manual transmission, you will need to program the neutral and connect the limit switches to the handbrake. If the car is equipped with an automatic transmission, then the owner must move the lever to the parking position, otherwise autostart will not occur.
  8. First, all nodes are installed, and then the system is connected according to the diagram below.


Power is supplied through two main wires:

  • black. The negative terminal that needs to be attached to the car body is ground;
  • red. The positive wire, which is recommended to be connected to the battery or ignition switch.

If the car can be started using the Start button, then the connection is made in a slightly different way:

  • the red contact is attached to the battery, but through a fuse designed for a current of no more than 30 amperes;
  • The blue wire is connected to the brake pedal;
  • the yellow-black cable connects to the start button;
  • the yellow and green contacts remain unused.

To implement autorun and turbo timer, an additional algorithm is used:

  • the red wire connects to the battery;
  • yellow cable to the ignition system;
  • green – to the ACC output;
  • blue is redundant;
  • the black and yellow contact is connected to the starter.

Basic rules for installing a security system

To install the Starline A39 alarm system with automatic engine start of an old or new model, you need to take into account the recommendations:

  1. The microprocessor device is located hidden, in a place least exposed to high temperatures and humidity. The module must not be placed near the air ducts of the heating system. The unit is equipped with a built-in interior temperature sensor, so this arrangement may lead to incorrect readings.
  2. The antenna adapter module is placed as high as possible on the rear window or windshield. The distance between the transceiver and metal surfaces must be at least 5 cm. If the car is equipped with rain and light controllers, the adapter must be placed away from them. In addition, you cannot install the antenna module on the top of the glass if a tint film is applied there - this impairs the reception and transmission of signals.
  3. The alarm status LED is placed in a visible place in the cabin, near the windshield. Its location on the instrument panel is allowed.
  4. Before installing the system, you should connect all its elements separately from the car and connect them to the battery. This will ensure that the complex is in good working order before installing it on the machine.
  5. The siren is hidden in the engine compartment, in the driest place, not exposed to critically high temperatures. The horn of the device must be placed downwards, this will avoid the accumulation of moisture inside. The power supply line must be equipped with a 3 ampere safety device.
  6. The temperature controller is installed on the engine crankcase or any metal surface adjacent to the cylinder head. The device can be installed in the cooling system pipe. Do not install the sensor near the exhaust manifold, as this will lead to deformation of the regulator body due to exposure to high temperature.
  7. Wires are laid under the decorative lining of the interior. Electrical circuits must not be laid in places where moving mechanisms and components of the car are located.

Installation of the Starline A39 2CAN+2LIN anti-theft system is carried out on a car with a disconnected battery.

Starline A39 programming table

The security complex can be customized exclusively for yourself: to do this, you need to enter the programming mode. To do this, you will need a key fob and a Valet service button. The latter is mounted by installers in places inaccessible to an attacker. If its location is unknown, it is worth checking the space on the central tunnel between the front seats, near the pedal assembly and steering column, the space inside the glove box, the compartments for small items on the door cards, and also under the front panel (near the fuse box). The procedure then proceeds as follows:

  • with the ignition off, press the Valet button five times;
  • the ignition turns on and the car emits five siren signals;
  • using keys two and three on the control panel, you select the required programming item;
  • key three is pressed until the sound signal sounds to confirm the choice;
  • use buttons two and three to select the required option;
  • other keys on the key fob set the required parameter according to the programming table;
  • The mode is exited and the parameters are saved after the ignition is turned off.

Let's sum it up

The steps and recommendations described above on how to enable autorun on Starline are almost the same for all models, but there may be slight differences. For this reason, it is recommended to study the manual for specific models separately.

Setting up autostart in Starline alarms is carried out by the installer himself: it is necessary to configure the algorithm according to how a particular alarm was connected; “training” of the correct idle signal is required. However, often the owner needs to change a number of initial setup parameters - increase the autostart time or set the timer. If any problems arise, we carry out the setup cycle again to make sure that this is not the reason why the car does not start with the key fob. It often happens that an alarm makes the task easier and indicates the Starline error code on the key fob.

As an example of configuration, let's take a common alarm model - StarLine A93. The configuration principles that are described for it are also suitable for other models of this company, and when understanding the principle of autostart operation, we will also understand the alarm systems of other companies.

Starline A39 settings

The Starline A39 car alarm has many functions that make life much easier for the owner. But to set them up and activate telematics, you need a key fob that will be tied to the car. The binding process is carried out as follows:

  • you must press the Valet service button seven times with the ignition off;
  • the ignition turns on, and the car emits seven sound and light signals confirming the transition to the desired mode;
  • Now on the key fob you need to hold down the first and second buttons until the melodic signal from the remote control.

You can attach a spare key fob in the same way, the main thing is that the interval between actions does not exceed five seconds. Exiting the settings mode is done by turning off the ignition, after which the car will blink its headlights three times.

Service mode

This option is needed to diagnose the Starline A39 alarm system at a service station or service station. If it is activated, the security functions are disabled, it is impossible to link new key fobs and some additional settings. Switching to this mode is possible using the service button. If the owner does not know where it is, then this operation can be performed from the remote control:

  • the car is disarmed, and then the second or third key is pressed for four seconds;
  • after two signals (one melodic and one short), you need to briefly press buttons two and three to move the cursor to the wrench icon;
  • confirmation of the choice is made by briefly pressing the first key.

Turning off the mode occurs in the same way.

How to set the clock on the Starline A39 key fob

It is extremely important to correctly set the clock on the Starline A39 remote control. Due to an incorrect indicator, various operations (auto-heating, etc.) may be performed incorrectly. To set the clock at the correct time you need:

  • press and hold button 4. This allows you to exit to the functions menu, which will be indicated by one melodic and two short sounds;
  • Now the clock on the display has started flashing. Using keys two and three you can increase or decrease this indicator;
  • Pressing button 4 again allows you to go to setting the minute indicator;
  • it is carried out in the same way, by pressing keys two or three;
  • The next step is to set the alarm. And to confirm the value, simply do not touch anything for eight seconds. The parameters will be saved automatically.

Setting up the shock sensor

The Starline A39 security system is equipped with a shock and tilt sensor, which eliminates the possibility of theft by diving onto a forklift. This setting is easy to configure. To adjust the parameters of the shock sensor you need to:

  • turn off the ignition, and then press the third button for a long time, and then briefly press the same button again;
  • using the second and third buttons we adjust this indicator;
  • The menu can also be accessed by pressing button three (long press).

You can also adjust the tilt sensor:

  • turn the ignition key to the Off position;
  • press the fourth key until the signal sounds, and then briefly again;
  • Use buttons two and three to set the required value (factory setting is 10);
  • exiting the mode is similar to the first step.

How to turn on the turbo timer

This security system, in addition to auto-warming, has a convenient timer function that allows you not to turn off the engine with a turbine after long or intense trips. The fact is that as a result of such trips, the turbine impeller warms up to a temperature of 850-1000 degrees. Rapid shutdown leads to a serious temperature difference and a decrease in service life.


This function allows the engine to operate remotely, up to a suitable temperature. You can program this option as follows:

  • We press the second button until the corresponding sound signal. After this, the left icon on the display begins to blink;
  • use buttons 3 and 4 to move the cursor to the Turbo symbol;
  • after pressing the first key, three beeps will sound, and the car will turn the headlights on and off twice;
  • The first key sets the desired value from R01 to R06. The numerical value at the end is equal to the number of minutes of the turbo timer (maximum period - 6 minutes, minimum - 1 minute);
  • press button one for a long time until the sound signal sounds;
  • The Turbo symbol becomes active, which means that the turbo timer will work according to the specified settings.

Setting the warm-up time

Auto start is an extremely useful option, because the owner gets out and gets into the car, ready for the trip. However, at different temperatures, the auto-warm-up time may vary. You can increase the operating time of the motor as follows:

  • if the engine is already running and you want to extend this action, then you should hold down the first button;
  • each long press will add 5 minutes to the set parameter;
  • the maximum value in this case is 30 minutes.

How to reduce engine operating time during autostart

If you want to set the default warm-up time, and not extend it while the engine is already on, this is done through a special programming mode.

  • press the Valet service button five times with the ignition off;
  • turn on the ignition, listen to five sound and light signals from the car, confirming the transition to programming mode;
  • On the key fob, briefly press button three to go to the SF table;
  • Now press key three for a long time, and then briefly press it again;
  • by briefly pressing the third button, we switch to the corresponding function two (auto-warm-up time);
  • now, using the first button, the parameter changes (it can be set to 10, 20 or 30 minutes);
  • When the ignition is turned off, the system retains the set value.

How to enable autorun

You can set the key fob to automatically start the engine at a specified temperature. This allows you to start and warm up the engine in extremely low temperatures. To do this you will need:

  • place the cursor on the corresponding thermometer icon, and then press the first key when you hear a melodic signal;
  • by short pressing the first button, we set the appropriate value in the range from -27 to -3, in increments of 3 degrees;
  • Long press the first button until two short beeps sound.

The display will now show the corresponding icon and the engine will start automatically if the temperature drops below the specified value.

Silent mode

The Starline A39 system has a silent security option, which is useful at night in densely populated areas. In this case, the car will not make sounds, and when trying to enter the cabin, the car's dimensions will flash. In this case, there will be a noticeable vibration on the key fob, and corresponding alerts will be written on the display. Setting up this mode is very simple - just hold down the first key for a long time (until a melodic signal is heard), and then briefly click on the second button. The key fob will play one sound, and the display will show an icon with a crossed out speaker.

How to open the trunk with the key fob

To perform this function correctly, you will need to connect the trunk limit switches. The electronic key is connected through an additional channel that requires separate activation. After this, when you press the second button for a long time, and then the first briefly, the car will respond with three sound and light signals, and the trunk lock will open. If the security mode is disabled, the shock sensor is also deactivated.

Disabling Confirmation Tones

If necessary, the Starline A39 system offers programming of the volume of siren signals. To do this, go to the programming menu:

  • Press the Valet service button 5 times;
  • after this, the corresponding table is selected, and then the third key is pressed for a long time, then briefly;
  • The volume level indicator appears on the display (factory setting – 2). Using keys 2 or 3, the required level is adjusted from one to nine;
  • To remember the parameters, you must turn off the ignition.

How to increase the sensitivity of the Starline A93 alarm

Correctly locking windows

To perform this task correctly, it is necessary that the car has window closers, for example, like on the Skoda Octavia A7. This option is carried out through the programming mode and through additional channel No. 4:

  • go to the programming mode by pressing the Valet button five times with the ignition off;
  • turn on the ignition, listen to five sound and light signals from the car, confirming the transition to programming mode;
  • using the third key on the remote control, select additional channel four;
  • set the necessary parameters on the third function (time delay - five seconds);
  • The selection is remembered after the ignition is turned off. Now the windows will automatically go up without jerking after arming the car.

How to change your personal code

Each Starline A39 alarm model has a personal code. It is necessary for emergency exit from the security mode (if the key fob is lost or the anti-theft mode is deactivated). Its parameters are set through the programming mode:

  • Press the Valet service button four times with the ignition off, and then it turns on;
  • now the service button is pressed one more time;
  • one siren signal confirms the transition to the corresponding mode. Within five seconds, enter the first digit of the personal code (in accordance with the table) by pressing the corresponding buttons on the remote control;
  • similar actions are performed to program the second digit of the code;
  • The value is stored automatically - just do not press anything for 10 seconds.

User manual

According to the operating instructions for the Starline A39 2CAN 2LIN alarm system, the security system is configured and used as follows:

  • The key fob is switched to tag mode. To do this, long press the “1” key. Activation of the simple security mode is accompanied by the appearance of a red light indication.
  • Adjust the range. To do this, press the “4” button 11 times, after which the ignition is turned on. Simultaneously pressing buttons “1” and “3” causes a blue indicator to appear. After this, briefly press the “2” and “3” keys and go to the range change menu. The indicator is changed using the buttons “2” and “3”. In a similar way, other settings necessary for comfortable use of the system are changed.
  • Switch on security mode. To do this, briefly press the “1” button. Repeated pressure deactivates the function. To enable the silent security mode in the Starline A39 CAN alarm system, use buttons “1” and “2” in sequence.

When the engine is turned on or the car doors are open, some functions of the Starline A 39 CN 2 CAN signaling are not activated.

Installation of GPS/GSM module

To use the full functionality of the Starline A39 alarm, you will need to install a GSM module. This will allow you to start the car through a mobile application, as well as activate additional options. The installation process goes like this:

  • you need to gain access to the central unit. It can be located in the engine compartment or under the front panel. In this case, it will be necessary to remove the decorative parts;
  • disassemble the processor module and install the GSM module in a specially designed slot;
  • Install the SIM card that comes with it into the module. You can install any card, but the standard tariff is designed specifically for exchanging data over the Internet, so you won’t need to top up your balance often;
  • Assembly and connection of the processor unit is carried out in the reverse order of installation.

Pros and cons of a security system

List of main advantages of the Starline A39 alarm system:

  1. Availability of additional functionality that simplifies the use of the complex. This refers to autostart, pre-heating of the engine, etc.
  2. Versatility of the security system. Starline A39 can be used on passenger cars and SUVs with diesel or gasoline engines, regardless of the type of gearbox. Also, the use of the “signal signal” is possible on cars equipped with a Start/Stop button.
  3. The ability to independently adjust the sensitivity of the shock sensor.
  4. Availability of a control system via a mobile application or computer. To do this, the user must register in advance on the official Starline website.

Disadvantages of this Starline model:

  1. Complicated service manual. If the user is inexperienced and has never set up a car alarm, this task may be difficult.
  2. Fragile body of the communicator. If dropped, there is a possibility of damage to the device and its failure. To restore functionality, the communicator will need to be repaired.
  3. There may be malfunctions of the anti-theft system at low subzero temperatures. User reviews show that already at -20 degrees the system begins to function incorrectly.
  4. There are still defective copies on sale. In the first years of production of these systems, a large number of defects ended up on the shelves of auto stores. The manufacturer Starline recalled all such alarms from the market and replaced them under warranty. But there are stores where there are remnants of a defective batch of the A39 system. There is a high probability that they will not work correctly.
  5. To implement all functions, the user will need to additionally purchase and install the appropriate Starline modules.
  6. The package includes wires that are too thin and short. This leads to their rapid wear and the need for extension during installation.

Starline A39 2CAN+2LIN anti-theft systems are usually installed in car dealerships, so most of the functions and parameters remain unconfigured.

Phone control

The developer of the Starline A39 system offers customers a convenient mobile application, available for installation on any phone with the iOS or Android operating system. To implement this function, you will need to install and connect a GSM module. With its help, you can control various functions - set automatic start parameters, configure the turbo timer, adjust the signal volume. All parameters are configured through a convenient and functional application menu.

Basic alarm faults


Sometimes the Starline A39 car alarm can malfunction and cause problems for its owner. Among the most common complaints:

  1. The alarm does not pick up at 20 meters and does not go off. The reason why the car is not disarmed may be a bad signal. In this case, the car simply does not have feedback from the key fob, and accordingly, it does not perceive commands. In this case, you need to check the condition of the power supply element of the remote control, perhaps precisely because of the weak signal, and replace the battery if necessary. Additionally, you need to check the area for radio interference.
  2. There are also options when the siren goes off spontaneously. The reason for this behavior is that the shock sensor is too sensitive. Both stages (impact and hacking) can be adjusted using a standard screwdriver, reaching the sensor itself (it has special controls).
  3. Sometimes autostart with automatic transmission does not work on the car, and SP lights up on the key fob display. This means that the car tried to start the car four times, but the starter simply did not have enough force. It is recommended to start it manually or increase the duration of its operation. In this case, for autostart it is necessary that the car is in neutral and the parking brake lever is fully tightened.
  4. If the alarm does not work, and additional software errors appear (the car starts and stalls, does not close the doors, does not disarm, etc.), then it is best to reset to factory settings. After this, most of the problems should disappear, but if they can’t be fixed, then it’s better to take the car to a specialized service center, where qualified specialists will sort out the issue and fix all the problems, perhaps the mass is loose or the contact is lost somewhere.

Review of Pandora DXL series car alarms.

PositiveNegative
I use Starline a39 dialog turbo timer. Installed in the showroom of a Kia Serato. I didn’t really delve into the intricacies of the connection, since I trust professionals, and there is a guarantee for their work. The alarm performed well. It slows down a little in cold weather, but everything is fine. I've been using it for six months now. After installation at the car dealership, I encountered several problems. The second key fob did not want to be removed from the alarm. I went to the service center and it turns out I need to install a tag on it. The tag was installed, and another problem began - spontaneous activation. I went to the service center and they set it up. Now, when the handbrake is installed, auto start is set, which should not happen. In short, I'm already tired of going to the service center.
Excellent alarm, all functions work. What I like most is the engine heating and the ability to view it on my phone. It's also good that there is a PIN code and engine lock. Even if someone gets into the car, they still won’t be able to steal it. Terrible alarm and terrible service. When the A39 started to malfunction, I contacted the official call center, where my issue was not resolved. They sent it to the station where they installed it. But I bought the car second-hand in another city, and I don’t know where it was installed. Now you have to look for specialists yourself and pay money.
The alarm was purchased at a Renault service center. I immediately stuffed it with everything I could, because the installation is free only once. I bought a module for mobile communications (it turns out that a regular chip is inserted there, like on a phone). Now I can talk to my car on the phone))). I also asked to install window closers so that they would close on their own. Of course, I had to buy a few more things, but now it’s a complete set! It works very poorly in cold weather. It slows down and doesn't work. Autorun cannot be turned on exactly when it is needed most. I didn’t like the keychain at first, it was kind of flimsy in appearance and scary to hold in my hands. I shouldn’t have agreed to this signal.
I haven't been using it for long, about a month. Very satisfied. There are simply a huge number of functions, I didn’t even have time to try them all. It is convenient that there is auto start and a temperature sensor in the cabin. The battery charge also shows. I need this because I often leave my car under guard for a long time. The manual is very confusing, setting something up on your own is almost impossible.
One of the most reliable and modern Starline alarm systems. It has everything you need and even more. I think that I don’t use half of the functions at all. As for the work, it's excellent. Everything works, the car obeys perfectly. It’s good that there is an additional engine lock; you can sleep peacefully, knowing that your brand new car won’t be stolen. This alarm was sold to me when I bought a new car at the dealership. I agreed in a hurry, which I now regret very much. There is simply no signal. The key fob is inconvenient and eats batteries like crazy. Often triggered by loud sounds and passing cars. There is not a word in the manual about how to set up the shock sensor. On my previous car I had an old APS, and it was much better. And here there are a lot of bells and whistles, but no sense.

Autorun operating principle

The general principles of autorun operation are the same everywhere.

On cars with a manual transmission, it is necessary to correctly perform the “soft neutral” procedure - it is needed so as not to leave the car in gear. While the engine is running, we provide the alarm with information about the intention to reserve autostart. There are three options on Starline A93:

Important! If you disarm a car that is prepared for autostart, the reservation mode will be canceled and the reservation will have to be done from the beginning.

  1. From the handbrake: with the engine running, apply the handbrake, then turn off the ignition. With this setting, pulling the handbrake while the engine is running automatically triggers the backup relays of the autostart module - when you remove the key from the ignition, the engine will continue to run. When the alarm receives a signal about the opening and closing of the doors (the driver and passengers have left) and is armed, the engine will stall and the car will be ready to start. Let's disable mandatory arming - then the car will stall immediately when the doors are closed, but if you open the door again, the reservation will be cancelled. The option when the engine stalls when armed is preferable.
  2. Button on the key fob - while the engine is running, tighten the handbrake and then press button 2 on the key fob. At this moment, autostart will be reserved; further actions will be as in step 1
  3. When the ignition is turned off, backup occurs automatically when you try to turn off the engine with the ignition key. You should not use this mode.

If you have a car with an automatic transmission, there is no need for a “soft neutral” mechanism. Therefore, the autostart backup mechanisms in the first and third options are different - in the first case, pulling the handbrake is mandatory, in the second, backup will occur every time the ignition is turned off. This is more convenient in winter, so as not to risk the pads freezing. Unlike the setting on a manual transmission, the engine stalls immediately when the ignition is turned off.

After the reservation, autostart is used - by pressing or holding button 1 of the key fob or using the mobile application if you have a telematics module installed. In this case, the order of operation of the alarm is as follows:

  1. The ignition duplication relay is activated. For a car, this is the same as turning on the ignition with the key.
  2. A signal is sent to the immobilizer crawler to simulate the presence of a chip.
  3. After a few seconds for the fuel pump to work out or the glow plugs to warm up, a signal is sent to the starter relay - an attempt to start is made.

Further actions are determined by the settings: by cranking the starter, the alarm constantly tries to determine the fact of starting. If information about this can be read from the CAN bus, then everything is simple; with an analog connection, a signal is required depending on the settings:

  • A sharp increase in the signal frequency at the tachometer input (setting “by tachosignal”)
  • Appearance of voltage at the input (setting (“by generator”)
  • Increasing the voltage in the on-board network (the “battery charging” setting) is the worst method, which we avoid, as it leads to overexposure of the starter in the on state.

If the alarm does not detect a start, the ignition and starter are turned off, and after a delay the cycle is repeated several more times. Having failed to start the engine after all attempts, the alarm sends the corresponding information to the key fob.
