The Turbo versions of the P385 and P785 incorporate all the features of the standard systems, except Anti-Hijack. Two versions of Turbo software exist:
- TAL – Turbo alarm includes software which allows the Alarm to arm while an external Turbo Timer keeps the engine running. The alarm is active immediately after a valid remote is pressed, but the immobiliser will activate only after the turbo timer cycle has finished.
- ITB – Turbo Software keeps the engine running without an external turbo timer. Only when the car has been driven for more than one minute, the timer becomes active. The engine will continue to run for 2 minutes after the ignition is switched off. To manually stop the turbo cycle, press the secondary button on a valid remote control.
These systems must be pre-ordered from your installer.
Arming procedure while ignition is off
The system will arm immediately if the main button of a valid remote control is momentarily pressed, the doors will lock and all security functions will become active.
Arming procedure while ignition is off and turbo timer is on
The doors will lock immediately and alarm/immobiliser will arm 7 seconds after the turbo timer has finished - when the main remote button has been pressed while the turbo timer was running.
Disarming procedure
The system will disarm when the main button of a valid remote control is pressed.
Auto Arming
The car's engine is automatically immobilised 40 seconds after the engine has stopped. The auto-arming feature is disabled while the system is disarmed and the ignition switch is in the ON position.
Dual Immobilisation Circuits
The system features two independent 30 Amp rated, normally open immobilisation circuits, which break engine critical signals in the vehicle. Starter motor, fuel pump, fuel injection, main ignition are commonly immobilised circuits
Safety circuitry in case of power failure
System sources alternate power from ignition if main power is lost
Third circuit of immobilisation (optional)
Additional immobilisation circuits can be added to conform with insurance company requirements.
Component protection against harsh road conditions
All relays are fully encapsulated to provide protection against dust and moisture.
Rolling Code / Code Hopping
Rolling code encoder with over 18,000,000,000,000,000,000+ code combinations, transmitting via 433MHz PWM RF signal
Controller Type
Uses two black ABS plastic remote controls with long life Lithium batteries
Large system memory
Allows system to track three controllers
Controller re-programming
Service technician can delete lost or stolen controllers from memory.
Remote battery life
Two CR2016 Lithium batteries have a expected average life span of between 9 and 18 months (depending on usage). Battery manufacturer may vary due to availability of stock.
Security wiring
All cables extending from the control module are black and same diameter. Identifying wire tags are removed by the installer during installation of the system
Plug and play for service
Designed to allow easy access for service technicians. Plugs and sockets are located inside the main control module to protect against access by thieves
Security housing
Connector plug is enclosed within module case to prevent access by thief.
Stealth wiring
Cutting any immobilisation wiring will still leave the car secure. Bypassing security is not possible by simply removing the system from the vehicle
Emergency Personal Identification Number (PIN) override
If the valid controller are lost, stolen or broken, the user by over-ride the system by enter the secret four digits via the ignition switch
Alterable PIN
A factory programmed PIN comes standard with each system. It is recommended the owner of the system changes the PIN to a new, easily remembered number
One shot override
Immobiliser always re-arms to protect vehicle. Re-enter PIN if vehicle needs to be driven after auto-arming has occurred
High security keys and lock
Disable siren sound when vehicle is taken in for service
PIN card
A record of the factory programmed override PIN is supplied on handy wallet sized card.
Super bright red dash LED
This LED flashes to inform user when system is armed. The LED is mounted on the driver's side dash and is visible from outside the window
Arm/Disarm confirmation
System flashes car indicators when arming or disarming.
Alarm illumination
System flashes car indicators when thief triggers alarm.
Large battery backup siren
AS/NZS 3749.1:2003 Class A approved 115dB siren, sounds even if battery terminals are disconnected from vehicle battery
Negative siren output
Can be used to trigger car horn relay or siren
Arm/Disarm confirmation
System sounds a siren when arming and disarming.
Temporary arm/disarm chirp disable
Momentarily press the second button of the remote control before pressing the main button, the siren will not chirp during that one operation.
Doors, bonnet and boot monitoring
Triggers alarm system if intruder opens any protected entry point in vehicle.
Audio glass breakage detection
Uses the sound of the breaking glass to trigger (not vibration).
Accepts plug-in Ultra-sonic sensor
Sensor produces a 40KHz sound wave and measures echo to detect intruder.
Accepts plug-in single zone microwave sensor
Sensor produces a microwave field to detect intruder.
Accepts plug-in dual zone microwave sensor
Sensor produces two microwave fields, exterior field to sound siren as warning, interior to trigger alarm in full.
Accepts plug-in single stage shock sensor
Sensor measures vibration subjected to vehicle to detect intruder.
Accepts plug-in two stage shock sensor
Sensor measures two levels of shock, soft shock to sound siren as warning, heavy shock to trigger alarm in full.
Compatible with tilt sensor
Sensor measures vehicle angle with respect to earth, triggers if angle changes - no response to vibration.
Locks and unlocks all doors
System can trigger factory central locking, aftermarket central locking or central locking relays
Variable pulse time
Extend pulse length to drive pneumatic central locking systems (Mercedes).
Automatic re-locking
System will re-arm and re-lock doors if previously disarmed by remote control and doors remain closed.
Anti-hijacking protection
System locks doors when ignition is turned on, unlocks when ignition is turned off.
Dual stage unlock
Allows user to unlock driver's door before unlocking all other doors
Current draw
<10mA average while armed. <250mA disarm (and for no more than 39 seconds after ignition is switched off).
Wide Operating voltage
Operating voltage +9VDC to +15VDC
Operating temperature
-20 degrees to +85 degrees for equipment designed to be installed within vehicle cabin
Operating temperature
-20 degrees to +105 degrees for equipment designed to be installed inside engine compartment. -20 degrees to +105 degrees for equipment designed to be installed inside engine compartment.
Polarity protection
The system circuitry is design to protect itself against accidental battery polarity reversal. This can happen when replacing the vehicle battery
Independent indicator power fuse
System uses independent fuse to power indicators, ensures short circuit in indicator circuit does not affect system operation.
Short circuit protection
The power supply wire to the system is protected against an internal fault within the system.
Panic / Car Finder
Press and hold second button of remote control to cause siren to sound and indicators to flash
Electric window closer
Provides signals used by electric window closers, system will close all electric windows when armed by remote control.
Turbo timer compatible
Alarm can be armed while turbo timer keeps engine running, then fully arms when engine stops or if connected door is opened
Courtesy light switch activation
System switches courtesy light on for 30 seconds or until ignition switch is turned on, when disarmed
Electronic boot release
Press and hold the secondary remote control button, while system is disarmed, to activate boot release output. The indicators will flash four time each time the boot release signal is sent
Open door warning
Siren will chirp 8 times if door is open, and 6 times if bonnet is open; while system is being armed
Full diagnostic report
Press and hold both buttons on a valid remote control to receive report of last three triggers
