TACHOMETER CALIBRATION 368
•Tachometer calibration is automatic. To complete calibration, simply
keep the vehicle at a steady speed for at least 8 seconds. The product
continues automatic calibration throughout its working life so that the
speedometer reading becomes increasingly precise.
•It is also possible to accelerate this process by means of manual
calibration when the product is first installed so that its starts operating
with a relatively precise setting (manual calibration is recommended, for
example, if precise verification of driving above the speed limit is required
immediately)
•The menu opposite shows tachometer calibration based on the
frequency read at 50Kmh.
•Procedure for correct calibration:
- enter the menu by pressing the OK key
- take the vehicle to 50Km/h
- keep this speed steady and press OK
- press OK again to confirm (or Cshould you want to cancel the operation)
Caution:
We recommend two people do this together: one should drive and the
other should carry out calibration with the Sat Programmer. The
manufacturer is not liable for any damage or injury caused by failure
to comply with the above instructions.

INFORMATION ON CALLS:
•If you confirm receipt by pressing a key the first time the device places a voice call, subsequent calls will not be made; this
does not apply to SMS format as there is no way of knowing whether the user has received the message or not.
• The voice call consists of the transmission of a synthesized voice message which is repeated until the user confirms receipt
by pressing a number key on the telephone. For example, in the synthesized message, the voice will say “Car alarm from car
XXX …. press any key to confirm”, where XXX stands for the vehicle’s numberplate (identified with numbers only; letters are
not synthesized).
•The SMS call consists of the transmission of a message to the mobile phone which will say: “Car Alarm (from burglar alarm)
from vehicle: YY XXX YY” where YY XXX YY stands for the vehicle’s numberplate.
•For voice calls concerning the CAR ALARM and BATTERY ALARM messages, the discreet listen-in function will start inside
the vehicle’s interior after the user has confirmed receipt by pressing a key, so that it is possible to realise what is taking
place inside the vehicle. Hands-free connection will start if 2# is pressed on the telephone (only if the hands-free kit is fitted
and operational)
•For voice calls relative to the AID REQUEST message, hands-free connection will be established inside the vehicle’s interior
after the user has confirmed receipt by pressing a key (only if the hands-free kit is fitted and operational)
•This menu is used to prevent the device’s SIM card telephone number
being displayed to the receiver of the call.
•The sole exceptions are the numbers stored as Golden Numbers as this
function has no effect on these and SMS, as it is technically impossible
to conceal your identification (ID) in this case.
Possible selections: NUMBER PRIVACY ÷DISABLED

VEHICLE CONSIGNMENT
CUSTOMIZING THE PASSWORDS
After completing installation, for safety reasons, you must alter the passwords to access the various levels in the Sat
Programmer. This will allow the product to be used and programmed only by authorised personnel in possession of the
correct access codes.
The passwords for the UNBLOCKED and UNBLOCK FUNCTIONS levels must be keyed in by the vehicle’s owner alone.
These passwords must remain confidential. The installer must key in his own secret password.
In this way, the user (if provided with the Sat Programmer) will only be able to access certain utility levels, such as
phonebook management, but will not be able to alter any parameters that are fundamental for the correct operation of the
device. In the same way, the installer cannot access the product unless it is first disarmed by the owner by means of his
password.
It is possible to access all the menus for the modification of the passwords from INSTALLER level.
This is the UNBLOCKED level password. The default setting
is 11111 but it will be displayed as asterisks at installer
level for a question of confidentiality.
The password can be any number with 5 to 8 digits
This is the UNBLOCK FUNCTIONS level password. The
default setting is 33333 but it will be displayed as asterisks
at installer level for a question of confidentiality.
The password can be any number with 5 to 8 digits.
This is the INSTALLER level password. The default setting is
44444. The number is displayed since there is no need for
confidentiality since it is the installer’s own number. The
password can be any number with 5 to 8 digits

SWITCHING THE DEVICE ON AND OFF
HOW TO SWITCH OFF MAINTENANCE MODE 431
The last step required before the vehicle can be consigned to its owner, is to render the device operational. This step
enables the product to be finally armed so that it can send alarm calls or warnings should a situation arise where this is
necessary. To do this, enter INSTALLER Level and call up the appropriate function:
HOW TO SWITCH ON MAINTENANCE MODE 430
The device must enter maintenance mode again if extra work is required at a later date, or if the device needs replacing or
quite simply if the vehicle’s battery must be disconnected or replaced. To do this, ask the owner to access the UNBLOCK
FUNCTIONS level; he must enter his secret passwords to do this and the installer can then enter his level by keying in his
own password. At this stage, locate the function to activate maintenance mode and thus prevent alarm calls from being
made.
SWITCHING OFF THE DEVICE
In order to switch the device off correctly, it is important to first enter maintenance status and then disconnect the power
supply. This ensures the product will switch off completely instead of remaining powered by means of its internal back up
batteries.
Failure to comply with the above instructions will result in the device remaining operational for as long as its internal battery
remains charged and battery alarm calls will be placed if configuration of the relative list was completed.
