Pandora VS-23d User manual

Warranty obligations
Manufacturer guarantees correct operation of the service-security system if exploitation, installation,
storage and transportation conditions described in this manual were met.
The system should only be used according to installation scheme and user manuals.
The system is meant to be installed by the professional car electronics installers. We recognize that
outside Russia the system can be installed by amateurs – those installations are still a subject of
limited warranty. The installer should ll in installation certicate that is included in this manual.
Parts malfunctioning during warranty period on the fault of the manufacturer should be repaired or
replaced by the installation center of the manufacturer or by certied service center. List of certied
service centers outside Russia can be found on pandorainfo.com
The user loses the right for warranty services in the following cases:
• when warranty period expires;
• if exploitation, installation, storage or transportation conditions were not met;
• if there is mechanical damage of the external parts of the system after it is sold. This includes: re
damage, consequential damage in case of car accident, aggressive liquids and water seeping damage,
damage caused by improper use;
• if the damage was caused with incorrect settings and parameter adjustment;
Warranty period is 3 years since the moment of purchase, but no more than 3,5 (three and a half) years
since the moment of production.
This warranty does not include batteries of the remotes, as they have their own service life time.
Maintenances and repairs of the system with expired warranty period are carried out at the expense of
the user on a separate contract between the user and the installer/service center.

Microwave sensor Pandora VS-23d
This sensor is intended for additional security of car perimeter. It connects to a car service-security
system, triggers when coming to the armed car and penetrating to the car interior.
Pandora VS-23d is a compact size digital microwave sensor, herewith it is high-tech and energy ecient
with extended dynamic range.
Sensor VS-23d is designed to be installed on passenger and o-road cars, minivans, as well as on cars
with low-capacity batteries, toned and armored windows, a lot of anti-theft and musical equipment,
with voltage of on-board power supply 12V.

Mounting instruction
Microwave sensor should be installed inside of the car interior in places that provide uniform
sensitivity across the interior space (generally, between front seats of a car, under torpedo, less in the
lamp cover).

Adjusting sensor sensitivity
Sensitivity of microwave sensor VS-23d zones (warning/alarm) should be set sequentially (in any order).
Sensitivity of sensor alarm triggering zone cannot be more than sensitivity of warning zone.
When selecting the place to install the sensor, pay attention that nearby metal objects and elements of
the car body reduce the sensor sensitivity and change the diagram orientation.
The sensor can be
connected to the system base unit with the cable that is in the system set.
1. Entering settings mode
- Press and hold SETUP button for 2 seconds.
- LED indicators ashes red and green in rotation.
2. Adjusting warning level
- Press + button of 1-st SENS to increase or - button of 1-st SENS to decrease sensitivity. Hold the button
for prompt sensitivity setting.
- LED indicator displays the current sensitivity value. Frequency of indicator ashing equals sensitivity:
when maximum sensitivity - LED indicator lights almost continuously, when minimum sensitivity - it
ashes occasionally.
- The sensor proceeds to the mode of displaying active zones in 3 seconds that is indicated with single
ash of two LED indicators simultaneously.
3. Adjusting alarm level
- Press + button of 2-st SENS to increase or - button of 2-st SENS to decrease sensitivity. Hold the button
for prompt sensitivity setting.
- LED indicator displays the current sensitivity value. Frequency of indicator ashing equals sensitivity:
when maximum sensitivity - LED indicator lights almost continuously, when minimum sensitivity - it
ashes occasionally.
- The sensor proceeds to the mode of displaying active zones in 3 seconds that is indicated with single
ash of two LED indicators simultaneously.
4. Exit and save settings
- To save sensitivity value and exit settings mode, press and hold SETUP button for 2 seconds.
- LED indicators ashes red and green 3 times simultaneously.
If some buttons were not pressed for 1 minute, this mode will be exited automatically.
