2. Installation & Operation
2.1. Planning the Installation
Each separate component of the RAM should be placed in strategic locations. Below is a
guide to where you should locate the main unit, the phone antenna & the siren.
It is important to remember that the GSM antenna must be located high, but just
underneath the centre of the dashboard out of sight. An external antenna is not used for
security purposes.
Planning and Wire Routing
Figure 1
Main
Unit
The RAM main unit should be located under the dashboard; out of sight from
any would be thief. The main module does not have to be on the driver’s
side, but is probably more convenient to install on the drivers side as most of
the wires used will be found on the driver’s side
Siren
Route the black wires from the BBS Siren through the firewall of the vehicle.
Use an existing hole if possible & seal with silicone if required.
GSM
Antenna
The phone antenna must be placed under the dashboard at the very top, or in
the pillar, preferably furthest away from any metal as the phone signal
transmits and receives through the windscreen. The antenna should be
straight with no bends. The antenna is the last 8.3cm of the antenna wire,
which has been stripped.
I.e. The antenna should be placed under the dash and stuck to the very top of
the underside of the dash above the speedometer or as high as possible

1,14
&
2,13
Locate the positive feed wire to the fuel pump, cut that wire and join each pair of wires from pins
(1,14) & (2,13) to either end of the fuel pump feed wire which you have just cut WARNING: The
Internal cut out relays have an 8 AMP maximum rating. Disable only starter solenoid, fuel
pump, or ignition coil if the vehicle is not EFI. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU
CUT THE VEHICLE’S MAIN IGNITION SYSTEM. These wires should be kept as short as
possible.
3
Connect to existing door switches. (PLEASE NOTE: Only negative switching doors, if positive
door switching – must use relays to reverse to negative).
4
Connect to pin switches for bonnet.
5
Dummy wire. Not used.
6
Negative trigger to siren. Connect to the negative (open) trigger back up battery siren (BBS). This
output is normally negative and goes open circuit to trigger the siren.
7
This is the negative output (150mA maximum) for the boot release. (Optional connection for use
where electric boot release is to be connected.
8
Negative on arm. This is a switched negative output (150mA maximum). The output switches
negative when the system is armed. Connect it to the negative wire of accessories to the alarm
that need to turn on only when the system is armed. (For example usually black on the ultrasonic
detector.
9
Connect to a +12 Volts ignition switched lead, which DOES NOT FALL TO 0 VOLT WHEN THE
ENGINE IS CRANKED.
10
Negative pulse unlock signal (150mA maximum).
11 & 12
Connect to the left and right indicator circuits of the vehicle to flash the indicators. Each circuit
can supply a maximum of 4 AMPS.
15
Negative trigger on alarm to be used to interface to pager (100mA maximum).
16
This is a negative auxiliary trigger, and should be connected to the output circuit wire on the
ultrasonic detector or microwave detector.
17
Connect to pin switches for boot (PLEASE NOTE: It is advisable to wire the boot to the door
switches: this will provide “door ajar warning” on the boot, and also signal the auto re-arm feature
to cancel if the boot is opened by the owner on disarming the system).
18 & 19
Locate the positive feed wire to the starter solenoid, cut that wire and join each pair of wires from
pins 18 & 19 to either end of the starter feed wire which you have just cut WARNING: Cut out
relays have an 8 AMP maximum rating. Disable only starter solenoid, fuel pump, or ignition coil
if vehicle is not EFI. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU CUT THE VEHICLE’S
MAIN IGNITION SYSTEM. These wires should be kept as short as possible.
20
Negative pulse lock signal (150mA maximum).
21 & 22
The dash LED is pre-wired to these wires. 21 is the positive and 22 the negative side of the LED.
23
Negative Ground. Connect to the chassis of the vehicle.
24
Connect to constant +12 Volts via the fuse box at the point where the interior light circuit is
powered. Current/Voltage sensing will not work if this procedure is not followed. Current
consumption when the system is the untriggered quiescent condition is typically less than 60mA.

12
2.2.2. Installing the Glass Break Microphone
The glass break microphone is permanently attached to the
RAM via a 1-metre length of shielded audio wire. This wire
must not be cut or modified in any way.
The microphone must be mounted on the front of the dashboard.
Be sure to mount the microphone in a place where it will not be
bumped or damaged from persons in the vehicle. There is a clip
attached to microphone to assist in mounting the microphone to
the front of the dashboard.
The RAM incorporates an intelligent glass break sensing system. This inbuilt device
will trigger the alarm system, provided it registers the correct sound frequency
parameters for breaking glass & that the impact sensor also registers a corresponding
impact to the vehicle. This ensures accurate detection of glass breakage. This trigger
activation will be sent as ‘GLASS’ in a SMS alert message.
2.3. Installing & Wiring the Siren
Installing the Siren
Figure 3
The Siren is normally mounted to the firewall inside
the engine bay of the vehicle.
See the figure which shows how the siren is mounted
using the mounting bracket and accessories supplied.

13
Wiring the Siren
* This wire is normally earthed and goes open circuit to trigger the siren
- Before connecting each wire, the identification label on the end of each wire should
be cut off.
Back up battery test
After the installation is complete, switch the siren to the on position. The siren will beep
once if the backup battery is OK and 5 times if the back-up battery is flat. The key
switch is an over-ride for siren, not the alarm system. If the sirens’ battery is still flat
after charging (being powered up) for 24hours, the battery should be replaced. Please
call your supplier.
Over-ride:
Turning the key switch to the off position will disable the siren (not the alarm system or
phone). Please note that if you turn the key switch off at the siren, the RAM main
module will still operate.
1. Off position - the siren is turned off.
2. On position - the siren is turned on.
3. Test mode - turn key from off to on. 1 Beep = OK, 5 Beeps = Flat battery
+12V: Connect to
constant 12V
GND: Connect to
Earth
*SIREN: Connect to siren wire on RAM (pin 6)

14
2.4. Installing The Antenna
Installing the GSM Antenna
Figure 4
The phone Antenna is connected to the main unit by
plugging in the antenna into the back of the RAM unit
as shown in Figure 4.
2.5. Sim Card Setup And Functionality
Place the new SIM card in an existing mobile phone and deactivate (turn off) “pin code
request.” You may need to refer to your mobile phone manual on how to do this. Insert
the SIM card into the RAM.
Save the RAM phone number in your phone to easily recall for sending SMS
commands. i.e. RAM or Car Alarm or another meaningful name. This way when the
RAM calls because an SMS did not get through or sends a normal status message you
will know that it is the car that has attempted to call you and be able to take immediate
action.
Installing the Sim Card
Before you insert the Sim Card you must be certain that the POWER and BACKUP
BATTERY are removed from the alarm. You can then place the Sim Card in the holder
on the front of the unit as shown and re-apply power otherwise you will damage the
Sim Card!

15
2.6. Accessibility Note
To prevent unauthorised access to the alarm, the user is required to ALWAYS put the 6
Digit PIN (consisting of 0-9, A-Z) (the Default Pin Number is – 000000) at the start of
each SMS command to confirm the user has access to change the alarm condition (this
is nothing to do with the SIM card PIN number) i.e. Arm, Disarm, Activating relays etc.
If the PIN number is forgotten, please refer to section 3.4.4. To Change Your Pin
Number – Page: 30.
2.7. Alarm Messages
NOTE:
WHEN WRITING A SMS MESSAGE TO GO TO THE ALARM NO SPACES
ARE TO BE USED IN COMMANDS
i.e. 000000COMMAND.
When your alarm is triggered / activated, a SMS Message will be sent to all the phone

will be bypassed. (i.e. The sector will become inactive.)
The sector will only be bypassed for one arming period. The next time the system is
armed the sector that was bypassed will become active again.
2.8.9. Door Ajar Warning
If the vehicles doors are not properly closed
when you try to activate your alarm system
with remote controls, the blinkers will flash and
the siren will continuously beep for 3 seconds
to alert you that the vehicle is not secure.
When trying to ARM the alarm by sending the
message “ARM” from your mobile phone, the alarm will still arm. Though the
message that will be sent back will read “Alarm armed. Door ajar warning.”
2.8.10. Auto Immobilise
The immobiliser activates 60 seconds after the ignition is turned off. The dash
mounted LED will stay on constantly to confirm the system’s special status. The
vehicle cannot be started unless the remote is pressed. If the remote is pressed again,
the alarm will arm as per normal operation.
2.8.11. Passive Arming
The alarm can automatically arm itself one minute after you leave your vehicle
provided that the ignition is turned off, and that at least one door has been opened
and closed i.e. the owner has parked and has exited the vehicle. This feature will not
lock the vehicle where central locking is connected.
2.8.12. Automatic Re-Arm
This feature prevents accidental disarming by the owner i.e. the owner turns the
alarm off but is then distracted and forgets that they have deactivated the system. If a
door is not opened within one minute from when the system is turned off by the
remote, the system will re-arm and if central locking is connected it will re-lock the
vehicle.
