Detailed Feature Descriptions
Auto Immobilise
The immobiliser will always automatically activate 38 seconds after the ignition is turned off no matter what. The dash
mounted LED will come on constantly to confirm the system has entered auto immobilise mode. The vehicle cannot be
started now unless the remote is pressed first. When disarming, if you do not switch the ignition on within 38 seconds, the
immobiliser will also enter auto immobilise mode again. If you take longer than 38 seconds to exit your car & press the
remote thinking you are locking it, in fact you will actually be just turning the immobiliser off temporarily & leaving your car
unlocked. You must in this instance press your remote a second time to lock your vehicle.
Automatic re-arm & relock (Programmable)
This feature prevents accidental disarming by the owner i.e. the owner turns the immobiliser off but is then distracted and
forgets that they have deactivated the system. If a door is not opened or ignition turned on within 60 seconds from when
the system is turned off by the remote, the system will fully re-arm & re-lock the vehicle.
Note: The immobiliser will enter auto immobilise mode after 38 seconds (the LED will come on constantly to indicate the
vehicle is immobilised). At the 60-second mark, the system will fully arm & the doors will lock – the blinkers will flash once
& the siren will beep once & the LED will start flashing.
Door Ajar Warning (Programmable)
If the vehicles doors are not properly closed when you try to activate your immobiliser system, the indicators will flash and
the siren will beep for 3 seconds to alert you that the vehicle is not secure.
Timed Headlight Delay (Optional connection by installer at extra cost)
You can have your car headlights turn on automatically for 15 seconds when you arm the immobiliser by remote control.
This may allow you for instance to see your way to your front door, or out of a dark car park. You can turn the lights off
before the 15-second period ends by pressing the left button on your remote.
Perimeter Night Light (Programmable)
When this feature is on, the indicators will stay on constantly for 20 seconds on disarm, or until the ignition is turned on.
This allows for illumination around the vehicle at night.
Dome Light Extension (Programmable)
The dome (interior) light comes on automatically when the system is disarmed via remote, enabling the owner to verify
the vehicle is safe inside. The light stays on for 20 seconds, or until the ignition is turned on. The dome (interior) light also
comes on automatically when the ignition is turned off, enabling the owner to quickly gather belongings before exiting the
car. The light stays on for 20 seconds, or until the system is armed via remote, or until the ignition is turned on again.
NOTE: If you activate the Automatic Rearm & Relock Feature, this feature will be disabled.
Glass Break Sensor
The RES4601A with the addition of a special cabin microphone incorporates intelligent glass break sensing circuitry. 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 vibration to the vehicle. This ensures accurate detection of
glass breakage.

5
Door Lock On Ignition (Programmable)
If you have central locking connected, when this feature is on the doors will lock when the ignition is turned to on, and
unlock when the ignition is turned to off. This is to prevent anyone but occupants in the vehicle from being able to open
the doors.
Pre-Alert (2 Stage) Car Body Impact Warning with ETS™
This special feature provides a two-stage impact sensing system. It gives the security conscious owner a sensitive car
body impact sensor that will give a potential thief prior warning that the vehicle is protected by this most formidable alarm
system. On detection of a low level impact i.e. from a tyre kick, the siren will simply beep for a few seconds to warn away
the would-be thief. If the vehicle is attacked any further, the system will move into full siren mode. The unique ETS™
Environment Tuned Sensor is able to distinguish between environmental shocks caused by aircraft, trucks, or extreme
weather conditions, and the impact caused by any thief attempting to break in or other heavy impacts. Furthermore the
system features the unique Rhino "Auto Adjust” process, where during the 45 sec. arming delay, the alarm samples the
background noise where the vehicle is parked, and will if necessary automatically reduce the sensitivity of the impact
sensor to an appropriate level. This process allows a trouble free sensitivity that ordinary alarms simply cannot provide.
The sensitivity level reference point can be adjusted to suit your particular needs. Please refer to the programming section
contained later in this manual.
Auto Bypass
Auto bypass is designed to reduce false alarms caused by faulty switches or external sensors. If the alarm is triggered 3
times by the same sector then the particular sector 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.

Overriding the Immobiliser
Programming
How to Program the Selectable Features
Your Rhino Security system incorporates the latest in high security & convenience features. It is possible to
customise your security system so that it suits your requirements perfectly. Detailed below is the full list of
programmable features that can either be turned on or turned off.
We have set, at the factory, the most common configuration chosen and these settings are listed in the
REGISTER Settings listed below. Once the desired features have been selected, the selection is permanently
retained in memory, even if power is removed.
To turn on or turn off any feature use the following procedure: eg
to activate door lock on ignition.
1.
F
ind the REGISTER (1or 2) in which the feature is located. (E.g. door lock on ignition is located in
REGISTER 1).
2. Set the vehicle up as described to access REGISTER 1, (all doors closed, turning ignition on last).
3. After turning the ignition to on, immediately press the Left Button an equal number of times to the selected
feature’s code number (eg 3 times for door lock on ignition). Each press of the remote will be confirmed by
a flash of both the blinkers & the dash LED, a confirmation beep will also be produced.
4. Turn the ignition to off.
5. The system will then confirm which features are activated via visual readout. If a feature is enabled the
LED & indicators will flash out its code corresponding to the number shown in the column “Press Remote
This Many Times”. The indicators in this example will flash once for arming beep on, then twice for disarm
beep on, and then three times for door lock on ignition now being on.
PROCEDURE:
This feature enables the owner to override their immobiliser in case they have lost their remote controls or
they have damaged them. You have the secure choice of over 63,000 possible codes
. Refer to Register 2 of
the Programmable Feature section of this manual (page 8) on how to choose your own code. This should
be done upon installation.
To enter your override code:
1. Open your driver’s door and sit in the car. The siren will sound this is normal.
2.
Now turn the ignition from on to off an equal number of times to your first code digit (this is a number
you have chosen between 3 and 255).
3. Wait for the blinkers to flash once. (This occurs whether you have entered the correct number or not)
.
4. Now turn the ignition from on to off an equal number of times to your second code digit (this is a
number you have chosen between 3 and 255).
5.
The immobiliser will now disarm. You must start your car within 38 seconds; otherwise the
immobiliser will automatically rearm.
NOTE: Unless a remote control is learnt in, if you turn the ignition off, you will have to repeat this

Installation
“RES2001” Insurance Requirements
Some Insurance Companies in Australia will now specify that they require a Rhino Model “RES2001” Immobiliser to be
professionally fitted to their client’s vehicles before they will insure the vehicle for theft.
The code RES2001 has been especially given to insurance companies to make sure that their specified
installation of a RES4601a is carried out to their client’s vehicles. If a customer says they need to have an
RES2001 fitted this means that you must:
1. Be qualified to install an automotive security product, and if required hold the necessary security license
(compulsory in NSW).
2. Install the Rhino RAv2 with 3 separate immobilisation points (i.e. starter, fuel, & ignition).
3. Provide your customer with an invoice stating that a “Rhino RES2001” has been installed.
Installing the Main Control Unit
Mount under the dash, in a well-hidden location. Securely fix the main unit with cable ties or similar to prevent
the unit from moving around. Failure to do this will result in poor shock sensor sensitivity, and may cause harm
to the electronics.

Immobilisation Circuits. The starter wire is usually located under the steering column of the
vehicle. This wire must be +12 Volts only when the vehicle is being started. Cut this wire. The
vehicle should not start. Solder the starter motor side to both wires marked IM1B. Solder the other
end to both wires marked IM1A.
Repeat the above configuration for the electric fuel pump with wires IM2A & IM2B.
Repeat the above configuration for your third immobilisation circuit with wires IM3A & IM3B.
NOTE: For safety purposes, under no circumstances should you cut the vehicle’s main
