Detailed Feature Descriptions
Automatic Immobilisation
The immobiliser will automatically activate 38 seconds after the ignition is switched off - This is indicated via the dash
mounted LED, which will illuminate to confirm the system has entered auto immobilise mode. During this time the vehicle
cannot be started until a valid remote has disarmed the system. After disarming, if the ignition is not switched on before
38 seconds have elapsed, the alarm will again go into auto immobilise mode.
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 Jagv2/Rav3 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 again
become active.

Overriding the Immobiliser
Programming
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 factory set the most common configurations as listed in the REGISTER settings below. Once the
desired features have been selected, the selection is permanently retained in memory, even if power is
removed.
How to Program the Selectable Features:
1.
By referring to pages 10 – 13 of this manual, find the REGISTER in which the desired feature to be
programmed is located. That is, REGISTER 1 or REGISTER 2.
For example, to program the ‘Door Lock on Ignition’ feature, see REGISTER 1.
2.
Set the vehicle up as described to access the appropriate REGISTER.
Taking the same example from Step 1: the ‘Door Lock on Ignition’ feature is in REGISTER 1. The appropriate vehicle
setup for REGISTER 1 is – all doors closed. The appropriate vehicle setup for REGISTER 2 is – driver’s door open.
3.
Arm then disarm the alarm using ⁄. Then, switch the ignition on, then off, then on again. Now the
feature is ready to be programmed using of the remote.
4.
Within 3 seconds, begin to press an equal number of times to the selected feature code. Each press of
the remote will be confirmed by a flash of both the indicators and the dash LED; a confirmation beep will also
be produced.
PROCEDURE:
Your alarm has been loaded with a randomly generated 5 digit override code. This feature enables the
owner to override their immobiliser and start the vehicle in the case of lost or damaged remote controls.
The customer must be made aware of this code, which is placed, on the front of this manual and
the supplied override code card.
To enter your override code:
1. Enter the vehicle. If the alarm is armed the siren will sound - this may be turned off using your siren
key but will not affect the procedure.
2. Ensure that the bonnet and boot are shut, your vehicles doors may be open or closed.
3. Turn the ignition from ON to OFF in a quick steady rhythm an equal number of times to the first PIN
digit
4. Wait for the indicators to flash once. If the alarm is armed you will not be able to see the flash,
instead watch for a flash on the red dash ED
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the second PIN digit, remembering to wait to see the indicators or dash
LED flash.
6. Repeat until all five PIN digits have been entered.
7. If the code has been entered correctly, the alarm will disarm. Start the vehicle within 38
seconds or the alarm will automatically immobilise and the procedure will need to be repeated.
If you make a mistake during code entry and the alarm does not disarm, please wait at least
one minute before trying again.
Note: This procedure will have to be repeated each time you wish to start the vehicle without a
working remote. To learn in a new remote when all remotes have been lost, repeat the above
procedure with the door and the bonnet open. After the final pin digit has been entered the indicators
will begin to flash - Immediately press the
/
button on the new remote control twice and hold this
button on the second press for three seconds. The new remote should now be learnt to the system.

9
Following the previous example, programming the ‘Door Lock on Ignition’ feature requires three presses of .
This will change the setting of the feature from OFF (factory default) to ON.
5.
Turn the ignition to off.
6.
The system will then confirm if the feature has been set to ON or OFF. One beep will be produced from
the siren if the selected feature has been turned ON. Two beeps will be produced from the siren if the feature
has been turned OFF.
Detailed Example:
To program the ‘Door Lock on Ignition’ Feature (REGISTER 1; Feature 3):
1. Ensure that the vehicle’s doors are closed and the ignition is switched off.
2. Arm and then immediately disarm the alarm.
3. Turn the ignition to ON.
4. Within 3 seconds, turn the ignition OFF.
5. Within 3 seconds, turn the ignition to ON.
6. Within 3 seconds, press three times.
7. Turn the ignition OFF.
8. The feature has now been set. You will now hear 1 confirmation beep for ON or 2 confirmation beeps for OFF.

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 RAv3 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 JAGv2/RAv3 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.
Internal Connector Diagram
In case you loose track of a wire, expose the main harness connector by unclipping the case.

Factory Remote Interface
Modes of Operation:
Inhibit mode (Register 1 Feature 10):
In inhibit mode the alarm will be armed and disarmed by M1/M2 and POS1/POS2. If a negative signal is detected by
NEG1 or NEG2 arming or disarming will be inhibited. NEG1 and NEG2 would normally be hooked up to the negative
switch wires from the door or a lock/unlock switch in the car. The important thing to remember is that the alarm should
only arm and disarm from the factory remote, not from the key in the door or a switch on the dash.
Wire Inhibit mode
POS1 Positive disarm: disarms when wire gets a positive pulse
POS2 Positive arm: arm on positive pulse
NEG1 Negative inhibit: stops arm/disarm (disables other wires for short period)
NEG2 Negative inhibit: stops arm/disarm (disables other wires for short period)
M1 Positive disarm: generally boot
M2 Positive arm: positive input will arm the alarm

Enable mode (Register 1, Feature 10):
In enable mode the POS1 wire must see a positive signal to enable the system to arm or disarm. This is often hooked up
to the indicators if they flash on arming or disarming.
Wire Enable mode
POS1 Positive arm
POS2 Positive enable: this wire must go positive, or stay positive to arm/disarm alarm
NEG1 Negative arm
NEG2 Negative disarm
M1 Positive disarm
M2 Disarm: doesn’t require enable wire to disarm. Need to see any change of
state. Eg: Positive, Negative 0v to Positive/Negative
Learn Mode (Register 1, Feature 9):
Learn mode allows the system to learn the change of state on wires POS1, POS2, NEG1, NEG2 and M1, M2 to allow the
car to control the locking and unlocking. Normally you do not need to use this mode as hooking up the above wires
according to the data sheet for the specific vehicle will allow the alarm to work without changing any programming. If you
don’t have a data sheet and cannot get upgrade mode working correctly, learn mode can be activated to teach the alarm
system the vehicles lock, unlock and boot release signals.
Follow this procedure to enter and program learn mode:
1. Close the bonnet (hood) and boot (trunk) and sit in the vehicle with the doors closed.
2. Lock the doors with the factory remote.
3. Disarm the immobiliser and turn the ignition on.
4. Push the left button on the remote 9 times.
5. Turn the ignition off. The siren will chirp to indicate it has entered learn mode.
6. Within one second unlock the car with factory remotes. One chirp will be heard,
7. Wait for LED to stop flashing then immediately lock the car with the factory remote,
8. One chirp will be heard, wait for the LED to stop flashing then, if applicable, activate boot, 5 chirps will be heard. If no
boot, wait for the 5 chirps/flashes. The alarm will now arm/disarm from the factory remote.
Note: The chirp confirms learn, the LED flash between learns is to stop any other changes from being learnt i.e. if you
lock the car, it learns the pulses that started the lock, but, must ignore the pulse when it ‘stops locking’.

Turbo timer instructions
The system has two turbo timer features. Firstly it has an interface compatible with external turbo timers, and
secondly it has its own on-board turbo timer system.
Interface with external turbo timers
When this feature is turned ON, the system allows the vehicle to run on an external turbo timer for a time that
does not exceed the time programmed into the system. The system allows for 1 minute, 2 minutes and 4
minutes.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THE EXTERNAL TURBO TIMER DOES NOT RUN FOR LONGER THAN
THIS TIME AS IT WILL CAUSE THE SYSTEM TO FALSE ALARM.
How to set up the turbo timer feature and set the maximum run time:
1. Install the alarm as normal except connect the IGN input from the alarm to the vehicles accessory circuit
instead of true ignition. This wire must drop to 0v when the key is turned off and the vehicle is running on
the turbo timer.
2. Ensure all doors, bonnet and boot are closed.
3. Turn the ignition on and press , 16 times. The indicators, LED and siren will flash or chirp upon each
press of the button.
4. Now turn the ignition off. The siren should produce a single chirp to indicate that the programming mode
has been entered.
5. Pressing will increment the maximum run time allowed for the turbo timer. There are four levels; each
level is indicated by the number of chirps. See table below. It is very important that the external turbo timer
does not run for longer than the maximum run time set below as the system will false alarm.
Number of chirps Turbo timer run time
1 1 minute
2 2 minutes
3 4 minutes
4 10 secs
6. Once the desired time duration is selected simply turn the ignition on then off. The turbo timer time duration
is now programmed in.
No other programming is required to run an external turbo timer. However, when using an external turbo timer
ensure that the Onboard Turbo Timer feature in Register 1 is turned off (factory set off). Once the maximum
time is programmed, the car’s ignition may be controlled by an external turbo timer. The external turbo timer
must not run longer than the time set above or the system will false alarm.
Operation:
To operate the system simply turn the ignition off and exit the vehicle as normal.
Pressing
/
will arm the alarm and lock the doors as normal but the immobiliser relays will stay closed until
the pre-programmed time out.
If the alarm detects an intrusion the alarm will sound and the system will immobilise the engine.

17
On-board turbo timer
On most vehicles the JAGv2/RAv3 can be set up to run the on-board turbo timer by simply connecting the
ignition immobiliser wires that would normally be connected to the key side of the cut (IM2A) to +12V main
power feed as shown in the diagram below. The IGN sense wire remains on the key side of the ignition wire
while the remaining immobiliser wires (IM2B) are connected to the engine side of the ignition wire. Many
vehicles have dual ignition wires to run cooling fans. You must ensure the cooling fans continue to run when
the vehicle is running on the turbo timer. Note: IM2A MUST BE CONNECTED TO +12V MAIN POWER
FEED.
Wiring instructions:
How to set up the on-board turbo timer:
1. Install the alarm as normal except connect the ignition immobilisers and IGN input to the alarm as shown in
the diagram.
2. Set the run time as per instructions on the previous page (Register 1, Feature 16)
To allow shutting down the engine before the turbo timer times out:
1. Turn off the ignition.
2. Open the doors and bonnet and then turn the ignition on.
3. Press , 17 times.
4. Turn the ignition off. This will toggle the feature on or off. If the on-board turbo timer feature is turned on
the siren will chirp once. If the feature is turned off the siren will not chirp.
Operation:
To operate the system, simply turn the ignition off and exit the vehicle as normal. The engine will continue to
run for the preset max run time.
Pressing
⁄
will arm the alarm and lock the doors as normal but the immobiliser relays will stay closed until
the pre-programmed time out. If the alarm detects an intrusion the alarm will sound and the system will
immobilise the engine.
If the vehicle is running on the on-board turbo timer (and the alarm is disarmed) it is possible to turn the
ignition back on and drive the vehicle.

Connect to the trigger wire on optional Rhino GLU400 electric window lift module. Can also be programmed
to become a timed 15 second negative on arm wire. This will allow you to connect this wire via a relay (see
diagram on page 4) to your headlight circuit, so that when you arm your immobiliser, your headlights will turn
on for 15 seconds to illuminate your path, and then automatically switch off. (You can press the LEFT button
on your remote to turn the lights off before the 15-second period). You can still connect window lift modules
to this wire, as long as it takes no longer than 15 seconds to wind up the windows in the car. “Negative on
alarm” output must be taken from the BBSC siren.
19 BOOT- OUT This is the negative output for boot (trunk) release (150ma maximum). Optional for use where
