DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
DESCRIPTION
The electrical system is Negative ground, and it is
most important to ensure correct polarity of the
electrical connections at all times. Any incorrect
connections made when reconnecting cables may
cause irreparable damage to the semi-conductor
devices used in the generator and regulator. Incorrect
polarity would also seriously damage any
transistorized equipment such as radio and
tachometer etc.
WARNING: During battery removal or
before carrying out any repairs or
maintenance to electrical components
always disconnect the battery negative lead first.
If the positive lead is disconnected with the
negative lead in place, accidental contact of the
wrench to any grounded metal part could cause a
severe spark, possibly resulting in personal
injury. Upon installation of the battery the positive
lead should be connected first.
GENERATOR
The generator is a three phase, field sensed unit. The
rotor and stator windings produce three phase
alternating current, AC, which is rectified to direct
current, DC. The electronic voltage regulator unit
controls the generator output voltage by high
frequency switching of the rotor field circuit. Use only
the correct Vehicle replacement fan belt. Occasionally
check that the engine and generator pulleys are
accurately aligned.
It is essential that good electrical connections are
maintained at all times. Of particular importance are
those in the charging circuit (including those at the
battery) which should be occasionally inspected to
see that they are clean and tight. In this way any
significant increase in circuit resistance can be
prevented.Do not disconnect battery cables while the engine is
running or damage to the semi-conductor devices
may occur. It is also inadvisable to break or make any
connections in the generator charging and control
circuits while the engine is running.
The electronic voltage regulator employs micro-circuit
techniques resulting in improved performance under
difficult service conditions. The whole assembly is
encapsulated in silicone rubber and housed in an
aluminium heat sink, ensuring complete protection
against the adverse effects of temperature, dust, and
moisture etc.
The regulating voltage is set during manufacture to
give the required regulating voltage range of 14.2±
0.2 volts, and no adjustment is necessary. The only
maintenance needed is the occasional check on
terminal connections and wiping with a clean dry
cloth.
The generator system provides for direct connection
of a charge (ignition) indicator warning light, and
eliminates the need for a field switching relay or
warning light control unit. As the warning lamp is
connected in the charging circuit, lamp failure will
cause loss of charge. Lamp should be checked
regularly and spare carried.
When using rapid charge equipment to re-charge the
battery, the battery must be disconnected from the
vehicle.
NOTE: For description and operation of
electrical circuits see separate publication:
Electrical Troubleshooting Manual.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Radio frequency system
The RF system uses four frequencies according to
market. If the coaxial aerial is not fitted system
performance will be impaired. Both ECU and handset
have a colour coded label.

Partially armed mode
If a door, tailgate or bonnet [hood] is left open when
the system is armed, the LED will not light for 10
seconds indicating a mislock condition. Hazard lights
will not flash. If an open door or tailgate is causing the
mislock, the starter motor is disabled. The alarm will
sound if ignition is turned to start position. If an open
bonnet [hood] is causing the mislock the starter motor
is disabled. The alarm will arm the volumetric part of
the system. If the door tailgate or bonnet [hood] is
subsequently closed, after a 5 second delay, the
doors will unlock and immediately lock and the system
will fully arm.
Handset transmitter
The handset LED will give one short flash when
button is pressed momentarily.
If button is held down the LED will light again after 2
seconds for 2 seconds, and extinguish until button is
released and repressed. The handset contains unique
information distinguishing it from other transmitters. It
also contains a set of 'random' rolling codes
programmed into the ECU before leaving the factory.
Each time the handset is pressed a different code is
transmitted to the ECU.
If handset is operated more than four times outside
the vehicle range (6 metres) or power supply is
removed, it will be necessary to re-sychronise handset
and the ECU by pressing the handset three times
within range and within 5 seconds.
NOTE: If both handsets are lost or
damaged when system is armed it will be
necessary to fit a new ECU with two
matching handsets.
Handset batteries
If handset LED flashes continuously when button is
pressed, the batteries need replacing. The hazard
lights will flash one 3 second pulse, instead of three
times upon arming vehicle.
Power up mode
The alarm system always remembers the state it was
left in when power was removed. If the alarm powers
up in an armed state and is subsequently triggered it
will give a warning that it will fully trigger unless
disarmed. This warning consists of short horn pulses
every two seconds for 15 seconds.
New born mode
When the ECU is first produced, it will be in its 'new
born' mode. In this mode it will respond to any remote
of the right frequency. This mode will be cancelled
when the ECU has received ten valid handset signals
without power interruption.
Engine cranking
It is only possible to crank the engine when ignition is
ON and alarm disabled.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION DETECTION COMPONENTS
Switches
Perimetric protection for the vehicle is provided by
ECU inputs connected to the following:
Key switches (including starter)
Sill buttons
Bonnet switch
Door switches
Ultrasonic sensor
The ultrasonic sensor is located on the interior light
switch panel and triggers the alarm if movement is
detected.
WARNING INDICATORS
Battery backed-up sounder
The battery backed-up sounder is located in the
engine compartment and provides an audible warning
whenever the alarm is triggered.
NOTE: Disconnecting the vehicle battery
will result in the alarm sounding if the
correct procedure has not been followed.
See Repair, Battery.
Engine immobilisation warning light (EIWL)
The engine immobilisation warning light is located in
the instrument pack and provides a visual indication
that the engine is immobilised.
Anti-theft alarm indicator light
The anti-theft alarm indicator light is located in the
instrument pack and provides a visual indication of the
alarm status.
Inertia switch and central door locking
As a safety feature, the alarm system is designed to
recognise the inertia switch and via the ECU, unlock
the doors in the event of a collision.
NOTE: This feature only applies when the
starter switch is in the on position.ANTI-THEFT ALARM OPERATION (96 MODELS)
Full arming and immobilisation
Locking the vehicle using the handset immobilises the
engine and initializes both volumetric and perimetric
protection, providing:
1.After a lock signal has been received, a period of
15 seconds has elapsed during which no
movement is detected inside the vehicle;
2.No door or bonnet is open.
NOTE: If either of the above conditions are
not satisfied, the alarm will only be
partially armed. This is a mislock condition
which will be made apparent by a delay of 10
seconds before the anti-theft alarm indicator
begins to flash.
Disarming the alarm
NOTE: ALWAYS disarm the alarm using
the handset.
Unlocking with the key will not disarm the alarm or
mobilise the vehicle. If the handset fails to unlock the
vehicle
See Repair, Handset.
Partial arming and immobilisation
The alarm will be partially armed and the engine
immobilised if the vehicle is locked with the handset or
key, if:
1.After a lock signal has been received, a period of
15 seconds has elapsed during which movement
is detected inside the vehicle;
2.A door or bonnet is open.
NOTE: This is a mislock condition which
will be made apparent by a delay of 10
seconds before the anti-theft alarm
indicator begins to flash. Subsequent closure of
the offending aperture will cause the alarm to
attempt full arming as previously described.
Immobilisation
The vehicle will be automatically immobilised
whenever any of the following conditions occur:
1.The vehicle is locked using the handset.
2.The vehicle is locked using the key.
3.Thirty seconds after the starter switch has been
turned off AND the driver's door opened.
4.Five minutes after the starter switch is turned off
or the alarm disarmed.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Mobilisation
The vehicle can be mobilised using any one of the
following processes:
1.Placing the handset in close proximity to the
starter switch with the starter switch turned on
(normally achieved by placing the key in the
starter switch, providing the key and handset are
attached).
NOTE: Under normal circumstances the
remobilisation of the vehicle will not be
apparent.
2.Pressing unlock button on handset.
3.Pressing lock button on handset with starter
switch turned on.
4.Entry of EKA code using the key.
NOTE: Any attempt to start the vehicle
using the key (detached from the handset)
will be unsuccessful. Use one of the above
methods.
See Warning indicators.
Volumetric protection
When the vehicle is locked using the handset both
perimetric and volumetric protection are activated
providing there is no mislock condition.
Perimetric protection
The vehicle is always perimetrically protected when
the alarm is armed using the handset. Perimetric
protection only, can be achieved if the vehicle is
locked using the key.
NOTE: The handset should ALWAYS be
used for unlocking the vehicle. If the
handset fails to unlock the vehicle
See
Repair, Handset.
Battery backed-up sounder (BBUS)
The sounder provides audible indication of alarm
status including:
Anti-theft warnings;
Confirmation of access to built-in test.
NOTE: Disconnecting the vehicle battery
will result in the alarm sounding if the
correct procedure has not been followed.
See Repair, Battery.
Alarm horn
The horn provides audible indication (as BBUS) of
alarm status.
NOTE: Disconnecting the vehicle battery
will have no effect on the horn.
Engine immobilisation warning light (EIWL)
NOTE: Under normal circumstances the
light will not illuminate.
The light will only illuminate (after 2 seconds) if the
handset is detached from the key (or the handset
fails) and an attempt is made to start the vehicle.
Anti-theft alarm indicator light
The light flashes to indicate the alarm status.
If the alarm system is fully armed, the light will flash
rapidly for 10 seconds and then settle to the slow
(anti-theft deterrent) flash.
If the alarm system is perimetrically armed, the light
will intermittently flash rapidly for 10 seconds and then
settle to the slow (anti-theft deterrent) flash.
If the alarm system is partially armed, the light will
NOT emit the slow flash until 10 seconds after arming
(to allow the cause to be investigated).
If the vehicle has been left unlocked, providing the
driver's door is closed, the light will flash slowly
indicating immobilisation. If the driver's door is open,
the light will remain illuminated.
Emergency key access (EKA)
The emergency key access code should be entered in
accordance with the instructions in the Owner's
Handbook.
