Description and technical specifications

You can use Jaguar “alarms” of the EZ and TEZ lines on cars with an automatic transmission or a manual one. All modern models of security systems allow operation in alert mode. This means that the user can learn about the vehicle’s security status from the indicators on the key fob display. Jaguar anti-theft systems allow you to start the engine remotely, by command from the remote control or at a certain time configured by the user.

The service manuals for alarms indicate the following technical characteristics:

  • radio frequency channels of 433.92 or 868 MHz are used to transmit signals between the control unit and the communicator;
  • the range of action of the control panel when sending pulses is 600-1200 meters;
  • operating range of the additional key fob is 15 m;
  • protection of all power lines that need to be installed and connected to the microprocessor is carried out by safety devices of 7.5-30 A;
  • the choice of rating depends on the type of equipment being protected and is indicated in the technical manual;
  • when the security mode is on, the alarm current consumption should be no more than 15 mA;
  • activation of the protection function is possible with a delay of 5, 30 or 45 seconds after sending the signal;
  • vehicle security is provided through power outputs of the ignition system, door limit switches, hood, and additional controllers;
  • the total number of communicators that can be connected and configured to work with alarm systems is 3-4 pcs. depending on the model;

Basic signaling capabilities

List of features and functions of Jaguar anti-theft systems:

  1. Option to turn on the security mode with or without sound and light accompanying signals. In the latter case, this is a silent protection function.
  2. Protection of a vehicle from robbery, “Anti-robbery” option. The car's engine will automatically shut down during specific events. For example, if the owner is forced out of the car, the security system will determine this by signals from the controllers on the handbrake or brake pedal. The engine is blocked after a certain time, when the thief drives to a safe distance for the car owner.
  3. Possibility of selecting alarm signals.
  4. Availability of seven independent security zones. We are talking about all the car doors, trunk, hood and ignition system.
  5. Using two-stage security disabling.
  6. The presence of a driver warning function about unlocked locks.
  7. Possibility of connecting the steering signal to the siren of the anti-theft system.
  8. Automatic engine start upon command from the remote control, at a specified time or temperature. When the level of the latter drops to a critical level set by the user, the power unit is started remotely. Allowing the engine to automatically turn on and warm up during the night will help prevent it from freezing in the morning.
  9. The presence of non-volatile memory of the control unit about events recorded by the alarm. If the microprocessor module is disconnected from the power supply, when it is further connected, information about the operations will remain.
  10. Possibility of connecting additional digital relays to block the engine.
  11. Indication of the power source discharge in the main remote control, as well as the voltage level in the vehicle’s on-board network. All information is displayed on the communicator screen.
  12. Use dynamic encoding to protect signals.
  13. Availability of energy saving mode. This helps prevent your device's battery from draining quickly.
  14. Possibility of online programming of options.
  15. The presence of a button lock function on the communicator.
  16. Using a personal password to emergency disable the anti-theft system. The PIN code can be used to enter the alarm service mode.
  17. Possibility of additional connection to the GPS tracker anti-theft system. This will allow you to determine the location of the vehicle.
  18. Option to monitor the start of the power unit using signals coming from the tachometer or generator device.
  19. Possibility of turning on the protection mode on a car with the engine running.
  20. Availability of the “Hands Free” option. This function allows you to automatically turn the vehicle security on and off if the car owner moves away or approaches the car.
  21. Ability to select the duration and number of door lock control signals.
  22. The presence of a “Turbo timer” mode, which allows you to prevent rapid wear of engine structural elements. The turbine cooling time is user adjustable. The essence of its action is that after the ignition is turned off, the engine continues to idle for some time.
  23. Function of automatic return to security mode if the alarm is accidentally turned off.
  24. Warning the user with light signals about unlocked door locks.

User Alexander Bobrov, in his video review, briefly spoke about the capabilities and features of the Jaguar alarm using the example of the EZ-Four model.

Advantages and disadvantages

Main advantages:

  • affordable price;
  • extensive functionality;
  • effective operation of the autostart option regardless of weather conditions.

Flaws:

  1. Using dynamic code. Today this type of encoding is not relevant. Manufacturers of anti-theft systems use interactive signal coding as a more reliable protection option. It will be easier for the hijacker to “break” the “dynamics”.
  2. The communicator comes in a weak case. The device may fail even with a slight fall, and constant use will lead to the buttons on the remote control sticking.

Equipment

The Jaguar package includes one limit switch, the remaining switches will have to be purchased separately.

Components included in the alarm kit:

  1. The microprocessor module is the main device of the car alarm.
  2. User's Guide to the management, use and maintenance of the alarm. If you carefully read the service manual, you can learn about additional useful functions.
  3. The main console is equipped with a screen and has a two-way communication function.
  4. Spare remote control. It has a shorter range and is not equipped with a display.
  5. Transceiver equipped with a key to call the owner of the car. This device is equipped with a built-in temperature controller that allows you to measure its value inside the car. The transceiver comes with a wire and connector for connection.
  6. Six-tone siren.
  7. The impact controller belongs to the two-level class.
  8. A diode light bulb that functions as a status indicator.
  9. One limit switch for hood mounting.
  10. A set of connectors and wires for connecting the signaling system.
  11. Two batteries for installation in the main and spare transmitter. They differ in type from each other, so you won’t be able to confuse them during installation.
  12. Two stickers - one with the Jaguar logo, the second is used to fix the antenna module.
  13. Warranty card.

How to install?

In accordance with the instructions for using the Jaguar alarm system with auto start, the installation of the anti-theft system is carried out on a car with the battery disconnected. To do this, the user must first open the hood and disconnect the negative terminal from the clamp.

Installation rules

Installation Guide:

  1. Before performing a task, the windows of the car are lowered. This will allow the user not to be locked in the car if the alarm is accidentally closed.
  2. We recommend connecting all Jaguar elements without installing them on the car to check their functionality. The system is connected directly to the battery for testing.
  3. The alarm control unit is being hidden mounted. It is recommended to place it behind the instrument panel to ensure a minimum length of wires. The unit can be installed behind the glove box or in the free space behind the car radio. The module should be placed on a flat surface with the connector facing down to prevent moisture from getting inside through the wires. To fix the device, double-sided tape, self-tapping screws or plastic ties are used, if the surface design allows.
  4. The siren is being installed in the engine compartment. Installation should be carried out in a hidden place so that the horn of the device faces down. The wires from the siren should not hang down so that an attacker cannot gain access to them from under the bottom of the car. Do not place the device near sources of moisture or high temperatures as this may cause the device to melt.
  5. A limit switch is installed on the hood. It must be placed in a place where there is no accumulation of moisture. When the hood is closed, there should be no access to the device. If you purchased additional “limit switches” for the doors and trunk, then they also need to be installed. To do this you will have to remove the plastic lining.
  6. A transceiver module is installed on the inner surface of the windshield or rear window. Do not install the device near metal parts or electronic devices as this will reduce the range. Double-sided tape or glue is used to fix the antenna module.
  7. The sensitivity sensor is installed in the central part of the vehicle. It can be placed on an iron partition that separates the car interior from the engine compartment. The device must be installed so that the user has access to its adjustment elements.
  8. The service button is installed in a hidden manner, but in such a way that the consumer can reach it when sitting in the driver’s seat. You can install the device under the instrument cluster and hide it in one of the wiring harnesses. To disguise the button, you can wrap it with electrical tape of the standard color.
  9. Laying of electrical circuits is carried out under the decorative cladding of the vehicle. Wires should not be laid in places where there are moving mechanisms. In addition, it is not recommended to lay cables near electronic devices and equipment. If it is necessary to extend conductors, all joints during soldering must be located in the vehicle interior. This will prevent them from oxidizing.

When should you buy a Jaguar?

Here we will talk about one of the signaling models - this is the Jaguar EZ-Beta V2. Distributors have such equipment available at prices below 100 USD. It is recommended for purchase by all beginners and those who install alarm systems themselves. But if you need to implement a connection with autostart, make sure that there is no “15/2” contact in the ignition switch, which switches the current in the IGN2 circuit. When the key is in the START position, the test lamp on this contact does not indicate the presence of a “positive” potential.


Electrical circuits of the ignition switch

It is even more impossible to implement autostart if three ignition circuits are used (IGN1-IGN3). Unfortunately, the signaling devices of this model do not emulate contact “15/2” or “15/3”. Which is typical for almost all Jaguar alarms, if their cost does not exceed 150 USD. Installation on all domestic cars will be acceptable, but on foreign cars you need to check whether the IGN2 or IGN3 circuit is used.

User manual

You can use the alarm after installing power supplies in the communicators. To do this, remove the back cover of the remote control and install the batteries taking into account the polarity.

Clarification for vehicles with manual transmission

You need to understand that the car needs to be prepared before starting the engine using autostart. However, we are talking only about cars with a manual transmission. And here's what the instructions say about this:

  1. During half-cooking, the handbrake is first engaged. The engine must be running.
  2. You need to remove the key from the lock - the engine should not stall;
  3. In half a minute you need to leave the salon and close the doors.

When the last door is closed, the security mode can be turned on. This is exactly how the TEZ B system should be used.


This is how a car is prepared for autostart

An alarm from another brand, such as Starline, may work differently: between steps 1 and 2, you press a button. Jaguar systems do not provide such a method. By the way, the sequence discussed above is also used when turning on the turbo timer: if it is not followed, the engine will stall in step 2. The turbo timer option must also be enabled in the settings.

Possible faults

Malfunctions that can occur in the operation of Jaguar anti-theft systems:

  1. The battery in the communicator is low. Such a malfunction will lead to a deterioration in the range of the alarm, as well as poor operation of functions. The user must check the operation of the power supply and replace it if necessary.
  2. Communicator failure. If the device stops working as a result of a fall or mechanical damage, it will need to be disassembled and diagnosed. Damaged contacts and buttons can be re-soldered, but the procedure for changing the firmware is difficult to perform on your own. If the problem is the effect of moisture on the device, then you need to remove its board and dry it in a warm place. It is not allowed to use a stove or a household hair dryer to remove condensation.
  3. Damage to wires. The areas of electrical circuits located in the protective corrugations between the doors and the body are most susceptible to wear. To search for damaged cables, you will need a tester; it can be used to ring power lines. The wires must be replaced with products with the same cross-section. For better protection, the cable can be wrapped with electrical tape.
  4. Failure of limit switches. For this reason, the system may not close all doors. Most often, the contact on the wire through which the sensors are connected to the on-board network wears out. They may oxidize, then to solve the problem you will need to clean the pads.
  5. Incorrect installation of the transceiver. Because of this, the signal quality will be poor. To fix the problem, the antenna module must be moved to another location.
  6. Control unit malfunction. Software problems should be resolved by specialists, as firmware changes may be required. If the microprocessor module fails due to exposure to moisture, as is the case with the remote control, you need to remove the board from it and dry it. The contacts on the unit connector may be oxidized or clogged. To fix the problem, you will need to clean the pad.

Functions

The alarm system discussed in this review has the following functionality:

  • silent activation of protective functions;
  • “Anti-robbery” mode (the engine automatically stops in the event of a robbery on the vehicle, the blocking is activated a few seconds after an unauthorized start of the engine);
  • use of an individual code to disable security functions;
  • connecting the standard horn to the anti-theft system;
  • remote engine start by issuing a command from the key fob or pre-setting parameters;
  • saving user settings in non-volatile memory (when dismantling and then connecting the main unit, the selected settings are not lost);
  • the possibility of introducing additional devices to block the power unit;
  • indication of the charge of the remote control batteries;
  • dynamic coding of sent signals;
  • energy-saving mode that prevents the batteries in the control panel from discharging;
  • locking key fob buttons;
  • the ability to connect a GPS module used to determine the vehicle’s coordinates;
  • assessment of the condition of the power unit, carried out by analyzing signals coming from the generator or tachometer;
  • activation of the security mode when the engine is on;
  • “Hands-free” (the option is aimed at automatically activating and disabling protection when the user approaches or moves away);
  • remote control of door locks;
  • turbo timer (the ability to select the turbine cooling time; when this function is turned on, the engine idles for some time);
  • automatic resumption of security after an unplanned shutdown;
  • door closing control.

Advantages and disadvantages

The anti-theft system has the following positive qualities:

  • low price;
  • expanded set of functions;
  • correct operation of autostart at any temperature.

Negative characteristics of Jaguar car alarms include:

  • insufficiently efficient signal coding method;
  • poor build quality of the key fob (over time, the buttons begin to fail).

Advantages of Jaguar alarms:

  1. Rich functionality. In their reviews, consumers note that Jaguar alarms have many useful options that make it easier to control not only the system itself, but also other components of the car.
  2. Affordable price. You can buy an alarm system with auto start at a price of 5 thousand rubles and more. The cost will depend on additional features.

The disadvantages include the weak body of the key fob. If dropped regularly, the device quickly breaks down, and over time its buttons begin to sink. To prevent damage to the communicator, you can install it in a case. But it won’t help with buttons sticking.
