Standard and programmable car alarm functions

Car alarms have many functions, the main ones of which include:

• The vehicle coordinates are determined thanks to the presence of a GPS-GLONASS telematics module.
• This device is protected from various code grabbers thanks to the presence of an interactive control code that has individual encryption keys.
• Despite the presence of a large amount of urban radio interference, the car alarm works perfectly. This provides a unique narrowband transceiver.
• The fastest possible response to the processes of jacking and evacuation of the vehicle is achieved thanks to the presence of a 3D shock and tilt sensor in the device.
• Full operation of the car alarm is ensured in the temperature range from -50 to +85 degrees. This is ensured by the high quality of the components of this device.
• The a64 car alarm is battery operated. Thanks to the record energy efficiency of this device, the battery charge can be maintained for 60 days.
• During the production of car alarms, patented advanced technologies and software solutions are used, which significantly improves the quality of its work.

Key Features

Features specific to the Starline A62 alarm system:

1. The presence of eight security zones operating independently from each other.
2. Possibility of activating the protection mode both using the communicator and using the Valet service key.
3. Passive blocking mode of the power unit.
4. Availability of a personal password. The PIN code can be used to unlock the system, activate the security mode and control basic functions.
5. Anti-hijack or anti-robbery option. The function is intelligent and is designed to prevent car theft in the event of a violent seizure of the car. The driver, after his car has been selected, can activate the function. After some time (usually 1 minute, but the interval can be programmed) after activation occurs. The time interval is necessary so that the attacker can drive the car away from the car owner to a safe distance.
6. The presence of a warning zone, as well as the ability to completely deactivate the sensitivity controller when the protection mode is turned on.
7. Option for separate opening of door locks.
8. Function of bypassing non-working security zones. If, when the protection mode is activated, the alarm has performed diagnostics and detected non-working zones, they will be automatically disabled.
9. Availability of a memory unit built into the electronic module. It stores information about car alarm alarms with identification of the affected zone. Also, the presence of memory allows you to remember the alarm status. If the battery is disconnected, then after turning it on again, the alarm will return to the state in which it was before this event.
10. Using an anti-theft installation, the consumer can implement two locks of the power unit. This will provide additional engine protection. The signaling itself has a built-in universal lock. To turn it on, the consumer does not need to use additional relays. There is also one external blocking of the internal combustion engine.
11. Availability of an input for connecting an additional sensitivity controller.
12. Availability of an output for connecting a silent alarm signal. Information about alarm activation will be sent to the user's communicator. Instead of an alarm signal, lights may simply go off.
13. Presence of panic mode. Activating it will scare strangers away from the car. When the mode is turned on, alarm signals will start working, and the light alarm will also be activated.
14. The ability to automatically close or open door locks when the internal combustion engine is running or switched off.

The Starline A62 alarm system does not have the security option with the engine running.

Separately, the service capabilities of the signaling should be highlighted:

1. The presence of two additional channels, with which you can implement various service functions.
2. To control the central locking of the car, a special power relay is used, designed for a current of up to 10 amperes.
3. Possibility of implementing the Comfort function. Enabling it will ensure automatic closing of the electric sunroof, as well as the windows, when the protection mode is activated.
4. There is an option to delay the light signal after closing the door locks. The delay can be set to 5, 35 or 60 seconds.
5. Option to search for a car in the parking lot. If the driver forgets where he left the car, he can turn on this function. As a result, the alarm lights will begin to blink, which will allow you to find the car.
6. Silent activation of the protection mode.
7. Availability of an automatic signaling algorithm.
8. The consumer has the opportunity to choose the duration of the signals sent to the central locking.
9. Option to call the car owner from the salon. To do this, use the button located on the transceiver module.

Functions

The alarm has the following functions:

• Automatic engine start. To implement this function, the connection of auxiliary modules is required. The option can be used on vehicles with diesel or gasoline engines. The function is implemented automatically or launched upon a user command.
• Establishing the location of the vehicle. The function is auxiliary; to implement it, a GSM module is installed. It allows you to connect to the desired connector with the least risk of damage to the elements of the on-board network.
• Interior heater control. The option is available in vehicles with a diesel engine.
• Changing the position of the main seat. The function is enabled on vehicles equipped with an electronic control system. To use this option, use separate channels.
• Automatic start of low beam. The option is configured when you shift the handbrake and press the brake pedal.
• Synchronization of the anti-theft system with a smartphone. Implemented when connecting an auxiliary GSM module. The device transmits information about the alarm status to the phone screen.
• Economical energy consumption. When using a car alarm, the battery charge is retained for 2 months.
• Application of power keys. Helps to switch the head unit to silent mode. The option is also necessary to provide short circuit protection for the terminals. Power keys are a Starline development that reduces the risk of ignition.
• Slave mode. Allows the car owner to control the anti-theft system using the lock remote control. Modules are synchronized in advance.
• Possibility of introducing auxiliary protective equipment. For this purpose, position change sensors are connected. There are separate terminals for installing these modules in the head unit.
• Deactivating the power module. For this purpose, starting relays and electronic devices are used, connected separately.
• Protecting a car with the engine running. The key can be removed from the ignition switch.
• "Anti-robbery." If the vehicle is subject to unauthorized entry, the engine is blocked. Triggering of sensors or a user command allows you to block the motor. In this case, the car stops moving. The stop is carried out no later than a minute later, so the car thieves do not have time to drive a long distance.
• Automatic monitoring of sensor status. If a malfunction is detected, the head unit turns off the sensor, sending a signal to the pager.
• Saving data about triggered alarms with the ability to constantly study them.
• Deactivation of the regulator at a distance when the vehicle protection is installed. Only the warning parts of the sensors can be turned off.
• Change the volume of the sound signal. There is a vibration alert.
• Deactivating key fob keys.

Advantages and disadvantages

The advantages of the device include:

• uninterrupted operation of car alarms in any conditions (insensitive to interference occurring in cities);
• extended operating range of communicators (equipment suppliers deliberately overestimate the figure stated in the instructions, which in reality turns out to be lower; the operating range of Starline devices does not differ from that specified by the developer);
• ease of installation and use (the instructions are provided with diagrams that allow you to correctly connect all the elements);
• an extended set of functions at a fairly low price;
• increased strength of the key fob body (the pager is not damaged by mechanical stress).

Users cite the following disadvantages:

• quick failure of the pager (the key fob becomes unusable due to the buttons sticking);
• difficulty activating the Slave mode (if the option is enabled, the anti-theft system may not work correctly).

Drivers claim that this problem can be dealt with simply by resetting the key fob settings. You can do this using these instructions:

1. Put the car on the parking brake and turn on the ignition.
2. Press the valet button on the Starline alarm system 10 times.
3. Now you need to wait for the system to reboot, after which 2 beeps will sound.
4. Then you should confirm the reset by pressing button 1, then you will see all dimensions blinking 5 times. Now the key fob settings will be reset to factory settings.

If you carefully studied the article, then now you can independently configure autostart on your Starline alarm system. We wish you success!

User manual

Full use of all options is allowed only after binding the key fob.

Guide to linking the keychain:

1. Turn off the ignition with the key in the Off position. With the system turned off, click on the service button seven times, then set the key in the lock to the ACC position. The siren speaker will play seven beeps, this indicates successful entry into the binding mode.
2. Simultaneously click on the first and second pager keys. The siren speaker will play one sound pulse, and one melodic signal will be played by the remote control beepper.
3. The previous paragraph is repeated for programming each communicator. The time interval between binding each subsequent remote control should be no more than five seconds.
4. When the communicators are paired, you need to exit the programming mode. To do this, turn off the ignition. The car's lights should blink three times.

How to disable?

If you were able to turn on the security, but cannot turn it off using the key fob, you can disable the security mode using the service button. For emergency shutdown, the consumer must know the password.

Procedure for turning off the alarm:

1. The door lock is opened with a key, the alarm siren will start playing alarm pulses. If the protective mode was activated without using the communicator, the vehicle's lights will blink four times.
2. Activate the ignition by inserting the key into the lock and turning it to the ACC position. Click on the service key several times. The number of presses must correspond to the first digit of the code. If it is 8, then the key is pressed eight times. When using a unique password, the alarm will disable the protective mode and the lights will blink twice. If the password is two-digit, then after entering the first digit the ignition is turned off.
3. The ignition is turned on again. The second digit of the password is entered into the service key. If the code was entered correctly, the protective function will be deactivated and the lights will blink twice. If a three-digit password is used, the ignition is turned off.
4. The key is again set to the ACC position, and the third digit of the password is entered.

Malfunctions that may require emergency shutdown of the alarm are described in the Falcrums channel video.

Is there auto start?

Initially, the Starline A64 alarm system does not have the option of automatic engine start. But it can be implemented by installing an additional special module from Starline M21 or M31.

Installation of these devices can lead to the following consequences:

1. Starting the power unit will only be possible using a smartphone application, as well as by calling and sending messages. Using a standard communicator will not allow you to configure this function.
2. There may be nuances regarding engine blocking. The consumer may have to block the ignition zone with the M21 or M31 module. The same goes for restoring blocked electrical circuits. It is almost impossible to perform the correct setup yourself; you will have to contact qualified installers.
3. Locks performed by the Starline A64 anti-theft complex will be canceled using the TX cable, which is blue. It is possible that the firmware of the M31 module and the A64 microprocessor unit will be different. As a result, you can try to solve the problem by updating the software. However, this procedure may be meaningless due to hardware incompatibility.

Alarm Starline autostart from key fob

Remote autostart starline

Before learning how to perform starline remote autostart, it is important to study some features. In order for you to be able to enable autostart from the key fob, it is important to meet the following conditions:

• The first step is to put the car on the parking brake.
• Turn the key in the ignition switch, and then remove the key (the engine must be turned off).
• Next, move the gearbox lever to the neutral position.
• Finally, it is worth closing all the doors tightly, as well as the trunk and hood.

Only if all the above conditions are met, then only in this case the security alarm will allow you to set it to autostart.

Switching to security mode with auto-start is also carried out in a special way:

1. Park and then put the car on the handbrake.
2. Move the gearbox selector to neutral.

3. Hold down button 1 on the key fob for 3 seconds, after which a ringing melody will sound.
4. Remove the key from the ignition.
5. Get out of the car (check that the doors are closed tightly). If you did everything correctly, the alarm will automatically turn off the engine, after which it will switch the alarm to security mode.

To perform a car factory remotely there are 2 ways:

1. Press button 1 for exactly 3 seconds, and then press button 3 until the signal appears.
2. Select the “start” icon, and then press button 2 once.

If the engine starts, you will see the symbol “exhaust gases” on the screen. The car will warm up for the time that you previously set in the settings. 1 minute before turning off the engine, the code “r01” will appear on the display. If the time is up, this code will change to “r00”.

Auto start on alarm clock

First of all, check the time of the on-board computer, it should be as accurate as possible. To enable auto start on an alarm clock, you must follow all the steps according to the instructions:

1. First, enable the option on the keychain with the bell icon.
2. Having set the desired time for the alarm, press keys 3 and 1 in turn, confirm your choice on the dial icon. If autostart is configured correctly, the car will blink its side lights.

When the function is turned on, the picture of the bell and dial will change on the display, and a long melody will also be heard.

Auto start by timer

Activation of this option is done as follows:

1. Move the cursor over the hourglass, then confirm your choice by successively pressing buttons 3 and 1.
2. Set the desired time, and then confirm the activation of the function in the same way.

If you decide to disable the enabled engine start by timer, then this is very simple - press button 2 twice quickly. The previous timer display will disappear from the display, and the key fob will also notify you with a signal that the timer has been turned off.

Autostart based on temperature indicators

This option is one of the most useful; sensors monitor the ambient temperature, and when the desired temperature is reached, the engine starts. You can activate the option using these instructions:

1. Move the cursor to the “thermometer” icon, briefly press button 1, then you will see a flash of the dimensions and a sound signal on the key fob. At the same moment, the current outside temperature should be displayed for 5 seconds.
2. Quickly press button 1 to set the required temperature parameters.
3. Long-pressing button 1 activates the automatic start mode based on temperature.

The option is deactivated using the same method as described above, only in our case the pointer now needs to be placed on the “thermometer” icon.

How to install?

Installation Guide:

1. The microprocessor module is mounted inside the car. It is not allowed to be installed in the luggage compartment or under the hood. It is advisable to choose a hidden place for installation. For example, behind the control panel or in the free space behind the center console.
2. Depending on the chosen installation location, the plastic lining around the steering wheel or dashboard is dismantled. There is a temperature controller inside the microprocessor unit, so the device must be installed away from heat sources. If the unit may be exposed to moisture at the installation site, it must be installed with the connector facing down to prevent liquid from getting inside. Secure the device with screws or ties to prevent it from vibrating.
3. The antenna module is fixed on the inner surface of the windshield (it must first be washed and degreased). There should be metal parts of the body no closer than 5 cm from the transceiver, this will ensure the best range of the communicator. Inside the antenna module housing there is a tilt and shock controller. To prevent the controller from operating without reason, it should not be placed on the plastic lining in the passenger compartment.
4. An LED indicator is installed on the dashboard or center console. Its installation must be done so that when blinking the light bulb is visible from the street.
5. A siren is being installed in the engine compartment. It should not be installed near the cylinder block or sources of moisture. The horn of the device is located downwards, this will prevent the accumulation of moisture inside. Choose a place for installation so that there is no access to the siren and its electrical circuits from under the bottom of the car. If you purchased a siren with a built-in battery (autonomous), then during installation you must ensure unobstructed access to its lock.
6. The service button is mounted in the cabin. It is advisable to hide it; to do this, the key can be disguised as one of the bundles with standard wiring.
7. After installing all the components, the electrical lines are laid under the plastic upholstery. When laying, please note that electrical circuits should be placed as far as possible from possible sources of interference. These include high-voltage cables, ignition coils, electronic devices, etc. After installation, wires should not come into contact with moving structural elements.

Advantages and disadvantages

Advantages of Starline A64 anti-theft systems:

1. System reliability. With proper connection and configuration of all elements, the consumer receives a complete complex that can provide maximum protection for the machine.
2. High operating radius of the communicator. Even if there is interference in the area, the range of operation of the pager will be quite large.
3. Ease of installation and configuration. In the technical manual, the manufacturer described all the nuances regarding the installation of signaling elements and setting parameters. An inexperienced consumer, taking into account all the advice, will be able to independently install and configure the system.
4. Multifunctionality. The alarm system has many useful security and service options.

1. Communicator. Despite the shock-resistant case, according to reviews, the control buttons on it often fail. You will have to repair and replace the keys.
2. It may be difficult to configure the alarm if the Slave mode is used.

Possible malfunctions and ways to eliminate them

The need to repair the Starline A64 alarm system may arise due to the following malfunctions:

1. The system has stopped responding to commands sent by the user. To fix the problem, you must first check the battery in the pager and replace it if necessary. You should disassemble the communicator and identify the failed elements - damaged contacts and buttons need to be re-soldered.
2. The system does not perform functions correctly. The problem may be due to the pager not working properly due to moisture getting on it. To fix the problem, you need to disassemble the remote control, remove the board from it and dry it (do not use a stove, hair dryer or battery). It is recommended to remove any remaining moisture using a dry cloth. It would be useful to clean the circuit from dirt and dust.
3. The alarm responds to commands, but the range of the pager has significantly decreased. If the problem is not related to low batteries, then most likely it is due to interference in the area. They can come from manufacturing enterprises and transformer substations. To disable the protection mode, you need to get as close as possible to the transceiver installed in the car.
4. Starline A64 does not lock all door locks. If the limit switches themselves are working properly, then the user should “ring” the wiring to detect defects with a multimeter or other tester. Damaged electrical circuits must be replaced, as well as cables on which the insulation has worn out, as this may cause current leakage. When laying new wires, it is recommended to additionally wrap them with electrical tape to ensure their higher reliability and prevent rapid wear.
5. The anti-theft system does not function correctly and automatically disables and activates the security system. Most often, the cause of the malfunction is related to the operation of the control unit. The device's firmware may have crashed; to fix the problem, you will need to reconfigure the software using a computer. Microprocessor failure is often caused by regular exposure to vibrations during movement, as well as moisture.
