Advantages and disadvantages

How to install an alarm?

Installation is done like this:

1. The battery turns off. This is required to deactivate the voltage in the on-board network. Otherwise, during installation, you may accidentally short the contacts on one of the devices to ground, which will lead to breakdown. To disconnect voltage from the battery, disconnect the cables with terminals.
2. Install the processor module in the cabin. Choose a location for installation so that the device is inaccessible to a criminal if the car is broken into. It is best to install the device behind the control panel; this place is the most difficult to access, and you will also have to disassemble the center console. Remove the steering wheel and dashboard trim, disconnect the plugs with wires from the device. Determine a free space behind the dashboard and install the unit in it. To eliminate the negative impact of vibrations on the device while driving, the module can be wrapped with foam rubber.
3. At the next stage, a siren is installed; it must be placed under the hood. Choose a location that will be least exposed to moisture and high temperatures. Installation of the device near the cylinder block is not allowed; subsequently the siren will melt and will not be able to perform its functions.
4. The shock sensor is mounted in the passenger compartment. It cannot be placed under the bottom; the controller will quickly fail as a result of exposure to dirt and moisture. Install the sensor in the center of the body, this will allow it to effectively detect impacts on the car from all sides. You can place the device on the partition that separates the engine compartment and the interior.
5. Install the antenna on the inside of the windshield. You can mount the transceiver under glass on the dashboard, but it is advisable that this element be located as high as possible in the cabin. This will ensure efficient reception and transmission of signals. Please note that the quality of the pulses is affected by the presence of metal objects near the antenna. It is advisable that they be located no closer than 4 cm from the device.
6. Install the limit switch to the hood. After installation, route the connection cable to the switch into the car interior.
7. Install the service key. The Valet button must be disguised, since it can be used to disable Sherkhan Logicar 1. You can hide the key in a bundle with standard wiring.

How to use the alarm

The attached instruction manual consists of sections:

• description of the kit and technical capabilities;
• communicator design;
• how to use the alarm (control of basic and additional functions);
• recording remote controls into memory and parameter programming algorithms.

Before using the equipment, you should study the documentation and then become familiar with the design of the remote control. If the control is incorrect, malfunctions and blocking of the motor may occur.

Designations of buttons and symbols on the key fob

Functions

The Mobiscar system has a function that can help the driver avoid an accident. In the event of sudden braking, the vehicle's hazard warning lights will turn on automatically. Thanks to this, the driver of a vehicle moving behind will be able to detect the danger in time and take all necessary measures to avoid a collision. The hazard warning lights will turn on if you decelerate by more than 20 km/h in 1 second.

A car with a Scher-Khan Mobicar 1 alarm system is reliably protected from hacking due to an encoding system with personal confirmation of commands. The system is based on the AES-128 encryption standard.

The 868 MHz frequency is not heavily loaded, due to which the signal is less distorted and travels over long distances.

Thanks to the support of multiple radio bands, the system always selects the least loaded channel for data transmission between the key fob and the central unit. On the key fob screen you can see a simple and understandable menu that allows you to quickly make the necessary settings remotely.

Advantages and disadvantages

The advantages of this model include a long warranty period (5 years), a relatively low price and an easy-to-use keychain. According to reviews, the alarm has the advantage of low energy consumption, which has a positive effect on the battery life in the winter. A useful function is considered to be automatic engine start based on time or thermometer readings. There is an option to make it easier to find a car in the parking lot. The built-in multichannel digital bus adapter supports all data transmission formats.

The alarm system quickly responds to shocks, tilts and movements, immediately sending alerts to the key fob. The sensitivity level is adjusted remotely. Car owners note that the key fob picks up a signal over a long distance (several kilometers).

The display shows useful information such as the interior temperature and the number of open doors. The disadvantages of the key fob include inconvenient buttons with insufficient movement.

Basic faults

Errors and problems that the user may encounter:

1. Communicator failure. Failure to operate the pager may be due to low power supplies, so when the first problems appear in transmitting commands, check the battery. If it sits down, it needs to be changed. Open the back cover and replace the power supply, observing the polarity. If the problem is mechanical damage to the communicator or exposure to moisture, you need to disassemble the case and assess the condition of the board. Damaged components such as capacitors and contacts must be replaced and re-soldered, and contact elements must be cleaned in case of oxidation.
2. Damage to wires. During prolonged use, electrical circuits may be damaged, especially if they were laid in the area of ​​moving parts of the body. Diagnostics will require the help of an electrician. If you have experience and skills, you can use a tester to find damaged wires. Electrical circuits must be replaced regardless of the nature of the damage.
3. Failure of one of the components. This could be a shock sensor, a processor module, or an antenna adapter. It is necessary to diagnose the contacts on these devices, and clean the oxidized connectors. For more serious problems, detailed diagnostics of the devices will be required. You can fix control unit malfunctions yourself if they are related to the hardware. When water gets on the device, it must be disassembled and dried. But in the case of software failures, it is recommended to entrust troubleshooting to experts, since the unit may need to be reflashed.
4. False positives. This problem is caused by errors made when adjusting the shock controller. In accordance with the instructions and installation diagram, it is necessary to adjust the sensor. It is necessary to reduce the sensitivity so that the controller is not triggered by passing cars. But the sensitivity threshold cannot be set to a minimum, since this will lead to the fact that Sherkhan Logicar 1 will not detect impacts on the car body at all.
