Possible malfunctions

Malfunctions that may occur during the operation of the key fob:

Incorrect battery installation. If polarity is not observed battery the power to the remote control will be interrupted and the device will not be able to be used.
The battery is dead. In this case, the signal quality deteriorates, the remote control commands are not executed the first time. You should open the back cover of the key fob and insert a new battery, observing the polarity.
Oxidation and contamination of the internal elements of the remote control. The body of the key fob is leaky and water-permeable, so the accumulation of dust and moisture inside it leads to damage to the contact elements and incorrect operation of the device. To eliminate the malfunction, the remote control must be disassembled, remove foreign substances with a dry cloth or cotton swabs. If cleaning did not help, it is necessary to diagnose the device with a multimeter for damaged contacts and, if any, re-solder them. To protect the key fob from dirt and moisture, you should purchase a cover.
Unstable operation of the remote control after a fall. Frequent breakdown after hitting the device on a hard surface, the quartz element is detached. It is necessary to disassemble the key fob, visually check the integrity of the component connections and “ring” its contacts with a multimeter to detect an open circuit. The problem of detaching the element is solved by soldering the contact joints and gluing the quartz to the board using thermal paste.
"Sticky" buttons. When a key is pressed, it does not return to its original position in a timely manner, as a result of which a short “click” is recognized by the system as a long one. In this case, it is necessary to wipe the buttons on the outside with an alcohol solution with a cotton swab or an old toothbrush. If such manipulations did not help, then the problem lies in the weak or missing contact of the electrical circuit. Such a malfunction is eliminated by changing the key to a new one.

Car alarm with auto start Tomahawk: instructions for use

Security systems Tomahawk belong to the category of budget models. In spite of low price, they have wide functionality, which is not inferior in reliability to branded alarms. The Tomahawk car alarm is a security system that operates using a two-way key fob. All commands are given by the driver remotely, and the information is displayed on the LCD screen.

Such alarms have a high range (from 1 km, depending on the model). This allows you to control the condition of the car without leaving home. The automatic engine start function is especially popular. To do this, you do not need to turn off the car's security system, just enter the command on the key fob. Encryption of data between the car and the key fob is carried out according to an individual code, which is assigned to each alarm individually. This reduces the risk of unauthorized access to the car.

Alarm Tomahawk TZ-9010

This security system will provide reliable protection vehicle. Most often it is purchased for installation on cars. Complete with the alarm, 2 sensors are installed: the temperature of the passenger compartment and the engine. They are necessary for remote start of the motor based on the characteristics specified by the driver. The price of car alarm Tomahawk TZ-9010 varies from 4000 to 6000 depending on the region in which it is purchased.

In addition to the presence of sensors for starting the engine, this alarm is distinguished by the presence of a turbo timer function. It is suitable for turbocharged cars. With the help of it, a command is programmed by the remote control that allows you to reduce the temperature of the motor after it is turned off. This significantly extends the service life of bearings in turbocharged engines.

Video review Tomahawk alarms TZ-9010

Scheme of connection and operation of the security system model TW-9010

This alarm is characterized by the presence of 3 additional channels connections. This allows you to simultaneously control the car in several directions. Tomahawk TW-9010 has a key fob with which all actions performed with the car are programmed.

The peculiarity of this security system is also that the communication between the car and the key fob is carried out at low frequencies of the 434 MHZ range. This significantly reduces radio interference, which is possible with the simultaneous use of alarms from key fobs (for example, in the parking lot of large shopping centers when dozens of security systems are used simultaneously and each of them is buggy).

Advantages of the TZ-9020 alarm

This security system is firmly entrenched in Russian market alarms. It gained particular popularity due to the presence of the engine relay blocking function. This means that in the event of a theft, the driver can remotely shut down the engine, preventing unauthorized access.

Also, this function allows you to start the engine without disarming the car. It is especially popular in winter and also in areas with harsh climates. Using the key fob, you can start the air conditioning system in the cabin. An important advantage of the TZ-9020 is the individual code that is issued to the driver when purchasing a security system. It is almost impossible to fake it, since the traditional code grabber does not work with it.

Features of operation of car alarm TZ-9030

Tomahawk TZ-9030 can be installed on cars with any gearbox. There are no restrictions on the type of car (passenger or truck model). Control over the state of the vehicle is carried out by issuing commands through a pocket keychain. Its range is 1.2 km. Together with the security system, the kit includes sensors: determining the temperature of the passenger compartment and the engine, the status of the doors and trunk, starting the engine.

Advantages of security systems Tomahawk XS and Z5

These alarms have a lot in common. The main difference is in the range: for XS -1 km, for Z5 - 1.4 km. Both models allow you to remotely start the engine based on the temperature in the cabin. This means that when the temperature drops to the indicator set by the driver, the alarm will automatically start the engine.

This is true in areas with a harsh climate, where there is a high risk of engine oil freezing. You can buy XS and Z5 at attractive prices, which increases the interest in them from car owners. In addition, these models have a turbo mode, i.e. allow cooling of the turbocharged engine, which increases the life of consumable parts.

Features of operation of the alarm LR-950LE

This model has a high cost and belongs to security systems providing an increased level of security. It is achieved by using additional functions. For example, an additional blocking of the motor.

This command is programmable and, at the request of the driver, can be installed on cars that are prone to theft. Its essence lies in the fact that when the driver's door is opened, the engine cannot be started without a command from the key fob. This is effective way, allowing you to protect the car from intruders.

Another one additional function- timer to start the engine. It allows you to start the engine at the time specified by the driver. Most often - every hour. This is suitable for vehicles that operate in areas with low temperatures around the clock.

The Tomahawk alarm system is one of the most common on the Russian market. Introduced in the early 2000s, this trademark has become one of the synonyms for reliable and functional car alarms.

The automotive market does not stand still, and the range of related electronics, too. The burglar alarm system has long turned from a simple "signaling" that controls the integrity of the car into a complex complex that performs a wide variety of service functions. Increasing competition also contributes to this, thanks to which burglar alarms have become not only multifunctional, but also quite affordable.

Functional equipment

Modern Tomahawk car alarms have a very wide range of functions, both primary and secondary. The models x5, z5, 9010, 9030 are especially popular. It makes no sense to consider them separately, their types and descriptions differ only in the set of functions. But almost all of them have the following features:

Feedback dialogue with a range of up to 1200m;
Auto start of the engine with the possibility of setting depending on the temperature of the engine or on a timer;
Disabling a faulty security zone;
Up to four additional control channels;
Automatic arming;
Engine blocking;
Management and programming of the central lock;
Turbo timer;
Immobilizer;
Remote interrogation of a condition of sensors.

Among all this diversity, several functions deserve special mention.

Auto start of the engine allows you to start the car engine from a distance so that in the cold season you can sit in an already warmed-up interior and immediately start driving without waiting for the engine to warm up.

Feedback now takes place in almost all alarms and is indispensable in situations where direct visual contact with the car is lost. When the alarm is triggered by the key fob signals, you can determine what is happening with the car.

In addition, when arming in the event of a malfunction of one of protection zones the owner will be able to find out which one needs to be inspected and repaired.

Other functions are also in demand, although they are not always used. It should be noted that competitors, for example, signaling Centurion, Pharaoh, Mongoose, offer similar models with the same list of functions, so the competition in this segment is very high.

Completeness

The kit includes the main unit, a set of wires for connection, a set of necessary sensors, an antenna unit, two control key fobs (one of them with a liquid crystal display and feedback), an override button, additional relays and detailed instructions for operation and installation.

Connection

All Tomahawk alarms are installed and connected according to a single algorithm, therefore connection diagram the same for many models.

Partially disassembled front panel, sometimes the instrument panel is removed to provide access to the necessary connections;
With appropriate wires according to the manual, it is connected to the on-board electrical network, ignition, starter circuit (if it is a model with auto start), light signaling;
The siren is being installed, all necessary sensors, additional Limit switches controlling the opening of the hood and trunk;
The system is connected to the central lock or to electric door locks;
An external antenna is installed, override button.
All removed items are returned. in place and set up.

Alarm setting

After installation, you need to configure it. Many of the default alarm settings are suitable for everyday use, but a few settings need to be configured. The first is the sensitivity of the shock sensor. It has special adjustment screws that change the sensitivity. In the most extreme setting, the system will be triggered even by a breath of wind. Therefore, the desired sharpness of the setting is set empirically, based on your own preferences.

You can also turn off the locking of the door locks when the ignition is turned on and the notification of false positive. In addition, the time and frequency of starting the engine and numerous settings associated with the Tomahawk alarm key fob are regulated - the current time, vibration, backlight, and more.

Emergency shutdown of the alarm

If the system does not work correctly, the battery in the remote control is dead, or the Tomahawk alarm key fob is lost altogether, there is a way to turn off the Tomahawk alarm. To do this, do the following:

Open the door and turn on the ignition;
Press the valet button 3 times;
Siren will give 3 short beeps and the turn signals will also flash 3 times. Guard mode will be disabled.

If there is an unlock code, the key fob display will constantly show the inscription “pin code”. In this case, the valet button must be pressed the number of times corresponding to the digits of the code - first the first number, and then, after turning the ignition off and on again, the second. It must be borne in mind that the number of clicks for different models may vary. The instructions for use describe the procedure for each model separately.

The Tomahawk company produces many models of car alarms that will satisfy the widest range of requests and needs. Customer reviews confirm this - long and trouble-free operation, convenient operation and high reliability, combined with a fairly affordable price, allow it to confidently withstand competitors.

Warming up the engine at a given temperature in salarm Tomohawk 9010

The Tomahawk TW -9010 system provides an additional temperature sensor for installation under the hood of a car. If this sensor is installed, the car is started and warmed up according to the readings of the sensor, otherwise, according to the readings of the temperature sensor inside the passenger compartment.

In order to activate this function, it is necessary to simultaneously press and hold the "KEY" and "HOOD" buttons. The parking lights will flash 1 time and the siren will sound 1 "CHIRP" to confirm that the function has been activated. The keyfob-pager display will show the “engine warm-up” icon (in the form of a fan) and the set temperature for turning on the warm-up, accompanied by a melody. When the temperature reaches the set temperature to enable automatic warm-up, the engine will start for the previously programmed time.

To disable this function must be pressed buttons "KEY" and "HOOD". The parking lights will flash 2 times, the system will emit 2 “CHIRPS” to confirm that the function is disabled. The “engine warm-up” icon will disappear on the display of the keyfob-pager, a melody will sound.

Note

Automatic warming up of the engine according to the set temperature is performed no more than 6 times in 2 hours.

The temperature for automatic engine warm-up can be set to -5°C, -10°C, -20°C, -30°C.

Engine temperature programming for automatic warm-up

To enter programming mode, do the following:

Turn on the ignition (engine must not be running),

Press the "Override" button 6 times,

Turn off the ignition (confirmation of entering the programming mode of 6 “CHIRPs” of the siren).

2 presses of the “Override” button - entry into the heating temperature programming for automatic warm-up, confirmation - 2 short “CHIRPS”. Further:

button "LOCK" - setting to -5 ° С, confirmation - 1 "CHIRP",

«KEY» at -10° С, 2 «CHIRPS»,

«HOOD» at -20° С, 3 «CHIRPA»,

· "SOUND" at -30° С, 4 "CHIRPS".

Factory setting -10°C.

Daily (1, 2, 4, 12-hour) autostart inalarm Tomohawk 9010

To activate this function, you must simultaneously press and hold the "KEY" and "SOUND" buttons. The parking lights will flash 1 time to confirm the activation of the function. The CLOCK icon will appear on the key fob-pager display, and a melody will sound.

After activating this function, starting from next day, the system will automatically start the engine daily at the time this function was activated.

To disable the daily autostart function, press the "KEY" and "SOUND" buttons. The parking lights will flash 2 times to confirm that the function is disabled. The “CLOCK” icon will disappear on the key fob-pager display, a melody will sound.

To activate 1, 2, 4, 12-hour start, you must activate the daily auto-start function, and then within 5 seconds. After its activation, press the corresponding button on the key fob:

"LOCK" - for hourly start,

"KEY" - to start the engine with an interval of 2 hours,

"HOOD" - to start the engine with an interval of 4 hours,

· "SOUND" - to start the engine with an interval of 12 hours.

How to put heating on the Tomahawk is a fairly relevant issue in our time. The auto-heating function, installed on the basis of the alarm, is considered very useful, especially for those who have to leave their car unattended for a long time in the cold season, as they say, “under a clear sky”.

It would seem that putting the car on heating is easy, especially if there is an instruction, but if it is lost, what to do? Contact the company where you installed the alarm?

The second option is much easier, faster and more profitable, because you do not have to go anywhere. So, what to do if you need to warm up the car if you use a modern Tomahawk car alarm? As you know, this system has an additional temperature sensor, which is installed under the hood of the car. If you have instructions, then you can see the installation location of the sensor in the diagrams.

If there is a sensor, warming up and starting the car engine is carried out according to the readings of this device, and if there is no such sensor, then the start is carried out on the basis of a temperature sensor that is installed in the cabin of your iron friend.

How to put on heating?

How to put warm on Tomahawk- Yes, it's very simple, you just need to activate it with a key fob-pager. To activate the engine warm-up function, you need to simultaneously press and hold two special buttons on the remote control key fob. These two buttons have icons - trunk and key.

When these two keys are pressed at the same time, the parking lights will start working at the car, which will go out at the same moment, and the siren will give out one “CHIRP”. In this way, it will confirm that the function is activated.

At the same moment, an icon in the form of a snowflake and a temperature will be displayed on your pager (key fob), which is pre-programmed to turn on the heating. It's simple - when the temperature in the car's cabin reaches the one you set to automatically turn on the warm-up, the car's engine will start for the previously set time.

If you wish to disable this feature, then you need to press the same combination of buttons that you pressed in order to activate it, that is, the buttons with the designation of the key and trunk.

In this case, the parking lights will blink twice and the system will make two "CHIRPS", thereby confirming the deactivation of this function. At the same time, the star-shaped icon will disappear from the keyfob display and a melody will sound. It should be noted that the automatic heating of the motor when the selected temperature is reached will be performed no more than 6 times in 2 hours, and the temperature is set in the range of minus 5-30°C.

Setting a specific temperature

Now it’s worth talking about how to set a certain temperature level, which is necessary to automatically start the car’s engine. In order to set the automatic operation of the engine at a temperature of -5 ° C, press and hold the button on which the icon in the form of a lock and the system will emit 1 CHIRP. If you want to set the temperature for starting the motor to -10°C, you should hold the button with the key, and the system will issue 2 "CHIRPS".

For setting start at -20°C, you need to hold the button with the trunk icon and the system will emit 3 "CHIRPS", and to start at -30 ° C, you should hold the mute button until the system issues 4 "CHIRPS".

Setting the start timer

Now you should figure out how to set a specific time at which the car will work. To do this, you need to hold several buttons at the same time:

timer for 10 minutes - hold the mute button and press "F";
timer for 20 minutes - hold the mute button and press "F" twice;
work for 30 minutes - hold the button to deactivate the sound and press "F" three times;
work for 1 hour - hold the sound deactivation button and press “F” four times;
similarly, to set the timer for 1.5 and 2 hours, hold the mute button and press "F" 5 and 6 times, respectively.

As a rule, when installing an alarm in the cabin, professionals will do everything for you and you should not worry about the fact that you will need to install any functions yourself. If you don’t understand how to put the heating on the Tomahawk, then ask a specialist in the cabin about it. Usually, when installing a "reliable guard" for your iron horse, special instruction, where commands for connecting a particular function are presented.

The line of car alarms "Tomahawk" was one of the first in the domestic segment to acquire the function of auto-starting the engine. The advent of a new optional took place more than 10 years ago, and it is clear that today this opportunity will surprise few people. In the era of the development of telematics systems, a budget two-way module without innovative additions may even seem outdated. Nevertheless, according to the main working qualities, the Tomahawk 9010 looks decent against the background of modern security systems.

System functionality

The entire set of functions can be divided into two groups. The first will include basic capabilities, which are available in almost all electronic car alarms, and in the second - additional features characteristic of modern models. As for the main protection tools, the first thing to note is the Tomahawk 9010 keychain with a miniature screen through which you can program the module and control key functions. The user will have a complete set of protective mechanisms for windows, doors and trunk with a hood. All manipulations with guard modes may be accompanied by light and sound signals, vibration and sending corresponding messages.

The most interesting, of course, additional options, the main of which in this module is autorun. With this function, you can pre-set the car to warm up with the engine running. The Tomahawk 9010 system offers a wide range of options for autorun control with indication of time, intervals and remote control. Also, among the auxiliary functions, one can single out the self-diagnosis mode, obtaining information from sensors (temperature and shock), controlling the microclimate in the cabin and protecting against false alarms.

Modification "Tomahawk TW 9010"

The 9010 series has long term life, and one of its first generations was the TW module, which received a basic set of functions, and a few years later, due to technological obsolescence, was replaced by the TZ package. But, oddly enough, in terms of software, the modifications are almost identical. One of the key performance characteristics is signal range. In the case of TW, it is only 800 m. It may seem old-fashioned to complete the system, which lacks a siren, tag, tilt sensors and a call to the car owner. But "Tomahawk 9010" in this version includes a temperature sensor. It is important to note that the absence of some functional components does not mean that the module does not support them in principle - accordingly, an additional purchase will be required. Compensate for the lack of devices wide opportunities arming and advanced modes. In particular, work programs "Jack" and "Anti-Hack" are provided.

Modification "Tomahawk TZ 9010"

For the most part, this rendition kept the entire set useful features, and performance indicators in individual parameters have been improved. So, the range in this version is no longer 800, but 1200 m, and the number of zones controlled through the key fob has expanded from 6 to 7. As for the configuration, the new package is more attractive - it has a full set of sensors with a driver call button, but there is also no label. There are also features in terms of functionality. Modification "Tomahawk TZ 9010" allows you to receive signals from the tachometer, as well as respond to the reaction of the pressure regulation system. Together, this makes it possible to more effectively control the operation of the engine in remote mode. But on the other hand, the TW version allows you to control the engine based on noise in the on-board network. Otherwise, it should be borne in mind that both generations of the series are built on a single element platform and, at least, the quality of their hardware matches each other.

Installing the main components

The controller (or control unit) is located in the passenger compartment - it is optimal if there is a place for it under the dashboard. Fastening is carried out with profile clamps, brackets or other fasteners, depending on the design of the car. The main thing is to eliminate the vibration effect, thereby reducing the likelihood of damage to the Tomahawk 9010 system unit. The instructions for placing the RF antenna note that it should be mounted as high as possible while minimizing interference. Installation is carried out different ways depending on the selected point. The restriction on the choice of location for this component is due to the exclusion of contacts with electrical wiring and metal surfaces.

Mechanical protection will be provided by trunk and hood triggers. In order for the Tomahawk 9010 alarm to consistently provide control of these devices, they should be placed in closed and protected from moisture places. Otherwise, there will be a risk of jamming of the mechanisms. Also, sensors are placed at protected points, but in such a way that they still have access to the target zone - to monitor the state of window glass or temperature. The detectors are fixed with self-tapping screws or by gluing.

Connection

In the process of introducing an alarm into the electrical infrastructure of the car, the use of several wires will be required. So, to connect to the starter, a black and yellow 12 V cable is used with a signal output to the equipment relay. Auxiliary equipment for the Tomahawk 9010 system is introduced into the network through a wire of blue color- this connection will provide a 12 volt output with ACC ignition. For the energy supply of the system, respectively, the supply wire will be responsible - a thin red contour. It should be connected to the battery pack through a fuse.

A thick red wire is also included in the kit. With its help, it is separately provided power supply circuit serving the remote start function. Regardless of the purpose of the wire, all electrical circuits of the Tomahawk 9010 alarm must have reliable insulation. It is desirable that the laying of cable lines is carried out in places that are not affected by thermal and electromagnetic radiation local equipment.

Instructions for setting up sensors

Threshold values are set for the temperature detector, at which it will send signals to the key fob or automatically correct the autorun operation - this depends on the previously set program. The shock sensor included in the set of new modifications "Tomahawk 9010" is also configured separately. The instruction indicates that the sensitivity of the device should be adjusted according to the test results of its operation. To do this, it is necessary to provoke him to give a signal by lightly tapping on the body. The blows should follow serially and give a tangible push. Thus, there is a balance in the level of sensitivity - the threshold should not be excessively low, but high limits are undesirable, since there will be a possibility of ignoring the actions of an intruder.

User manual

Most of the actions will be performed using the key fob. Through the buttons assigned to certain tasks, the user can arm the car, remove it from this mode, connect protective equipment etc. Separately, you can configure accompanying reactions - the same visual effects, messages and sound signals from the Tomahawk 9010 module. Autostart can be programmed through the system unit or controlled remotely. Using the same key fob, the parameters for starting the engine in the current mode or at a certain time are set.

Conclusion

For its time, the model has become almost an exemplary performance of car alarms. And the point is not even in the autorun function, but in the basic quality of the execution of the electrical filling and design. However, the functionality still deserves high marks. The transmitter that connects the Tomahawk 9010 key fob and the central controller is characterized by stable and reliable signal transmission. This indicator is one of the key quality properties, according to which modern modules are also evaluated. It is also worth noting that the line continues its life in the form of more advanced and functional modifications.

We will talk about the features of the operation of one system - Tomahawk 10.1. Of course, the owner always has the instructions supplied with the signaling. However, the Tomahawk alarm of the "10" family is characterized by features that are rarely found in other brands. These features relate to autorun control, as well as to the operation of the built-in turbo timer. All details will be discussed below. We took the text of the official instructions as the basis for the review.

Key fobs basic functions

It is recommended to check the completeness. The car alarm is supplied with two remotes - the main and additional. The first of them can be charged via the USB port, and its configuration is carried out as follows: press key 7, then select the option with buttons 6 and 5. Confirm your choice with key 1, and use button 2 to cancel or exit the "menu":

Keyrings Tomahawk family "10"

In this mode, for example, you can set the clock, which is important for subsequent operation.

A list of all options configured using the "menu" is given in the basic instructions:

Button lock;
Saving energy - the option refers to the key fob;
Events - viewing the last ten events that caused the car alarm to go into alarm mode;
Date and time - setting values;
Alarm setting;
Timer – the option does not apply to autostart or turbo timer;
Button sound;
Vibration or melody;
Screensaver selection;
Demo mode;
Reset key fob settings;
Volume;
Additional Information;
Shutdown.

To arm, press button 1. To disable this mode, use a second press. To activate the "security without sound", press the key 4 or 6. It is also useful to read the readings of the sensors: press the button 5, the display will show the information.

The result of checking the state of the car

Communication range car alarmsand the key fob is 1300 m. For an additional remote control, the value does not exceed 20 m. By pressing button 3, it is checked whether the connection is actually working.

Remote and automatic start

Autostart - this is the start of the engine in automatic modewhen the car is parked. At the same time, by short pressing the button 2, you can remote start. The engine running time is set in the system settings. However, its operation can be stopped by pressing the key 2 again. The "forced stop" operation is valid in the following cases: if the engine was started by autostart or remotely.

Preparing to launch a car with a manual gearbox

Let's open the instructions that came with the Tomahawk 10.1 system. Here it is proposed, leaving the car in the parking lot, to carry out the preparation procedure. If you skip it, the alarm will not respond to the start command, and the “automatic” start is also blocked in this case.

Jumper must be open

The main thing is that the preparation procedure is carried out for machines with MCP.

The actions performed during the "preparation" will lead to the activation of the armed mode:

Apply the handbrake;
Press and release key 2 - the key fob emits a signal, the "Start" icon appears;
The key is transferred to the OFF mark, it is removed, but the motor must continue to work;
It is necessary to leave the salon and close the doors, which is done until 30 seconds have passed since the moment key 2 was pressed;
After the doors are closed, the alarm will turn on the armed mode forcibly.

Engine operation in step 5 will be stopped unless the turbo timer option is used. As you can see, in order to use autorun, you need to leave the car armed. What is the peculiarity of the systems of the considered model.

On a car with a "Start / Stop" button, the Tomahawk alarm can also be installed. Then the preparation is carried out according to the scheme indicated above, but with one difference - you need to skip "step 3". There will be no other differences.

"Start-Stop" button in the car

Switching autorun modes

remote start of the car engine by programming the activation functions for a certain time. This is especially important in the winter season, when it is necessary to warm up the car in advance before the trip;
start of self-diagnostics of systems;
making a call to the owner of the machine in case of system sensors triggering.

To remotely start the car engine from the Tomahawk TZ-9010 key fob, you must press button 2 (see figure).

Numbering and location of buttons on the Tomahawk TZ-9010 key fob

The success of this action is confirmed by:

the headlights of the car should blink three times;
the siren should “respond” three times with a sound alert;
on the key fob display there will be a corresponding identification about starting / not starting the engine.

After the car engine starts, it can work out the time interval programmed by the system, then automatically turn off.

The engine running time can be extended by five minutes by simultaneously pressing keys “1” and “2”.

To start the car engine remotely, the following conditions must be met:

switched off ignition;
the hood is closed;
Gearbox in neutral;
the car is on the handbrake.

If these conditions are not met, the machine will “respond” to an attempt to start the engine with a four-time sound alert.

To turn off the car from the key fob (switch off the engine from the key fob) using the Tomahawk TZ-9010, you must press the “2” button, while the car will respond with a double beep and flash the headlights twice.

Starting / stopping the engine of a vehicle from an additional key fob is carried out in the same way as from the main one.

Auto start by temperature, time from key fob

The manufacturer of the TZ-9010 tomahawk has provided in the system a special sensor (engine temperature sensor) mounted under the hood of the vehicle, which is used to provide automatic start by temperature. Which buttons to press: this function is activated by simultaneously pressing buttons “2” and “3” of the key fob.

When the function is activated, an audible signal will sound and the headlights will flash once, while the corresponding indication will appear on the display and the response temperature will be shown automatic start. This mode is deactivated (autorun is disabled) by pressing the same buttons again. The reaction of the car will be identical to that when the automation is turned on.

The Tomahawk TZ-9010 system also provides for scheduled start of the car engine. To do this, simultaneously press buttons “2” and “4” on the key fob. If you have completed this action successfully, the car should beep and flash the headlights once. At the same time, the corresponding icon with a clock will be displayed on the key fob and the melody will play.

After activating this function, the vehicle will start at the same time every day.

Scheduled engine start is disabled by pressing the same buttons again.

Additionally, there is a function of monitoring the temperature in the car interior and the state of protection. The request is made by pressing button “3”. To open the trunk, it is necessary to hold the button “3” for a long time.

Why autorun might not work

Among the most common malfunctions of the Tomahawk TZ-9010 alarm are the following:

“dead” battery in the key fob (the battery is dead). should be replaced;
the influence of electromagnetic interference on the car (it happens near high-voltage power lines or power plants);
“lost” the setting of the control panel. In this case, it should be rebooted, possibly even reprogrammed.

If autostart does not work, it is necessary to double-check the connection of all sensors to the vehicle systems.
