Im trying to get my Avant Guard 5.5 to talk to my new Callguard unit CG2.1

I can make the callguard controll my outputs i.e windows, boot, headlights.

Although i cant get the unit to txt me when the alarm triggers i have wired it to the Horn output as advised by my installer but it still wont txt me

Any ideas

Cheers

Andrew

Yellow/white marked 2nd siren, its neg going so you have to convert as follows with a relay. 

Yellow /white to 85, 12v+  constant fused 3 amps to 86 and 30, 87 to siren input (brown?) on Callguard.

Hi Howie

Cheers for that. the installer got 90% of it done yesterday but due to the fcat i have other circuits wired into the car he didnt get round to this bit, he had been working on the car for just over 8 hours.

he had a right pig of a job getting the Central Locking to work but he got round that.

Am i right in thinking the horn out put wont be able to tell the Call guard the difference between proximity warn and full trigger?

Also what might be the reason the i cant get a GPS fix on the car if i send the code to the call guard i dont get a txt back. the Antenna is hidden out the way but not near the glass etc its got a Magnetic back so its stuck to a part of the bodywork or could i just be in a poor GPS reception area??

Cheers

Andrew

What vehicle? I can't help you unless you tell me.  8 hours seems a long time, even with R/S etc. Incidentally I would only use the prox, the tilt's liable to falsing and the glass break has to be turned down to accomodate the oter zone warn-away preventing it triggering that it's as good as useless.

Regarding the Callguard, if the LED  on the Callguard where the loom goes in flahes quickly every 5 secs. there's nothing wrong with it.  Antenna mounted to bodywork where?.

Remove the SIM card and test it in another phone, make sure it works (I keep a couple of spare unlocked phones for SIM testing, have to do this quite often on tracking equipment).  Send a text message with it, then wipe all calls made and stored numbers from the SIM card, then re-insert it.

Yes you're right a warn-away wont trigger the call-guard but does it matter? You would have to substitute a 508d for the regular dual-zone prox and is it worth it?

Hi Its a 2002 Lexus Is200

the time was takn trying to integrate it into some of my after market features like folding mirrors i also had the intelistart wired in headlight flashing and cable routing was a bit of a problem

the callguard works if i send it the status code itreturns the message armed or not armed and i can controll the outputs i have wired in im goin to put the relay in i fel stupid now asi didnt check the manual to see if it was neg or pos out put on the alarm but now i know

the callguard is wired as defualy on the install guide it dosnt need to be wired as armed for the GPS to work does it ?

no the walkaway isnt really worth wiring to the call guard i will be wiring in the door trigger feeds to it not that they matter as if the alarm triggers the unit will tell me...

Cheers

Andrew

The UK IS 200 is a PITA to do the locks unless you are me., but again it's easy if you know the vehicle, e.g. tach essentially you throw away the DEI installation guide.

Hey

Yeah the Installer said it was a PITA to do the locks he did it with out using a relay which i thought he would have needed bassed on https://www.the12volt.com/installbay/file.asp?ID=661

he has dne it and bypassed the door lock switch on the drivers door. what way would you have done it just out of intrest would it have meant i could have kept my door lock switch ?

he made everything else work, i guess the bonus of doing the work with the installer helped me understand the way it was all installed i mean i do alot of in car electronics, but was unsure of how the clifford worked but do now

Firstly no customer comes within 50metres of me working. Second you don't need a relasy 'cause it's built into the alarm; which leads me back to that first comment. Customers are good for making me tea, getting me ciggies and leaving me alone, especially the locks on that vehicle, you don't have to go into the door, but you do have to muller a processor.
