The Tomahawk alarm product line is constantly updated. It is not surprising that many models were discontinued and replaced by new devices with expanded functionality and increased reliability.

The alarm market in Russia is developing rapidly. It was once believed that an alarm system should cost at least five percent of the price of a car. Now the first-class Tomahawk 9030 system can be purchased for nine thousand rubles.

The fact is that technological progress does not stand still. Every year new technologies appear that make us look at old alarms as a rarity. And it’s not even that the new boards are more productive, and the key fob has a dozen additional functions. It’s just that thieves are also improving, constantly coming up with new methods of hacking.

It is not surprising that the Tomahawk company is doing everything possible to bring to the market high-quality alarms at an affordable price with new protective systems. Not only that, other brands are doing the same. Great competition and ever-growing demands have turned modern anti-theft systems into real works of art.

Description of alarms

Tomahawk alarms have auto-start and feedback (top models). They work with dialog and dynamic codes. As a result the frequency range is 434 and 868 megahertz.

"Tomahawk" 9.9

To be honest, modern systems have such an impressive list of features that it can take several hours to disassemble them. Take, for example, the top model Tomahawk 9.9. Here is the full set of functions of the anti-theft device:

1. Feedback;
2. vehicle search system in case of theft;
3. setting the engine start depending on the temperature;
4. bypass the faulty zone;
5. four key fobs and additional control channels;
6. remote status polling;
7. autostart;
8. automatic arming;
9. two-level shock sensor;
10. "Comfort" system;
11. engine blocking;
12. central locking control;
13. built-in memory;
14. security mode;
15. activation of the engine at a certain temperature;
16. possibility of programming locks;
17. sensor status data;
18. several operating modes;
19. remote trunk opening;
20. immobilizer;
21. turbo timer.

As you can see, there are more than enough functions. Some of them need to be discussed in a little more detail. The most popular of all is autostart. In addition, it allows you to activate a number of other functional additions.

Autostart allows you to activate the engine at a great distance from the car. For example, in winter, before you get behind the wheel, you activate this “Tomahawk” alarm function at home, and the engine will start working, warming up the interior.

Advice! In the summer heat, the auto start function can be used to activate the air conditioning and get into a cool cabin.

Alarm "Tomahawk" 9.9 is programmable. This means that you can configure the autorun function yourself. For example, it will be activated when a certain temperature is reached.

Important! In order for temperature detection to become a reality, a special sensor is installed under the hood.

The Tomahawk 9.9 alarm function - feedback - deserves special attention. The key fob and the on-board control unit constantly exchange signals with each other. Once the process is interrupted, the system will notify you with an appropriate sound signal.

I would also like to recall one more feature that the Tomahawk 9.9 alarm system has, namely, remote opening and closing of locks. One press of the button on the key fob is enough to open the trunk. This is a great time saver.

Other Tomahawk alarms and their characteristics

The Tomahawk company produces a variety of alarms for a variety of target audiences. In its assortment you can find anti-theft systems designed for Laxuary class cars and for ordinary “nines” or “sevens”. However, all devices have some common features, such as:

• five-button key fob with high-quality screen;
• Feedback;
• remote warming up and starting the engine;
• enhanced signal interception protection.

All top-end Tomahawk alarms have these features. It is possible that models without feedback can be found on sale now, but in 90 percent of cases they have long been discontinued.

It's nice to note that the Tomahawk company tries to make each alarm unique. This is expressed in the set of capabilities that a particular model has. As a result, the car owner can make a selection for himself personally and save money.

Important! Some drivers do not need additional functions at all; most simply need autostart in order for the car to work without failures in the winter.

Take, for example, the Tomahawk TZ-9010 alarm system. She has:

• anti-scanner,
• autostart,
• anti-grabber,
• protection against false positives.

If necessary, this device can call the driver if something wrong happens to the car. A nice addition to the main characteristics is self-diagnosis. In the event of a breakdown, the Tomahawk 9.9 alarm system will notify the driver of the malfunction.

Alarm "Tomahawk" TZ-9020 in addition to the functionality described above equipped with non-volatile memory. This means that the system will remember absolutely everything, even if the power goes out. Other nice additions include a two-level power sensor and an immobilizer.

The Tomahawk TZ-9030 alarm system has an extended range of 1200 meters. The Z3 has a remote trunk release feature and can lock the engine if it is started unauthorized.

Important! The Tomahawk Z3 alarm system can be installed on both cars with automatic transmission and manual transmission.

The Tomahawk TW-7000 has long been discontinued. But it is still on millions of cars. Therefore, it is simply impossible not to say a few words about her. It gained immense popularity among motorists because it had such features as:

• car detection,
• protection against false positives;
• protection from attack.

The system was able to automatically switch to security mode and was extremely convenient to use. There were legends about its invulnerability.

User manual

First we need to give one important clarification. All Tomahawk alarms have similar operating instructions. But some manuals for systems with advanced functionality simply contain a detailed description of each function.

You need to start by adjusting the sensitivity of the sensors. This is an extremely important stage. If you configure the device incorrectly, even a breath of wind will cause the siren to wail. To configure, you need to perform the following steps:

1. Put the system into reprogramming mode.
2. Select a value from 1 to 10 on the sensitivity scale.
3. Increase the sensitivity gradually until you reach the desired value.

In some cases, during operation of the alarm, drivers enter too many settings, which is why the entire system begins to work incorrectly. In this case, you just need to reset the old settings.

This can be easily done using the OVERRIDE button. Press it nine times with the ignition off. Turn the key and press the button. Another beep will sound. After this, all you have to do is put your finger on the image of the lock.

At the end of this procedure, you need to turn off the ignition. If everything was done correctly, the parking lights will flash five times and the Tomahawk alarm will reset. All parameters will return to their original settings.

To make the operation of the Tomahawk alarm system as convenient as possible, one cannot help but recall such a function as autostart. To activate it, you first need to park the car. Then you need to switch to neutral and pull the handbrake all the way. Now you can press the button with the corresponding designation. At the end, a sound alert will sound.

Important! After you hear the sound, remove the key from the lock and leave the salon within half a minute, remembering to close the door.

To turn on the sound on the Tomahawk alarm there is a special button on the key fob. Moreover, the liquid crystal display shows whether the sound is on or off. This can be easily understood by the speaker icon.

Basic functions are programmed using the OVERRIDE button. Usually it is located under the steering wheel, provided that the alarm was installed at an auto center. If you did everything yourself, then finding the right key will not be difficult for you.

Results

The Tomahawk company provides a wide selection of alarm systems to suit every taste and budget. Refusal of functions unnecessary for you allows purchase a system with autostart for 7-8 thousand rubles, which is more than a good offer.

Separately, we need to mention ease of use. Even complex program actions can be carried out using a single button. It is enough to know the algorithm of clicks and all settings will be reset.

The modern automotive electronics market offers consumers many types of anti-theft systems. Moreover, alarm models can have not only protective, but also additional functions aimed at making driving more comfortable. What the Tomahawk 9010 alarm system is, the operating instructions, as well as installation recommendations are described in this article.

Settings and Features

First of all, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the installation manual or without it yourself. Regardless of the model, alarms must be installed according to the same principle.

How to install?

The installation process of anti-theft equipment briefly looks like this:

1. First, the on-board network is de-energized; for this purpose, the battery is disconnected.
2. Then a control device is installed - a block; it should be placed in the cabin, behind the dashboard, so that a criminal cannot reach it in the event of a car break-in.
3. Next, the antenna adapter is installed. It is better to place it at the top of the windshield, on the inside, that is, in the cabin. Important - the antenna adapter should not come into contact with metal parts of the body and wiring, otherwise interference may occur when transmitting the signal from the key fob.
4. Then the siren is installed - it must be placed with the horn down in the engine compartment. It is also advisable to limit access to the siren; also keep in mind that its operation can be negatively affected by high temperatures and moisture.
5. If the system is equipped with a temperature sensor, then it is advisable to place this element in the engine compartment, in close proximity to the engine. This way the device will transmit the most accurate data.
6. Limit switches are mounted in the doors, trunk lid and hood.
7. A diode light bulb also needs to be installed in the area of ​​the windshield - its blinking will let potential intruders know that the car is under guard.
8. The impact controller is mounted in the vehicle interior; it is advisable to place it in the central part of the body. The device is fixed using ties or tape.
9. Then all elements are connected to the control module, and the wires are better protected with fuses and also additionally insulated.

Functions 9030

The instructions included with model 9030 describe all the nuances of installing and using the alarm. Main functions: Loading...

In this article we will look at how to install the TOMAHAWK 9010 alarm yourself.

Typically, alarm installation begins with a hood opening sensor and the installation of a horn.

Installing the hood opening sensor

Often the forge is attached to any bolt securing the throttle cable. In order to install the sensor, we will use the technological hole under the hood cover.

After the hood sensor is installed, we begin to make a connection with a connection chip, this is done so that later we can connect it to the temperature sensor. Now we need to tighten the wiring harness through the rubber junction; this junction contains the standard harness. You need to run orange-gray and gray wires under the hood.

Connecting the trunk sensor

The next installation step is connecting the wire to the trunk sensor. We use a standard sensor. To hook up the sensor, we need to find the blue wire on the trunk lamp and solder to it the wire that will stretch along the left threshold.

Then you can start connecting the trunk opening and central locking control relay. To do this, you need to find the multiplex unit, it should be located on the back of the fuse box, behind the glove compartment, it looks like a small flat box. In order to get to it, you will need to remove the fuse box, do not forget to unhook all the connectors, as soon as they are unhooked, you can remove the block.

Now we turn it over and see the same multiplex unit we need, on which the central locking relay is located, as well as the remote trunk opening.

In order to remove the covers you need to unscrew four screws. In order to pull the multiplex out from there, you will need to halve the block.

Using a screwdriver, carefully pry off the latches and disconnect the block.

Connecting the central lock

On the board you need to solder wires to the contacts that are responsible for opening and closing the doors.

Please note that points 1 and 2 are responsible for closing and opening the doors, and the 3rd point is responsible for the trunk lock.

Now you need to make a hole in the multiplex box in order to bring the wires out.

Installation of an alarm unit

Now we begin to disassemble the center console in order to make a place for installing the main alarm unit:

It is advisable to immediately remove from the block those wires that are not needed:

1. Blue – red (door sensor positive control);
2. Yellow-black (1 additional channel);
3. Yellow-blue (3 additional channel);
4. Blue (interior lighting);
5. Black-red (IGN3);
6. Purple (anti-HI-JACK button);
7. Yellow-red (additional channel 2);
8. Black and white (additional blocking).

Now remove and solder the blue wire with a black stripe to the oil pressure sensor wire.

Then connect to the LED, which will turn on when the doors are opened. Next, we disassemble the panel and solder the wire to the cathode. We begin to draw out the wiring.

This wire connects to the blue-black one, which is located on the alarm unit itself. That's it, the panel can be put back in place. Now on the ignition switch block we are looking for a white-red wire - a permanent plus, to it you need to solder the red wire coming from the power connector of the signaling. The black and white wire is responsible for the starter, you need to cut it and hook it up according to the diagram.

Don't forget to solder a diode to it to avoid self-induction.

There is also a black and yellow wire on the lock - this is the ignition switch, IGN1 is soldered to it. A black and yellow thin wire is responsible for ACC; you need to solder the blue wire to it. The green IGN2 wire is soldered to the red-black wire.

Now the resulting harness is wound with insulating tape along with the relay, and connected to the alarm. Now we solder to the turn signal relay, it is located behind the small glove compartment to the right of the steering wheel.

Then we solder the green-black and green-yellow wires to the relay.

All that remains is to connect the transceiver to the windshield.

The shock sensor must be attached with double-sided tape to any metal part of the body.

Installation Guide.

I. Basic principles of installation.

The Tomahawk TW-9020 security system has a classic connection diagram. First of all, before starting the installation, turn off the on-board power supply to the vehicle (disconnect the “-” battery terminal). To select installation locations for security system units, be guided by the following principles:

• Concealment of installation.
• There are no sources of heat and moisture near the blocks.
• Provide for minimal influence of standard electronics and alarm units on each other.

Attention! The radiating antenna must be installed away from the alarm and vehicle control units. When installing, try to minimize the length of the wires.

II. Selecting the location of the main blocks

1. The electronic alarm control unit is installed inside the vehicle's interior. To obtain maximum range, the transmit-receive “RF” antenna of the system unit must be positioned as high as possible, and not come into contact with metal objects or electrical wiring harnesses.
2. The siren is installed in the engine compartment, in an inaccessible place; if you use an autonomous siren, provide access to the service key hole. The siren should be installed with the horn down, this will prevent moisture from entering. It is better to plan the wire connections inside the cabin for less oxidation.
3. All high current circuits (power supply, parking lights, central locking, etc.) must be protected by fuses of the appropriate rating.
4. The hood and trunk triggers cut into places protected from moisture that are inaccessible when the hood and trunk are closed. Triggers need to be lubricated periodically to prevent seizing and corrosion.
5. The shock sensor is installed in the passenger compartment, the center of the car can be considered ideal, it is attached to the metal of the body with self-tapping screws or glued.
6. Additional sensors are installed in locations that provide the best performance.
7. Contacts in places where ignition, starter, etc. circuits are broken. It is recommended to solder.

III. Connecting the system.

Budget Tomahawk alarms have limited autostart configuration options. Security systems in this price segment are purchased for cars that are simple in design, where special flexibility in settings is not required - but Tomahawk is both cheaper and easier to install yourself.

Setting up autorun Tomahawk TW-9010, TW-9020, TW-9030

These older alarms use the Override button (traditionally called Valet on other alarms) for programming. To enter the programming mode, press Override 6 times with the ignition off.
Next, turn on the ignition, the siren will confirm the transition to the settings menu with 6 beeps.
Select the appropriate function by pressing the Override button the number of times corresponding to the function number. After this, Tomahawk will report the number of the selected function in the form of a set of signals, where the short one is 1 and the long one is 5 (a series of two long and three short signals means that function 13 is selected). Next, by pressing the button on the key fob, the desired function value is set from 1 to 4, where 1 is the arming button, 2 is the autostart button, 3 is trunk opening and 4 is “crossed out speaker.”

The autostart operation of the Tomahawk TW-9010 concerns the following functions:

1. Engine operating time – 5,10,15 or 20 minutes. The default is 10 minutes, in winter it is better to increase this time.
2. Temperature for auto warm-up. Please note that it is measured by the alarm system in the cabin, and not by the engine. Setting options are from minus 5 to minus 30 degrees, the default is set to minus 10.
3. Starter cranking time: 0.8 s, 1.2 s, 1.8 s or 3 s. By default, the starter turns on for 0.8 seconds. When using tachometer control, the Tomahawk will automatically disengage the starter when it detects engine starting, so set the crank time to 3 seconds. With other control methods, on the first start attempt, the starter is always turned on for a specified time, and each subsequent start attempt lasts 0.2 s longer. In this case, it is prohibited to set the scrolling time to 3 seconds!
4. Engine control option. There are three options: 1 (default) – based on the voltage in the on-board network, 2 – based on the oil pressure warning lamp, 3 – based on the tachometer signal. Strive to use the third method, as it is the most accurate and safe for the starter. To correctly determine the start by tacho signal, the alarm needs to learn idle speed. To do this, when you turn on the ignition, press the Override button 9 times, then turn off the ignition, listen to 9 siren signals and start the engine. As soon as the engine speed drops to normal, press the Override button once until the beep sounds. If instead of a single signal the siren gives 4, this means that the selected tacho signal source is not recognized correctly and cannot be used by it.
5. duration of activation of additional channel 2, to which the immobilizer crawler is connected if necessary. Switching on options: 0.8 s, 10 s, 30 s or constant switching on for the entire autostart period. The choice depends on the operation of the immobilizer in a particular car: if the car stalls after working for some time, change the function value from the default 0.8 s to a longer time until you achieve normal operation.
6. control of the IGN 2 power cable and central locking during autostart. If your vehicle has two independent ignition switch circuits, you will need to use circuit IGN 2 and program it accordingly. In option 1, the IGN 2 circuit is turned on, the central locking does not lock at the time of autostart (more precisely, it retains the state at the time of autostart). In option 2, the IGN 2 circuit is disabled, as is the autostart control. In option 3, IGN 2 is used and an additional locking pulse is sent to the central locking system. In option 4, only the central locking control is activated.
7. delay between turning on the ignition and starter during autostart. Option 1 is a two-second delay for gasoline engines, option 2 is a 10-second delay for diesel engines with glow plugs.

For Tomahawk TW-9020 and TW-9030, the autorun settings menu is different.

1. Operating mode of the IGN 3 output (turns off when the starter is running/does not turn off when the starter is running/turns on for the entire time the starter is running/turns on before the starter).
2. Monitoring engine operation and starter activation time. In options 1 to 3, the alarm detects the engine starting based on the oil pressure lamp, the starter is turned on for 0.8, 1.2 or 2 s. In option 4, control is carried out using a tacho signal, the maximum scrolling time is 3.6 s. There is no voltage control in the network, as on the TW-9010.
3. Type of gearbox and mode of preparation for autostart. Option 1 – automatic transmission, no need for “soft neutral”. Option 2 – manual transmission and automatic program neutral, which is activated every time the handbrake is pulled while the engine is running. Options 3 and 4 are a “safe algorithm”, when after pulling the handbrake you must press and hold the disarm button until the sound signal sounds, and then press it again.
4. Engine type (1 – petrol, others – diesel).
5. Turbo timer operation (off/1 minute/3 minutes/6 minutes).
6. Warm-up time (5/10/15/20 minutes).
7. Periodic autostart interval (1 hour/2 hours/4 hours/24 hours).
8. Arming during auto start (active in option 1).
9. Control mode for headlights or turn signals during autostart (flash/on constantly/off/off).
10. Impulse to close the doors at the end of autostart (supplied in option 2-4).

Periodic autorun is enabled using the Override button. To enable autostart based on temperature, press the button 5 times with the ignition off; to enable daily autostart, press the button 4 times, then turn on the ignition. Now, using the Override button, you can turn on or off the selected autorun mode - after each press, Tomahawk will report the status with 1 signal (on) or two (off). To save the setting, turn off the ignition. If daily start is selected, then the car will automatically start and will start at the same time every day.

How to configure autostart on Tomahawk 10.1 alarm systems

This alarm system differs little from the previous series in terms of the setup principle: the procedure for entering the settings menu and further steps for selecting the desired function are similar to the TW-9010.
Functions 1 to 5 are absolutely identical. The differences go further:

• function 7 allows you to configure the Tomahawk to work on vehicles with a “Start-Stop” button (options 3 and 4);
• the difference between these options is in the functioning of the black and yellow wire: in option 3, the pulse is sent after several unsuccessful startup attempts, in option 4 - after each. The functioning of this wire is set according to the operating algorithm of the “Start-Stop” button in a particular car;
• function 17 now controls the central locking, and according to a modified algorithm. In option 1, additional central locking control is completely disabled; in option 2, only a locking pulse is given at the end of autostart. In option 3, on the contrary, the locking pulse is given only at the beginning of autostart, and in option 4 - both at the beginning and at the end.

Problems with autostart Tomahawk

Since the autostart algorithms for alarm systems of this brand have changed little since the time of the Tomahawk TW-9010 (minor differences are due primarily to the introduction of support for Start-Stop systems), the information regarding this system can be applied to newer ones.
On cars with a manual transmission, like other alarm systems with auto start, it will require the correct completion of the “software neutral” procedure. Moreover, here this procedure is set rigidly by the manufacturer and is not customizable by the user.

The soft neutral procedure includes:

1. Pull the handbrake with the engine running.
2. Press the autostart button on the key fob - after that, an indication of engine operation (a cloud near the exhaust pipe) will appear on its screen.
3. Remove the key from the ignition - if everything works correctly, the engine will not stall.
4. Get out of the car. When the door is closed, the engine will stop.

Compared to the common algorithm, where auto start is reserved immediately when the handbrake is pulled, this one is more complex. Often, users simply forget about the need for forced reservation with the button on the key fob or, on the contrary, do it before pulling out the handbrake.

In this regard, the automatic mode of the TW-9020 and TW-9030 is more convenient: you just need to pull the handbrake.

If, after correctly performing the backup in steps 1 and 2, the engine stalls and autostart does not work, then check the following:

• Does the alarm system “see” the handbrake being lifted? When it is pulled out and released, the corresponding indicator on the key fob screen lights up and goes out when the owner presses the button to check the alarm status.
• Does Tomahawk “see” the engine running? You need to know exactly how the alarm is connected. Monitoring engine operation by voltage (TW-9010) malfunctions when the generator malfunctions or the connection points of the power circuits are oxidized - in this case, the central unit will receive less voltage than is included in the algorithm as a sign of engine operation. When monitoring the oil pressure lamp, as a rule, there are no problems. If the alarm is configured to be monitored by a tacho signal, then try teaching the Tomahawk idle speed again, as described earlier.
• The last problem that can disrupt the operation of the program neutral is a malfunction of the driver's door switch. Without “seeing” the opening and closing of the door, the alarm will not complete “program neutral”.

If “software neutral” completes normally, but startup attempts are not successful, pay attention to the following points. First of all, this is the starter cranking time if the operation control is set by voltage or oil pressure lamp. In winter, when the cranking time is set to a minimum (0.8 s), the engine does not have time to catch, but the thickened oil already manages to extinguish the pressure lamp. The next time you try to start, the Tomahawk will “see” the engine running before the starter turns on, and will not make any further attempts to start.

Therefore, the optimal setting option for Tomahawk is control by tacho signal, with the starter cranking time set to maximum.

On cars with an immobilizer, check that the crawler is working correctly. To do this, just after turning off the ignition, simulate an exit by opening and closing the door, and then try to autostart by placing the key in the ignition. If the immobilizer is not “seen” by the crawler, then at that moment the standard key at the lock will “see”, and the start will occur without problems.

In the lineman, pay attention to the placement of the chip relative to the internal antenna (ensure maximum overlap of the chip antenna turns, it should be directed perpendicular to the turns), try changing the position of the response antenna relative to the transponder winding on the ignition switch. It is worth finding an installation card for your car on the Internet - perhaps for the crawler to work correctly, it should be connected not with an overhead antenna, but in a break in the standard wiring.

If the engine starts and immediately stalls, try increasing the crawler operating time in the alarm settings. On different cars, the immobilizer works differently and polls the chip both once after turning on the ignition, and periodically while the engine is running. If in this case the crawler is configured to turn on for a short time, then at the time of the second poll the immobilizer will no longer “see” the chip and will turn off the engine.
