Main functions of Starline A39

The Starline A39 2CAN+2LIN alarm system has an automatic engine start function, which can be controlled using a special application installed on a smartphone. This model also provides notification options and the ability to control the security complex through the use of a two-way communication channel. All information about the system status is displayed on the key fob display.

Description of the options that the alarm has:

  1. Locking the power unit using the main and additional relays.
  2. Protects multiple areas of the vehicle with impact controller as well as limit switches.
  3. Silent and sound arming of the car.
  4. Notifying the vehicle owner via a mobile application or remote control.
  5. Ability to control heating devices installed as standard. We are talking about pre-start heaters for diesel engines.
  6. Automatic arming of the car as a result of accidental shutdown of the protection.
  7. Ability to work with standard central locking when using the “Slave” mode.
  8. Activation of security by an impulse supplied from a shock sensor.
  9. Self-diagnosis of all components of the anti-theft system when turning the protection on and off. If faulty zones are detected, information about this is displayed on the communicator with a display.
  10. Possibility of additional use of P2 radio relay, as well as P3 code devices from the manufacturer Starline.
  11. Alarm protection against power failure. If this happens, the system will keep the engine locked so it will not be possible to start. In addition, the control unit is equipped with non-volatile memory, which stores all information about system activations in security mode.
  12. Possibility of additional installation of Starline M22 and M32 modules on vehicles equipped with a CAN interface.
  13. Availability of the “Anti-robbery” function. With its help, the user can activate the engine blocking if the car has been attacked. The power unit will automatically stop when the attacker leaves the crime scene and is at a safe distance from the car owner. This option can be activated secretly.
  14. Availability of the “Panic” function. With its help, the siren and optical devices of the car are activated upon command from the key fob. This will scare away possible criminals from the car.

Why is it necessary and what will happen if you don’t set the clock?

If you correctly program the communicator to remotely start the internal combustion engine using an alarm clock, then the engine will start at a specific time.

If the time indicators on the key fob are set incorrectly, this will lead to the fact that automatic start by time will not work correctly. Accordingly, if a trip is necessary, the engine will not be warmed up, which will lead to early wear of the starter mechanism as a result of high loads.

There will also be a problem with the alarm function used to remind you of an event.

Basic rules for installing a security system

To install the Starline A39 alarm system with automatic engine start of an old or new model, you need to take into account the recommendations:

  1. The microprocessor device is located hidden, in a place least exposed to high temperatures and humidity. The module must not be placed near the air ducts of the heating system. The unit is equipped with a built-in interior temperature sensor, so this arrangement may lead to incorrect readings.
  2. The antenna adapter module is placed as high as possible on the rear window or windshield. The distance between the transceiver and metal surfaces must be at least 5 cm. If the car is equipped with rain and light controllers, the adapter must be placed away from them. In addition, you cannot install the antenna module on the top of the glass if a tint film is applied there - this impairs the reception and transmission of signals.
  3. The alarm status LED is placed in a visible place in the cabin, near the windshield. Its location on the instrument panel is allowed.
  4. Before installing the system, you should connect all its elements separately from the car and connect them to the battery. This will ensure that the complex is in good working order before installing it on the machine.
  5. The siren is hidden in the engine compartment, in the driest place, not exposed to critically high temperatures. The horn of the device must be placed downwards, this will avoid the accumulation of moisture inside. The power supply line must be equipped with a 3 ampere safety device.
  6. The temperature controller is installed on the engine crankcase or any metal surface adjacent to the cylinder head. The device can be installed in the cooling system pipe. Do not install the sensor near the exhaust manifold, as this will lead to deformation of the regulator body due to exposure to high temperature.
  7. Wires are laid under the decorative lining of the interior. Electrical circuits must not be laid in places where moving mechanisms and components of the car are located.

Installation of the Starline A39 2CAN+2LIN anti-theft system is carried out on a car with a disconnected battery.

How to set up autostart by temperature, time, alarm clock from the key fob

ATTENTION! A completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption has been found! Don't believe me? An auto mechanic with 15 years of experience also didn’t believe it until he tried it. And now he saves 35,000 rubles a year on gasoline! Read more". Autostart from the vehicle's engine key fob can be performed remotely relative to the temperature indicator, time, alarm clock

Before setting up autorun using any of the three options, you must meet the following requirements:

Autostart from the vehicle's engine key fob can be done remotely based on temperature, time, and alarm clock. Before setting up autorun using any of the three options, you must meet the following requirements:

  • the gearshift handle (gearbox) must be in the neutral position - the gears are disabled;
  • the vehicle doors and hood should be closed;
  • turn off the ignition;
  • activate the car's handbrake.

Any model of the Starline security system is accompanied by detailed instructions that explain in detail how to use autostart. However, not everyone has the patience to study it from beginning to end. Therefore, we will answer which buttons to press to start the car engine remotely. After getting out of the car and closing the last door, we activate the alarm, and then carry out the following manipulations on the key fob to set the system to autostart from a distance:

  1. Press and hold button No. 1 for 3 seconds.
  2. Next, click on button No. 2.

Auto start on alarm clock

So, how to set up remote automatic start of a car engine using an alarm clock on the key fob. First you should check the current time on the alarm clock, and then follow the instructions:

  • we activate the function, which is indicated on the key fob display with a graphic image of a bell;
  • Having checked the current and set the required time, successively pressing buttons No. 3 and No. 1, move the cursor to the “dial” icon and activate auto-start on the alarm clock, which will be confirmed by a flash of dimensions;
  • confirmation of activation of autostart by alarm on the key fob appears in the appearance of two icons on the display - a bell and a dial, coupled with a sound signal.

» You can deactivate the function by hovering the cursor over the dial image and then pressing the key fob button No. 2. Two flashes of dimensions and the absence of a bell with a dial on the key fob screen are a signal that the function is disabled.

Autorun by time (timer)

As part of the answer to the question of how to enable auto-start of the engine from the security system key fob at a specific time (timer), we offer you the following instructions:

  • move the cursor to the “hourglass” icon by clicking successively on buttons No. 3 and No. 1;
  • A flash of dimensions, a sound signal on the key fob and the appearance of an hourglass icon on its display indicate that the function is turned on and the vehicle engine begins to warm up for the programmed time.

You can deactivate the function by hovering the cursor over the hourglass icon again and pressing button No. 2. A double flash of dimensions, a sound signal and the disappearance of the graphic image on the LCD screen of the key fob indicate that the function is disabled.

Autostart based on temperature indicators

From the autostart unit - key fob, you can also configure the remote start of the vehicle engine based on temperature indicators outside the car. The security system monitors the readings of a temperature sensor installed on the car's engine, and after activation, starts warming up the engine for a programmed period of time.

The option is enabled in the following order:

  • point the cursor at the “thermometer” icon and briefly press button No. 1, after which the dimensions will flash, a sound signal on the key fob and the current temperature value will appear for 4 seconds;
  • short presses on button No. 1 set the desired parameters (each press changes the temperature by 30 C);
  • Holding down button No. 1 for a long time until a sound signal activates the autostart mode based on the temperature outside the vehicle (two short beeps and the appearance of the “thermometer” icon on the display indicate activation of the function).

The option is deactivated using a standard action - move the cursor over the “thermometer” icon and press button No. 2. A double flash of the dimensions, a sound signal and the disappearance of the graphic icon on the key fob display confirm that the function is disabled.

How to install a Starline A39 car alarm?

Installation guide for the 2CAN+2LIN system produced by Starline:

  1. The battery is disconnected; to do this, the terminal clamp with the negative output must be disconnected from the battery in the engine compartment.
  2. A microprocessor device is being installed. It is recommended to install it behind the control combination, this will ensure the shortest possible length of wires. The module is fixed on a flat surface using plastic clamps or self-tapping screws.
  3. LED is installed.
  4. The temperature controller and siren are being installed under the hood.
  5. The antenna adapter is placed on the inner surface of the windshield or rear window.
  6. “Limit switches” are mounted on the hood, luggage compartment and doors.
  7. The -12 volt wire (“ground” or ground) must be connected to the car body; for this you can use any standard bolt. The use of self-tapping screws for fixing to the body is not allowed. A power cable with a cross-section of at least 6 mm2 is connected to the main block of the control unit.

Starline alarm system: auto start from key fob and automatically

The Starline autostart system provides an option for intelligent engine start, when the alarm system independently selects a frequency for communication between the main unit in the car and the key fob.

Thanks to such features, intercepting a security system signal is almost impossible. This is especially important in urban environments and conditions with high levels of radio interference.

Methods for starting a car’s internal combustion engine:

  • remote start (warming up the car before driving);
  • automatic start (periodic starting of the car engine at certain time intervals to maintain the temperature at a given value).

Remote autostart Starline

Before considering how to enable autorun on Starline, you need to pay attention to some features. To correctly configure autorun from the key fob, you must perform the following steps:

  • move the gearbox lever to the “neutral” position (all gears are disabled);
  • turn the key in the ignition and remove it from the lock (the car engine is turned off);
  • close the doors, trunk lid and hood of the car tightly;
  • turn on the parking brake (handbrake).

Fulfilling all these conditions allows you to start the car’s internal combustion engine remotely. Now let's move on to how to enable autostart on the Starline alarm system. First of all, to set the car in security mode with the “Starline autostart” function enabled, you must perform the following algorithm of actions:

  • stop the car moving without turning off the ignition (the car engine is running);
  • move the gear shift lever to the “neutral” position (gears are off);
  • put the car on the handbrake (parking brake on);
  • Press button “1” on the key fob and hold it for 3 seconds until a melodic sound signal appears;
  • turn the key in the ignition switch and remove it from the lock (the car engine does not stall);
  • when leaving the car, make sure that the doors, luggage compartment and hood are closed tightly;
  • if everything is done correctly, the alarm will turn off the engine and lock the car doors (security mode is on).

So, remote autostart on Starline is available with proper preparation of the car. Following the entire algorithm described above, the car can be started from the key fob in different ways:

  • the first method is to press button “1” and hold it for 3 seconds until a sound signal appears and quickly press button “3”;
  • the second method is to select the “START” icon and press button “2” (relevant for periodically warming up the engine in the winter).

Due to the actions taken with the key fob:

  • the alarm makes the first attempt to start the car engine;
  • if the car engine does not start on the first try, the alarm makes a second, third or fourth attempt (the starter operating time increases by 0.2 seconds each time);
  • if the car engine does not start after the fourth attempt, the key fob will sound four beeps;
  • if the engine starts, the “exhaust gases” icon will be displayed on the key fob display (this icon may differ on different Starline models) and the car’s dimensions will blink three times, accompanied by a siren signal;
  • warming up of the vehicle's internal combustion engine will be carried out in accordance with the time interval preset in the settings (5, 10, 15 minutes, etc.);
  • one minute before the end of the specified time period, the “r01” icon will appear on the key fob display. If the time is up, the alarm turns off the engine and the “exhaust gases” icon on the key fob display changes to the “r00” icon.

Autostart Starline by temperature

In the winter season, many motorists need to warm up their car at night. When setting up autostart based on temperature, it is necessary to take into account some points: the presence of a temperature sensor, the location of the sensor, etc.

The sequence of actions for turning on and off automatic start by temperature:

  • Having selected the icon with a thermometer and the inscription “START”, press button “2” on the key fob (after a sound signal, the value of the set temperature threshold is displayed on the display);
  • When you turn off autostart based on temperature, you need to select the thermometer icon on the display and press the “2” button on the key fob.

Once inside the car, you must turn on the ignition within 30 seconds, insert the key into the lock and turn it. To completely exit the autostart mode, you must release the handbrake, while the vehicle's dimensions will blink once, after which a sound signal will sound.

Model overview

The Starline A39 2can 2lin security and telematics system has several configuration options, differing not only in the year of manufacture, but also in some of the functions of the complex.

The basic version of 2 channel 2 line has all the necessary functions, including silent arming and disarming, turbo timer mode, remote engine start, as well as settings for almost all required parameters. The dialogue code can significantly reduce the risk of car theft, and a special lock using a PIN code protects the owner in case of loss of keys.

The advanced model 2can 2lin GSM with engine start function belongs to the same line, but has an additional module that allows remote control via SMS message or phone call. There is also a self-diagnosis system, and the owner receives notification of malfunctions on his mobile phone. The use of special radio interference protection guarantees an excellent signal even in urban environments.

However, the system has some disadvantages. For example, it practically never appears on the open market, and its installation can only be ordered from an authorized dealer. Owners complain about thin plastic keychains that break from small impacts. They also note that autostart does not work correctly at low temperatures. And for installation you will need to purchase special modules CN and VGK74 Q4 for full implementation of functions.

Pros and cons of a security system

List of main advantages of the Starline A39 alarm system:

  1. Availability of additional functionality that simplifies the use of the complex. This refers to autostart, pre-heating of the engine, etc.
  2. Versatility of the security system. Starline A39 can be used on passenger cars and SUVs with diesel or gasoline engines, regardless of the type of gearbox. Also, the use of the “signal signal” is possible on cars equipped with a Start/Stop button.
  3. The ability to independently adjust the sensitivity of the shock sensor.
  4. Availability of a control system via a mobile application or computer. To do this, the user must register in advance on the official Starline website.

Disadvantages of this Starline model:

  1. Complicated service manual. If the user is inexperienced and has never set up a car alarm, this task may be difficult.
  2. Fragile body of the communicator. If dropped, there is a possibility of damage to the device and its failure. To restore functionality, the communicator will need to be repaired.
  3. There may be malfunctions of the anti-theft system at low subzero temperatures. User reviews show that already at -20 degrees the system begins to function incorrectly.
  4. There are still defective copies on sale. In the first years of production of these systems, a large number of defects ended up on the shelves of auto stores. The manufacturer Starline recalled all such alarms from the market and replaced them under warranty. But there are stores where there are remnants of a defective batch of the A39 system. There is a high probability that they will not work correctly.
  5. To implement all functions, the user will need to additionally purchase and install the appropriate Starline modules.
  6. The package includes wires that are too thin and short. This leads to their rapid wear and the need for extension during installation.

Starline A39 2CAN+2LIN anti-theft systems are usually installed in car dealerships, so most of the functions and parameters remain unconfigured.

I use Starline a39 dialog turbo timer. Installed in the showroom of a Kia Serato. I didn’t really delve into the intricacies of the connection, since I trust professionals, and there is a guarantee for their work. The alarm performed well. It slows down a little in cold weather, but everything is fine. I've been using it for six months now. After installation at the car dealership, I encountered several problems. The second key fob did not want to be removed from the alarm. I went to the service center and it turns out I need to install a tag on it. The tag was installed, and another problem began - spontaneous activation. I went to the service center and they set it up. Now, when the handbrake is installed, auto start is set, which should not happen. In short, I'm already tired of going to the service center.
Excellent alarm, all functions work. What I like most is the engine heating and the ability to view it on my phone. It's also good that there is a PIN code and engine lock. Even if someone gets into the car, they still won’t be able to steal it. Terrible alarm and terrible service. When the A39 started to malfunction, I contacted the official call center, where my issue was not resolved. They sent it to the station where they installed it. But I bought the car second-hand in another city, and I don’t know where it was installed. Now you have to look for specialists yourself and pay money.
The alarm was purchased at a Renault service center. I immediately stuffed it with everything I could, because the installation is free only once. I bought a module for mobile communications (it turns out that a regular chip is inserted there, like on a phone). Now I can talk to my car on the phone))). I also asked to install window closers so that they would close on their own. Of course, I had to buy a few more things, but now it’s a complete set! It works very poorly in cold weather. It slows down and doesn't work. Autorun cannot be turned on exactly when it is needed most. I didn’t like the keychain at first, it was kind of flimsy in appearance and scary to hold in my hands. I shouldn’t have agreed to this signal.
I haven't been using it for long, about a month. Very satisfied. There are simply a huge number of functions, I didn’t even have time to try them all. It is convenient that there is auto start and a temperature sensor in the cabin. The battery charge also shows. I need this because I often leave my car under guard for a long time. The manual is very confusing, setting something up on your own is almost impossible.
One of the most reliable and modern Starline alarm systems. It has everything you need and even more. I think that I don’t use half of the functions at all. As for the work, it's excellent. Everything works, the car obeys perfectly. It’s good that there is an additional engine lock; you can sleep peacefully, knowing that your brand new car won’t be stolen. This alarm was sold to me when I bought a new car at the dealership. I agreed in a hurry, which I now regret very much. There is simply no signal. The key fob is inconvenient and eats batteries like crazy. Often triggered by loud sounds and passing cars. There is not a word in the manual about how to set up the shock sensor. On my previous car I had an old APS, and it was much better. And here there are a lot of bells and whistles, but no sense.

Let's sum it up

The steps and recommendations described above on how to enable autorun on Starline are almost the same for all models, but there may be slight differences. For this reason, it is recommended to study the manual for specific models separately.

Setting up autostart in Starline alarms is carried out by the installer himself: it is necessary to configure the algorithm according to how a particular alarm was connected; “training” of the correct idle signal is required. However, often the owner needs to change a number of initial setup parameters - increase the autostart time or set the timer. If any problems arise, we carry out the setup cycle again to make sure that this is not the reason why the car does not start with the key fob. It often happens that an alarm makes the task easier and indicates the Starline error code on the key fob.

As an example of configuration, let's take a common alarm model - StarLine A93. The configuration principles that are described for it are also suitable for other models of this company, and when understanding the principle of autostart operation, we will also understand the alarm systems of other companies.

Extending the antenna

The very first thing you need to start with if you want to strengthen the signal is to lengthen the antenna located in the car.

If an alarm without feedback is installed, then, most often, the unit will be located under the instrument panel. An antenna wire about 10 cm long comes out of this block, which needs to be extended.

For this you will need:

  1. Disassemble the dashboard and get to the block.
  2. Extend the existing antenna wiring with a piece of wire or similar wire up to 1-1.5 meters, wrapping the connection with electrical tape.
  3. Run the extended wire under the trim along the body or lay it in one of the racks.

The antenna for a closed-loop alarm is usually located on the windshield rather than under the dash. You can solder a more powerful antenna to it, for example, from WI-FI devices.

These methods will increase the reception range and avoid interference.

But the best option is to install a GSM antenna with a module. This way, the alarm can be controlled from any distance using codes entered into the phone, but the main thing is that there is mobile communication.
