Keychain instructions: functions, compatibility
The Tomahawk TZ 90 10 alarm system comes with two pagers.
- The main remote control has 5 control keys and is equipped with a liquid crystal display.
- Additional key fob - contains one diode for indication and 4 buttons responsible for basic functions.
Communicators operate at a frequency of 434 MHz with a transmitter intensity of 7-10 mW. The parameters ensure stable operation of the device. Also, due to the low power of the emitter, no special permission to use the frequency is required. Action in densely populated areas (metropolises) reaches 100 meters, which is impressive given the abundance of interference.
A negative quality is that both remote controls are programmed using standard FM modulation. The factor implies a possible interception of the impulse, but the anti-grabber system should prevent such a process.
Standard communicators control the basic functions of the anti-theft system.
- Enabling and deactivating the security mode when the siren is activated and without.
- Disabling the secondary immobilizer. The auxiliary option is a mandatory part of the kit. It can be disabled if desired by the user.
- Full control over the locks, regardless of the ignition position and engine operating mode.
- Step control of vehicle locking elements.
- Possibility of connecting secondary equipment to additional channels.
- Setting up and controlling remote start of the power plant. Full calibration takes a lot of time, but is worthwhile.
- The presence of a software neutral is preparation for remote starting of the internal combustion engine.
- Indication and control of device status.
- Display backlight. Available only for version with LSD screen.
- Independent control of door locks and cargo compartment lid.
- Possibility of searching for a car in a parking space (sending a signal to the horn and dimensions).
- Manual programming of head module options.
- Remote control of the sensitivity of shock sensor zones.
- Remote start of panic and anti-robbery modes.
- Remote activation of testing and service procedures.
- Calling the vehicle owner.
A wide range of settings and modes ensures full functioning of the alarm system and machine protection. The controls are extremely clear, the icons on the key fob are designed for intuitive perception. However, some elements require decoding. On the service you can see detailed photo instructions on how to use the controls.
It is noteworthy that most Tomahawk alarm designs have interchangeable key fobs. Tomahawk TZ 9010 version remote controls are 99% compatible with the SL-950 modification. Parts from the closest analogues are also conditionally compatible:
- TW 9000;
- TV 9010;
- LR 950;
- D-700;
- D 900;
- S-700.
Note! Available analogues do not provide 100% control over all security system options. To achieve the best results, you need to buy an original key.
Compatibility with models of competing brands is not monitored - as a rule, key fobs operate at different frequencies, which makes it impossible to connect them. For example, a factory device transmits signals over a 433 MHz channel. Another company has a frequency of 456 MHz. Both models will not be able to control each other's anti-theft devices.
Below are instructions for using keychains in photo form.
Installing programs on a new key fob
If there is a need to install programs on a new key fob, you must use a different algorithm of actions. The instructions for using the device contain information on how to set up a new key fob.
For this purpose, the car's ignition is turned on with the engine turned off. Next, press the Override button and hold it until 4 CHIRPS of the siren follow. After this, the key fob button is released.
At the next stage, you need to press the Open trunk button on the alarm. Silent security mode is pressed at the same time. The alarm buttons are held down until the car owner hears 5 CHIRPS of the siren. This will indicate that the tomahawk device has learned the new key fob. When a signal is received from the new key fob to the alarm system, you can safely start using it.

Features of Tomahawk key fobs
The main advantage of the system's key fobs is their full functionality. The remote controls provide the user with complete control over the device and allow you to set any operating mode.
An additional bonus is the complete interchangeability of the main and spare remote control.
Functional
Depending on the device model, the Tomahawk alarm remote control offers a complete list of options and commands. From here you can program or activate the options:
- security mode;
- arming and disarming;
- activation/disabling of the immobilizer;
- setting time, alarm clock.
Button meaning
Tomahawk key fobs have 4 to 5 buttons. Each key has its own meaning and function. At the same time, the exact meaning of the controls may vary, which is due to the difference in the functionality of the modifications.
Also, all keys can be used in combinations, which completely changes their functionality.
Meaning of pictograms
The situation is similar with pictograms. Each icon is responsible for indicating a specific mode, its activation and system state. The exact meaning of the pictures can be found in the alarm user manual.
How to determine the model
The appearance of the key fob will help the car enthusiast understand which model. All remote controls are rectangular in shape with a protruding antenna in a plastic case. Common features are common to all Tomahawk designs.
Among the distinctive features of the models are:
- antenna location;
- display size;
- position and appearance of buttons.
It is possible to understand exactly which alarm model the car owner is facing only by knowing all the differences and features of the remote controls. Compatibility of key fobs complicates the determination - some units are interchangeable.
The main difference is the markings on the back of the remote control, but the indices are quickly erased and are not applied to all remote controls.
Vibration mode
The Tomahawk TZ-9010 alarm system has three driver alert positions from the remote control:
- sound;
- signal + vibration;
- only vibration.
Now I'm interested in the option to turn off sound alerts on the key fob. In this position, the pager informs the driver by oscillating. Activation and deactivation of the function occurs manually by pressing the key combination F + the “key” button. After 3 seconds, the required mode is activated and the corresponding indicator appears on the display.
You can return everything to its place in the same way - hold down the F+ key and the system will beep when you turn off the silent mode.
Buttons and icons

Alarm system Tomahawk TZ 9010: how to set it to warm up according to time
The security system is equipped with the option of automatically warming up the internal combustion engine using a timer. This greatly facilitates the operation of the car when urgent trips are necessary in winter.
With correct programming, the car starts on its own and warms up the engine, then stalls, which allows you to reduce the time it takes to leave the parking lot. The problem of severe overcooling of the internal combustion engine and, as a consequence, antifreeze sticking in severe frosts is also eliminated.
The standard timed autostart setting allows you to set the frequency of engine activation (every 1, 2, 4 or 12 hours). It is also possible to autostart once a day. For example, the driver goes to the parking lot, and meanwhile the car warms up on its own.
The device remembers the command automatically and will perform the first activation immediately after programming is completed. You can see how to correctly set the required mode in the Tomahawk TZ 9010 manual.
Find out about all the Tomahawk 9010 alarm problems.
How to set temperature trigger
Automatic engine warming up at a given temperature allows you to maintain the internal combustion engine in the always-ready mode. The option minimizes the time it takes to leave the parking lot and provides the necessary operating comfort.
To enable the procedure to be activated, an additional sensor is installed under the hood. Otherwise, the device will be guided by the readings of the thermometer inside the cabin, which greatly increases fuel consumption.
Ease of use is due to the ability to set the minimum temperature of the internal combustion engine, which activates automatic heating, and the limit value when the ignition is turned off.
The complete process of enabling the mode and setting parameters can be found in the corresponding section of the factory instructions.
How to check engine temperature
It is not possible to physically see the engine temperature on the Tomahawk TZ 9010 key fob - the option is not provided by the manufacturer. However, if the system is improved, this is possible.
- Parallel installation of a temperature sensor on the front hood position limit switch. The procedure increases the risk of false alarms of the security system, so it is rarely practiced. The changing pulse misleads the processor unit, which the latter perceives as a hacking attempt.
- Installation of the second element on the alarm antenna line. A more complex sequence that requires experience and knowledge.
To power the thermometer from the transmitter unit, a cable is connected to the second one (to the blue breaker). Then the wire is brought out under the hood and the sensor itself is attached to it. The sensor, in turn, is mounted on the cooling pipe or the internal combustion engine block.
To view, you need to hold down the key marked “open hood” and the temperature of the engine compartment will be displayed in the clock field.
Experienced car enthusiasts recommend installing additional resistance in front of the thermistor to regulate the autostart activation temperature.

Autorun doesn't work
Problems with automatic functions are possible with any electronic equipment, and the device described is no exception. The Tomahawk TZ 9010 alarm system is not set to autostart for several reasons.
- Discharge or wear of the battery. When starting the engine remotely, more starting current is required than during a similar procedure using a key.
- Damage to sensors, relays or indicators. For successful operation, the system requires the functionality of all sensors.
- Autorun programming was performed incorrectly. The driver himself is to blame here - for the correct functioning of the system, you must strictly adhere to the instructions.
- Broken cables and important highways. A short circuit or signal failure may occur.
- Oxidation of contacts. The appearance of rust greatly reduces the sensitivity of the on-board circuit.
- Software glitch.
- One of the blocks is acting up - often a temperature sensor or an activating unit (tachometer, starter, oil pressure).
Problems can only be resolved after diagnosing the device - the main elements are checked:
- battery charge and condition;
- terminal connections;
- wiring;
- integrity of blocks and sensors.
If all components are working properly, it is recommended to perform a full reset to factory settings.

The Tomahawk TW 9010 car alarm with auto start can support work with 4 pagers. This also applies to the TZ 9010 model. Setting up one or all remote controls for these anti-theft systems can be done in several stages in different ways. The first option in accordance with the operating instructions is as follows.
- You must turn the ignition key to put it in the on position. The car engine should not be running, that is, it should be turned off.
- After this, you need to press the OVERRIDE service mode button and hold until 4 siren signals sound. This will indicate that you can begin setting up your communicator.
- Then you need to release the service mode button.
- After this, you need to press and simultaneously hold down the keys marked “open trunk” and “activate silent security” until a signal sounds that would confirm the installation of a new remote control in the system (one-time beep for the 1st key fob pager, two for the 2nd and etc.). Such a video can always be viewed on some automotive resources.
- If you do not perform any actions with any of the remote controls for 6 seconds, the setup will stop after that in automatic mode.
All communicators that have not been activated will be deleted from the system.
If the first method of programming the remote control for the TZ 9010 did not help solve the problem, then you can use another option.
- The ignition must be turned to the on position, but the vehicle engine must not be running.
- With one hand we press the Valet service mode button, and with the other we simultaneously click on the keys marked “activate silent security” and “open the trunk”.
- Then you need to wait until the siren sounds five times.
- At this stage, you should simultaneously press the “on” buttons. silent security”, “trunk opening” and a service mode key.
- After that, press the keys with the icons for “activating silent security” and “opening the trunk.” If the actions were performed correctly, the car’s turn signals will blink several times.
- Further manipulations are performed similarly to the first programming method.
DIY connection
Connecting the alarm is quite simple. The design of the device does not have complex modules and blocks, which allows you to install the unit yourself.
The main rule is to strictly follow the factory instructions. If the rules are not followed, there is a possibility of an error that will provide incorrect functionality.
The key factor is the installation of the Valet service button. It should be hidden as much as possible in a place accessible in an emergency.
Binding
The initial binding of remote controls on a new device occurs in the standard sequence described above.
Registration and configuration of the remote control without the Valet button
If you don’t have access to the Valet button, you can register the key fob as follows:
- turn on the ignition;
- click on Override 7 times;
- press the required combination on the pager;
- wait until you exit programming mode.
Sensitivity Setting
The standard shock sensor is a separate unit connected to the main unit. The two-level system is attached inside the machine using screws or glue.
Important! The accuracy of the sensor operation depends on the reliability of installation.
The device is calibrated to avoid false alarms. Some users “crank” the regulators so that the alarm starts to “squeal” even when a pigeon lands on the roof of the car.
Adjusting the sensitivity of the system is not difficult. To do this you will need to follow a simple sequence of steps.
- Attach the block to the body panel.
- Completely coarse the sensor - rotate the regulator counterclockwise until it stops (-).
- Smoothly tighten the screws (+) while simultaneously tapping the outside of the machine in different places.
- When the required result is achieved, calibration must be stopped immediately.

Car alarm is buggy
During the operation of the device, there are moments of false alarms or malfunctions that interfere with the motorist. The Tomahawk TZ 9010 alarm system is a simple design that is not difficult to maintain. The minimum number of blocks ensures high reliability of the anti-theft system. Therefore, figuring out the reason for refusal or incorrect behavior will not be difficult. If the remote start suddenly disappears or the key fob does not see the car running, you should pay attention to the main elements.
- Condition of the antenna and sensors.
- The functionality of the battery on the remote control.
- Car battery charge.
- Integrity of related wiring.
If all components are in working order, you can reset the settings to the factory state.
Tomahawk TZ 9010 alarm key fob does not transmit signal
In cases where the Tomahawk TZ 9010 alarm does not respond to the key fob, the reasons may be several factors:
- the main antenna is damaged;
- The batteries on the remote control are low;
- there was deformation or impact on the pager body.
When the batteries wear out, it is enough to replace them and the system will work. If there is damage to the remote control or antenna, the entire unit must be replaced.
The LED built into the antenna unit does not light up
If the antenna light diode does not work on the Tomahawk TZ 9010 alarm system, the reasons may be problems in the element itself or in auxiliary devices.
- The diode itself or its resistance has burned out. In this case, it is enough to re-solder the part.
- The driver responsible for the display is damaged. Repairs are carried out similarly, with a more complex replacement process.
- Internal failure of the control unit.
Reset to factory settings
The user manual contains a complete description of the procedure for resetting the Tomahawk TZ 9010 alarm. The answer to the question of how to reset the settings is hidden in the booklet supplied in the kit.
The procedure involves a complete rollback of the modules, and all possible failures will be eliminated. You will also need to re-enter all remote controls.
- With the ignition on, click the OERRIDE button 10 times in a row.
- Remove the key from the lock - the control unit will display the corresponding number of teals.
- Then, by analogy, click once on the above button.
- Using the key fob, activate and deactivate the alarm from the remote control.
- Ignition on/off
After completing the procedure, the system will be completely reset - errors will be eliminated.
Key fob programming
At the user's request, additional control panels can be used, which need to be programmed and stored in the memory of the base unit.
The “signaling” model Tomahawk 9010 can be controlled by four key fobs. When you try to record the fifth one, the first remote control is deleted from memory.
Programming procedure:
- Disable security, insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the “On” position (the starter does not need to be turned on).
- Press the service button and hold it until the standard siren sounds four short signals. Signaling indicates the activation of the key fob programming mode.
- Release the key.
- Press and hold the KN03 and KN04 keys simultaneously on the new remote control. The recording of the remote control will be confirmed by a short beep from the siren. Depending on the number of the key fob in the memory, a different number of sound signals (from one to four) is given.
- If there is no signal from the remote control within six seconds, the system exits programming automatically. The user should remember that key fobs that are not reprogrammed will be deleted from memory. That is, when recording one new remote control, you need to enter all existing ones into memory.
