Description

The Scher-Khan Magicar 8 car security alarm is an intelligent system for protecting a passenger car from attacks by intruders. Updated in 2011, the device gained several additional features, and legacy components were modernized. Thus, Scher-Khan Magicar 8 uses a signal encryption algorithm called MAGIC CODE™ PRO 2

. It provides protection against electronic hacking and scanning, as it is encoded and transmitted using its own frequency, which cannot be intercepted by any existing method.

The range of signal reception and transmission from the key fob to the central unit is 2000 meters

.
The system works reliably even in noisy radio conditions in big cities. Scher-Khan Magicar 8 is one of the few alarm systems on the market whose key fob is capable of controlling the alarm of another car, provided that it also has Scher-Khan Magicar 8 . Very convenient if you use two cars.

High quality transceiver

Thanks to the use of a technologically advanced transceiver, the central unit of the Scher-Khan Magicar 8 transmits alerts to the key fob over a distance of up to 2000 meters.

Immobilizer mode.

By enabling this function, the engine will be blocked after some time, even if you did not set the car alarm.

Dialogue protection MAGIC CODE™ PRO 2

Advanced dialogue security system MAGIC CODE™ PRO 2

protects against electronic hacking. When encrypting, block-stream coding is used, which operates at its own frequency, protected from scanning by special hacking devices.

You need to look at what kind of signaling 8 or 8s you need on the signaling unit itself, on its reverse side, where the name of the signaling device and the connectors are all labeled.

If the LED does not blink blue, then start from step 1 6) While the LED is blinking, tap the call sensor the number of times corresponding to the first digit of the code. After 1.5 sec. the LED will confirm the selected digit with blue flashes and start flashing again 7) While the LED is flashing, tap the call sensor the number of times corresponding to the second digit of the code.

Car alarm Scher-Khan Magicar 8 is a modern security system for installation on passenger and cargo vehicles, minivans, and commercial vans.

Alarm Sherkhan 9, also known as Magicar 9, has been on the market since 2008. The system in question is equipped with the ability to autostart, and also has a turbo timer. True, the turbo timer works on the principle of “turn on the ignition after turning it off,” which is typical for many budget-class security systems.

When laying the wire from the antenna unit to the processor unit, be careful not to crush the wire with panels or upholstery fasteners.

If you hear 4 chirps and the side lights flash 4 times, this means that one of the security zones is activated during security.

Within 4 seconds, turn the ignition key three times from the OFF position to the ON position and turn off the ignition. The hazard warning light will flash once to confirm the first step has been completed.

Using any key fob, the “hands-free” mode is activated, and the system automatically activates security when moving away from the car. In this case, disarming is also performed automatically. The signaling system of the model in question also controls the central locking, and the presence of a “comfort” mode is also provided.

Alarm system Scher-khan Magicar 8 with auto engine start

Shere Khan is considered a top-level car security system. It is multifunctional, versatile, and most importantly, extremely reliable. The keychain doesn't seem to be much different from the others, but its design is excellent. The connection diagram is not complicated, if you have dealt with installing other alarms, then there will be no problems.

No later than 4 seconds after the emergency flash of the alarm, press button I of the Key Fob, the code of which must be entered into the memory of the processor unit. With an interval of no more than 4 seconds, you can press the I buttons of three key fobs, then the system will remember their codes.

And using the energy saving mode “Battery Save Mode” you can increase the life of the key fob batteries by almost 3 times.

In min. loot to put Pandora DXL 4300, gsm whitefish with autostart + wireless tags from DXL 3900. Money will come out 8k + installation 4k. Officials in NG.

Linking the key fob to the Sherkhan alarm system

The programming method for Mobicar 12, 13, 14 car alarm key fobs is carried out using a PIN code and consists of the following points.

1. Disable security mode and press the “Call Owner” button for two seconds.
2. After the alarm lights go off, release the key. Press it again. This must be done within five seconds. The turning lights will light up again and the control LED will start flashing quickly.
3. Enter the first code value using the call key. The action must be completed within 4 seconds. after the LED starts flickering. A single flash of the turning lights and a quick flash of the LED will confirm that the entry is correct.
4. Enter the remaining numbers. After entering all the numbers, the turn signals will blink twice. After 5 sec. the diode will operate in constant mode.
5. You have five seconds to double press the K-IV key on the remote you are configuring. You must press quickly, within one second. This will be followed by a flash of emergency lights.
6. In the same way, add the remaining key rings to memory. After registering the third device, the system will automatically exit programming.

Sensitivity adjustment

The display of the main key fob shown in the photo can display alarm messages. Its design includes a sound module, as well as a vibration alert. It is interesting that the system can select the operating period of the turbo timer automatically. According to the instructions, to do this, connect the cord from connector CN4 to the tachometer, and then you need to perform the programming correctly.

This product is available to almost everyone. You can separately purchase a key fob with an LCD display for 1.2-1.4 thousand rubles. They are also sold separately with removable covers. Their cost is about 300 rubles. They help protect the remote control from scratches. The availability of additional elements of the presented alarm system allows each car owner to update his security system if necessary.

The car alarm is equipped with the function of controlling a second car. The key fob communicator can be used to independently control either the main or the second car, provided that the SCHER-KHAN MAGICAR 8 system is also installed on it. This is relevant, for example, when one driver has to drive two cars.

This product is available to almost everyone. You can separately purchase a key fob with an LCD display for 1.2-1.4 thousand rubles. They are also sold separately with removable covers. Their cost is about 300 rubles. They help protect the remote control from scratches. The availability of additional elements of the presented alarm system allows each car owner to update his security system if necessary.

To enhance control over the car, SCHER-KHAN MAGICAR 8 is equipped with a function for synchronizing the readings of all key fobs recorded in the system memory. And she is able to remember the codes of three key fobs. Thus, every action performed by one of the two additional key fobs is synchronously reflected on the main key fob communicator.

One of the highlights is the “second car control” function. The main key fob can control the main or additional car. This condition can be met if the same alarm system is installed on an additional vehicle. This is a practical way if one person has several cars.

Firmware and reprogramming of the old key fob

During operation, a Vegas, Magicar 7, 8, 9 or other model car alarm may malfunction. Most often this happens for the following reasons.

1. The new remote controls were linked, during which the codes of the old ones were deleted from the memory of the security system.
2. The alarm cannot detect the key fob in which the working power source is installed.
3. Damage to the screen - it is impossible to properly use all functions of the anti-theft system.
4. Switch circuit board operation failure.
5. Inconsistency in the operation of the transceiver and transceiver.

You can reflash a used alarm key fob by repeating the following steps.

1. Turn on the ignition, deactivate the security protection. On the key fob with the antenna module, press the “Call the owner from the car” button for 2 seconds. The lights will blink twice.
2. Within five seconds, click on the “call owner” button. If no password is used, the alarm light will blink twice. When using the code - once.
3. If a PIN is applicable, enter it. The number is the number of clicks on “Call owner”. The correct number entry will be confirmed by the lighting devices flashing 1 time.
4. After 4 s, the LED will turn blue, confirming entry into programming.
5. Within five seconds, press key 1 on the remote control. The headlights will light up once. Then you can register other pagers.

Instructions for Mobicar models

Recording a personal code PIN 2: 1) Disarm the system 2) Open the door and leave it open 3) Turn on the ignition. There is no need to start the engine 4) Tap the call sensor 10 times. Each time the LED in the sensor will flash red.

The key fob has a two-way communication system, excellent design and high ergonomics. The body is varnished and made of high-quality anti-shock plastic.

The main differences between Scher-Khan Magicar 8 and Magicar 8S:

• powerful security potential;
• preset alarm functions;
• parking timer;
• adaptation to climatic temperature changes;
• 60 month manufacturer's warranty;
• developed network of branded salons;
• constant support and advice from specialists by phone.

Use only high-quality batteries. The use of a low-quality battery can lead not only to a reduction in the service life of the key fob, but also to its damage.

2. In a period of five seconds. Press "Jack" once. The LED will flash quickly and the alarm will light up once.
3. Within four seconds, click Valet as many times as the value of the first digit of the code corresponds to. After 4 seconds, the emergency light will flash once, indicating that the first number was entered correctly. The LED should flash quickly.
4. Repeat the previous step for the remaining code numbers. The PIN can contain from two to four digits.
5. After 5 sec. From the moment you entered the last value, the LED will light continuously. You can now enter remote control codes.
6. Within 5 seconds, press key 1 of the first device. The hazard lights will light up once to confirm the recording. Next, enter the code for the second and third remotes. To confirm correct entry, the alarm will light up once. Once you enter the value of the third remote control, the warning lights will flash twice and the system will exit recording.

To exit programming mode, do nothing for four seconds. The hazard warning light will light up once. The system will switch to “Valet” mode.

The engine started, but it doesn’t show on the key fob

The shock sensor should be mounted on a hard surface. Do not install the shock sensor on plastic panels. Their thermal deformation when heating or cooling can lead to false alarms of the sensor. The shock sensor sensitivity control should be easily accessible to the user. Do not set the Standby Mode if anyone is inside. It is very dangerous to use the system if one of the door buttons does not work well.

To begin programming, the system must be disarmed using the key fob or ignition switch PIN1 or using the call sensor PIN2. Also, the “Hands Free” function must be turned off on the key fob being recorded.

Ahahah. And who are you, exactly? To talk so wildly about the advantages and disadvantages of security systems.

Installing an owner call sensor

The Sherkhan Magikar 5 signal has a lot of advantages. High technology and ease of operation make it in demand. Experts say that when installed correctly, this system has a high level of reliability. All its sensors have a special protection class. The antenna and processor are also completely protected from unauthorized access to the software.

If the accelerometer of the control unit detects a sharp deceleration of the car (more than 20 km/h per second), it turns on the car's hazard warning lights. This allows other road users to react to the situation and take measures to prevent an accident.

Press button (II) for 2 seconds to automatically start the engine from the automatic transmission. After receiving a signal from the remote control, the system will issue a confirmation chirp. To drive a car, you need to disarm the car with the button (I), insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the ON position within 20 seconds after opening the door.

Multifunctional, versatile, reliable, and most importantly, it is the embodiment of care for the user. The stunning design of the keychain will not leave anyone indifferent.

Equipment and price

System overview by model range

First of all, you need to insert the battery into the remote control. It comes complete with a keychain. After installation, you can turn on the remote control. It has 4 buttons and a display. The set of functions includes vibration alert and automatic backlight. The screen displays information about the state of charge of the battery and temperature indicators inside the car.

Alarms in this series have low power consumption, allowing the use of one AAA battery for 4 months.

You will find the list here in your user manual. When making a purchase, check both the completeness and integrity of the wire insulation. The latter is important, since used goods show various damage: shortened wires, scratches, etc. Good luck with your choice!

The auto engine start function is available in such models as Magicar 7S, Magicar 7H, Logicar 3i, Logicar 4i, Logicar 5i, Mobicar 11, Mobicar A v. 1.0 and Mobicar A v. 2.0.

Advantages and disadvantages

Alarm connection

They are equipped with a GPS module that transmits the location of the car and records the car’s movements, saving the log on a remote server. This will prevent intruders from escaping, but will allow them to move to a distance that is safe for the owner.

We need help from knowledgeable people or those who have encountered this car alarm. I have a Scher-Khan Magicar 8 alarm system, installed by the previous owner.

If precautions are not observed, the manufacturer is not responsible for possible consequences (damage to the vehicle, disruption of standard electrical equipment, etc.).

Functions

The security system reliably protects the car from intruders. It is possible to arm the car in delayed mode. The developers have provided that the alarm can be turned on in hidden mode. In this case, the system does not make sounds and there is no light signal.

Advantages and disadvantages

The Scher-Khan Magicar 8 security alarm responds to a signal at a distance of 2 km. By purchasing a security system, the car owner will have the opportunity to arm a second vehicle. The key fob operates in energy-saving mode; it is possible to synchronize several such devices.

The system is distinguished by a long warranty service for up to 5 years.

Its disadvantages include the fact that at low temperatures it can function intermittently. Compared to the 8S, the functionality of Magikar 8 looks outdated.

If you read the reviews of the owners, it will become clear that with self-installation there may be difficulties with the correct connection of the elements of the security system, so the work should be carried out strictly according to the instructions.

Autostart based on temperature and voltage

The choice is made by installing jumpers. A table with car models, where the corresponding numbers are indicated, is printed on the body of the main module.

The Mazda had a Sherkhan alarm system. Instead of the declared 2,000 meters, the operating range did not exceed 500 meters. Otherwise there are no questions, everything worked well and did not break. I recommend.

The key fob must be linked to the system. The delivery package may also include additional key fobs. They also need to be registered in the program memory. Moreover, this procedure is performed simultaneously for all remote controls. You can rewrite if necessary.

User manual

Before starting work, you need to study the instructions for using Magicar 8; the operating instructions are included in the kit by the manufacturer. After this, you should activate the key fob. The instructions describe in detail how to do this, there is a detailed explanation for “dummies”.

The manufacturer installs a special insulation gasket between the contact plate and the battery. This is done to ensure that the Sherhan battery does not become discharged during transportation before the Magikar system begins operation.

The gasket is removed. To do this, move the latch to the side, blocking the cover of the battery compartment. The cover is pressed, moving it to the side opposite the antenna.

The battery is removed and then the insulating gasket is removed. It is located between the current collector plate and the battery. After this, the battery is put back.

Polarity must be observed; the location of plus and minus can be seen at the bottom of the compartment. If there is no signature, then the negative terminal is installed towards the antenna. After completing the work, close the lid and the keychain can be used.

Is there autorun and how to enable it

When choosing the eighth version, you need to take into account that it does not have automatic autostart Sherkhan. If you need it, it is better to purchase the seventh version. With its help, you can connect autostart, and then start the engine by pressing a button.

The function is useful because you can turn on the engine from a distance, for example from home.

How to install

The installation instructions suggest following the following sequence of actions during installation:

1. It is prohibited to place the head unit behind the dashboard; install the unit in the engine compartment.
2. Glue the antenna module onto the tape. The device is located on the glass at a distance of at least 50 mm from metal parts.
3. Mount the LED indicator with the adjustment button on the lower edge of the glass.
4. The siren is located in the engine compartment, which ensures increased operating volume. The unit is located at a distance from heated or moving structural elements.
5. Install the hood and trunk lid position sensors.
6. Place an impact force detection sensor in the passenger compartment. The device body is placed openly, which allows you to set the first and second sensitivity zones during adjustment.
7. If an additional sensor is used in the design of the complex, then the element is placed in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.
8. After installing the Sherkhan alarm, you will lay the patch cables yourself. The cords are laid under decorative linings; it is prohibited to bend the routes at right angles and to press the insulators against sharp edges.

How to turn on the key fob

The power supply for the additional alarm remote control Magicar A, C, 5, 6 Mini lasts for 6-8 months. The switch simply stops working after this time. How to properly replace the battery without damaging the key fob:

1. Use a small Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the screw.
2. Very carefully open the internal latches around the perimeter of the case.
3. Replace old batteries, observing correct polarity.
4. Reassemble the keychain in reverse order. If necessary, write it down, adhering to the points from the previously given instructions.

The Sherkhan Logicar 1 alarm system is equipped with a 2-way communication channel with support for remote engine start. To increase security, an original algorithm for encoding control commands was used. The liquid crystal display of the communicator displays the current operating status of the complex; the design of the remote control includes a buzzer and a vibration informant.

How to set up a MOBICAR car alarm

The MOBICAR system implements modern developments in the field of car theft protection. The package includes a small-sized control key fob, digital shock sensors, and a small processor unit. It is not difficult to understand the setup, despite the huge number of integrated functions.

Among the main functions that need to be configured, the MOBICAR car alarm includes:

• car autostart;
• setting automatic alarm activation;
• sensitivity adjustment;
• turning the shock sensor on and off.

The first thing you should learn is to start and turn off the car using the key fob. This is a convenient feature that allows you to warm up the machine in winter while you leave the house. Or turn off the engine if you are stuck in the store forever, so as not to overheat the vehicle.

Setting up engine autostart

You can start the engine remotely from the key fob only in security mode. For vehicles with a manual transmission, you need to prepare for launch, for this:

1. With the engine running and the doors closed, the parking brake also applied and the brake pedal lowered, press key III on the key fob.
2. If the car has an ignition switch, then the key must be removed under the above criteria. If there is a Start/Stop key, you do not need to press it.
3. After completing the manipulations, exit the machine and press the security key (briefly press the I key).

To autostart Scher-Khan on this alarm model, you need to press the following keys:

1. Long press on “III”, while the image of smoke will appear on the key fob, which means starting the engine.
2. The countdown of the autorun time will begin; to reboot it, briefly press the same key.
3. To turn off the mode, hold III on the key fob until a beep sounds.

You can set the autostart time manually, and also select the mode to turn off the motor at a given temperature. For this:

When setting the warm-up time, you need to take into account the climate mode, you can also select the functions of morning and evening autostart. With such ordinary manipulations with the key fob, you can set any car to autostart. Do not forget that with a manual transmission you need to carry out preparatory training according to the instructions described just above.

Transition to car control after autostart

After starting the engine remotely, you should take control of the car into your own hands when you get to it. For this:

• press the brake pedal;
• disengage the standing brake;
• remove the automatic transmission from parking mode.

With all this, you don’t need to press anything on the key fob. After performing one of the listed manipulations, you will hear a sound signal and one blink of the headlights, which indicates that autostart is turned off.

Possible errors when enabling the autorun function

If you do not make conditions for enabling autorun, the system will produce a number of errors that need to be removed. Among all the codes on the key fob there are:

• ER:01 – the engine is on, you need to turn off the machine to continue the options;
• 02 – ignition on: turn off and remove the key to continue working with the alarm;
• 03 – the door is open. When the doors are unlocked, the security mode is not activated;
• 04 – hood open;
• 05 – not set to autostart due to lack of preparation in cars with manual transmission;
• 06 – standing brake is not engaged;
• 07 – brake pedal pressed;
• 08 – the motor does not work, it is necessary to start the motor and continue the options;
• 09 – trunk open;
• 10 – the ignition is set incorrectly;
• 11 – 19 – there was an alarm.

If autostart of the car from the key fob does not work, check for these errors, and also check that the alarm itself is installed correctly. The initial setup and installation should be carried out by a specialist car service center in order to avoid disastrous consequences with the failure of the device.

Fundamentally! To correctly and quickly set the autostart time or set up an alarm, carefully study the instruction manual, which carefully describes all the functions of the device.
