General information

RAPTOR is unique device developed to protect your car

from theft. The device has an innovative mechanism of

engine locking that uses standard wiring of the car so
there is no additional wiring that can be easily found.
The locking is deactivated with the key fob or with the

secret code.

The device can not be found by any known means.
RAPTOR does not show itself until the engine is
started. Moreover, due to its small size the device can
be installed almost anywhere in the car.

RAPTOR is a new smart way to protect your car!

Benets of the system

• Digital locking of the engine without intervention
into the car control units and circuits.

• Smart locking of the engine based on the readings
data from car sensors and car status analysis.

• The device does not show itself until the engine lock

is activated.

• For unlocking use the key fob or the secret code that
can be entered with standard car pedals.

• Service mode provides safety of the car while it is in

maintenance.

OPERATION CONCEPT

Security deactivation

In order to start driving you should log into the system

via one of the following ways:

• use the key fob;

• enter the Emergency code specied under the

protection layer of the plastic card.

If the key fob is detected (Emergency code is entered

correctly), the system will signal with indication, the

engine will not be locked and you can start driving. If
the key fob was not detected (Emergency code incorrect
or was not entered at all), RAPTOR will lock the engine.

In some car models the system switches to the engine

start inhibit mode after the engine is shut off. In order
to unlock the engine you should switch on the ignition
without starting the engine (without pressing the brake

pedal), enter Emergency code and start the engine.

The locking method (engine start inhibit and/or running

engine stall) depends of the RAPTOR system settings

and the car brand/model.

The security system is activated in 10 seconds after the

ignition is off.

6

Authorization via key fob

It is enough to have the key fob to authorize in the

system.

ATTENTION!

Do not leave the key fob inside the

car when the ride is over. Otherwise the anti-theft

functions of the system will be deactivated.

Get into the car, switch ON the ignition. When the key
fob is detected, the system will give out two verication
signals (see the annex), after that you can start driving.

ATTENTION!

If the battery charge in the key fob is low,

the indication will signal 6 times after the ignition is

switched ON.

If the key fob is not detected, there will be no
verication signals and if one attempts to start driving
or switch ON the ignition, the engine will be locked
(see p.9).

In order to unlock the engine reset the power of the
key fob (take out and insert the battery) or enter the
Emergency code specied under the protection layer
on the plastic card. The Emergency code can be entered
in 5 seconds after the failed attempt to authorize in the

system or after switching off the ignition for 3 seconds
and starting the ignition again.

ATTENTION!

Do not leave the plastic card with the

Emergency code inside the car! Otherwise the anti­theft functions of the system will be deactivated.

7

Authorization via PIN-code

Get into the car, switch on the ignition and using
accelerator and brake pedals enter the Emergency code
specied on the plastic card under the protection layer:

1. Switch on the ignition without starting the engine.

2. Press the brake pedal and while keeping it pressed

press the accelerator* pedal a certain number of
times as far as it can go where the number is equal
to the rst digit in the Emergency code. Release
the brake pedal. The rst digit of the code will be

accepted.

3. Input the rest digits of the Emergency code in the

same way (see item 2).

When the Emergency code is correct, the system will

signal twice (see the annex), after that you can start

driving.

If the Emergency code is not correct, there will be no
verication signals and if one attempts to start driving
or start the engine, the engine will be locked (see
p.9). The second attempt to enter the secret code is
available in 5 seconds after the failed attempt to log

in or after switching off the ignition for 3 seconds and
starting the ignition again.

It is recommended to enter the Emergency code right

before the ride.

* For some car models other controls are used instead of accelerator pedal (see
the annex).

8

Service mode

The service mode is used for temporary deactivation
of the anti-theft device when you give your car for the
maintenance (without giving away the code and saying
about the device).

In order to switch on the service mode after the

authorization (the key fob was detected or the

Emergency code is entered) press the accelerator as far

as it can go 5 times*. The interval shall not be more than
2 seconds. When you press the accelerator last time
keep it pressed until the conrmation signal appear.
The activation of the service mode will be conrmed
by 5 indication signals*.

The service mode will be switched off when you enter
the Emergency code. The double indication signal will

show that the service mode is deactivated.

If the key fob is within RAPTOR detection range, press

the accelerator 4 times as far as it can go* to switch

off the service mode. When you press the accelerator
last time keep it pressed until the conrmation signal

appear.

After the deactivation of the service mode next time
the ignition is switched on or the engine is started you
will have to use the key fob or enter the Emergency

code.

* For some car models other controls are used instead of accelerator pedal (see
the annex).

9

Engine locking

The anti-theft system IGLA prevents the car theft by
stall of the running engine the engine start inhibit.

The method of locking is set automatically when the

device is connected to the car:

• for some car models only the engine start inhibit

is available;

• for some car models it is only possible to stall the

running engine;

• for others both methods are available.

In order to deactivate the engine start inhibit see the
item «Locking method selection», page 12.

Additional locking circuit is activated at the attempt of
driving without authorization, if there is no data on in
the CAN-bus that needed for the RAPTOR system or the
digital locking has failed. In other cases the activation
of the additional circuit is impossible.

The locking is deactivated:

• when the key fob is within RAPTOR detection range;

• when the Emergency code is entered after the

ignition was switched off for 3 seconds.

10

Device number check

This check is necessary to conrm the connection
between the plastic card with Emergency code and the
installed device. If the open code card number does not
match with the device, the Emergency code can not be
used to unlock the system.

It is recommended to do this check right after you get

the car with the installed anti-theft system RAPTOR
from the service centre.

1. Switch ON the ignition without starting the engine.

2. Press the pedal brake and while keeping it pressed
press the accelerator* pedal as far as it can go the

number of times where the number is equal to the
rst digit in the open card number (indicated on the
plastic card). Release the brake pedal. The rst digit
of the open code will be entered.

3. Input all of the rest digits in the same way (see item 2).

If the code number is correct, the system will signal
with 2 ashes. If nothing happens, that means the code
number was entered incorrectly or it does not match
with the device number.

* For some car models other controls are used instead of an accelerator pedal
(see the annex).

Additional modules for the standard functions of RAPTOR

CONTOUR – is a control module for the hood locks,
secures the under hood space when working together
with the RAPTOR system. Apart from the hood lock

control the system has an option for the control of the

additionally installed normally closed locking relay.

The hood lock closes in the following cases:

• The car security is activated (the central lock is closed)

• In 10 seconds after the ignition is off

The hood lock can not be closed if the hood is open.
The hood lock is unlocked after the authorization in the

RAPTOR system.

OBD BLOCK system is made to prevent the diagnostic

outlet OBD-II from the unauthorized access. The
system allows to prevent the tweaking of standard
software aimed to bypass the anti-theft system in
cases of unauthorized access to the diagnostic outlet.

17

TOR – digital CAN-bus relay aimed to provide complex
protection of your car with the RAPTOR system

installed.

TOR uses the additional locking circuit that is activated
in case the connection with the engine control unit
via CAN-bus is faulty or disrupted. Locking allows
to activate the Running engine stall option for cars
without digital locking of the running engine.
