1. Introduction About the Security System The Sigma S-Series security systems build on the features of previous Sigma models and offer the highest level of security, convenience and flexibility. Operated correctly, this Sigma security system will protect your vehicle against today’s sophisticated thief, however this security system is designed as a deterrent against the theft of, or from a vehicle, and as such cannot offer any guarantee against such occurrences.
Parts included in your Sigma Vehicle Security System • Certificate of Installation. When completed correctly by your installing dealer this certificate may entitle you to a discount on your vehicle insurance premium (applies to most major insurance companies). • Electronic Control Unit. The security system’s ECU is concealed within the vehicle and connected to the various points, forming the “brain”...
Programmable Features* The security system is microprocessor controlled and this enables you to benefit from a number of enhanced user-friendly convenience and security features. If you wish to have any of these enabled, consult your dealer. These include: • Auto-Arm can automatically arm the security system a timed period after the last door is closed, if the system is accidently left disarmed.
2. Basic Operation of the Security System Arming the Security System • Vacate the vehicle closing all windows, doors, boot and bonnet. • Briefly press and release the Radio Key button, whilst standing near the vehicle. • The security system will acknowledge arming by illuminating the vehicle’s hazard warning lights for a 3 second period (if the hazard lights flash 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 times at this point this indicates that certain sensors have been deleted - see page 9).
• After the first 32 seconds a short bright red flash from the dashboard LED every second indicates that the system is now fully armed and the Ultrasonic Sensors are set to their pre-programmed maximum or their automatically reduced level if some “background”...

Starting the Vehicle – S30 & S34 Models with Key Theft Protection With the Key Theft Protection feature selected, only the alarm system is armed and disarmed by the Radio Keys (or Touch Keys, Keypad or Ignition PIN entries). The immobilisation circuit(s) act independently of the alarm, setting automatically a pre- set time (the Stall &...
If the Security System is Triggered If the security system is triggered, the hazard lights will flash and the siren will sound at full power for approximately 30 seconds, after which the hazard lights and siren will stop and the security system will immediately re-arm ready for any further attack. The security system has an anti-nuisance feature, known as the Shut Down Count which allows each protected circuit to only trigger 10 times (the Shut Down Count) in any armed period, after which the circuit causing the continual trigger will shut...
3. Operation of Programmable Features (if selected and/or installed by your dealer) Auto-Arm Auto-Arm automatically arms the security system if the vehicle is accidentally left unarmed. The security system will automatically arm a pre-set time (the Auto-Arm Time; usually 60 seconds) after the ignition has been switched off, the vehicle vacated, and the last door, boot or bonnet has been closed.
The trigger will continue for ten 30 second cycles, after this the circuit causing the trigger will be ignored by the security system (to conform with noise abatement laws) and is no longer protected. Note: One door left open in this way may affect the protection on all other doors, depending on the make and model of vehicle.
Safety Lock/Unlock* Many Police forces now recommend that you lock your vehicle’s doors whilst driving, Safety Lock/Unlock prevents you from having to remember to do so and is available if the door locking facility is included with your system. If all the doors, bonnet and boot are closed and you turn on the vehicle’s ignition all the doors and boot will lock.
Total Open/Boot Release* The Total Open/Boot Release output can be programmed to operate in one of two ways: 1. “Timed”: The “Timed” method of operation is not ideal for most applications as it always attempts to open the vehicle’s windows/sunroof or boot every time the system is disarmed.
4. Radio Keys Your Sigma security system’s Radio Keys (Part number SIGAC111) are small radio transmitters operating on the approved frequency of 433.92 MHz. Although extremely robust you must take care of these remote keys to prolong their working life. •...
5. Using the Ignition PIN Procedure IMPORTANT NOTICE: In the following sections describing the operation of the Ignition PIN Procedure, reference to a PIN code will be made. The PIN code for your security system will have been issued to you on two self-adhesive labels which must be kept in a safe place.
Teaching New Radio Keys & Touch Keys to the Security System IMPORTANT NOTICE: When teaching one or more Radio Keys into the security system all previous Radio Keys will be erased from the system, similarly teaching one or more Touch Keys into the system will erase all previous Touch Keys.
6. Using the Optional Touch Key Override Your Sigma security system’s Touch Keys utilise Dallas IC technology. Although extremely robust you must take care of these Touch Keys to prolong their working life. • If you lose or damage a Touch Key, replace it immediately. •...
7. Using the Optional Touch Key Override (Included with the S30 security system) IMPORTANT NOTICE: In the following sections describing the operation of the Keypad, reference to a PIN code will be made. The PIN code for your security system will have been issued to you on two self-adhesive labels which must be kept in a safe place.
Changing the Security System’s PIN Code NOTE: The security system’s PIN is unique to each security system and is the same 4 digit number that is required to operate both the Ignition PIN Procedure and the Keypad as overrides, however, the system’s PIN can only be changed using the Keypad.
Teaching New Radio Keys to the Security System IMPORTANT NOTICE: When teaching one or more Radio Keys into the security system all previous Radio Keys will be erased from the system. You must always teach ALL the Radio Keys required to operate the security system at the same time. NOTE: When using the Keypad, each time a button is pressed the LED on the Keypad will flash once as confirmation.
Teaching New Touch Keys to the Security System IMPORTANT NOTICE: When teaching one or more Touch Keys into the security system all previous Touch Keys will be erased from the system. You must always teach ALL the Touch Keys required to operate the security system at the same time. NOTE: When using the Keypad, each time a button is pressed the LED on the Keypad will flash once as confirmation.
8. Changing the way the Security System operates using the Optional Keypad (Included with the S30 security system) N.B. The options marked (*) above refer to features associated with the optional Single and Dual Stage Accessory Sensors which may not be fitted to your system. Important: If the Arm and Disarm Indication Tones have been turned on, the security system will no-longer comply with the requirements of 74/61 EEC.
Last Trigger Isolation (Option 0 on the Keypad) If after arming the security system, the Door Open Warning Bleeps continue to sound or the alarm system repeatedly triggers for no apparent reason, yet all the doors, bonnet and boot appear to be closed correctly, this may indicate a fault on one of the switches that trigger the security system.
Delete Dual Stage Sensor Pre-warn (Option 3 on the Keypad) Arming the security system without the Dual Stage Sensor’s Pre-warn facility deleted may be necessary if you wish to leave the vehicle where the Pre-warn facility would become a nuisance. This facility prevents a pre-warn output but allows the security system to be left fully armed.
Delete Ultrasonic, Single & Dual Stage Sensor Triggers & Pre-warn (Option 6 on the Keypad) Arming the security system without Ultrasonics, both the Accessory Sensors Triggers and Pre-warn may be necessary in certain circumstances for example; if you wish to leave people or animals inside the secured vehicle (sensible safety precautions should be exercised if considering this action!), or if travelling on a ferry with an optional Single Stage Tilt Sensor and/or a Dual Stage Shock Sensor fitted.
9. Trouble Shooting Table Remember: • Make sure all the security system’s Radio Keys operate. • Replace transmitter batteries annually. • If a Radio Key is lost or damaged replace it immediately. • Further problems should be referred to your installing dealer at the soonest possible opportunity.
10.Notes Arm/Disarm Indication Tones Please note that the S30 & S34 security systems are supplied with the Arm/Disarm Indication Tones turned off to comply with European legislation. If the Arm and Disarm Indication Tones are turned on the security system will no longer comply with the requirements of 74/61 EEC.
