1) Introduction

Why using this device?

CTS (Car Trace System) is a car trace and anti-theft system in a package, which uses mobile network, GPRS and SMS services and moreover it’s a usual car anti-theft system, which makes it an advanced anti-theft system. This device includes GPS receiver, which allows clients to trace their car online and inform them about position of their car on the map.

Generally this system is composed of four sections:

1- CTS Device

2- Remotes

3- CTS mobile software

4- Online car map

The following figure shows how these four sections work together:

3) Important features of the system with Carman mobile software

Reasons to use this device:

For more convenience and increase in the range of your control (almost unlimited), there is a software you can find in the CD, which can control Carman system remotely. This software works like an advanced video panel. For further information please find the help file in the

CD. In order to send a command by the software, you have to know the password and also insert the SIM card code in Carman. Note that everyone who knows this password and SIM card code, can easily access your anti-theft system, so keep the password safe and do not inform untrustedpeople about it. Moreover, you should submit your phone number as a user name on the system, in orderto receive alarms on your cell phone. Extra users can be addedlater on in the “advanced settings” menu. For example, two trusted cell phone numbers like your children’s or your wife’s can be added to the system so that they will be informed in necessary times. Carman system can receive commands only on your cell phone, for more security. To do so, you should submit your cell phone number as user 1.

1) J1 connector: This is the main connector and pins are in order (Vin, GND, Vout) from left to right.

2) J2 connector: This socket should be connected via Carman J304 6 wires cable.

3) Battery switch: It is used to turn the supporting battery on or off.

Installing Carbat:

1) First install Carman system completely. Leave Carman power in J-300 red wire number 1 unconnected.

2) Opencarbat package.

3) Turn on SW1 switch without establishing the Carbat connection. Green LED on carbat should be on and it means Carbat is charged. Turn the switch off so that LED turns off.

4) Connect related J1 and J2 cables to Carbat.

5) Connect J1 black wire connector to the car’s main body (pin number 2).

6) Connect Carbat J1 red-black wire connector (pin number 3) to Carbat power wire, which is a red wire (Carman device J300 connector, pin number 1).

7) Turn SW1 switch on so that the Carbat’s green LED turns on. Carman’s power is now provided from the supporting battery.

8) Connect Carbat’s red wire (pin number 1 of Carbat device J1 connector) to the car’s main electrical power. Green LED remains on and it is possible that yellow LED turns on. It means that supporting battery is charging from car’s main electrical power. In this status, power of

Carman is provided from car’s main battery.
