matthew scott,
i've had the same problem with the IG950 proximity sensor. The details for all of the remote programmable stuff arent in the owners manual supplied !! if anyone has the details for all of these settings i.e. a decent manual, i would be enternally grateful for a copy (Intelliguard 950) to be sent to me - sifocusuk@hotmail.com
How to change the external proximity sensor settings is...
with the alarm off.
Clifford button 3 times
then *
then **
now you can set the sensitivity up with the boot button or down with the * button. (indicated by the chirp getting higher or lower pitched)
once done press the arm/disarm button (2 chirps will follow)
and the arm/disarm button again (3 chirps will follow)
and you are all done ! |

Hi Si,
I have the details of how to change the proximity sensor, that works fine. It was the ultrasonic sensor that was being triggered. It hasn't happened for a while so I don't know if it's sorted itself out. Who did you get to install your alarm? Cos they should have left you with instructions on how to adjust the proximity sensor. If you need help I can email you the instructions I have (for internal and external zones).
Ps. Does anyone know if the IG 950 comes with the glass tamper sensor as standard? It's just that my manual says that 8 flashes from the LED means it was triggered by either the ultrasonic sensor or the optional glass tamper sensor.
Also could I be really cheeky and ask if anyone has a copy of the installers manual for the IG 950 as I've noticed something that looks like it should be connected but I don't want to connect it and blow the alarm up!!!
Sorry for the long post.
Matt. |

Hey,
I'm after a MULTIPLEX (MUX) Y HARNESS for my clifford 650.
one end is 4 pin socket connector that plugs into the alarm brain the other end splits into two 3pin socket connectors, one white and one blue. The white connector plugs into ultrasonic sensors and the blue connector plugs into a glass break sensor.
Can any one help???? I've tried ebay.
Thanks

Alright…
Can any one help me on my problem??
I was going to try and install a Clifford Avantguard G5 (with built in remote start) but when reading about it and trying to find the correct wires in my pickup (Mitsubishi L200) I thought I would try and get a pro to do it!
The prices I have been given seem to be thought the roof!! Normally around the £500 mark but the cheapest I found was £340. (in £'s as i live in the UK)
Does these kind of prices seem ok for the work I want done????
Any sort of help would be gr8!!!
Cheers

alex groves,
Yes, I would say that is a fair price for the installation of that system. The AG5 is the biggest system Clifford carries and there are a lot of components that have to be installed. Plus, installing on a Mitsubishi is no easy task either.
I've installed these systems myself and install time usually runs about 8+ hours if you solder everything and do it right. |

Hey Skater.
Stupid question.

Where do I connect my laptop to program the alarm?
I cannot see the control unit. where is it usually installed? Do you have the diagram for the IG 850?
I have an '04 WRX STI.

Tag Badhesha,
You connect the computer to the main brain unit of the system or to that last accessory attached to it if any are installed. You will need a special Clifford programming cable inorder to do this. As for location, it is usually located under the driver's side of the dash. Here is a link to the installation guide for the IG 850:

Hi.
I have a question about using the CliffNet Pro software.
My alarm is a Clifford Intelliguard 750 (used brain, new everything) that powers up and works. Currently, I'm testing it out of the car with an AC adapter set at 12V DC. The Unit arms and disarms, and the panic function works. However, the valet code has been changed, so the only way to reprogram it is to use the software.
However, using the Cliffnet Cable (with a generic Null modem adapter) and Pro 2.10 or 2.20 on Windows XP Pro, it connects to the brain and shows whether it's armed or disarmed. But, when you click "Continue," it shows a dialog "Interrogating Devices" and then displays an error message "Can't Determine ECU Type" and closes.
I'm using XP Pro SP2, using a hardware DB9 port on a desktop PC. Using a USB-RS232 adapter on a Thinkpad T41p running XPP SP2, the program freezes at that dialog but shows no error message.
Are there any port settings or other suggestions you can make? Could the error message be indicative of a hardware problem? |

Actually, the correct error message was "Error Reading ECU Type." I've tried changing the port settings and making changes to the BIOS, but it has had no effect. On the plus side, it does quickly connect to and read the arm/disarm status of the alarm when you load the software.
For clarification, my Cliffnet cable didn't include the DB9 F/F adapter. I initially used a F/F gender changer, but then realized I needed a null modem adapter. |

I can now confirm that the freeze-up on my ThinkPad T41p was due to using the wrong device driver. So, now the software doesn't freeze. However, I get the same error message as I did on my Desktop PC. The adapter I used was a Prolific serial-to-USB adapter from CablesToGo.
I've heard that some USB-to-serial adapters don't work. Are there any PCMCIA/Cardbus serial cards I could use?
Or, could I at least find someone that could reset the valet code so that I could program manually? |

Jason Osborne,
The USB-to-serial adapter won't work. Your best bet is to find an old laptop with Windows 95 or 98 on it and use that to program the system. It seems to work better on those two operating systems.
CliffNet Wizard was originally written for Windows 95 and 98 for the G4 series. Now that Clifford has been bought out by DEI, they tried to update the program for use with their G5 series to work with XP and it seems to have bugs in it. |

Skater Bum,
Fortunately, I happen to have an older Toshiba Tecra 500CS (P133, 144MB RAM, 1GB HD) that 98 can run on.
However, I've tried using 98SE (Second Edition) on an AMD Duron desktop system that has a hardware serial port, and it gave me the same error message. Do I specifically need Win95 or 98 (First Edition) for it to work properly?
Thank you. |

Ok, being the IT Tech at a library district, I just happened to have access to two desktop PCs that are on the verge of being sold off: a Dell PII 266 with Win95 and a Gateway with Win98 (1st Ed.) with hardware serial ports. I tried using Pro 2.10 and 2.20 on either one. Software installed and ran without a hitch (2.10 on 95, 2.2 on 98), had the same initial connection, but I got the same error message I reported above with XP.
The Windows installations on both systems were fresh, though Windows Update was not utilized.
Could there be a problem with the alarm brain? Other than the changed valet code and this software issue, it does work. It arms and disarms, the relays work, and panic mode functions.
I have been using a generic null modem adapter to mate the two male ends of the cable and socket together. Could the null adapter be the issue? My cable was bought used and didn't have the original black F/F db9 adapter.
One last important note: this unit has not been installed in the car yet. It's using a 12V DC adapter. All sensors, antenna, the system LED and Switch are plugged in. Both remotes, brand new, work with the alarm. I've basically been bench-testing the unit so I can work out as many potential issues as I could.
Thanks for your advice. |

Maybe you need older software. I use CliffNet Wizard Version 1.2 beta. I know this version works because I use it on my own AG4 system.

Skater Bum,
It occurred to me earlier today that maybe the problem is with the F/F DB9 null modem adapter. The Cliffnet cable originally came with its own F/F DB9 adapter, but what if it's pinned differently?
I went back and looked at the i/o logged with PortMon and found that I could receive data. But, the unit didn't respond when data was sent to it. Therefore, the unit wouldn't send new data back and I get the error.
It would make sense if Clifford pinned their adapter a little differently to help prevent tampering. I'm going to do a continuity test on the pins between the cable's circuit board and the DB9 end. It's possible that the receive pin on the cable side is different. I could then build my own adapter using two DB9 Female connectors. |

I was wrong.
You just need a generic null adapter to mate the male end of the Cliffnet cable to a computer's serial port (if it's a male DB9). I didn't think I was that lucky. |

Hi Skater Bum, any chance of getting an installation guide for the Intelliguard 950? It would be greatly appreciated.
A couple of quick questions as well.
1. When in Cliffnet Wizard in the Intellistart menu, what exactly does activate SRS do? I just don't want to click it and set off the airbags!
2. How do you calibrate the voltage thresholds properly? Mine doesn't have any readings for voltage at the moment.
Thanks,

I'm installing a Concept400, and ChA, ChB, and ChC can be set to either be Pulsed, Timed, or Latched.
Do you think it is nessary to use the 611T that it calls for? |

Matthew Scott,
I can't find anything on an IG950 but here is the installation guide for an IG900:
http://www.directeddealers.com/manuals/ig/clifford/intelliguard900_install.pdf
The SRS button in CliffNet stands for Smart Remote Start. It has nothing to do with the air bags.
As for the voltage calibration, you're on your own. I still haven't figured that one out. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
Peter,
I don't think that you would need the 611T because the Concept 400 does it already. What are you trying to do with the AUX channels? |

Skater - I'm going to use ChA to open and close the LR sliding door and ChB to open and close the RR sliding door. Still undecided on what I should do with ChC, either roll-up or roll-down the windows. The van is cool in that you can roll up or down all windows by turning the key in the driver's door, similiar to BMWs.
Any suggestions?

Peter,
I don't think that you are going to have enough AUX channels to do what you want to do. To operate your driver's side sliding door, you need one channel to open it and one to close it. In this case you need to have (4) AUX channels and you only have (3). You could use the ground-when-armed wire to split your channels but I don't think that you want to be closing your sliding door while the system is armed. You might have to go with the 611T inorder to do what you want to do.
If you wanted to open both doors at the same time and close them at the same time, that you could do with just the channel A (open)and channel B (close)AUX wires and use the channel C wire to do the windows up and down along with the ground-when-armed wire. |

I have a 529T manual but I will have to scan it in because I couldn't find one on DEI's tech site. They had a 528T and a 530T but no 529T, go figure?
And, yes, it should work with a Concept 650. |

Hi Skater Bum, would you by any chance have the following sections from the Clifford engineer install manual, Door lock section, Door trigger/interior light supply section, RPM monitoring section & the important information section.
I am about to install a Clifford concept 300 and Intellistart into my Toyota Altezza (UK Lexus IS200), I have managed to find a Installation manual for Holland and am using the Concept 400 to help with the interpretation but it is missing the above sections. If you have any information on installing it in a Toyota Altezza i.e wiring colours, there position or even where to place the siren as there is no space in the engine bay would be really helpful.
Thanks for your help if it's possible :D |
