1. General Information
1.1 Function
The system ZEUS is a micro-processor device used to remotely observe and control cars,
motorbikes and other vehicles through GSM network.
Examples of system usage:
Informing the user by an SMS message or phone call about the engagement of the car
security system. Your security system detectors will always be adjusted correctly and
your car will never disturb you or your neighbours unnecessarily.
Vehicle search services through www.locator.lt
Informing the user about low battery.
Listening to what is going on inside the car through a remote microphone
A possibility to check over the mobile phone if you have not forgotten turning on the
security system.
1.2 Operation Description
Informational system ZEUS works over GSM network. It is not an alarm system- it is an
accessory to one. However, the device can be used independently, without any security system.
This is described in section 1.5.
If vehicle siren, shock sensor, capacity sensor or any other sensor (depending on the
installation) is triggered, ZEUS systems sends SMS message and calls the pre-programmed
numbers until the call is answered or one of the two users presses rejection key or the call is
terminated by mobile network operator. If you answer the call, the microphone will activate and
you will be able to listen to what is happening inside the vehicle. After hanging up the phone the
system gets back to the previous status. SMS message with the name of the triggered input (zone)
is sent until first successful message delivery to one of the users.
If the system drops the call immediately after calling to the number of ZEUS system,
vehicle alarm system is turned off. In such a case you can check if you did not forget to turn
vehicle alarm system. If the security system is turned on, after four or five call signals ZEUS will
answer the call activating the microphone. You will be able to listen to what is happening inside the
vehicle.
When vehicle battery is low, the system will send SMS message informing that the
battery is getting low. This message is sent when vehicle battery voltage is 11 volts for 40 seconds
and longer.
If an unknown number tries calling the system or if the system receives SMS message
iwith a wrong password, the system ignores this.
To find out the place of your vehicle you have to order the service in the website
www.locator.lt prior inserting SIM card in system port.
If, during the theft, vehicle battery is disconnected from the car, the system ZEUS is
powered by a backup battery and the user receives SMS message notifying about this. A fully
charged 0.6Ah backup battery keeps the system operating for up to 10 hours.
