Rabster's IS200
Rabster's IS200
ok so we now have another section of my project completed see details below, there are not alot of pictures of the production stage but mainly the finished article.
so anyway 1st things 1st i had to but another screen, after having a liliput screen in my nav housing which seemed to perform wonderfully i hunted for the smae model again.
liliput 619gl
i then attacked this to make it fit inside the standard IS200 Fascia adaptor alot of you are familiar with The walk through HERE
the same principal applies except i cut the existing screen housing apart to make it fit inside the hole
i then used Hurricane & plastic filler to smooth it all followed by primer and paint
So yeah umm here is the finished article in the car
shortly after this i took the pc back out the car to do some work mainly software based but as its been slow due to weather lately
Main thing was to: -
install a Relay board Driver
Windows Updates
Adjust PSU boot times etc (carnetix PSU2410) adjusted by pc software
Customize background of software
attempt to fix satnav problem...
well out of all the above the Sat nav is still outstanding, don't think that's to bad considering lol
Lets start with the background this is done via a Hack in centrafuse once installed you can place pictures into the images directory and either have them rotate through each time it boost or lock it to a image.
i chose a pic of my car which has been customized
So here is before
pic after
so with this installed i then moved onto the Realy board, the whole reason for this is im running out of places to install switches lol , this particular board runs on USB with a 12v input and can switch 12v via relays so i have assigned 4 circuits to start with
Circuit 1 - Inter cooler
Circuit 2 - Strobe Lights
Circuit 3 - Front Camera
Circuit 4 - Audio Amps.
the software has been developed to work as a hack so once installed will automaticly install the relevant task area and buttons on the Centrafuse front End
Labelled up circuits ok only 2 labelled but you get the idea
here is the board in test status on my Living room floor
as you can see LED2 is illuminated this means that the Relay is now in the Normally open position closing the circuit thus giving me a 12v output on that switch
when you press a button on the touch screen the button illuminates green to indicate its operation
the board can be set with 2 system
syetem one to allow toggle press (so it flashes the output upon being pressed non latching)
or
System two Latched output (a single press on the circuit will latch the output and stays latched until pressed again)
Hope you like what you see
Rabs
OK well this is following on from the group buy here
As discussed a lot of you would like to see this system in the flesh and know how easy it is to install, so i went ahead and got 2 kits, to be experimented on 2 different types of set ups
So here is the good news
they are here in my flat ready to rock and roll
If i get a chance this weekend i will get the push start part of the system installed so you can all see that running the proximity bit needs a bit of research as i have an after market alarm.
If i can however Fit this into mine then all those with After market alarms on any vehicle will be able to do the same.
I will do a full write up and picture install thread on this kit once it has been evaluated.

Here we go i picked up a Push button and proximity entrance kit there will be a group buy for the complete system or parts of it
OK so we start of with the System i removed all the wires that i didnt need from the proximity circuit that left me with a total of 7 Cables to terminate as shown below
i then moved on to narrowing these down for install purpose due to the fcat i have a after-market alarm on the car it makes it interesting to install.
With a after-market alarm i need to be able to activate and de active the alarm in doing so this will unlock the doors and turn off the immobiliser.
so my way of doing this was to mimic the operation of the lock and unlock on a G5 remote i disabled all other buttons PERMANENTLY and here is the result of that
so once i had tested this by shorting the 2 wires together the car locked and unlocked accordingly.
now with this in mind i worked out the best way to take the lock and unlock signals from the proximity unit and have them bboth trigger the clifford alarm.
THis was done by taking a relay adding 2 diodes to one side of the coil
then the lock wire went to one diode the Unlock wire went to the other give a constant 12v to the other side of the coil on the relay.
in doing this it stopped the circuit getting any feedback into the main Brain whilst allowing both Lock and unlock to trigger the same switch.
i then made this a little neater and dressed the cables
so now onto the fitting of the unit
Rear mounted antenna position
Front mounted antenna Position
I also put the by pass unit in here as well so everything is nice and hidden
i ran the cables from the front to the rear of the car under the carpet as shown here
Once all the cables were routed through it was time to connect up all the connections you need are located by the steering column
Constant 12v (red) 18AWG
ACC 12v (Small Red) 18AWG
Ground (Black) 22AWG
to trigger the lock and unlock
Lock (Green) 18AWG
unlock (Blue) 18AWG
Few more bits done today
Painted rear drums in smooth black to get rid of the paint flake and rust flakes lol
Tidied up a bit of wiring under the dash still tons there
fitted remote folding mirrors upon car unlocking (everyone else it on car locking) i got both ner ner
Collected my package from Fedex they carded me when i was sitting in the front room so pretty sure they didn't knock....
Clean the car morrow i think inside and out....
