# StarLine R7

# User Manual

#### **<span style="color: rgb(35, 111, 161);">General</span>**

**StarLine R7** multi-purpose code relay module is designed to secure vehicles from theft by engine blocking and to extend the main security system functionality.

Key advantages:

- compact size allows you to mount it invisibly into the factory wiring harness
- with the waterproof housing it can be installed in engine bay with high humidity and temperature environment
- communication between relay and security system main unit is carried out via StarLine Bus encoded digital interface
- 2 built-in full contact group relays provide blocking of independent engine control circuits
- 5 output and 2 input configurable channels
- buil-it accelerometer detects vehicle motion

<p class="callout info">Compatible with StarLine E9, S9, AS9, B9 series security systems</p>

**StarLine R7** has two built-in full contact group relays, for each an individual engine blocking delay and duration can be set. It helps to perform a cut of two circuits simultaneously, i.e. the first relay may block crankshaft position sensor and the second - camshaft position sensor.

**StarLine R7** has 5 universal open collector outputs and 2 universal inputs with negative polarity. It helps to extend security system functionality by performing extra security and comfort features.

The relay unit is always in contact with security system main unit and executes the engine blocking commands received from main unit. And it shall block engine autonomously at a drive attempt when connection with the main unit is lost in Armed mode.

The optional **StarLine R7** relay must be registered into the security system main unit.

<p class="callout info">Max 5 R7 relays can be registered in one main unit</p>

The relay is registered via StarLine Bus encrypted interface as below:

1. Connect R7 white-black wire (StarLine Bus) with white-black wire of security system (StarLine bus)
2. Apply input power
3. Switch the security system main unit into “Device registration mode”
4. The successful registration is confirmed with the double beep sounds and double valet LED blinking

#### **<span style="color: rgb(35, 111, 161);">General installation requirements</span>**

**StarLine R7** relay unit is dedicated to installation in road vehicles with 12V on-board voltage. Mount it into the hidden pace (i.e. in engine bay, inside factory wiring harness or relay/fuse box) away of the moving or highly heated parts. Fix it with the plastic straps.

**STARLINE BUS INTERFACE CONNECTION** Connect white-black wire (StarLine bus) with the corresponding StarLine bus digital wire of security system main unit.

**POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION**  
Red and black wires are used for the power supply connection.

The black “ground” wire must be connected first to the factory original screw or nut on the body. The wire should be crimped into the matching size electric clamp before fixing it under screw or nut. Recommend to cover the place of connection with anti-rust grease.

**<span style="color: rgb(186, 55, 42);">Do not use tapping screws and other non-original fasteners for the ground wire connection.</span>**

Connect the red positive wire to original +12V power supply circuit wires with cross section not less than 2 sq.mm.

The red wire should be connected through the fuse from delivery set.

**5V POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION** This connection method can be used to reduce power consumption and performing engine blocking functionality only. The relay is trying to connect with a main unit at every ignition On. If connection is not established then engine shall be blocked at a drive (motion) attempt, detected with embedded accelerometer

<p class="callout info">For engine blocking at connection with the main unit loss the options “Engine blocking 1” and “Engine blocking 2” must be set for the channel. If engine blocking is configured with any FlexibleLogic program, then it shall not run in case of connection loss</p>

**12V POWER SUPPLY CONNECTION**

This connection method is recommended to use the relay as a service extension unit

<p class="callout info">Set the necessary functions to inputs and outputs in StarLine Master program</p>
