Cliffnet Wizard Cable Where To Connect
I have the Avantguard 5.5 alarm with intellistart
the port for the wizard connection on the alarm unit is used for a cable that connects to the intellistart unit Do i connect the cliffnet wizard cable into the intellistart unit Thanks Gary |
if you have intellistart it's not a good idea to use cliffnet. There is a chance you will scramble the brain and stop the intellistart from functioning.

I did read that you should not program the intellistart with cliffnet as it corupts it and it is not recoverable and will need a new unit ,apart from that is it safe to program all other functions with cliffnet Gary |
I've got cliffnet wizard on a concept 650 mk2 and it works fine, it connects throught the intellistart unit i've adjusted timers, siren tones, smart windows and even rpm signal pulse and have had no problems.

Never had a problem using it for years since the g5 range was bought out. back when the concept 300/600 were launched.

So do you recommend i dont use cliffnet ,or do you just have to be careful what adjustments you make

Cliffnet is good in theory but it has a problem with some intellistart modules which result in the brain being scrambled. There is no way of knowing if yours is safe or not unless you try it. But if it is affected you will need a new intellistart. If you must use it, unplug the cliffnet cable to the intellistart and plug the pc cable straight into your alarm. |

I backed up mine to a file b4 I started "playing". Mine did mess up but restored ok from backed up file. Keep backing up as you change things is my advice.:thumb:

Surely if that is the case that it is a problem with SOME intellistart modules then it would be covered under warrantee
