Wiring the DEI 507M Into ISIS

Our ISIS Power system brings you powerful functionality for all aspects of your car's electrical system.  One of those is our alarm functions through our inLINK wireless key fobs.  With inLINK, you get remote control, a vehicle immobilizer and an alarm all built in the ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System. 

You can choose to use MASTERCELL inputs as triggers for the alarm.  When security is set on inLINK, we honk the horn or an external siren if these inputs are triggered.  These inputs can connect to pin switches on your doors or a tilt sensor like the DEI 507M

We have created an application note specifically to show you how to wire this tilt sensor into your ISIS system. 


Essentially, the red wire on their harness needs to connect to a constant 12-volt feed from the battery. The light-blue wire in their harness connects to the MASTERCELL input wire for the alarm trigger.  The orange wire needs to be connected to ground, but only when the ignition is off.  This is what calibrates the angle for the tilt sensor.  This diagram shows you how to simply add a small relay to ground the orange wire on their harness when the ignition is off. 

You can download a PDF of this application note at this link

Please contact our technical support team at (847) 232-1991 or at sales@isispower.com if you have any questions about how to get the most out of the features of your ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System.

Great ISIS Install in a 55 Chevy

This next customer car has to be one of the neatest and most meticulously executed ISIS installs that we have seen. These pictures were sent to use from Randy Gribble of Lake City Rod & Custom in Watertown, South Dakota. He built this '55 Chevy for his customer Fred H. 

 
 
As most of these projects are, this was a 5-year project for Randy and his team.  They started with a 1955 Chevy body but used the '56 trim for a different look.  Under the body is a LS3 from Street & Performance mated with a Tremec 5-speed transmission bolted to an Art Morrison chassis. 
 
The whole project tapped out every possible guy in the Watertown area.  Randy Lauren of Lauren's Hot Rods did the body work and the paint.  Andy Wicks of DynoTune tweaked the engine.  Randy also got support from Josh Powers of Custom Image Corvettes, another existing ISIS Power customer. 
 
Randy wired the car with our 3-Cell Kit, inLINK and inMOTION.  He worked with our tech team to do a little custom programming to make the car unique.  One of the features is that he has motorized the left-hand tail-light assembly that covers the gas filler.  He can push a button on his inLINK key fob and the filler cover will open and close. 
 
Check out the cleanliness of the wiring job here. 
 
 


 
 
 
From here, the car goes to Paul Atkins Interiors in Alabama to get the interior trimmed. 
 
Congrats to Fred & Randy on an awesome car.  Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Tec9 Camaro with ISIS at SEMA


There are always a lot of Camaros at SEMA.  The '69 in particular is a monumental ride.  Building a unique '69 Camaro that stands out against everything else at SEMA is a awesome feat.  Behold the TEC9 Camaro build by Mitch Henderson Designs. 

This car includes a ton of details that can only be appreciated up front and close.  The air bagged suspension was fabricated completely in house by their team.  The body was heavily modded and sculpted.  The only way to describe the interior is plush.  They have a Street & Performance polished LS7 under the hood.  Don Hardy Race Engines CNC'd the heads, ground a custom cam, added his valve covers, coil pack covers and a valley pan.  They estimate that this will crank out 700 hp.  All of these pieces come together to make this an amazing machine. 

Hidden in the belly of this beast is our ISIS Power hardware.  We worked closely with Rob Wechler and Mitch Henderson to get them what they needed to wire the Camaro with our ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System. 

They started with our 3-Cell Kit to wire all of the base functions in the car.  From there, they added inMOTION to wire the power windows and locks, inDASH to clean up the wiring behind the dash and inTOUCH Mobile so they can control the car from their iPhone. 

Kevin Oeste of V8TV did a great interview with Rob showing off the highlights of the car.  Check it out below. 



Congratulations to Mitch & Rob for a flawlessly executed 1969 Camaro.  The ISIS Power team is proud to be a part of it.  You can learn more about their shop at their Facebook page by clicking here

Update on Stalker V8 Build



Our customer, Mike O, send us some updated picture of his ISIS wiring job in his Stalker V8.  This is a unique component car.  While it is small, there are still a lot of electrical functions that have to be wired to make it work correctly.  As there are no wiring harnesses available for this car in the market, Mike turned to our universal ISIS Power system to wire it.

This is his second car wired with ISIS.  He saw the benefits of wiring his Birkin before with ISIS so he returned to our team when it came time to wire his Stalker. 

Here are some pictures of the car with the MASTERCELL and POWERCELL installed and wired into the chassis. 

Mike has the MASTERCELL and POWERCELL mounted directly behind the dash.  This makes the wiring to his switches very short.  Same with his output harnesses from the POWERCELL. 




Give our guys a call to learn more about how our ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System can help you wire any car that you are building.  You can reach us at (847) 232-1991 or at sales@isispower.com

ISIS Power in the V8 Stalker

Our customers have used our ISIS Power system to wire a very broad range of cars, trucks and custom vehicles.  In some cases, there are no aftermarket wiring harnesses available to for what they are building.  Our universal wiring systems give the builder complete flexibility to power all of the electrical functions in their vehicles. 

Some of our customer project are really complicated.  They involve multiple POWERCELLs, inMOTION motor controllers, touch screens, key fobs and battery management systems.  Others, are pretty straight forward.  In either case, our customers get simplified wiring when they use ISIS. 

Here's another great example.  Mike O is a repeat ISIS customer.  His present project is a Stalker built by Brunton Auto in St. Petersburg, FL.  Motivated by a V8, this car looks like a ton of fun. 

Mike is using our ISIS Power 2-Cell Kit with inLINK to control all of the electrical functions in the car.  Here are some highlights of Mike's build. 


 
 

You can follow the progress of Mike's build on the Brunton site by clicking here.  He has a lot more pictures showing the overall project. 

If you would like to learn more about how the ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System can help you simplify the electrical system and the wiring in your car plus give you features that no other wiring harness can give, call us at (847) 232-1991 or email us at sales@isispower.com.

ISIS Cell Locations in Factory Five GTM

A lot of guys have been looking at the different Factory Five GTM's that we have posted about on the blog lately.  Some have asked where the builders have mounted their MASTERCELL, POWERCELLs and inMOTION Cells.  ISIS customer Hugo R sent us some pictures from his build showing where he located the cells in his car. 

Remember that one of the big benefits of using ISIS to wire your car is that you you place the cells close to where you need them.  This reduces the total amount of wire harness needed in the car.  The MASTERCELL should be located close to your switches.  The POWERCELLs should be located close to your lights, fans, ECU's, starter solenoids and other switched functions in the car. 

Here's where Hugo mounted his cells.

Kevin Tetz's Jaded Mustang at SEMA 2012

Here's another great car at the 2012 SEMA show that is wired with our ISIS Intelligent Multiplex System. 

Kevin Tetz is a very busy guy in the industry.  Outside of all of the television work that he does and his Paintucation DVD series, he just put the finishing touches on a '66 Mustang that he calls "Jaded".

This car was wired with our ISIS 3-Cell Kit and out inLINK key fobs.  Assisted by TC over at Bay One Customs, they did an awesome job installing the electrical system in the car.

They wired the S71 with our 3-Cell Kit, inLINK and inMOTION.  It is a beautifully executed car, very clean with a solid stance.
