System Details

Power Lock is available in two versions. A Touch-Key model and a “Hands-Free” Transponder model. Each model is configured to provide content protection. The only difference between the two is how the PowerLock system is disarmed.

Touch Key Model

To start a vehicle with the “Touch Key” system, simply touch the factory-matched Coded Key to the Key Reader and the ignition start circuitry is activated.

With either model, you will hear two beeps and the red LED will turn to green. When the ignition is turned off, the system automatically arms after 45 seconds. If the system is tampered with in any way, the horn will sound for 60 seconds. If the ignition is turned to the “ON” position for more than 15 seconds before Power Lock receives a valid read, the system will also sound the horn.

Touch Key- Simply touch the end of the coded Touch Key to the receiver portion (below the LED) on Remote Reader / System Status LED. LED will change from red (armed) to green (disarmed). Start the vehicle. The Touch Key system ships with two Touch Keys. Touch Key size - 1/4" to 3/8" to 1/4" tapered width x 1/8" height x 2" length.

Remote Reader / System Status LED- Is mounted somewhere convenient on the dashboard or around the ignition key lug in the vehicle. The LED on Remote Reader / System Status LED indicates system status; armed, disarmed, or valet mode. Remote Reader / System Status LED size - 1/2" width x 1/2" height x 1/4" depth. About the size of a dime.

Hands-Free Transponder Model

With the “Hands-Free” model, simply walk up to the vehicle and the system will read the Transponder’s code. The Coded Key or Transponder is recognized by both the System Control/Display Unit and the Solenoid Module and produces an encrypted electronic “handshake” telling the system it is OK to activate the starting circuitry.

The “Hands-Free” Transponder system can also be configured to automatically unlock and lock the vehicles doors without the operator having to push any buttons or fumble with any keys. The “Hands-Free” Transponder model is available as a stand alone remote entry product.

Hands-Free Transponder- No buttons to push. Just enter the vehicle and the system will verify your Hands-Free transponder. The LED on Remote Reader / System Status LED will change from red (armed) to green (disarmed). Start the vehicle. The Hands-Free system ships with one Hands-Free Transponder key fob for the main driver and two Touch Keys. Hands-Free Transponder key fob size - 3/4" to 1" to 1/2" from rear to tip tapered width x 3/8" height x 2and1/2" to tip length.
