Transponder Keys
Contrary to the flat metal keys which are mechanically operated with cuts on the top and bottom, transponder (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) keys are equipped with an electronic microchip inside their key heads. When the key is put into a vehicle equipped with transponder technology it sends an insignificant message to a receiver near the ignition switch. If the chip is programmed to send this signal, it will cause the engine to turn on. Transponder chips are designed to protect cars from theft and that is why the majority of modern cars have them.
In World War II, coded messages were transmitted via radio frequencies to determine if an aircraft was hostile or friendly. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985, for its Corvette. Since then, they’ve been used on the majority of new cars, and can also be retrofitted into older models.
If you own a car that has this type of security system, you must always have an extra transponder keys in your car, as it only works only if the chip has been scanned correctly. This is not foolproof. Some people have found ways to fool this system. They include kits and tutorials that explain how to disable the transponder with electrical relays and wires.
Proximity keys
Proximity keys are the latest keyless entry technologies, which are gaining popularity on a variety of vehicles. The key fob is put in a pocket or bag and used to unlock the car. The key fob connects to the vehicle, disengaging immobilisers, and allows it to start.
However, proximity key systems have some disadvantages. If the key fob becomes damaged or lost, it cannot be used to start your car. It’s costly to have a locksmith or dealership replace it. The fobs are also powered by batteries, and so they will need to be periodically replaced.
The proximity key technology also has the disadvantage of removing the cause-and-effect cycle that we are all familiar with when using physical keys. When using a traditional key, if you touch the lock and it opens, you know you have the key. You must be within a specific distance to activate the proximity-sensing key.
Despite their disadvantages, proximity key technology is an amazing tool for drivers who don’t want to lock themselves out of their vehicle. In the event of an emergency, make sure you have a backup key handy if you own a proximity-key. If you need a new key, contact the local Pop-A Lock to inquire about the cost of replacements and to receive a price for services.
Keyless Entry Systems
These systems are synchronized to back-end software, which allows landlords to keep track of both exit and entry. These systems are synced to back-end software and allow landlords to keep track of entry and exit. Additionally these systems make it easier for tenants to gain access to the property in the event of a crisis.
A keyless entry system works by transmitting encrypted signals to a receiver inside the car. The receiver then interprets the signal and opens or starts the engine. It can also detect the presence of a driver and adjust the settings of the vehicle according to their preferences. For instance, if a driver is carrying bags in their hands, the system will recognize this and then automatically shut the doors.
While the majority of keyless entry systems are safe, some are vulnerable to attacks. For instance replay attacks occur when the initial remote control signal is recorded, and then repeated to the device at a later point. However, this could be thwarted by including in the keyless entry system an algorithm that guarantees that each transmission is distinct from the previous ones.
A keyless entry system has the advantage that it does not require you to replace the locks each when a tenant moves out. This is a costly part of the unit turnover process and it is logical for landlords to avoid this expense as much as feasible. With a keyless system all you have to do is reset the code. This is much faster and simpler than replacing the lock.
