Until
a few years ago, the functions such as central locking and radio remote
control technology were only reserved for upper or middle vehicle
classes. However, today, the use of such systems has become a frequent
part of the standard equipments for more or less all kinds of vehicles.

The
key function of these driver authorization systems includes an ID
transmitter. This consists of a strong integrated transmission as well
as a receiver unit. These two combines the authorization system with an
active wireless radio remote control for unlocking and locking the
vehicle even from larger distances. The range of this transmitter is
also pretty good.

The manufacturers that design this unique
product also offer different features with their products. Mainly the
driver authorization system is made for commercial vehicles as well as
different machinery vehicle. The chief aim of these products is to
protect the vehicle from unauthorized engine start or movement. However,
the service of each system depends on the customer’s application.

The
system type may vary from each other, however, the basic process is
somehow remains same. Generally a low powered microcomputer is used to
control the Ignition lock-out system. Most of these products are sealed
with cast aluminum enclosure, providing it stainless mounting
appearance. They are also easy installable as mentioned earlier. You can
easily control it by using a normal 12v battery power. You can also set
your program with your personal authorization code. Most of the Driver
Authorization System also includes Keypad Unit, sealed parking brake low
pressure switch, sealed engine kill relay as well as Installation guide
Components.

Basically this product prevents unauthorized vehicle
movement on vehicles by using the automatic transmissions. When the
transmission is shifted into park the systems are automatically armed.
And if anyone wants to shift the vehicles into drive by entering an
invalid user ID, the engine results to stall. You can also disarm the
system by entering correct code and as a result the engine starts again.
If the invalid code is entered continuously more than five times, the
vehicle is automatically locked for ten minutes. You then have to enter
additional code to unlock it. LED indicators are also attached with this
system. The red indicates the system armed, Green for disarmed and
flashing red for auto shut down. Alternating green and red flashing
indicates that the system is locked due to multiple entering of
incorrect codes. It is really effective for the vehicles that need to be
left unattended with engine running.
