Remotes
Most Seat drivers keep a spare remote in the house or garage, but when they lose it getting replacement keys from a dealer is expensive and time consuming. This is because most dealers will programme the key using the car's computer which will need to be reset. However, many people buy second-hand keys off the internet that are not programmed to their car. This can be a much cheaper alternative to going to the dealer. But, these key will not start the car because they will not have a transponder chip inside them. You can see the chip (yellow) in this picture below, it is a Dual Inline Package or DIP 18 pin chip. There are also a diode, transistor and resonator, all these parts make up the key's circuit.
Immobilisers
The number of car thefts began to decrease as car immobilisers became popular in the latter part of the 1990s. However the criminals are always on the lookout for ways to circumvent security systems. The initial immobilisers were avoided by using a scanner to find the code on the chip and copying it onto a blank key. But the technology has advanced and thieves have to devise new methods to get around security systems.
Fortunately, the majority immobilisers that we supply and fit are Thatcham Cat 2 approved. This means they have been tested and certified by the Thatcham Research organisation. This non-profit organization is responsible for the grading system, as well as the approval of security and alarm devices, such as car immobilisers.
When the Thatcham approved system is activated it will send a signal coded to the Engine Management System (EMS) of the vehicle that prevents the engine from starting without the proper key. If the car is "hot-wired" after entering it will stop the engine in about 30 seconds and make it impossible to start.
Like any computer, the immobiliser may develop problems. Sometimes, the internal battery or the key fob will need to be replaced. The best option is always go for an expert to complete the task as it will ensure that everything is installed properly and functions.
Transponders
A transponder is a device which transmits an identifying signal upon being questioned. This helps keep a distinct line between aircraft and identifies an aircraft to air traffic controllers if it is using an active radar system. The identifying information sent back by the transponder is different based on the type of system used.
Transponders can also be found in spacecrafts and satellites to communicate with Earth systems like cell phone networks, or other networks for communication. These devices receive signals across a variety of frequencies, and then transmit them at another frequency, much like the way repeaters function in terrestrial cellular phone networks.
Often sophisticated transponders with sophisticated technology can be located on aircraft. They monitor flight status and provide information about navigation such as the aircraft’s position speed, altitude, and speed. Air traffic controllers use data from these transponders to control flight paths and ensure safety.
In addition to transponders for aircraft, many personal keys now come with a tiny transponder. These chips don't require batteries, and are therefore passive. This allows the ECU to read the transponder's signal when it is inserted into the ignition lock.
The flight deck of many aircrafts includes a switch pilots can switch their transponders on or off. They can also select an "ident" mode that allows the transponder's unique squawk codes, which makes it stand out on an air-traffic control panel that is busy.
