Your vehicle was stolen. You immediately call the police. Although you can track the vehicle through Frotcom, you want to block it immediately before it gets out of reach.
Do you need a way to block your vehicle in case of theft? Frotcom’s Immobilizer allows you to block your vehicle in case of theft.
For each vehicle, you will be given a unique code that will allow you to block and unblock the system. Use it either through Frotcom’s web interface or through Frotcom’s smartphone app.
For security reasons, the vehicle's immobilization will only occur once the vehicle is parked and the ignition is turned off. When that occurs, immobilization will take place immediately.
From that moment on, trying to turn the engine on again will have no effect. The driver cannot restart the vehicle until you send another command with the unblocking code.
Add the “GPS Controlled” sticker to your vehicle, to discourage thieves. This is as important as the installation of the immobilizer itself.
An immobilizer (control switch) connected to the vehicle’s ignition circuit is controlled from a digital output in Frotcom’s GPS tracking device.
When you or another authorized person issues the immobilization command, the switch is opened. This then cuts off the electric circuit to the starter. As a consequence, if the driver tries to turn the key to restart the engine, nothing will happen.
Once an “antidote” command is sent to the device, the switch will close again, allowing the current from the car battery to reach the starter. When the driver turns the key again, the engine will start.
For security reasons, the immobilizer does not have any impact on a vehicle while it is running. The only effect will be to disable the driver’s capacity to restart the engine, once the ignition is turned OFF.
