CONTROL OVER SYSTEM
Arming/disarming using radio tag button
To arm/disarm the system, RF tag should be in radio coverage
area (within a radius of 5 meters from the car). The system produces
a protected (AES-128 encryption) interactive high-speed exchange
of authorization codes in the frequency range 2,4 GHz on one of
125 channels. To arm the system when the ignition is switched off,
shortly press the tag button. The system will confirm the command
receiving with 1 short sound signal and 1 flash of turn indicators. To disarm the system, shortly press
the tag button. The system will confirm the command receiving with 2 short sound signals and 2
flashes of turn indicators. Each button press will be confirmed with LED indicator flash of the tag that
indicates the battery is functioning correctly. If LED indicator does not flash or light, the tag battery
should be replaced (see ‘Replacing immobilizer tag battery’ section).
Arming/disarming in Hands Free mode
The system allows for programmable Hands Free arming and disarming. To arm the system when
the engine is not running, move with the remote tag away from the car at a distance greater than the
regular radio coverage (10 meters for 2,4 GHz) – the system will be armed automatically. To disarm the
system, move toward the car with remote tag.
Arming/disarming in slave mode
In this mode it is possible to monitor the status of original security system of the car via CAN-bus
or by analog inputs. When arming and disarming original security system, Pandora will be armed and
disarmed respectively. The presence of a tag in the radio zone is not required, but at the beginning of
motion if the tag is not detected by the system, the engine will be blocked.
There is an option in the system settings named ‘Disable disarming when the tag is not present’.
When this option is enabled, disarming procedure will be performed only if there is a tag in the radio
zone.
Pandora DXL-0100L/0101L is innovative and highly effective security solution that
helps prevent aggressive seizure of the car (hijacking) with the use of 2 immobilizer tags. To
strengthen the defenses of the car, additional blocking relays can be installed (up to 3).
Immobilizer mode
This mode is enabled by default. When engine is running, base unit of Pandora security system
performs a search for immobilizer tags in radio zone. If no tags were detected, LCD remote will play
‘NO TAG FOUND’ ringtone. If no radio tags were detected when the ignition is switched on, the
system will block the engine with all radio relays that were programmed into the system. Engine
blocking will only occur when motion sensor detects movement of the car. If additional analogue
blocking relays were installed, they will block the engine immediately, before or when the car starts
moving, it depends on system settings.
Antihijack mode
This mode is disabled by default. Antihijack mode helps to prevent aggressive seizure of the car
using delayed engine blocking on door opening.
Every time when the engine is running on opening/closing a door, immobilizer requests response
from a remote using unique algorithm. After a door was opened while the engine is running,
if the system cannot detect a radio tag, the engine will be stopped after 1 minute (general safety
requirement). ‘ENGINE BLOCKING WARNING’ ringtone will play before blocking.
If engine blocking is performed via radio relay after warning signals are over or on new attempts
to start the engine, immobilizer will only allow the engine to start when the car is not moving, and will
block it again if it starts movement. If the car starts moving, the immobilizer will block the engine for
15 seconds. When registered tag appears in the radio zone, blocking will be canceled and the system
will return to the normal operation.
If the engine is blocked via analog relay, engine operation will be stopped after warning signals
are over, until a registered tag appears in the radio zone or on registering movement – depending on
the settings.
