Anti-Code Grabbing Wireless Transponder
Immobilizer Security System
MEGATRONIX
CALIFORNIA, U.S.A.

Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing the immobilizer system. This high-tech immobilizer uses the latest
in transponder technology to protect automatically your vehicle from theft. Once installed, disarming
of the immobilizer is fully automatic and requires no action on the part of the user. It has three
points of immobilization as well as a negative armed output option.
Operation
One of the transponder tags should be attached to the key ring containing the vehicle’s ignition key.
It is important that only one tag be attached to the key ring at any given time. The other tag should
be kept separately as a spare or attached to the vehicle’s spare set of keys.
The immobilizer will automatically search for tags for the first 60 seconds after the driver’s door is
opened or the ignition is turned on. When a correct transponder tag is recognized, the LED will stop
flashing, indicating the immobilizer is disarmed.
The immobilizer will re-arm automatically 30 seconds after the ignition has been turned off. During
the automatic arming period, the LED will flash rapidly. Once armed, it will flash slowly.

Emergency Override
This immobilizer is equipped with a high security emergency override system. The override is
based on a PIN (Personal Identification Number) that must be entered through the ignition switch in
the event that a tag is lost. The PIN is entered by following the instructions below. All units when
shipped have a different PIN number with a sticker on the services card. A new PIN number is
programmable; please see Changing PIN Number further in the instructions.
To demonstrate, the override PIN number of 1-2-3-4 will be used. It is important to read and
understand the following instruction before beginning the override procedure.
Override is based on a combination of turning the ignition on and off, and counting the flashes from
the red LED. If a mistake is made, simply start the procedure again with the first digit.
Below procedure assumes the PIN is 1-2-3-4. Ensure no tag is in range of receiver (Ignition switch).

The immobilizer will remain overridden until ignition is switched ON and a valid tag is within range
of receiver (ignition key); where the LED will flash rapidly as per auto-arming cycle.

Programming a New PIN Number
Changing PIN from 1-2-3-4 to 4-3-2-1. Ensure no tag is in range of receiver (Ignition switch).

New PIN report
The immobilizer will now report the newly programmed PIN by flashing each number in sequence,
each one separated by a long flash.
1) Leave ignition ON until report finishes enabling new PIN; OR
2) Turn ignition OFF prior to finishing report to forget new PIN and revert back to old PIN.
It is important to record the new PIN number for future use. If a mistake is made and the PIN cannot
be remembered, enter the PIN 9-9-9-9 and then bring one of the coded tags close to the ignition
switch. This will reset the PIN to 1-2-3-4.

Programming a New Tag to the System
Assume the PIN is still 1-2-3-4. Ensue no tag is in range of receiver (Ignition switch).

Within 5 seconds place tag into
receiver area (Ignition Switch)
LED will glow

seconds
Tag is now
confirmed
11
Repeat step 10 for any more tags
NOTE: The immobilizer contains enough memory to store five tags. When a sixth tag is
programmed, the unit will cycle around and overwrite tag #1. This feature is useful
when re-programming the system after tags are either lost or stolen.
12
Once LED is glowing constantly,
switch the ignition OFF. Unit is now
armed and will respond to new tag
LED flashes then
glows constantly
In the event that both tags are lost and the system is overridden, the immobilizer must be brought
out of override before a new transponder can be programmed. Open the driver’s door, turn the
ignition ON and then bring the new un-coded transponder close to the ignition. Allow 30 seconds
for immobilizer to re-arm and begin programming procedure.

ANTENNA INSTALLATION
1. Antenna can be installed in the vicinity position of the ignition lock, but do not place it too close
to the ignition’s metal parts so as to get better range as shown below:
2. Antenna must be installed as an even circular shape. Do not install bended such as below:
3. Please place the antenna as a 90o angle with the direction of the tag how the user usually
approaches the tag’s antenna to get maximum range (5 to 6 inches) as below:
