Code input for ignition security

Postby shrive81 on Sat Sep 09, 2017 3:31 am

Afternoon Gents,

So i have a 15 keypad and two PDM 15's running my offroad car. The keypad has Igniton and start button along with light buttons, master kill, master override, etc..... I am looking to set up a function so that you have to either hold down a specific button or press a number of button in order to make the ignition able to turn on. Basically using this as a security feature so someone cant just jump in the car and hit the ignition button on and then start the car and Bye BYE 110K hahahaha Your help would be very very much apprecitated.

thanks
Kevin

There are a number of ways to do this but the easiest is to create a function that has a couple of inputs and use the output of the function to allow the ignition to turn on.

So for example you could have:

Fn.Security.Active = Sw 1 True for 1 second AND Sw 2 True for 1 second
Fn.Security.Toggle = Toggle, Fn.Security.Active
Out.Ignition = "Existing Operators" AND Fn.Security.Toggle

There are basically endless ways of doing what you want, different switches, different sequences ie press button 2 then button 1 then button 3 etc.

With the above you will also have to take into account resetting the function when the ignition is turned off depending on exactly how you want it to function.
