The 457 is the smallest and most compact vehicle security system in its class today. This top of the range system is packed with the latest innovation and confort features such as anti-hijack and anti-key theft, and allows various vehicle horn and siren compatible outputs, various window closure timer options and various sensor options. The immobiliser has two onboard circuit cuts while the third circuit cut is activated via Power Line Communication technology (PLC). This allows for a far more secure installation. The unit comes standard with two four button encrypted rolling code remotes. In an emergency the system can be overridden via a unique ignition key sequence.

CANBus or "Controller Area Network BUS" is a two-wire protocol found extensively in modern vehicles. This CAN protocol facility communication between internal modules such as the cluster, convenience module & central locking module in order for the vehicle to correctly distribute crucial (and non crucial) information. This information super-highway allows for a wealth of information to be extracted from (and written to) a vehicle from a single connection as opposed to having to locate numerous individual conventional wires. It is the exploitation of the CANBus within vehicles that makes a CANBus system superior to a conventional alarm.

The 695 CANBus alarm is PFK's flagship CANBus alarm system capable of interacting directly with a vehicles CANBus system and providing both read and write capabilities. This, depending on the particular vehicle, allows for a true 4 wire (CANH, CANL, Power and ground) alarm system. CANBus functionality that is not supported for a particular vehicle may additionally be hard wired. 

The 888 is a compact GSM / GPS based vehicle tracking system with enhanced security features such as configurable alarm inputs, wireless immobiliser, anti-hijack and driver’s ID etc.The unit is fully CAN enabled for ease of interfacing with the alarm and sensors via the CANBus of the target vehicle.  Communication to peripherals is via a 2.4 GHz communicator. The system is based on the 777 platform but additionally comes equipped with OEM approved connectors, making the unit ideally suited for OEM applications.

The GPS information is relayed to the control room via GSM and the unit has a built in backup beacon transmitter which, once activated, will assist in pin-pointing the vehicle, using a DF receiver and antenna. The unit has an onboard communicator to facilitate communication to peripherals such as a wireless immobiliser and driver’s ID fob.

 The CVT is a virtual Autowatch CANBus product which can be loaded with any of the online PFK vehicle updates. When connected to your vehicle, the CVT allows for a visual indication of CANBus activity as well as the ability to transmit CANBus codes back onto the bus to verify functionality. Its purpose is to  identify and confirm connection to the correct CANBus wires and subsequently verify the .pfk update before a product install or be used to identify new supported vehicles. Since PFK's .pfk vehicle updates are product independent, if a particular update works in the CVT for a particular vehicle, it will also work in all our products for that particular vehicle.

 The 691 USB CANBus Programming Kit may be used to upgrade Autowatch CANBus products with the latest vehicle updates as they are released on http://canbus.pfkelectronics.com. Note that all Autowatch CANBus products will leave PFK with the latest available Vehicle Support update however our global team of engineers / technicians are continually adding to the database. With this tool and access to the CANBus Portal, your Autowatch CANBus product will never go out of date.
