2. Do I need a security system for my car? |
|
Unfortunately for the vast majority of us, the days of leaving our doors unlocked without worry are long since gone and vehicle theft and/or content theft has become a very serious concern. For many thieves, just having a visual anti-theft indicator is enough to make them choose an easier target. However, the best method to protect your vehicle and its contents is a systematic approach combining a complete security system with good common sense. Besides parking in a well lit area and keeping your valuables out of sight, installing a SINGTECH security system with a shock sensor or exterior radar sensor will help deter content theft. And, to really protect the vehicle itself a starter kill immobilizer defeat is key to preventing experienced thieves from driving off in your vehicle.
Many experts recommend "layers of protection" to keep your vehicle safe – and one of these layer is an audible alarm. Another layers of protection is a Failsafe Starter Kill immobilizer , to deter “hot-wiring” and keep your car where you parked it. |

3. What features should I look for in an alarm? |
Security. Firstly, You need a good shock/impact sensor. Besides sounding the alarm if a thief opens a door or your trunk, you want the system to detect a sharp impact, which is the job of the shock sensor. You'll want a "dual stage" shock sensor, which differentiate between a light impact (which typically provokes chirps or a voice command to stand back if you have an optional voice module) and a heavy impact, which triggers the full wrath of the siren. These are some additional sensors you might want to add to your system: An audio sensor, to detect breaking glass.A "radar" or field disturbance sensor, especially if you have a convertible or a pickup truck. One other feature you may want to look for is the transmitter range. Such as GSM security systems are designed as no-limited range tracking.
Convenience. Almost anything electrical in the car can be rigged to perform by remote control from the little transmitter on your keychain. Here are 3 of them:Remote Start.

| TWO-way technology refers to the ability of the system to receive a signal from the remote transmitter, perform the requested action, and then send a signal back to the transmitter to confirm that the action was performed. TWO-way technology can perform several useful functions including alerting the owner in the event of an intrusion attempt or confirming that the engine has successfully remote started for remote start equipped models. TWO-way equipped systems usually feature a LCD panel or LED indicators on the transmitter to display the confirmation information. |

| + 9.What is "Automatic or Passive Arming" and how can it benefit me? |
|
SINGTECH Security systems include the selectable feature we call "Passive Arming". Simply put, this is the system's ability to arm (activate) itself automatically without any special intervention by the vehicle operator. When placed in this mode, the security system will arm itself 30 seconds after the owner leaves the vehicle. Even if you forget to arm the system, passive arming will protect the vehicle from would-be thieves. This feature can be used in conjunction with power door locks and windows to fully secure the vehicle. |
