Continental RHT433 Remote Control
System Overview
The RHT433 is a transmitter designed to provide remote keyless entry, passive entry, passive engine start, and immobilization functionality to the FCA platform, it is part of a larger system provided to FCA by Continental which allows the customer to:
- Remotely start the engine.
- Remotely lock the doors.
- Remotely unlock the doors.
- Remotely open the trunk.
- Remotely find the car.
- Remotely unlock and lock doors in passive mode (PASE).
- Start engine in passive mode (PASE).
- Start the car via push button (IMMO immobilization).
- Use mechanical emergency key as back-up to access to the vehicle.
The system consists of PASE FOBIK, RFHM, and IMMO. The Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) and Start uses a Radio Frequency (RF) link for communication between the end user and the vehicle; For Passive Entry and Passive Start function, FOBIK receives LF command from RFHM via a Low Frequency (LF) link and responses back via RF link. The Immobilization uses a Low Frequency (LF) link for communication/authentication between FOBIK and IMMO.
