NAV-TV® Partners with Author Alarm

August 1, 2019 -- Coral Springs, Fla. and St. Petersburg, Russia -- NAV-TV Corp® has partnered with Author Alarm, a leading developer of CAN based vehicle security, convenience and comfort products, to provide exclusive distribution and support for Author Alarm products in the USA. The Companies will be debuting the entire Author Alarm lineup this month during the Dallas, Texas KnowledgeFest event in booths 443 and 843.

Author Alarm products are vehicle agnostic and are flashed with vehicle-specific software upon installation. This allows the authorized dealer to stock less inventory, yet cover a wide range of vehicles at the same time. 

Author Alarm products include:
IGLA 200, 231 and PRO:
The IGLA is a tiny immobilizer device that defeats engine start and other vehicle features using CAN bus technology. The optional anti-hijack feature is included and can be engaged at the time of installation. Deactivation is achieved using a user programmable PIN-code that is entered using the vehicles factory buttons, a free smart phone application or key fob (231 and PRO come with the key fob for disarming the device). The IGLA PRO includes the TOR digital solid-state water proof relay for additional mechanical theft protection.    

OBD Block:

OBD BLOCK is designed to protect the OBD-II diagnostic connector from unauthorized access, additional key programming or digitally disarming the factory vehicle alarm and immobilizer system. Deactivation is achieved using a user programmable PIN-code that is entered using the vehicles factory buttons.

KEYLESS BLOCK:

KEYLESS BLOCK disables the factory passive keyless entry system if there is no key fob or smartphone next to the car. When a key fob or smart phone is within 30 feet the car, the regular Keyless system is activated and keyless access for the owner is restored.

COMFORT:

The COMFORT system uses the vehicle CAN bus to automatically close the car windows, closes the hatch and fold the mirrors. Folding of mirrors and a hatch depends on the car and its factory features.

 “Car thefts in the United States have been rising each year since 2015, especially amongst push-to-start automobiles," said Derek Schmiedl, NAV-TV Vice President. "Modern vehicle owners have a false sense of security and believe that the factory security system is sufficient to deter theft. Unfortunately, the technology they believe will keep their car safe actually makes it incredibly easy to steal. We are excited to have the opportunity to introduce Author Alarm’s universal security and convenience products to our USA dealers and are confident that they will appreciate the ability to again be profitable in the automotive security category."
