Smartphone-based remote car starters from Perzan Auto Radio near Philadelphia provide nearly unlimited range. Several options are available to control a remote starter or security system. These options include one-way and two-way RF remotes and smartphone options that use cellular data and Bluetooth communications. Let’s look at the options we carry.
One-Way Remote Controls
The classic remote for a car starter or security system is a one-way remote control. These key fob-style remotes provide 1,300 to 2,500 feet of range and are available in one- and five-button designs. The number of buttons corresponds to the number of optional functions the remote can control. If your vehicle has a power trunk release or you’d like us to integrate a power sliding door or motorized tailgate into the system, then a multi-button remote is a good choice.
Two-Way Remote Controls
Stepping up to two-way remote control provides the ability for the system to confirm that the commands you send have been received and executed by the system. These remotes use LEDs or a small display on the remote to provide you with this information. Our flagship solution, the Viper 5906V, includes a full-color OLED display with animated graphics. This remote provides up to 1 mile of range. When you press a button on the remote, the display will confirm that the vehicle has been locked, unlocked or remote started or the trunk has opened. If you are too far away, an “out of range” message is displayed.
Viper SmartStart Smartphone-based Remote Car Starters
If you park far away from your vehicle, then smartphone-based remote car starters and security systems are a wise choice. The Viper SmartStart system uses an interface module with a cellular radio to communicate with your remote starter. An app on your iPhone or Android-based smartphone is used to send commands to the vehicle. As long as the vehicle and your phone have cellular data access, you have complete control over the system.
If you have chosen security features for your convenience system, door and hood monitoring and shock sensor alerts are displayed on the phone.
Bluetooth Communication Options
Some of the newest remote starter systems we offer include Bluetooth communication. You can pair your smartphone with your vehicle and use the SmartStart app to send commands using Bluetooth. Unlike the cellular solution, it doesn’t cost anything to use Bluetooth, and you can keep your keychain lean and clutter-free.
