Carbon Car Systems is your choice for remote car start experts in Sydney, Australia. A remote starter lets you start your car so the AC or heating system can make it more comfortable inside – without you having to step outside. All you do is press a button on a remote control, or use the DroneMobile app on your smartphone, and the remote starter does the rest.
Who wouldn’t want the engine warmed up and vehicle interior heated or cooled off before getting to the car?
System Options
There are many different remote car starter control options. Some are very simple and easy to use, and some offer incredible range and advanced features. Let’s look at some of the popular options.
Factory key fob – In many vehicles, we can install an interface that will allow you to remote start your vehicle by simply pressing the Lock button on the factory key fob. This means there are no extra remotes to carry. However, your range is limited to whatever the vehicle manufacturer provided – and that often isn’t very far.- Compustar remotes – Compustar is our brand of choice for premium remote car starter systems. They offer a broad range of remote controls, from simple one-button remotes that work up to 250 meters away to an incredible water-resistant unit that features an LCD screen and almost 5 kilometers of range.
- DroneMobile – Using a cellular interface and a software app on your smartphone, you can lock, unlock or remote start your car from anywhere that you have a cellular data connection.
Range extension – Some vehicles, like the Jeep Grand Cherokee, come from the factory with a remote starter. In vehicles like that, our Compustar remote car starters can act as a long-range remote control, giving you all the range you could ever want.
Safety Features
Ensuring that your vehicle starts safely is our top priority. Before the vehicle responds to a start request from your remote, several conditions have to be met to ensure there is no possibility of an accident occurring. Some of the many systems that we monitor include:
- Bonnet pin – We can install a physical switch on the hood so the remote starter can verify that it is closed. This ensures nobody is working on the engine when the vehicle starts!
Hand brake – For both standard and automatic transmission vehicles, setting the parking brake properly ensures the vehicle and objects surrounding it are safe.- Locked doors – The vehicle’s doors are locked to ensure that nobody enters the vehicle until you unlock it. Even if someone did get in, as soon as they press the foot brake to put the car into gear, the engine will instantly shut down.
- Engine speed – In the unlikely event that the engine RPM increases, the remote start system will shut it down. The system also uses this engine speed information to ensure the crank time during start-up is set perfectly.
