The document describes the system and functionality of an Opel immobilizer for vehicles. It uses radio frequency transmission between a transponder in the key and a control unit to verify the key and allow engine start. If verification is successful, the engine is released for a start. Technical specifications of the immobilizer like frequency, range, and power supply are also provided.

System description of the Opel Immobilizer 2nd Generation


Redesign

The immobilizer 2nd generation prevents drive away car theft powered by its
own engine without having a valid key. It uses an inductive data transmission
between transponder (mounted inside the key) and the control unit. This data
link is working with a carrier frequency of 125 kHz and uses amplitude
modulation for transmitting data to the transponder. For the direction from the
transponder to the control unit damping modulation with pulse duration coding
is used.

Functional description

After switching on the ignition the immobilizer transmits a random number to


the transponder. It calculates a result and transmits it back to the immobilizer.
The result is checked and if it is correct, the engine will be released. After that,
the immobilizer is switched off until another start is attempted. The longest
period for transmitting 125 kHz is 3 seconds.

Typical usage pattern (for Europe only)


15 operations in 24 hours with a transmission duration of 2 seconds.
→ total transmission duration of 1.25 seconds within 1 hour

Transmitter ON 1.25 seconds / hour

Transmitter OFF 3598.75 seconds / hour

Duty Cycle: TON / T (ON+OFF) x 100% = 1.25 / 3,600 x 100 % = 0.03 %
