Remotes

The new Saab cars do not use traditional keys made of metal for security. Instead, they employ an immobilizer system based on the recognition of a unique chip built into every key. This is the reason a particular type of key is required to unlock the car and insert it into the ignition. This is one of the primary reasons for a wise Saab owner to always have a spare key in the car.

The classic metal keys are simple to duplicate but the real issue is that the electronic component of a key-fob has to be matched with a specific car to allow the key to function. This process is carried out within the car's computer modules which are known as CIM (Column Integration Module) or TWICE (Theft Warning Integrated Central Electronics).

It is a part of the immobilizer to prevent thieves from using stolen car key to start the car. The transponder signals from the key are picked up by the receiver that is located near the ignition. This receiver decodes the serial numbers of the transmission. If the numbers match the car's serial number, it starts. The majority of cars built in the last two decades use transponder keys.

They are also used on airplanes. Air traffic control makes use of these to identify friendly aircraft with a coded signal called IFF (Identification friend or foe). Certain aircrafts are equipped mode C or mode S transponders which transmit identifying codes and altitude information to ATC. They also include systems for collision avoidance.
