Transponder Keys
Unlike flat metal keys that operate mechanically with cuts on the top and bottom transponder (a portmanteau of transmitter and responder) keys have an electronic microchip in their key heads. When inserted into a car that is equipped with transponder technology the chip sends low-level signals to a receiver that is located close to the ignition switch. This triggers the engine to begin, if it is programmed for it. Transponder chips are designed to protect cars from theft which is why a majority of modern vehicles have them.
Transponder technology was first utilized during World War II, when codes were transmitted over radio frequencies to determine whether incoming aircraft were friendly or hostile. General Motors created the first transponder key in 1985, for its Corvette. Since then, they've been commonplace on new cars and are also retrofitted to older models.
If you own a vehicle equipped with this kind of security system, make sure you always have an extra transponder card in your car, as it will only work in the event that the chip is scanned correctly. However, this isn't completely foolproof, and some people have found ways to trick the transponder system, including tutorials and kits that explain how to bypass it with electrical relays and wiring.
Proximity Keys
Proximity keys are the newest keyless entry innovations, which are now being used on a variety vehicles. They permit drivers to unlock their car by merely touching the door handle using the key fob they carry in their purse or pocket. The key fob then communicates with the car, disengaging the immobiliser and allowing for the engine to begin.
However, proximity key systems have some disadvantages. If the key fob is damaged or lost, it can't be used to start the car. A locksmith or a dealership will need to replace it, and this can be expensive. The fobs are also powered by batteries, meaning they will need to be replaced every now and then.
Another drawback of proximity key technology is that it disrupts the cause/effect cycle we're all familiar with when it comes to physical keys. In the case of a traditional lock, when you touch the lock and it opens, you'll know you have the key. You'll have to be within a specific distance to activate the proximity-sensing lock.
Despite these disadvantages proximity keys are a fantastic option for drivers who want to keep themselves from locking out of their vehicles. In case of emergency, keep an additional key on hand if you own a proximity key. If you need a replacement key, contact your local Pop-Alock to inquire about replacement costs and to receive a price for services.

A keyless entry system operates by transmitting encrypted signals the car's receiver. The receiver then detects the signal and then unlocks or starts the engine. It also can detect the presence of a driver and adjust vehicle settings to accommodate their preferences. It will automatically close the door, for instance the driver is carrying an item in his bag.
While the majority of keyless entry systems are secure, some of them are vulnerable to attack. For instance, a replay attack is where the original remote control signal is recorded, and then sent back to the device at a later date. This can be avoided by creating an algorithm for the keyless entry system to ensure that every transmission is different from previous ones.
Another benefit of a keyless entry system is that it doesn't require changing the locks after each tenant's turnover. skoda key fob not working is an expensive part of the process of transferring units and it is sensible for landlords to avoid this expense as much as possible.
