Some vehicles have a master key or keys that are required to enable programming to take place when these master keys are lost or not passed on to the new owner the vehicle requires connecting to a diagnostic tester held only by the vehicle manufacturers dealer, until the launch of the AD100Pro. Most vehicles require any additional key to be programmed using a diagnostic tester. The inclusion of transponders into vehicle keys means that whenever a new key is required the new keys require programming into the vehicle ECU memory. If the correct key is presented the vehicle immobiliser system communicates with the vehicle ECU (electronic control unit) and allows the vehicle engine to be started. When the keys are presented to the ignition switch the transponder communicates with an aerial around the ignition switch and identifies it as the correct key for the vehicle.


This involves the inclusion of a small transponder chip placed inside the ignition keys. Since approximately 1996 vehicle manufacturers have increased the security of their vehicles by the introduction of transponder vehicle keys.
