Pandora · Alarms & Immobilisers
Thatcham Category 1 alarm, immobiliser and GPS tracker in one system.
The Smart Pro is Pandora's flagship connected security system. It combines a Thatcham Category 1 alarm and immobiliser with 4G and GPS, so you can see where your car is, get instant alerts and control the system from your phone wherever you are. Bluetooth ID tags stop key cloning and relay attacks, and you keep using your factory key.
Key Features
Certified to Thatcham Category 1 (certificate TSC230), the top category for a combined alarm and immobiliser and the one UK insurers recognise.
A built-in 4G modem and GPS/GLONASS receiver let you see where the car is and get alerts anywhere with mobile signal, not just within Bluetooth range.
Bluetooth 5.0 ID tags with 128-bit dialogue encryption. Without a valid tag the car won't drive, even with a cloned key or a relay device.
Use the Pandora Connect app (iOS & Android) or the desktop app to arm and disarm, adjust or switch off sensors, and check the system's status.
Check engine temperature, fuel level and battery voltage remotely (vehicle-dependent).
A 3D accelerometer detects impacts, tilting and movement, the signs of a break-in, jacking or tow-away.
The siren keeps sounding even if a thief cuts the car's battery.
If the car is taken by force, you can shut it down safely by calling the system and entering your secret code.
How It Works
While the car is armed, sensors monitor for entry, movement, tilting and impacts.
Any trigger sounds the battery-backed siren and sends an alert to your phone over 4G.
See the car's live GPS location in the app. Without your tag, the immobiliser keeps it from being driven.

FAQ
The first 6 months of Pandora's GSM service are included. After that, a subscription is needed for 4G app control, calls and texts. Pandora's current plans are £70 for 6 months or £125 for 12 months.
Yes. The built-in GPS/GLONASS receiver shows the car's location in the Pandora app, and the 4G connection sends alerts wherever there's mobile signal. It isn't a monitored Thatcham S5/S7 tracker with a 24/7 control room, though. For that, add a Meta Trak tracker.
