Police Patrol K9 - Professional Handler
This is the most common configuration for police agencies across the country. By
default the system comes programmed to operate in this fashion.
Features
The K9 systems will automatically turn on and monitor for temperature whenever
the vehicle arrives at a destination. If the temperature inside the vehicle reaches the
start temperature, the engine will start allowing the AC to operate. If the vehicle
reaches the alert temperature, the vehicles horn will honk and an alert message will
be sent to the LCD remote. If the optional window module is installed, the win-
dows will roll down during hot temperature alert. If the optional window fan is in-
stalled, the windows fan will turn on during hot temperature alert. The remote can
also be used to manually turn on/off the car alarm and lock and unlock the doors. If
the door pop kit is installed the LCD or 1way remote can be used to pop the door.
Aux1 can be wired with an optional relay to pop the trunk open.
Another feature is the starter disable/starter anti-grind which requires the connec-
tion of the included relay and will disable the vehicle from being started when the
security alarm is active and will also prevent the starter from grinding if the vehicle
is
“auto-started” and the user turns the ignition key to the start position.
Note, police K9 vehicles normally have fixed inserts and window screens that
would prevent the dog from jumping out of the window and would also keep the
vehicle secure from intrusion.
Privately Owned Vehicle -Dog Enthusiast)
This is the most common configuration for users of privately owned vehicles that
have a canine companion travel with them. The default settings are typically
changed in branch programming to have manual K9 system activation selected.
Features
Consumer installations can be slightly different in nature as most consumers do not
want windows to roll down automatically as this could put their canine at risk of
injury or their vehicle at risk of unlawful entry. This simply means that an optional
window drop module would not be installed on the vehicle. The more likely option
would be the bidirectional window controller that can be connected to the aux out-
puts to remotely roll up and down the windows. Many consumer vehicles are
equipped with additional features such as automatic door sliders and rear hatch or
trunk pops that can also be connected to one of the three aux outputs.
