1.Preface
This document describes the requirements and operation of the Passive Entry System. However, this
document is especially for the Entry system ECU (acronym for Electric Control Unit) and the FOB.
The FOB consists the following functionality for passive access and active access:
• Door unlocking / locking (however, only for request by means of switch operation)
• Trunk unlocking / locking (however, only for request by means of switch operation)
• LF decoding
• RF encoding
• Communication data encryption (cryptograph, anti-collision, rolling code and stuff)
And the entry system ECU consists of the following functionality:
• Door unlocking / locking
• Trunk unlocking / locking
• Engine start (/ stop)
• LF encoding
• RF encoding
• Communication data encryption (cryptograph, anti-collision, rolling code and stuff)
• LF antenna unit control
• Communication with the node ECUs connected to the body bus (e.g. CAN, J1850, customer
dependent bus)
As a further function, both the FOB and the entry system ECU provides the following function:
• Learning mode for programming the manufacturing data and stuff
• Data locking and password protection
• Diagnostic (based upon ISO9141 if required)

2.Passsive Accsess Entry Functionality
A proximity sensor located on, for example the door handles, mirrors and trunk lid will be used for proximity
check if user is in neighborhood of the vehicle. The switch input will trigger for unlocking and open the
doors and trunk.
Figure 1
2.1.Door Unlocking
• User pull / touch the door handle (sensing of door handle switch).
• ECU sends LF-challenge via exterior antenna.
• FOB sends RF-response to the ECU.
• Door unlocking status is engaged.
• Doors are opened.

2.2.Engine Start
• User pushes / operate the engine start button / knob.
• ECU sends LF-challenge via interior antenna.
• FOB sends RF-response to the ECU.
• Immobilizer ECU receives and authorize the response.
• Engine controller ECU receives the authorization for engine strat.
• Start the engine.
Figure 3
2.3.Engine Stop
• User pushes / operate the engine stop button / knob.
• ECU communicates with the other ECU for engine start request.
• Engine controller ECU receives the request.
• Stop the engine

2.4.Door Locking (Push switch)
• User closes the door and pushes the switch (sensing of door locking switch).
• ECU sends LF-challenge via exterior antenna.
• FOB sends RF-response to the ECU.
• Door locking status is engaged.
• Doors are locked.
• (Indicates the door locking status by means of Flasher / Buzzer or stuff)

3.Active Access Entry Functionality
3.1.Door Unlocking
Same functionality as the current one.
3.2.Engine Start
This function does not effect on the active entry system.
3.3.Engine Stop
This function does not have influencei on the active entry system.
3.4.Door Locking
Same functionality as the current one.

5.System Characteristics
5.1.Antenna Areas
Exterior operating range: 0.8m to 1.5m
Interior operating range: Only inside the car
Number of the exterior exciters : max. 5 (min. 2), however, it is depending on the type of the
vehicle.
Number of the interior exciters: 1 (1-Dimmension) or 2 (2-Dimension required)
Figure 6
Exterior antenna functionality:
• Unlock / lock doors and trunk.
• Activate / deactivate alarm system.
• Activate immobilizer
Interior antenna functionality:
• Deactivate immobilizer
