Key Features
Automatic Engine Immobilisation
The Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ includes automatic immobilisation, which works via a Bluetooth-enabled ID tag. ‘Proximity’ - When the tag is out of range of the vehicle (5-10m), the immobiliser will arm, meaning your vehicle is always immobilised when not in use. When the ID tag is brought back into range, the immobiliser automatically disarms and allows the vehicle to be started. Automatic immobilisation prevents keyless theft methods such as relay attacks and key cloning.
The engine immobiliser can be configured in 4 different modes.
-
No Tag, No Start
(proximity-based immobilisation)
The most popular configuration for any Meta Trak immobiliser is the "No Tag, No Start" option, where the immobiliser arms and disarms automatically based on the proximity of the Meta Trak ID tag. After the vehicle's ignition is switched off, the system waits for the Meta Trak ID tag to go out of range and then arms the engine immobiliser. The immobiliser disarms when the ID tag is in close proximity, allowing for seamless vehicle startup without requiring any user interaction.
No Tag, ONE Start
(Concerns surrounding forced entry)
The "No Tag, One Start" configuration from Meta Trak allows the vehicle to be started once without the Meta Trak ID tag. This can prevent violent thieves from entering your home to force you to start the vehicle. If the vehicle is stolen, the immobiliser prevents a second start without the ID tag, helping to recover the vehicle away from your home.
Button Press
(Automatic arming, manual disarming)
Meta Trak's 'Button Press' configuration automatically arms the engine immobiliser 60 seconds after the vehicle's ignition is turned off. To disarm, the driver needs to press the central button on the Meta Trak ID tag. The immobiliser doesn't rely on the ID tag's proximity and can be disarmed from a distance on approach. A successful disarm is indicated by 6 rapid flashes of the red LED on the Meta Trak ID tag. This configuration is rare but useful in situations where there is difficulty creating enough distance between the ID tag and the vehicle's system for reliable system arming. Also used as extra security as a physical input is needed for disarming.
Remote Immobilisation Only
(immobilisation can only be done remotely)
In this setup, the immobiliser can only be armed and disarmed remotely using the Meta Trak mobile app or web-based portal. The Meta Trak ID tag is not needed for the immobiliser and there is no automatic immobilisation. The immobilisation of the vehicle is done manually but remotely.
To arm the immobiliser, the customer uses the Meta Trak customer app to send a remote immobiliser arm/block command. To disarm the immobiliser, they simply send a disarm/unblock command.
If a vehicle is remotely immobilised, it cannot be started unless an unblock command is sent from a Meta Trak platform. This setup is commonly used for fleet tracking systems paired with an engine immobiliser.
It's common among business fleet operators and vehicle leasing companies, enabling them to immobilise their vehicles remotely in case of non-payment from customers. It's also used by plant machinery hiring businesses to protect vehicles from theft.
By default your system is normally set-up for No Tag, No Start/Proximity-based immobilisation but any of the other configurations can be selected on the day of installation. Additionally, you opt to change your immobilisers configuration mode at any time by contact Meta Trak in which they will send the change remotely over the air to your system.
Remote Engine Immobilisation - DEADLOCK Feature
The Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ system includes Meta Trak's DEADLOCK feature. this feature allows you to remotely immobilise your vehicle from your smartphone or via Meta Trak’s web portal. Deadlocking your vehicle gives you complete control and overrides the ID tags, preventing the vehicle from being started even if the key and authorised ID tag are stolen. This feature is useful when you're away from your vehicle and have left the key and ID tags at home or for extra security on a daily basis. Additionally, Meta Trak can remotely immobilise your vehicle on your behalf in the event of theft.
In the interest of safety, both for the vehicle driver and other road users - Remote immobilisation commands can only be sent once the vehicle’s ignition has been switched off.
Automatic Driver Recognition
The Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ uses a small battery-operated ID tag that you can attach to your vehicle keys for driver recognition. This ID tag emits a signal that the tracker looks to find. When the vehicle's ignition is switched on, the system checks for the ID tag. If the ID tag is found, everything is in order, indicating that the authorised driver is present. If the system fails to see the ID tag, an alert is sent to the secure operating centre, and a staff member will contact you directly by phone to establish whether a theft has occurred. Meta Trak’s automatic driver recognition ID tags communicate with the system using Bluetooth Low Energy technology. Their battery life is around 12-18 months before the battery needs to be replaced.
Wireless Link Architecture
The Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ tracking device can communicate with the immobilisers wirelessly via a Bluetooth low-energy link. Unlike most other competing systems that hardwire their tracking unit and immobiliser together, Meta Trak's Wireless Link Architecture is far more secure, especially if thieves are actively looking for the system. While tracking units can be fitted in nearly all areas of a vehicle, immobilisers cannot. There are very few immobilisation points on a given vehicle to connect an immobiliser in order to stop the vehicle from starting. This means that if the tracking unit is hardwired to the immobiliser, there are now very few locations where the tracking unit may be installed.
Meta Trak’s Wireless Link Architecture technology included with the Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ system enables the tracking unit to be installed away from the immobiliser to avoid detection or tracing of connected wiring if those very few immobilisation points are explored by thieves. Additionally, Meta Trak's wireless link technology enables the communication of the ignition status from the immobiliser/vehicle to be wirelessly sent to the tracking unit. This allows for a more covert installation of the tracking unit itself, as only the positive and negative wires of the tracking unit need to be connected. This makes it possible to mount the tracking unit in otherwise difficult-to-reach areas of the vehicle where ignition wiring may be sparse or non-existent.
Meta Trak’s Wireless Link Architecture technology ultimately aids in the covertness and security of your installation, giving you a better chance of recovery in the event of theft.
OBD Port Immobiliser
In the theft method, known as the OBD attack/CAN Injection, thieves take control of your vehicle's electronic systems via the OBD port to start and steal your vehicle without the need for its key or key signal.
To prevent this, the Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ includes a dual-circuit OBD port immobiliser. The immobiliser prevents unauthorised access to your vehicle's OBD port to prevent software-enabled theft; this is achieved by electronically cutting the OBD Port off from the vehicle’s ECU, thus preventing theft via OBD attack/CAN injection. With the OBD Port in a blocked state, thieves are unable to communicate with the vehicle using their specialist digital tools, therefore preventing the theft of the vehicle.
Your vehicle's OBD port can easily be unblocked and re-blocked remotely over the air via the Meta Trak customer app to allow authorised service personnel access to your vehicle’s electrotonic systems.
Secondary Wireless Backup Tracking Device
The Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ security system includes a secondary backup tracking device, the Meta Tark Pulsar. This wireless, battery-powered tracker includes a 3-year service plan and, depending on usage, up to 3 years of battery life. It’s purpose in this Multi-point security system is to provide a backup capability in the event that the main hardwired tracking device is lost during prolonged theft recovery efforts or other extreme circumstances. In this case, Meta Trak would switch to the secondary tracking device to continue recovery operations.
The secondary wireless backup device stays in sleep mode almost all the time and remains undetectable even when specialist tools are used to locate it. The Pulsar device is small, covert, and magnetically mountable. It can be installed in locations not accessible for hardwired products, enabling an even more covert installation and mounting positions such as the vehicle undersides to avoid detection.
The secondary wireless backup tracking device is ONLY used as a backup in this application. Although the product has its own dedicated mobile app, no interaction with it or its individual app is necessary. It’s not recommended to change any in-app settings as the device is already preconfigured for maximum service life from the factory.

General Features
Secure Control Room Monitoring
The Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ system is connected to Meta Trak’s manned 24/7/365 Secure Operating Centre. If the system generates any alerts, a member of staff will call the number associated with your account to ascertain whether or not a theft has taken place. If you confirm that the vehicle has been stolen, the monitoring team will liaise with local police forces and direct them to the vehicle using positioning data from the system. This service is available throughout the UK and Europe.
Live Tracking
The Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ and Meta Trak’s customer app allow you to track your vehicle's location in real time. The system can also log your journeys for up to one year and score them by measuring driving behaviour data.
Multiple Positioning Technologies
The Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ uses the latest GNSS receiver technology and multiple tracking technologies, including data from the GPS, Galileo, and GLONASS satellite constellations as well as GSM cell-based positioning. This provides greater resistance to jamming attempts.
Multi Network-Roaming Connectivity
The Meta Trak S5 DEADLOCK PRO+ uses the latest quad band modem and globally roaming SIM to ensure optimal network connection for communications.
