Abstract:

A system and method for remotely signaling a vehicle. The system comprises a pager unit for receiving a wireless communication and for generating a first signal in response to receiving the wireless communication, the pager unit being located in the vehicle. The wireless communication is transmitted by a transmitter to a central switching unit, and from the central switching unit, the wireless communication is relayed through a satellite to the pager unit. The system also comprises a tripping circuit, responsive to the first signal, for generating a second signal, and a switch, responsive to the second signal, for causing an action in the vehicle. The method comprises transmitting a signal by the transmitter to the central switching unit. The signal includes a remote location pager number corresponding to the pager unit and a predetermined security code. The method further comprises transmitting the signal by the central switching unit, satellite relaying the signal from the central switching unit to the pager unit, receiving the signal by the pager unit, and tripping a switch in response to receiving the signal, thereby causing an action in the vehicle.
