C1-PILOT
Smart access for every machine.
C1-Pilot is a rugged, factory-installable access control keypad that replaces universal keys with user-specific PINs. Built for off-highway equipment and engineered for harsh environments—from dusty jobsites to outdoor yards—it gives fleets and OEMs a simple, reliable way to control who can start what. With secure Bluetooth setup, role-based permissions, and OTA updates, C1-Pilot brings modern access control to machines that were never designed for it.




Features
-
USER-LEVEL ACCESS CONTROL
Assign individual PINs instead of shared metal keys. Create roles, manage permissions, and track every start event for clean operator accountability.
-
MICROTHEFT PREVENTION
Eliminates universal keys and unauthorized operation. Reduce side jobs, after-hours use, and safety risks by ensuring only approved users can start the machine.
-
SECURE CONNECTIVITY
Encrypted Bluetooth for local setup and configuration, plus OTA firmware and configuration updates to keep access policies current across the fleet.
-
RUGGED HARDWARE
IP67-rated, UV-resistant, and vibration-tested to withstand job-site abuse. Designed to match the durability expectations of modern off-highway equipment.
-
FLEET-READY INTEGRATION
Connect C1-Pilot to your telematics platform to combine access logs with machine data—who used it, where, and for how long.
-
FAST INSTALL OR FACTORY OPTION
Compact footprint and flexible mounting make C1-Pilot simple to install on existing equipment or integrate as a factory option on new models.
