Looks like the update is getting closer and it looks like they are open for volunteer testers for those who want to get their hands on it early.. Some of the new security features look promising, if they can get them working reliably.

If you own a Vehicle that uses the TaZer DT, please reach out to us as we would love to get your feedback on these features, as well as, any reports on found bugs so we can fix them before we officially launch this firmware and then implement these updates to our other TaZer models
List of Pin Lock Feature Updates :
Security/PIN lock menu added. Choices include:
• Set/Clear PIN – allows you to set a new PIN (if unlocked) or clear the PIN
• Enable/Disable PIN – allows a quick disable without having to clear and then re-set PIN
• PedalDisable – a “high security parking” mode where you can pre-disable the gas pedal, EVEN IF THE TAZER IS REMOVED, can toggle on and off. Automatically re-enabled when PIN is entered
• PIN Brakes – choose if the 4 brakes will lock when PIN triggered and vehicle is stopped
• PIN Horn – choose if the horn is to blow in a semi-random pattern when PIN is triggered
• PIN Lights – choose if the light show starts when the PIN is triggered
• AccelKill – choose if the accelerator pedal is disabled when PIN is triggered (reference the video we recently made)
• VTATrig – choose if the factory alarm system triggers the RF Hub to lock and gas pedal to be
disabled
• RFHTrig – choose if an attempt to pair a new key triggers the RF hob to lock and accelerator
pedal to be disabled
• PIN Clear Time – choose if it should take 10 or 60 minutes to clear a forgotten PIN
Enhancements to PIN locking functionality:
• PIN displays on cluster as it is being entered (in Audio menu), with 2 second timeout or cruise on/off press to start over
• PIN countdown toggles the turn signal indicators and audible “clicks” as it counts down
• PIN countdown is 40 seconds at initial start-up; when 10 seconds left a “keyfob not detected”
message and audible chime start as a final warning. At 5 seconds left, gas pedal is disabled, when 0 seconds left the brakes, lights, and horn are triggered. If shifted out of park during the countdown, all functions are triggered immediately
• PIN countdown in CARJACK mode starts when the vehicle starts moving; it lasts 20 seconds. At the 10 second mark the “keyfob not detected” message and warning chime start. At 5 seconds left the accelerator pedal is disabled. At 0 seconds left or when the car stops moving the brakes, lights and horn are triggered
• Entering the PIN at any time after being triggered clears all.
NEW FEATURE:
Remote Start (see our recent video on it)
• Remote start can be used back to back starts indefinitely (stock limit is 2 starts)
• Menu item added for “RemRestart” which will have the Tazer re-start the truck when remote
starts times out after its 15 minute timer elapsed
Bug Fixes and improvements:
• Changed EVIC display algorithm for better control for all radios, especially with Uconnect 5
• Fixed Drive Mode memory
• Fixed ESS last state memory
• Fixed brake lights when using Brake Hold
• Fixed 0-30 & 0-60 timer
• Stopped most functions during PIN countdown and until unlocked
• Disabled in-motion setting on Uconnect 5 as it is not supported by the radio and caused
problems with TurnCam and ParkCam
• Changed dash indication when light show running for slight improvement in light show speed
• Changed Algorithm for turning off or changing light shows to be much faster
• Fixed an issue with AutoPark disable in some cases
• Major improvement in CAN read/write robustness makes all functions more stable
