Enable/Disable

Total control.
From anywhere.

Remote enable/disable for heavy-duty vehicles and equipment. After-hours use, a missed rental payment, a suspected theft: shut the machine down from your phone before a loss turns into a claim.

You don't need a big fleet. Most customers run 20 to 50 vehicles, and plenty run fewer.

Today's realities on the jobsite

Knowing where it went isn't the same as stopping it.

Jobsite theft bleeds the construction industry. Idle machines walk off after hours, and recovery is slow and rarely complete. A tracker tells you where the excavator went. It doesn't stop it from going.

Rental gear keeps running after the agreement ends. Unpaid use and off-site misuse quietly eat the margin you can't see, and chasing it means sending someone out to a site to have a conversation nobody wants to have.

Once an asset is moving, you're only reacting. Real control means shutting it down before the loss, not tracing it after. That's the difference between a recovery effort and a machine that simply never left.

How it works

It's a starter interrupt, not a kill switch.

An installer wires the interrupt into the starter circuit. After that, the machine answers to your dashboard.

When you disable it, the next person to turn the key gets nothing, and it stays that way until you re-enable it.

  • Disable from the web dashboard or the mobile app
  • The machine won't crank until you re-enable it
  • Nobody on site can override it by asking the right person
  • Re-enable in a tap once the payment lands or the shift starts
  • Every enable and disable is recorded against the asset
  • Works alongside live location, geofences, and ignition alerts

It won't cut a machine that's running. Enable/Disable blocks the next start, and that's on purpose.

Killing power to a loaded excavator or a truck in traffic would create a much worse problem than the one you're solving.

The AirIQ solution

One solution. Six reasons operators choose it.

Remote enable/disable

Shut a vehicle or machine down remotely for missed payments, after-hours use, or theft.

Manage in your dashboard

Control access from anywhere. No on-site dispatch, no wasted trips. iOS and Android.

High-value asset tracking

Live location on every high-value asset, so you always know where each one is.

Instant ignition alerts

Know the moment a vehicle or machine powers on, whether it's expected or not.

Geofencing

Flag equipment the moment it leaves an approved jobsite or designated area.

Less operational downtime

Manage access remotely instead of dispatching staff: fewer trips, more uptime.

Where it pays for itself

Rental operations, without the recovery trip.

Renting out heavy equipment means trusting that it comes back, and that the invoice gets paid. Enable/Disable turns both of those into something you control from the office.

  • Agreement ends and the machine stays out? Disable it where it sits
  • Payment doesn't clear? The next start doesn't happen
  • Customer settles up? Re-enable before you've hung up the phone
  • Equipment leaves the approved site? A geofence alert lands first
  • No truck, no driver, no confrontation on someone else's jobsite
The shape of it

The machine does the asking.

Chasing an unpaid rental usually means a phone call, then a second phone call, then sending someone out. Every step costs more than the invoice is worth, which is exactly why operators stop chasing.

When the machine won't start until the account is current, the conversation happens on its own, and it happens the same day.

Enable/Disable questions

What operators ask before they wire it in.

What does Enable/Disable actually do?
It's a starter interrupt. An installer wires it into the starter circuit, and from then on you can disable the machine from your dashboard. Once it's disabled, turning the key does nothing. It stays that way until you re-enable it, so nobody on site can undo it by finding the right person to ask.
Does it shut down a vehicle that's already running?
No, and that's deliberate. Enable/Disable blocks the next start. It doesn't cut power to a machine that's moving or mid-lift, because doing that to a loaded excavator or a truck in traffic would create a far worse problem than the one you're solving.
What hardware does it need?
It's the IQ-Wired 68, the hardwired tracker in the AirIQ line that carries remote starter disable. It needs a professional install because the interrupt has to be wired into the starter circuit properly. See IQ-Wired 68 for the full spec.
What if the machine is out of cellular coverage?
The command travels over the cellular network, so an asset sitting in a dead zone gets it when it reconnects. For equipment that lives in genuinely remote places, that's worth planning around: geofence and ignition alerts tell you something's happening, and the disable lands as soon as the device is back in coverage.
How does this work for rental operations?
It's the use case the solution was built around. When a rental agreement ends or a payment doesn't come through, you disable the machine from the office instead of sending someone to go get it. When the customer settles up, you re-enable it in a tap. No recovery trip, no awkward conversation on a jobsite.
Is there a contract?
No. Like everything AirIQ sells, this is month-to-month with no long-term contract and no early-termination fee.
