November 10, 2004—Videx’s new CyberLock electronic padlocks bring key control and an audit trail of every opening to padlocks. A standard padlock can be quickly converted into a full-functioning access control system by replacing its mechanical cylinder with a CyberLock electronic cylinder. New padlocks with the electronic cylinders pre-installed are also available.
This electronic padlock system consists of the pick-proof CyberLock cylinder in a padlock, a CyberKey that cannot be duplicated, and CyberAudit access control software. Access privileges and battery power are located in the key. A key can be programmed to restrict each authorized user’s access to specific padlocks on pre-selected days and times.
Each time the CyberKey opens a padlock, a record of the user ID, date, and time is stored in both the lock and the key. A key can be set to automatically expire within minutes, hours, days, months, even shift-by-shift, depending on the specific task that has been assigned to the user.
CyberLock padlocks are ideal for outdoor applications such as securing equipment and gated areas at remote sites. In addition to padlocks, CyberLock cylinders can be installed on safes, server cabinets, and doors throughout entire facilities. For more information visit Videx or call 541/758-0521.
