The KeyPad
The KeyAdvantage KeyPad is an electronic key that is used to access the KeyAdvantage KeyBox. A KeyPad
is programmed daily when a user places it on the KeyAdvantage programming base to check it out. During
checkout, the KeyPad is programmed with the permissions and access hours assigned to the user in the
KeyAdvantage software. These permissions determine which KeyBoxes the KeyPad can open, when KeyBoxes
can be opened, and how many can be opened during their shift.
When the KeyPad accesses a KeyBox, the KeyPad records:
•
Who took the vehicle keys.
•
Which KeyBox was opened.
•
Which vehicle keys were taken.
•
When the vehicle keys were taken.
•
Why the vehicle keys were taken.
•
How long a KeyTag was out of the KeyBox.
Physical Characteristics
•
The KeyPad has an infrared interface on the top of the KeyPad which is used to communicate with the
KeyBox and programming base.
•
The KeyPad has a backlight to easily view the display in outside, evening lighting conditions.
•
The KeyPad has audible and visual feedback for errors, low batteries, button presses, and function
completion.
•
The KeyPad uses (2) AAA alkaline batteries as its main power source. When the batteries are low, the
KeyPad emits two short buzzes and displays a low battery warning message. If the batteries in the
KeyPad are removed and replaced, an internal lithium battery operates as a backup so that the KeyPad's
memory and functionality are not impacted.
