    10.4 SEARCHES 10.4.1 SEARCHES BY LOCK MANUFACTURER (STANDARD AREAS) This screen is the most versatile because it allows us to make different types of searches according to the criteria we choose. We are going to define the different types of searches we can perform. Blank key reference Lock manufacturer Lock system search...
  • Page 35 Case 2: Define a JMA key blank and see, which the series, related to that key is. When we enter or select a JMA key reference, the system makes an automatic search. The search is made by intro- ducing the name into the box corresponding to the JMA blank key reference, as we type the letters, the system will filter the possible manufacturers with those letters.
  • Page 36 Case 4: Directly search for a file we want to use for machining. This search for the series that contain the exact file we have introduced in the file search box. In the search by lock system, we should press the search button (F) to make the search and later press the erase button (D) to make any other search with another word.
  • Page 37: Search By Automation, By Type, By Brand, Model And Year (Automation Area)

    10.4.2 SEARCH BY AUTOMATION, BY TYPE, BY BRAND, MODEL AND YEAR (AUTOMATION AREA) This search allows us to know the JMA key model used by an automation vehicle model (Car, Truck or Motorbike), in many cases the client can come with the original key of the vehicle and identifying the profile can be a difficult task, we can simply see which JMA key model is compatible with that model of automobile by the year of construction of that model.
  • Page 38: Search For Keys By Equivalents With Another Manufacturer (Equivalents Area)

    This section of the program allows us to introduce references of keys that are not JMA references and will tell us the JMA equivalent and on the other hand it will give tell us if the key can be cut or not in the Multicode.
  • Page 39: Cutting Information (File)

    Once the program is connected to the Multicode in the JMAKeyPro program, we have access to see the technical information for cutting the key. If there is no link with the Multicode machine, this information is not accessible. We can differentiate the files into two families, according to the attaching area and the cutting tool to be used, therefore,...
  • Page 40 On one hand we have the information part (I) related to the key, the name of the file, the information of the cutting of the key in profile. On the other hand, we have the code introduced, in this case 15000 and the biting related to this code 32248. On another hand, we have essential information (J) about the cutter, feeler and jaw for this key, initially they are the standards already set in the machine.
  • Page 41 Height Control: Normal or Self-adjust cutting The Multicode machine is already adjusted, and does not need to obtain a height reference each time that a toothed key is machined. As the reference of the key is given by its blade and this is already calibrated, usually a...
  • Page 42 2) Height for machining: Theoretical or Read Height As commented in the previous section, once a key has been read we have the values of the previously read keys. The program allows us to cut the key with the theoretical “original” values marked by the manufacturer or to the contrary cut the key with the read height values, with the error that this involves, but in old locks that are already vitiated, this could be the best option.
