Specifications

Keycards are essential components
of any electronic locking solution.
SAFLOK offers three types of keycard
media – smart cards, memory cards
and magnetic stripe cards. Keycards
store information and contain com-
mands to communicate with a lock
and “tell” it how to function. Ensuring
that you use the right keycard that
supports your property’s security
requirements adds to the effectiveness
of your system.
SAFLOK is the only electronic locks
provider that offers multi-technology
lock capability as a standard feature.

SAFLOK keycards are proprietarily
encrypted to prohibit cloning.
Magnetic strip (magstripe) cards
Magnetic stripe cards contain three data
tracks onto which information can be
magnetically recorded and stored.
Memory cards
As its name implies, a memory card is
equipped with a memory chip to store
SAFLOK access records and lock codes.

mory card types.

Smart cards
A smart card is an integrated circuit
chip card with an electronically erasable
memory and a programmable ROM. It
has the ability to store more data than
memory cards. Facilities typically justify
the added cost of smart cards when it
is intended as a one-card solution for
several different applications.
A common use for smart cards is in stu-
dent housing facilities where the cards
are used as keycards, an ID card, as well
as an electronic purse.

Memory and smart cards
The use of memory and smart cards
in hotels are popular for the following
reasons:
· The keycards store card usage data
that enables employee tracking.
· Lock audit data can be downloaded to
the keycard making it unnecessary to
use a Lock Programmer & Interrogator
(LPI) terminal and probe.
· Lock error messages can also be
tagged onto the memory and smart
cards.
· Variable locks can programmed on the
keycards. The term variable key refers
to the number of different locks/rooms
that can be programmed onto one
keycard.
