The universal talent Electronic-Key-System EKS

What is an EKS? The Electronic-Key-System EKS is a transponder-based read/write system for industrial use. It is used primarily for electronic access control and access management as an alternative to the normal, password-based systems. Due to the combination of Electronic-Key and information memory, however, it offers much more than just a password replacement. As an open and freely configurable system with various data interfaces, EKS is of very universal application. ► EKS read/write station with key adapter for reading and writing the EKS Electronic-Key ► EKS Electronic-Key that...

Which EKS systems are available? n EKS Light EKS Light is optimized for quick, straightforward integration into a control system environment. For this purpose the Electronic-Key has a pre-defined data structure that is evaluated directly by the read-only station. With EKS Light you therefore procure not just the EKS hardware, but an integrated solution for managing user groups (who is allowed to access where?) and access levels (what is the user allowed to do?). For this purpose the data structure on the Electronic-Key and the evaluation electronics in the read-only station form a closed...

Which designs are available?■ Compact design For the compact design, the key adapter and the electronics are mounted in one housing. The Electronic-Key is inserted into the Electronic-Key adapter and is held in place by a spring clip. ► Electronic-Key adapter and electronics in one housing ► Very reliable retention of the Electronic-Key, even if there is heavy vibration ► Degree of protection: IP65, IP67 ► Robust housing for use in harsh environments With the modular design, the Electronic-Key adapter and electronics are mounted spatially separate. Due to the separation, the Electronic-Key...

How is the EKS Electronic-Key structured? The Electronic-Key contains an RFID transponder with memory chip. The data are transferred by induction without using any contacts. The Electronic-Key is operated without batteries. The Electronic-Keys have the shape of a robust tag and are available in various colors. ■ Data structure in the Electronic-Key memory Every Electronic-Key has a combined read/write and fixed-code memory with 116 bytes of E2PROM (programmable) plus 8 bytes of ROM (as unique serial number). As such it is possible, e.g., to save data elements such as the department,...

How do I program and manage the EKS Electronic-Keys? Basically the Electronic-Keys can be written and read using a read/write station. This can be done centrally on a programming station with the aid of a suitable software package, or on any read/write station from the application. The Electronic-Keys and the users can be managed either using the management software Electronic-Key-Manager EKM on a PC, or a custom solution. n rogramming station for writing data P to the Electronic-Keys In the simplest case the following is required to write data to EKS Electronic-Keys: Windows PC...
