Both ways, one touch
Audit trail up and new permissions down in a single update.

Communicators
Where keys check in. Audit up, permissions down, in one touch.
Communicators link CyberKeys to CyberAudit-Web. Each update downloads the key's audit trail and writes its new permissions, schedule and expiry at the same time.
Communicators are the interface between the hardware and CyberAudit-Web. A CyberKey only knows what it was last told, and only reports what it has done when it is next updated; communicators are where that happens: a desktop station in the office, a weatherised keyport at the site entrance, or a phone in the engineer's pocket.
When a key meets a communicator the transfer runs both ways at once. The key's timestamped log of every access event goes up to the software; new permissions, schedules and expiry dates come down to the key. Require regular updates with short expiries, and temporary access stays temporary.
Communicators connect to CyberAudit-Web over a local network, the internet or a computer's USB port, so they can sit wherever keys naturally pass: the depot, the gatehouse or the van.
What it does
Keypad authoriser
The AKG2R-01 networked authoriser keyport, in black powder-coated cast aluminium for installation indoors or out.
Expiry with teeth
Short expiries and regular updates keep a contractor's access as temporary as the contract.
Fits your network
Local network, internet or USB, placed wherever keys already pass.
Types
03.1
Desktop
USB stations update and charge keys from a computer. IR encoders program infrared keys. The WebStation 2 joins the network over Ethernet.
03.2
Remote
Authorizer keyports are weatherised units that update keys over a network connection with no computer on site. Web stations mount on a wall or sit on a desk. The Flex System keyport is a communicator and part of the Flex System for wired access control.
03.3
Mobile
CyberKey Blue and Air update over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi through the Cyber Access app, so permissions can change on the way to the job.
In the field
How do keys talk to the software?
Through a communicator. When a key makes contact, its audit trail is downloaded while new schedules, permissions and system information are written to it. Communicators reach CyberAudit-Web over a local network or securely over the internet.
Can a keyport go outside?
Yes. The AKG2R-01 keypad authoriser is weather-resistant, in powder-coated cast aluminium, for indoor and outdoor installation.
Why make keys come back to a communicator?
Because that is when expiries bite. Set keys to expire and require users to re-authorise at a keyport, and long-term access for temporary users simply runs out.
