iButton Electronic Key Fob

This electric key contains a chip with a globally unique and unchangeable serial number so every person can be assigned a unique key. With this technology you can set up a simple and efficient access system for your home or business, and at a great price!

How it works:

When the electric key is put to the key-reader, a signal is sent. The electric key reader can be connected to a 1-Wire device, such as Loxone’s 1-Wire Extension.

Usage:

Through seamless integration with the Loxone Configuration Software, you can easily change access rights at different times of day or link access to other functions. (e.g.: When you get home in the evenings and put your electric key to the reader: the door unlocks, the hall and living rooms lights turn on, and your favourite music starts playing. Your imagination is the only limit!

This solution also lends itself perfectly to many other uses, for example security in a machine room. Goal: Only authorised workers can operate certain machines. The machine is activated when an authorised member of staff puts their electric key in the reader. The electric key is then held in the reader by the magnet.
At the Loxone headquarters in Austria we use this system very successfully in our building.
